Certified Pro Renovation, Inc. has been in business since 1985 serving Lake Villa and the surrounding area. We work with integrity to make sure that the job is complete until the customer is satisfied. From siding repairs to full scale kitchen and bathroom remodels, we have the skills for all of your renovation needs.
"Certified Pro-Restorations saved my home after another contractor gutted it and disappeared. They stepped in on Christmas Eve, patched my floors in days, and immediately got to work rebuilding every room—kitchen, bathroom, bedrooms, closets—everything. They touched every part of the house: electrical, plumbing, paint, flooring. They fixed both gutted closets, transformed the bedrooms to feel bigger and better, and even helped move my stuff back in. I was constantly updated with photos and input on every decision. They connected me with better deals on materials and made sure the work stayed high quality and affordable. The team was kind, professional, and truly cared. Thanks to them, my house is stunning—and worth nearly double what it was. They didn’t just fix a mess, they gave me my home back."

"The team at Quintessential Renovations Inc. did a fantastic job replacing the cabinets in my kitchen! I could not be happier! Highly recommend them! They had the best customer service, all of their workers were friendly, clean, on time, and highly respectful. They did all of the correct prep work on the job and they really respected my home and belongings. They used great drop cloths and covered everything! They did almost all of the work in just two days and the entire project was completed in less than a week. Their estimate was right on the money and they worked so hard to keep things right where I needed them to be financially. They came up with creative solutions to my storage needs, designed some cool new corner cabinets, and gave me the greatest deal on the top of the line countertops that I just rave about!

"In late 2024, we purchased a 35 yr old condo in Lake Barrington Shores that needed some major updates and remodeling. After considering bids from three contractors, we chose Master Craft & Design, led by Ed Ringmeier, the company’s president. Ed immediately stood out for his professionalism, clarity, and responsiveness. Since we were managing the project remotely from Florida, communication was crucial. Ed and his team maintained consistent contact through texts, emails, and frequent photo updates, allowing us to feel confident and informed throughout the process. Master Craft & Design clearly laid out their plan and committed to a 30–45 day timeline. They not only met this goal—they exceeded it.

"I hired Platinum Touch Industries LLC in the summer of 2018 for my first Fix and Flip remodel project and was impressed with their work. Vince and his team did a fantastic job from demo to cleanup to the finish touches per schedule. Vince was honest at front and very professional. Based on the Scope of Work I presented to him, we were all in the same page. Once milestones were completed within the Project Timeline, payment was made to him in a timely manner. Platinum is honest, reliable, and work ethic is impeccable. I was impressed with their work and demeanor, I hired them again the winter of 2018 for a minor remodel on one of my rental properties and in the Spring/Summer of 2019 for a Major Rehab on a Fix and Flip project in the Lombard area. I would recommend Platinum Touch Industries in all aspects for your Construction Project, whether it is a minor remodel to a major rehab. Thanks Vince and Bob for all you do.

Start by asking a local contractor, architect, or interior designer for a detailed line‑item estimate. These pros can price out labor, materials, permits, and any specialty work, then flag areas where you can save. Once you have that breakdown, add 20% to the total to cover potential surprises, such as hidden water damage or code upgrades. This approach gives you a realistic budget before the first hammer swings.
In most cases, remodeling wins on price. Because you’re reusing the existing structure, you avoid foundation work, framing an entire shell, and many permit fees. Unless the home has severe structural problems, updating what you already own is the more budget‑friendly route than building an entirely new house from scratch.
Home renovation timelines hinge on scope. Cosmetic updates—such as new paint, fixtures, or flooring—can be completed in a few days or weeks. A multi-room gut renovation that involves moving walls or utilities can stretch to six months, and adding square footage can push the schedule past a year. Good planning and a clear contractor schedule help keep projects on track, so be sure to build extra time into the calendar for permit reviews and unforeseen repairs.
Before your home renovation work begins, contact your insurance agent to confirm that your current policy covers the project. Standard homeowners insurance usually protects against fire or storm damage during construction, but bigger upgrades—adding square footage, high‑end finishes, or new systems—can raise your home’s value beyond existing limits. If coverage falls short, ask about a renovation rider or a policy increase so you’re fully protected from day one to final walkthrough.
