Timeline depends on project scope and permit requirements. Kitchen remodels typically take 3-6 weeks, bathroom renovations 2-4 weeks, and room additions 6-12 weeks. Lakeview’s vintage homes sometimes reveal unexpected issues that can add time, which is why thorough initial assessments matter. Weather can also impact exterior work during Chicago winters. We provide realistic timelines upfront and communicate immediately if anything changes during construction.
Yes, we manage the permit process for all projects requiring city approval. Chicago has specific building codes, especially for Lakeview’s historic properties. We know which projects need permits, how to file correctly, and what inspections are required. This saves you time and ensures work meets city standards. Permit costs are included in project estimates so there are no surprise fees. Having proper permits also protects your investment and prevents issues when selling your home.
Older homes often have unique challenges like outdated electrical systems, plumbing that needs updating, and structural elements that require special handling. Lakeview’s homes from the early 1900s may have beautiful original features worth preserving alongside modern upgrades. We know how to work with existing architecture while bringing homes up to current standards. This experience helps avoid costly mistakes and ensures renovations enhance rather than compromise your home’s character and value.
Unexpected issues happen, especially in older homes. When we discover problems like outdated wiring or water damage, we stop work immediately and explain the situation. You get a clear explanation of the issue, why it needs addressing, and cost implications before any additional work begins. No surprise bills at project end. This approach might slow things down temporarily, but it prevents bigger problems and keeps you in control of your budget and decisions.
Estimates include materials, labor, permits, and cleanup. We break down costs clearly so you understand where your money goes. No hidden fees for basic services like debris removal or final cleaning. If changes are needed during construction, we discuss costs before proceeding. This transparency helps you budget accurately and avoid the surprise expenses that plague many construction projects. You’ll know the total investment upfront, not after work is completed.
Yes, Metanoia Construction Inc maintains proper Illinois licensing and comprehensive insurance coverage. This protects both your property and our workers during construction. Insurance covers potential accidents, property damage, and liability issues that can arise during construction projects. Licensing ensures we meet state requirements for construction work and stay current with building codes. Always verify any contractor’s credentials before hiring – it’s your protection against substandard work and potential legal issues.
