Grace Built Construction brings full-service residential remodeling to Tremont homeowners — honest estimates, quality craftsmanship, and a standard of work that fits the tight-knit community this village has always been.

Tremont is the kind of community that does not need much introduction to the people who live here. It is a small village with a strong identity — rooted in agriculture, shaped by the families who have been here for generations, and growing steadily as newer residents discover that the combination of Tremont’s school district, its community character, and its location in southern Tazewell County is exactly what they have been looking for.
Homes in Tremont reflect that character. Many of the properties here are older farmhouses and village homes with genuine history — wide lots, solid original construction, and decades of accumulated living that shows in the best possible way. Newer homes in Tremont’s growing residential areas bring younger families into the community and create a housing stock that spans generations. In both cases, the homeowners here take their properties seriously. They maintain what they have. They invest thoughtfully. And when they hire someone to work on their home, they are hiring that person in front of their neighbors.
That context shapes everything about how Grace Built Construction approaches work in Tremont. We are not a large regional contractor who treats small communities as overflow markets. We are a Tazewell County contractor who understands that reputation in a village like Tremont is built project by project and that the work we do here is visible to the people who matter most to a homeowner — the ones who live nearby and know exactly what was there before and what is there now.
We work in Tremont with the same standards we bring to every community we serve — honest pricing, careful preparation, and finished results that hold up for years. We treat Tremont homes the way they deserve to be treated: as homes that matter to the people who live in them, in a community where quality is noticed.
Grace Built Construction offers a full range of residential remodeling and construction services to homeowners throughout Tremont and the surrounding southern Tazewell County area. Every service is delivered with the same planning, preparation, and attention to finished quality from first conversation to final walkthrough.
Full kitchen renovations including cabinetry, countertops, layout updates, flooring, lighting, and fixtures. Whether your Tremont home has an older farmhouse kitchen ready for a complete overhaul or a newer kitchen that just needs to be finished the right way, we build spaces that function the way you actually cook and live.
Complete bathroom renovations from straightforward updates to full primary bath transformations. Walk-in tile showers, soaking tubs, custom vanities, heated floors, and all associated plumbing rough-in handled as part of a single coordinated project.
Turning unfinished lower levels into livable, purposeful space. Family rooms, home offices, guest suites, playrooms, and home gyms — with proper egress, insulation, drywall, flooring, and lighting all part of the scope.
New square footage built to connect naturally with your existing Tremont home. Single room additions, master suite expansions, in-law suites, and larger multi-room builds all managed from design and permitting through construction and final walkthrough.
Hardwood, luxury vinyl plank, tile, and carpet installation with full subfloor assessment and preparation, removal of existing material, and complete transitions and molding included on every project.
Energy-efficient replacement windows and doors installed with proper flashing, sealing, and finished trim work. Single unit replacements through full home updates.
Custom decks in composite, cedar, or pressure-treated lumber and patios in pavers, natural stone, or poured concrete. Designed for Tremont's outdoor living culture and built to handle everything Illinois weather delivers across the seasons.
Built-in bookshelves, mudroom systems, custom closets, wainscoting, coffered ceilings, and finish millwork. Particularly valuable in older Tremont homes where original woodwork sets a standard that deserves to be matched rather than ignored.
Siding replacement in fiber cement, vinyl, or engineered wood; soffit and fascia; seamless aluminum gutters; and exterior trim work managed as a complete system from a single contractor who stands behind every component.
New drywall installation and repair, multi-coat finishing, texture matching, and interior painting with proper surface preparation at every stage.
Custom storage systems, epoxy and polyaspartic floor coatings, insulation and drywall, lighting upgrades, and full conversion projects for homeowners ready to make better use of attached or detached garage space.

Tremont is a village where contractor choices are made carefully and where the results of those choices are visible to everyone around you. Homeowners here are not making casual hiring decisions — they are putting their home and their neighborhood’s appearance in someone’s hands. Grace Built Construction has earned work in Tremont the same way we have earned it everywhere else: by being straight about what things cost, careful about how we work, and consistent about finishing what we start.
A large regional contractor with a full commercial pipeline does not give a Tremont home renovation the attention it deserves. Grace Built is a residential remodeling company. We take on projects we can execute well, staff them with a consistent crew, and manage them with the homeowner relationship — not a project manager managing a project manager — at the center.
Tremont has a meaningful inventory of older farmhouses and village homes with original construction methods, materials, and systems that require experienced hands. We do not open walls in a home like this casually. We assess what is there, plan for what we might find, and handle whatever comes up directly and transparently rather than treating it as a reason to add cost unexpectedly.
Many Tremont homeowners are in their homes full-time during a renovation. We plan project sequencing to minimize disruption, contain work areas carefully, clean up at the end of each day, and communicate clearly about what is happening and what comes next. A remodeling project should not feel like a loss of control over your own home.

In a community this size, a contractor who low-bids a project and adjusts the cost mid-job does not survive on word of mouth. Our estimates reflect the real cost of doing the work correctly, and they are itemized so Tremont homeowners know exactly what they are paying for before any work begins.
Every project ends with a walkthrough where we review the completed work together and address anything that needs attention. We do not consider a project done until you do — and we remain reachable after the job is closed if anything comes up.
Grace Built Construction has completed remodeling projects in Tremont and the surrounding southern Tazewell County area — in older village homes with original character, in farmhouses on the rural edges of the community, and in newer residential builds where homeowners are ready to move past the finishes the builder left behind.


In a village the size of Tremont, trust is not something a contractor can manufacture. It is built through consistent work, honest dealing, and results that speak for themselves when neighbors walk past and see what was built and how well it has held up. Grace Built Construction has built that trust in Tremont and throughout southern Tazewell County the same way — one project at a time, to a standard we are willing to put our name on.
We are fully insured and operate in compliance with all applicable building codes and permitting requirements. For projects requiring permits through the Village of Tremont or Tazewell County, we manage the full application and inspection coordination process as part of our standard project management. Tremont homeowners never need to deal with the permitting process on their own.
We bring a consistent crew to every project and work with a vetted network of licensed subcontractors for electrical, plumbing, and HVAC work where those trades are part of the scope. Every person who comes into a Tremont home on a Grace Built project is someone we trust and hold to the same standards we hold ourselves to.

Yes. Older homes in and around Tremont — including farmhouses with original construction methods, materials, and systems — make up a meaningful portion of our work in southern Tazewell County.

Kitchen remodeling, bathroom renovation, and basement finishing are the most frequent project types we handle in the Tremont area. Deck and patio construction is also common given the lot sizes and outdoor living culture of the community. Exterior remodeling — particularly siding and gutter work on older village homes — is a frequent project type as well.
Our pricing does not vary based on the size of the community. Every project is individually scoped and estimated based on what the work actually involves — materials, labor, permits, and subcontracted trades — not on a per-square-foot formula that does not reflect the real cost of the project. Tremont homeowners receive the same itemized, accurate estimates as homeowners in larger communities throughout the region.
The most important factors are consistent: honest pricing that does not shift mid-project, clear communication throughout the job, a crew that treats your home with respect, and a standard of finished work that you are willing to put your name on in front of your neighbors. References from completed projects in the area, verifiable insurance, and a clear written estimate before work begins are the baseline requirements. We meet all of them and are happy to discuss any of them in detail during the initial consultation.
If your Tremont home has a kitchen that stopped working for your family, a basement full of untapped potential, or a project that has been on your list long enough, Grace Built Construction is ready to help you get it done right. We serve Tremont and the surrounding southern Tazewell County area with honest estimates, experienced craftsmanship, and a remodeling process designed to produce results you are proud of in a community where results are visible.
