Elgin has about 114,934 residents. Half of its housing units were built in or before 1977, and more than half were built before 1980. A kitchen in a house of that age often still has its original layout, which is why layout changes and wall removal are a regular part of the work here. Greco Remodeling Services Contractor, Incredible Builders Inc, Metanoia Construction Inc., Molitor Design+Build and T-Square Construction all take on moving or removing walls as part of a kitchen job.

Design-build firms are well represented around Elgin. Hogan Design & Construction in Geneva has been in business since 2000 and pairs each client with a personal designer, a design center and a showroom. Advance Design Studio in Gilberts has served the northwest suburbs since 1992, with designers, project managers and in-house carpenters on one team. Schafer Brothers Remodeling, Inc. of Crystal Lake runs an in-house design department alongside project managers and its own tradesmen.

Cabinets and countertops divide the local trade into a few lanes. Many of the remodelers install cabinets, and a smaller group refaces cabinets instead of replacing them: Redo Cabinets, Mr. Handyman of Naperville, Modern Kitchens USA and Metanoia Construction Inc. Redo Cabinets works from a showroom in St. Charles and holds 5.0 from 266 reviews. Granite Masters Countertops in Lake in the Hills fabricates quartz, granite, marble, quartzite and porcelain, and Windmill Countertops in Batavia has fabricated and installed countertops since 2012.

Because half of Elgin's homes date from 1977 or earlier, the EPA lead-safe renovation rule reaches a big share of local kitchens. Anyone paid to disturb painted surfaces in a home built before 1978 has to be certified, and their employees have to be trained in lead-safe work practices. It is a reasonable question to put to any remodeler you talk to.

Elgin's New Construction and Remodeling Quick Guide says permits are required. It also calls for an architect or structural engineer's seal when existing structural elements are altered, which matters for any job that opens up walls. Hogan Design & Construction, United Remodeling Services, Cabinetland Kitchen and Bathroom Remodeling Chicago and Reliable Quality Construction Inc. each handle permits as part of the job.

Remodelers here name Batavia, Geneva, St. Charles and Naperville most often as where they work, with Chicago, Crystal Lake and Wheaton also named, and a few cover McHenry County.
