ZIP 60067 covers Palatine and sits in Cook County, roughly 14 miles northwest of our Mt. Prospect shop. The area is a mix of established subdivisions, newer builds near Palatine Road, and mature tree-lined streets close to downtown Palatine. Homes range from mid-century ranches and split-levels to larger two-stories built out during the suburban growth of the 80s and 90s. Many of those homes are now at the age where kitchens feel dated, bathrooms need a full gut, and basements that were never finished are starting to look like wasted square footage.
The climate here is no joke. Palatine sits in the same freeze-thaw zone as the rest of northeastern Illinois, and that cycle beats up on tile grout, basement walls, and bathroom fixtures year after year. Humidity in summer pushes moisture into crawl spaces and poorly ventilated basements. We know what that looks like after 20 years of opening up walls in this part of Cook County. A remodel done right in 60067 accounts for those conditions from the start, not after the fact.
