Split Level Remodeling in Des Plaines
Many Des Plaines homes are ranches, split levels and raised ranches from the 1950s and 1960s, with older bungalows near downtown. Split levels have their own quirks, with short runs of stairs, a lower level half below grade and a kitchen squeezed between floors.
The Des Plaines River runs through town, and parts of the city have flooded in heavy storms. Before we finish a lower level here we look hard at drainage, the sump and the foundation walls.

Common Questions
Can you finish the lower level of my split level?
Yes. We handle moisture first, then build a family room, office or bedroom, with an egress window where one is needed.
Can you open up a split level kitchen?
Often. We check whether the wall is load bearing first, then plan the opening into the proposal.
