Kitchen Remodeling, Bathroom Remodeling and Walk-In Showers in Clarendon Hills

Clarendon Hills is a small village between Hinsdale and Westmont with a compact downtown around its Metra stop and a mix of older homes and newer builds. Older Clarendon Hills homes have smaller kitchens and one or two baths that were never meant for today's families.

Kitchens in Clarendon Hills

Clarendon Hills kitchens usually need smart space planning — a wall removed, a peninsula or small island added, and cabinets to the ceiling for storage. Our kitchen remodeling service in Clarendon Hills covers the full job, including new cabinets and stone countertops.

Bathrooms in Clarendon Hills

In Clarendon Hills a common project is rebuilding the one main hall bath, or adding a real primary bath during a larger renovation. See our bathroom remodeling page for Clarendon Hills, or read about tub-to-shower conversions and walk-in showers.

Suburban remodels in Clarendon Hills usually give us room to work — driveway space for deliveries and a garage or side yard for staging — which keeps the house cleaner and the schedule tighter.

We also work in nearby Hinsdale, Darien, Downers Grove and Western Springs.

Remodeling homes in DuPage County and the west suburbs

Homes in DuPage County and the nearby west suburbs span more than a century of building. Near the historic downtowns of towns like Hinsdale, Glen Ellyn, Elmhurst, Wheaton, Western Springs and La Grange, many houses were built before 1940, with plaster walls, older wiring and kitchens at the back of the house. Postwar neighborhoods in Downers Grove, Darien and Clarendon Hills are full of ranches and split-levels. And much of Naperville, Oak Brook and Burr Ridge was built between the 1970s and the 2000s, with larger rooms and builder-grade finishes now ready for an update.

Each era brings its own remodeling questions. Older homes need careful work around plaster, trim and old plumbing. Mid-century homes often have walls between the kitchen and living areas that owners want gone. Newer homes usually have a good layout and finishes that simply look dated. We plan for whichever one you have.

Planning a kitchen remodel in Clarendon Hills: backsplash, flooring and lighting

Backsplash tile is where a kitchen gets its personality — subway tile, zellige, large-format porcelain slabs, or the countertop material run up the wall. Flooring has to handle water and traffic; porcelain tile, engineered hardwood and luxury vinyl plank are the common picks, and the choice affects whether the floor goes in before or after the cabinets.

Lighting is the most under-planned part of most kitchens. A good plan layers recessed ceiling light for general use, under-cabinet light for the counters, and pendants over the island or sink. Adding circuits for new appliances is often required once you move to a larger range, a second oven or an induction cooktop.

Planning a bathroom remodel in Clarendon Hills: ventilation, lighting and fixtures

A bath fan that vents outside — not into the attic — and is sized for the room is what keeps mold off the ceiling. Lighting should include good light at the mirror from the sides or above, not just a single ceiling fixture. Fixtures such as pressure-balance or thermostatic shower valves, comfort-height toilets and wall-mounted faucets are all decided early, because the rough plumbing is built around them.

Why Clarendon Hills homeowners call us

• One plan for the whole room. Layout, cabinets, counters, tile, fixtures and lighting are planned together, not left to separate trades.
• Built from the inside out. Waterproofing, level cabinets, venting and wiring get the same attention as the finishes.
• Clear written scope. You see what is included, and what is not, before work starts.
• Hidden damage shown to you. If we find rot or water damage behind a wall, you see it before it is repaired.
