Complete estate renovations for Winnetka's finest Tudor, Georgian & Colonial homes. From foundation to roofline—transforming North Shore properties since 2013.
When it comes to whole home remodeling in Winnetka, you need more than a contractor—you need a partner who understands what makes North Shore living special. Maybe your 1930s Tudor has great bones but a kitchen stuck in the 1980s. Perhaps your Georgian's formal rooms no longer fit how your family actually lives. Or you've just purchased an estate that needs updating from top to bottom. Whatever your situation, Winnetka whole home remodeling is about creating a home that works beautifully for your life today.
Assembly Squad has been the go-to choice for whole home remodel Winnetka, IL projects since 2013. We've completed 75+ major renovations across Winnetka, Kenilworth, Glencoe, and Northfield—everything from targeted kitchen-and-bath packages to complete gut rehabs of historic estates. Our design-build approach means one team handles your entire project: architectural planning, Village permits, structural work, finishes, and everything in between. No finger-pointing between contractors. No communication gaps. Just a beautifully renovated home delivered on time and on budget.
Every Winnetka whole home remodeling project is different. Some homeowners want to tackle everything at once. Others prefer a phased approach. Here's what we do best.
Most Popular
The big one. We strip your home to the studs and rebuild everything—new electrical, plumbing, HVAC, insulation, walls, finishes. Your home's bones stay; everything else gets better.
High ROI
This is where most families actually live. We open up cramped layouts, create chef-worthy kitchens, and make your main floor flow the way modern life demands.
Your bedroom should be a retreat, not an afterthought. We create spa-worthy primary suites with luxurious bathrooms, proper closets, and that "ahhh" feeling at the end of every day.
Expansion
Sometimes you love your location but need more space. We design and build additions that look like they've always been there—matching your home's architecture perfectly.
Multi-Level
Why renovate in phases when you can do it all at once? We coordinate basement, main floor, and upper level work simultaneously—less disruption, faster results, cohesive design.
Heritage
Some details are worth keeping. We restore original millwork, repair plaster, match period hardware—all while quietly adding the modern systems that make old homes comfortable.
We come to your home, walk through every room, and actually listen to what you want. What's working? What drives you crazy? What's your dream scenario? We take notes—lots of them.
You'll see your renovation in 3D before we touch a hammer. Pick materials at our showroom. Get a fixed-price contract that actually means something—the number we quote is the number you pay.
Your project manager picks up the phone. Every time. Weekly updates happen on schedule. Our crews clean up daily. We treat your home like it's ours—because our reputation depends on it.
We don't consider a project finished until you're thrilled. Final walkthrough, punch list completed, village inspections passed. Plus a 5-year warranty because we stand behind our work.
Let's be honest: whole home remodeling Winnetka projects are a big deal. We're talking about months of your life, significant investment, and your family's daily comfort during construction. You can't afford to get this wrong—and neither can we.
That's why we've built our entire business around making Winnetka whole home remodeling projects as smooth as humanly possible. We've renovated Tudors on Sheridan Road, Georgians near the lake, Colonials in Indian Hill. We know which Village inspectors are sticklers and which suppliers actually deliver on time. We understand that your 1935 plaster walls need different treatment than 1985 drywall. This stuff matters.
After 75+ whole home remodel Winnetka, IL projects and counting, we've learned what North Shore homeowners actually care about: clear communication, honest pricing, quality craftsmanship, and respect for their homes. No ghosting. No surprise bills. No excuses.
We believe in transparency. Here's what Winnetka whole home remodeling projects typically run—based on our actual completed work, not wishful thinking.
"We knew our Tudor needed everything—but we didn't know where to start. Assembly Squad walked us through the entire process, helped us prioritize, and delivered exactly what they promised. Eight months later, we have a completely transformed home that still feels like our home. The original leaded windows? Still there. The cramped kitchen? Gone. We couldn't be happier."
"We added 1,200 square feet to our Georgian—a new primary suite plus kitchen expansion. I was terrified the addition would look 'tacked on.' It doesn't. Viktor's team matched our brick perfectly, and the interior flows like the house was always this way. Three neighbors have asked for their contact info. That tells you everything."
Picking finishes from tiny samples is frustrating. That's why we built a 2,500 square foot design studio at 2315 N Southport Ave—just 25 minutes from Winnetka. See full-size cabinet displays. Touch countertop slabs. Walk on actual flooring samples. It makes decisions so much easier.
