Overview

Home remodeling in Winnetka's estate homes

Most Winnetka homes are 1920s–1960s Georgian, Colonial Revival and Tudor estates on generous lots, often with dated kitchens and original baths. We plan each remodel around the house and its lot, from ravine drainage in west Winnetka to lakefront moisture in the east, and coordinate any landmark review with the Village.

The time to build

How long does a remodel take in Winnetka?

The schedule depends on scope, Village permit and landmark review, and what demolition uncovers in a 1920s–1960s home. We confirm custom cabinetry, stone and tile availability before construction starts, so work doesn't stall waiting on materials.

Why Winnetka homeowners choose Delta Remodels

Winnetka estates were built for entertaining, with butler's pantries, breakfast rooms and several baths, many still carrying 1930s–50s tile and fixtures. We update them for how families live and host now, handle Village permits and landmark review, and have served the North Shore from our Lake Forest shop since 1987.

Before you decide

Winnetka remodeling FAQs

How much does home remodeling cost in Winnetka?

Kitchens typically run $80K–$200K+, bathrooms $30K–$80K+ and basements $45K–$280K+. You get a written fixed-price proposal after design, before construction starts.

Do I need a permit to remodel in Winnetka?

Yes, for most kitchen, bath, basement and structural work. We file with Village of Winnetka Community Development and schedule every inspection.

Does my Winnetka home need landmark review?

Only some do. Designated landmarks, or projects that involve demolition, can trigger Landmark Preservation Commission review or the demolition delay ordinance. We check this during planning, before the scope is final.

How long does a Winnetka remodel take?

Bathrooms take 3–6 weeks of construction, and kitchens and basements 8–16 weeks. Village review and material lead times are confirmed before we set a start date.

Can we live at home during the remodel?

Usually, yes. We seal off the work area, protect floors and nearby rooms, and clean up at the end of each day. A kitchen remodel means a few weeks with a temporary kitchen setup.

Is lead paint or asbestos a concern in older Winnetka homes?

Most Winnetka homes were built before 1978, so we test before demolition and follow EPA lead-safe practices on every project.

How do you protect original millwork?

We protect trim, doors and built-ins in place, or remove and store them before demolition, then match new cabinetry and trim to the originals.

How far is Delta Remodels from Winnetka?

Our Lake Forest office is about 20 minutes away. We've worked across the North Shore since 1987.

Jim Halway

I am extremely happy with the bathroom remodel. The team was professional, efficient, and delivered exceptional results.

Viviana Andujar

I hired Delta to remodel my Kitchen and Dining room after evaluating several companies in this space including big names. From the start I found Kasia very transparent on pricing and services while also being realistic about what was possible within my budget. The crew was very professional, communicative about scheduling, provided options when challenges arose and ultimately were concerned about my happiness with the outcome. While it’s tough to go through a full Kitchen remodel I’m extremely happy with the the results. I took a very outdated look and layout and with the help of Delta made it a space I love to cook and entertain in. I was so happy with the results I hired Delta again to remodel 3 of my bathrooms.

Heather Alosaimi

We worked with Kasia initially on our master bathroom. By the time they had put tile in, I’d already decided I wanted to hire her for our second bathroom Reno, and any of our demo projects moving forward (kitchen was next)! Kasia is very straight to the point, and she is upfront about pricing from the get go. Any add ons we wanted she was able to give a reasonable quote right away, and any hiccups we ran into she was always transparent with. Chris, and the rest of her team, are very respectful when working in your home. They took measures to protect the flooring, along with cleaning up at the end of each day to help keep your home as put together as possible. Kasia has a great taste for design, and will give her honest opinion on picking out materials without being pushy. We received 4-5 different quotes on our project, and I absolutely think their pricing structure is reasonable for the area. Additionally, we had completed multiple major renovations with our house prior, between 2-3 other companies. Hands down, Kasia and her team provided the highest quality work, and attention to detail. I’m very happy with the way our projects turned out, and would 100% recommend!!

Tisa Olson

They did a beautiful job on our bathroom remodel! It looks exactly like we envisioned and they were very collaborative and communicative throughout the whole process

Alyssa Mattero

We purchased a new home and a neighbor who happens to be a trusted friend, insisted we use Kasia of Delta Remodeling. Our friend reported that her kitchen remodel project went smoothly without any issues, so we followed this advice and hired Kasia of Delta Remodeling, on the spot! What began as a kitchen and bathroom remodel, soon became a whole house project. Kasia had her work crew from every trade, busy from day one. We soon hired a designer to coordinate the many decisions along the way. We can’t emphasize enough, the fine results through fine workmanship, that has resulted in our home being a beautiful and comfortable place to live. Kasia and her team listened to us, making flexible changes along the way, and making our dream house come true! Very trustworthy and honest, a pleasure to work with from start to finish. We’re so glad we listened to the strong friend referral. We highly recommend Delta Remolding to bring you the beautiful finished product that you wish.

10 Stars! Total Spa-Bath Transformation & Mid-Project Heroes! Kasia and her team at Delta (Lake Forest) are the best. They just finished remodeling our master and guest bathrooms, and the experience was flawless from start to finish. Here is why they stand out: Excellent Communication: Kasia is incredibly organized. She asks great questions upfront to prevent issues and offered brilliant suggestions for both the design and functional utility of our spaces. Stunning Master Bath Transformation: They tackled a full layout change and a complete plumbing upgrade to drastically increase our water pressure. They built us a gorgeous, spa-like shower complete with a rain head and a handheld sprayer. Reliable & Clean Crew: Chester and his son Peter were punctual, respectful, and highly efficient at keeping the project on schedule. Best of all, they cleaned up thoroughly at the end of every single day—we never had to live in a messy construction site. Above & Beyond Service: We had a random kitchen pipe burst mid-remodel. Since the crew is highly skilled in plumbing, they fixed the emergency on the spot for a very fair and reasonable price. We loved our new master bath so much we immediately decided to do our guest bath too, and both turned out amazing. We can't wait to use Delta again for our basement project in two years!

Jason Mayer

Delta Bathroom and Kitchen Remodeling did a beautiful job on our bathroom remodel in Lake Bluff. The marble-look tile, mosaic shower floor, frameless glass, black freestanding tub, double vanity, lighting, and fixtures all came together with a clean modern finish. The space feels polished, functional, and easy to use every day. I would recommend Delta Bathroom and Kitchen Remodeling to anyone in Lake Bluff or the North Shore looking for a reliable bathroom remodeling contractor or kitchen remodeling company.

Krystian DHW

I recently hired Delta Remodeling for a complete primary bathroom remodel and I couldn't be happier with the result and the Service! From the initial consultation to the final walkthrough, the team was professional, punctual, flexible and reliable. Kasia and her team did a fantastic job and were a great support navigating through a very messy tile delivery from floor & decor. If you're looking for a contractor who is honest and does high-quality work, look no further!

Arno Kaufmann

We recently finished having our master bathroom gutted and fully remodeled by Delta, and it turned out beautifully! I was very impressed with Kasia and her team from the very moment we got in touch with them. We got multiple bids for the project, and their pricing was extremely competitive. Kasia was very responsive throughout the entire process as well - answering questions over e-mail, text, or phone calls. Although the remodel did take longer than predicted, it was delayed due to reasons outside of anyone's control... and Kasia always kept us well informed about what was happening so we never felt like we were in the dark. My wife has pretty bad allergies that get particularly agitated by dust, and the Delta team took extra care to protect our house from any construction dust. They put up two layers of zipper-opened floor to ceiling plastic sheets to isolate the bathroom, cleaned up after themselves every single day, and - as a result - my wife's allergies never flared up once over the entire project. I was also really happy with how flexible they were. As the remodel was progressing, my wife and I sometimes wanted to make small changes that Kasia and her team were happy to accommodate. Many of these changes were done without any extra charges, and those changes that did incur an extra cost (like installing new electrical outlets) were priced fairly. In the end, my wife and I are thrilled with how our new bathroom turned out. We plan to use Delta for our future remodeling projects and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone.

Keith Kaminski

Another amazing project complete! We are beyond pleased with Delta! They are professional, thorough, and passionate.
