Kenilworth remodel submittals start with the scope
The Village of Kenilworth Building/Planning Division lists what to submit for an interior remodel permit: the application, a contractor bid with a detailed scope and cost of work, architectural plans, a current plat of survey, and a site plan. A soil boring report applies when below-grade living areas are proposed, which matters for basement plans. The village estimates five to ten working days for initial review and five working days for later reviews, not counting administrative processing time. Division staff work part-time, one more reason to submit a complete package.
Applications go through the village’s online permit portal after requesting a web PIN from the village. Contractors are not required to register with Kenilworth, but licenses are required during submittal when roofing, plumbing, irrigation, or electrical work is part of the scope.
Additions, neighbors, and scheduling
For additions, the village also asks for civil plans, a zoning compliance worksheet, a tree preservation plan, and verification that adjacent property owners and the owner across the street received notice by hand delivery or certified mail. Pre-application meetings are encouraged for major projects such as additions and basement expansions, and a meeting with the Police Department about construction site regulations is required before an addition begins. Disturbing 200 square feet or more of ground surface triggers a separate drainage and grading permit.
Construction activity is allowed from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday and 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday, and not on Sundays or holidays. Building inspections run weekday afternoons, morning inspections are available on Tuesdays only, and requests are due by 4 p.m. the day before.

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.
