Remodeling & Construction Contractor in Evanston, IL

Evanston has the oldest and most varied housing of any community we serve: Victorians, American four-squares, Prairie-influenced homes, brick two-flats and early twentieth-century apartment buildings, alongside mid-century and modern infill. Much of it predates the conveniences a remodel is meant to deliver, and a good deal of it carries detail — millwork, built-ins, leaded glass, hardwood — that is genuinely worth protecting.

Working in that stock is a different job from working in a 1970s subdivision. Walls are plaster over lath, framing is not always where you expect it, and matching existing trim matters more than the new cabinets do. LCD Construction Inc. approaches these homes carefully: assess before demolishing, preserve what should be preserved, and hold the new work to the standard the old work set.
