Building and Remodeling in Palatine
New builds, whole-house remodels, kitchens, baths and lower levels across Palatine, run by the same person who quotes them.
The full list, in a town we work in constantly
Palatine keeps us busy across the whole range. New construction on infill lots, serious remodels on the sixties and seventies stock, kitchens, primary suites and finished lower levels. The common thread is that a village this size has a lot of houses at the age where something needs doing, and most of those houses were well built to begin with.
Whichever end of that range you are at, the arrangement is the same. The team that quotes it runs it, and Skycrest is who you call when something is not right. For a small job that is convenient. For a large one it is the whole reason people hire us instead of a bigger outfit.

The kitchen is the room the house runs on. We rebuild it around traffic, reach and clearance first, then make it look the way you want it to look.

Remodels on sixties and seventies houses
The bulk of Palatine's remodel work is on houses built between about 1958 and 1979. Solid framing, undersized electrical service, kitchens cut off from everything else, and bathrooms with the original cast-iron tub. The structure is usually worth keeping. Almost everything inside the walls is not, and a remodel that replaces the finishes without the wiring is a missed opportunity.
- Electrical service evaluated against what the finished house will draw
- Original galvanised supply lines replaced rather than worked around
- Permits pulled and inspections passed on everything that needs them

Questions
Asked in Palatine
Something not answered here? Call (847) 380-8212 and ask us directly.
Do you do small jobs in Palatine?
Single rooms yes, odd jobs no. A bathroom, a kitchen, a basement, an addition. If it is a half-day of work, you want a handyman and we will say so rather than quoting it badly.
How quickly can you start?
Depends on the season and the size. Call and we will give you the real lead time. If we are booked past when you need us, we will tell you that instead of stringing it out.
Who is actually on site every day?
Our own crew for the core work, and trades we have used for years for the rest. Our project managers are on site regularly, not occasionally. There is no project manager you have never met running your job from an office.
