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.

Overview
What a bathroom remodel in Riverwoods includes
Delta - Bathroom and Kitchen Remodeling is a Lake Forest-based design-build firm serving the North Shore and nearby Chicagoland. In Riverwoods we remodel bathrooms in Contemporary homes, scoping each project to the home and finish level after an in-home visit.
Good bathroom design in Riverwoods starts with the architecture and the existing room. Local projects often start with this condition: Primary and hall bathrooms often need cleaner storage, better ventilation, and shower upgrades that fit a quiet wooded-home aesthetic. We decide what to keep, what to rebuild, and where to add light, storage, waterproofing, and material weight that fits the rest of the house.

Riverwoods specifics
What makes bathroom remodeling in Riverwoods different
Custom single-family homes on wooded lots and winding residential streets
Primary suite layout no longer serves the household
Estate bathrooms in Riverwoods with enough square footage often still have tub-heavy layouts, undersized showers, and inadequate storage for daily use. A remodel rethinks the plan first, and the finishes follow from it.
Multiple bathrooms need coordinated finish direction
When the primary bath, guest bath, and hall bath are each from different renovation decades, the home starts to feel inconsistent. A planned sequence brings the finish language together.
Shower and soaking tub no longer both earn floor space
Most households use the shower every day and the soaking tub rarely. A remodel is the moment to assess which earns the floor space and plan the primary bath around that answer.
Ventilation and waterproofing issues have recurred
Persistent moisture, grout failure, or fan noise in a Riverwoods bathroom usually means the waterproofing, substrate, or ventilation needs a full rebuild rather than a surface repair.
Delta has designed and built across the North Shore since 1987. See everything we build in this city on the Riverwoods service area page.

FAQ
Bathroom Remodeling in Riverwoods: common questions
How long does a bathroom remodel take in Riverwoods?
The current planning range for bathroom remodeling in Riverwoods is 3–6 weeks for construction and 5–12 weeks from design through completion. An expanded primary suite, structural work, or custom tile can require a longer project schedule. The project schedule is confirmed after design, selections, and scope are defined.
What does a bathroom remodel in Riverwoods typically cost?
Riverwoods bathroom remodels are priced after an in-home visit. Cost depends on tile coverage, plumbing relocation, shower design, and finish level.
Do you handle permits for bathroom work in Riverwoods?
Yes. Village of Riverwoods Building Department, 300 Portwine Road, Riverwoods, IL 60015 (bldg@riverwoods.gov). Office hours Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. We submit the permit set, coordinate inspections, and close out the project so homeowners never deal with the building department directly.
Can you preserve original details in a Riverwoods bathroom?
When original tile, millwork, or fixtures in a 1950s-1990s Riverwoods home still belong in the room, we plan the remodel around them. When they do not, we source period-appropriate replacements that read as part of the house rather than a generic upgrade.

Another amazing project complete! We are beyond pleased with Delta! They are professional, thorough, and passionate.
Friendly, efficient, adaptable; delivered as promised. Would recommend.
I am very satisfied with the work that Delta did for my primary bathroom renovation. The contractors were very efficient and I was impressed with the care they took to protect my home while they worked, such as placing tarps over surfaces that they would be working around. Communication with them was great, I was able to get questions answered fast over text message or phone call. My project was completed in a timely manner and I have been enjoying the work they did very much! I would definitely be open to working with them again for additional for projects.
Delta remodeled our master bathroom. The project was complex and involved moving the toilet, shower, removing a soaking tub, and replacing all the surfaces and cabinets. Delta did a fantastic job in an unusual room with lots of custom work. The project was completed a year ago and still looks great. Even better, Delta stands by their work. Several months after our bathroom project was completed, we had leaking in another area of our home which we thought could be connected to the bathroom work. The plumbing issue ended up being unrelated. However, when the leaking started, we called Delta for help. Two Delta folks were at our house within the hour to figure out what the problem was and help us get it solved. I was very impressed that they were so concerned in making sure their work was lasting and that we were happy with the new bathroom. We ended up hiring them to fix the additional plumbing issue because we knew they would do a good job.
Super impressed with their work! Our living space feels brand new. The crew was efficient, respectful, and paid attention to every detail. Highly recommend for any remodeling needs.
