Rohrer For Construction has offered kitchen and bath remodeling in Lake County, IL since 1989. Adolph Rohrer founded the company, and today he and his son Austin run it together.
Most of the work is done by their own crew, a team that has worked together for more than 35 years, which keeps quality and communication in one place.
Kitchens and baths lead the list, but the same crew also finishes basements, builds additions, garages and decks, and handles exteriors. That range helps when a bathroom job uncovers framing or plumbing that needs attention. Permits in towns like Grayslake, Libertyville and Mundelein are handled for you.
Full renovations, layout fixes, small-kitchen makeovers and open-concept updates, planned around cabinet storage, prep space and traffic flow. A moderate Lake County kitchen typically runs $25,000 to $75,000; custom cabinetry and high-end finishes can run higher.
Guest baths to primary suites, built with Schluter waterproofing and fixtures from brands like Delta and Kohler. A typical bathroom takes 2 to 4 weeks, depending on whether it needs new tile, a plumbing move or a full gut renovation.
Walk-in, curbless and enclosed showers, tub-to-shower conversions and bathtub replacements. For a curbless shower the crew first checks floor depth and the drain route, then builds slope, waterproofing, tile and glass as one project, with blocking for grab bars where needed.
Unfinished lower levels turned into usable rooms, from open family spaces with new flooring and lighting to specialty features like a basement sauna. Framing, insulation, drywall and flooring are handled by the same crew that does your kitchen.
Room additions, second-floor additions, garages, decks, pergolas and screen houses. Planning, permits, construction and the final walkthrough are managed by the same team, so even a larger, multi-phase project still has one point of contact from start to finish.
Adolph manages the jobsite as President, and Austin leads client relations as Vice President, so you deal with an owner from the first planning call to the final walkthrough.
Unlike companies that subcontract everything, Rohrer's own experienced crew does the majority of the work, which means tighter quality control and fewer hand-offs.
Licensed, insured and bonded, BBB Accredited with an A+ rating, and rated 5.0 from 20 Google reviews. Reviewers call the crew consistent, communicative, punctual and very detail oriented.
A referral partnership with RenoFi gives homeowners access to loans built for renovations, which the company says often carry better rates. The process is simple and carries no obligation.

The team walks through your project on site, hears your goals and layout frustrations, and gives an accurate, no-pressure quote.
Layout, cabinet planning, finish selections, budget and permits are organized before construction begins, so everyone works from the same plan.
The in-house crew builds with a focus on craftsmanship, detail and regular updates, while permits and inspections are handled along the way.
You review the finished room together to confirm it matches the original plan and your expectations before the job is closed out.
Austin & Jesus we're awesome! I had a small repair job in my kitchen and it came out FANTASTIC!! Polite, Professional & Efficient! I will be utilizing them for all my future repair needs!
After doing a lot of research, both online and in person, I decided to go with these guys, and I could not be happier that I did.
We had a great experience with Rohrer For Construction. They came out, did a very thorough inspection, and took the time to explain what was going on with the roof structure and what the next steps should be.
A moderate kitchen renovation typically runs $25,000 to $75,000, depending on size, materials and scope. Projects with custom cabinetry and high-end finishes can run higher, and moving plumbing or appliances adds work. Rohrer gives free, detailed estimates so you know what to expect before anything starts.
In Rohrer's experience a typical bathroom takes 2 to 4 weeks. New tile, a relocated drain or a full gut each change the schedule. You get a clear timeline at the start and regular updates while the crew works, so you know when the room will be ready to use again.
Most structural, electrical and plumbing work and all additions need permits in Lake County towns such as Grayslake, Libertyville and Mundelein. Rohrer handles the permit process for you and builds to local code, with the goal of passing inspection the first time.
Yes. The same crew finishes basements, builds room additions, garages and decks, and handles exterior painting and siding. Specialty jobs like a basement sauna, screen houses and pergolas are in the portfolio too. One contractor for a mixed project means fewer hand-offs and clearer accountability.
Yes. Rohrer has a referral partnership with RenoFi, a lender focused on renovation loans that, according to the company, often offers better rates than traditional options. The process is simple and carries no obligation, so you can check your numbers while you plan the project.
