Remodeling in Skokie
Skokie's population grew enormously in the two decades after the Second World War, and the housing built in that period — brick Georgians, ranches and bungalows on tidy lots — is still the backbone of the village. These are durable, well-built houses with good masonry, real hardwood under the carpet in many cases, and floor plans that reflect 1950s expectations about how rooms should be separated.
The remodeling opportunity is mostly interior: connecting the kitchen to the living space, updating the single full bath or adding a second, refinishing or replacing floors, and finishing the basement. LCD Construction Inc. carries all of that, including the framing and header work when a wall needs to come out, so one crew handles both the structure and the finishes that follow it.
What matters locally
Hardwood worth saving
There is often original hardwood under carpet in these homes. If enough thickness remains, refinishing beats replacing — and we will tell you which applies.
Georgian layouts
Center-hall Georgians separate the kitchen from everything else. Opening that up is structural work, and the header has to be sized properly.
Second bathrooms
Adding a bath upstairs or in the basement is common in this stock, and depends on where the existing drain lines run.
