Project timelines depend on scope and complexity, but most kitchen remodels take 4-6 weeks, bathroom renovations take 2-3 weeks, and room additions take 8-12 weeks. We provide detailed timelines during the estimate process and factor in permit approval times, which can add 2-4 weeks depending on the project. Weather, material availability, and change requests can affect schedules, but we communicate any delays immediately and adjust timelines accordingly. Our goal is to complete your project efficiently without rushing the quality of work.
Yes, we handle all permit applications and coordinate required inspections with the Village of Downers Grove. This includes pulling building permits, electrical permits, plumbing permits, and any specialty permits your project requires. We’re familiar with local building codes and inspection requirements, which helps avoid delays and ensures your project meets all safety and compliance standards. You don’t need to visit the village office or deal with inspection scheduling – we manage that entire process as part of our service.
Our estimates break down all materials, labor, permits, and timeline details so you know exactly what you’re paying for. We include material specifications, labor hours, cleanup, and any subcontractor work required. The contract outlines payment schedule, change order procedures, warranty information, and project completion criteria. We don’t use vague line items or lump sum pricing that hides costs. Everything is itemized and explained clearly before you sign anything, and we encourage questions about any part of the estimate or contract terms.
Yes, Metanoia Construction Inc is fully licensed for general contracting work in Illinois and carries comprehensive liability insurance and workers’ compensation coverage. We can provide proof of insurance and licensing before starting any project. Our insurance protects both your property and our workers during construction. We also ensure any subcontractors we work with carry proper licensing and insurance for their specialty work. This protects you from liability issues and ensures all work meets professional standards and legal requirements.
We discuss potential issues during the planning phase and build contingencies into our estimates when appropriate. If unexpected problems arise – like discovering outdated electrical work or structural issues – we stop work, explain the situation, and provide options with clear pricing before proceeding. All changes require written approval through our change order process. We never surprise you with additional costs at the end of the project. Our goal is to identify potential issues early and communicate all costs upfront so your budget stays on track.

Travel time and logistics are never an issue since we work exclusively in this region and understand each community’s unique requirements.
