What affects pricing

We do not publish flat prices, because the honest answer depends on the property. These are the factors that move the number on this type of work:

  • Property size and current condition
  • Depth of the kitchen and bathroom scope
  • Structural, mechanical or code issues found
  • Finish level appropriate to the target buyer
  • Schedule pressure and holding costs
  • Permit requirements in the municipality

Frequently asked questions

Can you help decide what is worth doing?
Yes — that is most of the value. We rank the work by what a buyer in that area actually pays for, and we say clearly when something is not worth the money.
Do you work from a fixed budget?
Yes. We scope against your number and tell you what fits and what does not, instead of discovering it halfway through.
What happens when you find hidden damage?
You get photos, options and a price before anything changes. No silent additions to the invoice.
Do you handle permits?
We tell you what your municipality requires for the scope and coordinate accordingly; requirements vary across Chicagoland.
