What Hinsdale requires a permit for
The Village of Hinsdale lists remodels, renovations, and alterations as permit work, along with additions, relocating or adding plumbing, relocating or altering electrical systems, air conditioner or furnace replacement, water heaters, grading changes, and interior or exterior drain tile. A window permit is required when an existing or proposed opening is altered. Millwork and trim, flooring replacement, hardwood refinishing, painting, and one-for-one replacement of single-family windows, doors, siding, or roofing do not need a permit.
General contractors register with the village. HVAC, landscaping, and framing contractors do not need to register because those trades are typically subcontracted by the general contractor, and electrical contractors provide a current license.
Additions involve more than drawings
The village’s single-family addition information sheet asks for plats of survey with the addition drawn to scale and stamped architectural plans that include floor area ratio overlays. A certified tree plan is required for an addition of 600 square feet or more or a detached garage, and an abutting neighbor contact form is required once the added area reaches 600 square feet. More than 2,500 square feet of disruption calls for a stormwater management permit, and the sheet also lists an approval letter from the Flagg Creek Sanitary District. Rough framing, electrical, mechanical, and plumbing inspections happen before walls are insulated, and the sheet lists work hours of 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. on weekdays and 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturdays, with no work on Sundays.
If the home is a local landmark or sits in the Robbins Park Historic District, the village asks owners to be aware of Certificate of Appropriateness review by the Historic Preservation Commission, which covers exterior changes to a designated landmark and new construction or demolition in the district.

Five questions every homeowner asks first.
Plain answers — the kind we'd give a neighbor over coffee, not the ones written for a brochure.
Have a different question? Ask during your free estimate →-
How much does a typical kitchen or bathroom remodel cost?
Bathroom remodels in our area typically run $18,000–$45,000. Mid-range kitchens are usually $35,000–$80,000 — full custom kitchens can reach $120,000+. We give you a detailed estimate in writing after the in-home visit, so you see the numbers line by line before signing anything.
-
How long will my project take?
A bathroom is usually 3–5 weeks from demo to final walkthrough. A standard kitchen runs 6–8 weeks. Basement finishes are 5–8 weeks. We give you a written schedule before we start — and because we use our own in-house crew, we don't lose days waiting on a subcontractor to show up.
-
Do you handle the permits and inspections?
Yes — every time. We pull the permits, schedule the inspections, and meet with the inspectors. You don't deal with the village. We handle Buffalo Grove, Arlington Heights, Lombard, Glen Ellyn, Wheaton, and the rest of our service area.
-
Can we live in the house during the remodel?
Almost always, yes. We seal off the work zone with plastic, set up a temporary kitchen if we're remodeling yours, vacuum daily, and do a deep clean at the end. Most clients stay in the home for the full project — we plan the sequence around your daily life.
-
How do payments work?
A small deposit at signing, then progress payments tied to milestones (rough-in complete, drywall complete, final walkthrough). You never pre-pay for work that hasn't started. Final payment is only released after you sign off on the final walkthrough — not before.
