Three Things Chicago homeowners need to know.
1
Older homes hide surprises
Vntage bungalows and two-flats often have knob-and-tube wiring or galvanized plumbing that has to be updated — plan for it, don't be shocked by it.
2
Permits for most changes
Moving walls, gas lines, or electrical needs a permit; cosmetic swaps usually don't. Your contractor should handle it.
3
Condo & co-op rules
Many Chicago kitchens sit in buildings that require board approval, a certificate of insurance, and set work hours — make sure to factor in extra time.
