Home remodeling for Buffalo Grove homeowners

Buffalo Grove spans Cook and Lake counties, and much of its housing was built in subdivisions in the decades after the village incorporated in 1958. Homes from those decades often benefit from more open kitchens, larger primary baths and updated finishes. 123 Remodeling is a Chicago-based design-build firm in business since 2008, with a North Shore office in Northfield. Our designers and licensed contractors take your project from first design to final walkthrough, so you work with one company from start to finish.

We wanted to get rid of the tub and go with a new island for our kitchen, and after 123 Remodeling presentation and professional estimate, I decided to go with them. I was impressed by their dedication to work. They guided us from start to finish and were so nice. The project manager let us select everything that we wanted and guided us during shopping. The tub installation took about a day and a half, and the installers were professional and cleaned the whole place after work was done. The kitchen island installation took about 3 days and I'm 100% satisfied. Georgene A., Buffalo Grove, IL. Rated 4.8 by our customers. Read more reviews.

Home remodeling questions

Can you provide a cost estimate for my project?

Yes, and it’s free. We’ll visit your home to measure the space and discuss your needs and budget, then send an estimate with budget ranges for each stage of the renovation.

What does your design fee cover?

The design fee covers the plans and renderings our staff prepares for your project, with unlimited design revisions until you’re happy with the result. It’s included in your final contract total, so it isn’t an added expense. Once the design is final, we move on to the next steps: material selection, shopping, permits and, finally, construction.

Do I need an interior designer for home remodeling?

If you want your home to be as beautiful as it is functional, a designer’s input is a must. Our in-house interior designers are part of our design-build process, and if you’d like to bring your own designer, we can work with them.

Do you need a permit to remodel a home in Buffalo Grove?

It depends on the work. Cosmetic updates may not need one, but plumbing, electrical and structural changes usually do. Permits in Buffalo Grove go through the local building department, and we handle them as part of your project. If your home is in a condo or homeowners association, its board may also need to approve the work.
