I hired George Knorps / Nantucket Homes to build my custom dream home for my family. George and the team constructed an incredibly well built home including 2x6 dual insulated walls with Pella true divide light windows which have made for an extremely quiet and efficient home. He worked with me to select all custom marbles granites and fixtures as well as truly exceptional custom cherry cabinetry by his Amish cabinet builders. I have had many friends including builders, real estate brokers and decorators through the home over the years and received so many compliments. Thank you Nantucket for all your considerable time and talent.

We hired Nantucket Homes to finish our 1,200 sq ft basement and add high end features like a wine cellar, entertainment area, and wet bar. We love the result. The project was run on time, at budget, and our family loves spending time together in the space. George runs a professional company and I would hire him again.

Fantastic home designs! Nantucket Homes thinks about how a family will actually live in the space and incorporates personal styles into each project. This builder makes every effort to include the most recent technologies available in their homes. Top of the line, professional yet personal company.

I have used Nantucket Homes for a number of renovation projects over the past 7 years. These projects have included new windows, siding, stone and brick work on the exterior and laundry and bathroom redos on the interior. They always do an excellent job which is why I call Nantucket Homes first whenever I am ready to do any updating on my home.

We purchased a custom home built by George Knorps / Nantucket Homes many years ago. The construction of our home is exceptional. The high quality workmanship is visible throughout the home including Pella windows, solid core doors, and custom Amish cabinetry.
We have had several projects in our home over the last few years and once again
George has come through with very competitive costs and high quality work from all tradespeople. George oversees all details and offers his vast knowledge each step of the way. I would not hesitate to hire Nantucket Homes for any project and frequently recommend him to others.

Nantucket Homes transformed our home from cedar to a very attractive elegant stone and stucco. The change was so impressive, two of our neighbors hired Nantucket Homes for similar projects. This not only included the exterior recladding, but also a kitchen update, fixing structural problems, and landscape improvements that made our home more desirable to us and better for future resale.

George Knorps of Nantucket Homes built our house in Wilmette and his work was excellent. The house was well built and had no problems. George stood behind the warranty and repaired whatever needed fixing. George was a pleasure to deal with.

I hired George Knorps to do the renovations on my HGTV show Meg’s Great Rooms that we filmed in the Chicago area. He was wonderful to work with and was able to fit everything we needed in our crazy production timeline while still providing quality work.

We hired Nantucket Homes to finish our 1,300 sq ft basement located in the Glen. Nantucket designed and built a floor plan that met several needs including a theater/entertainment room with built in component storage, theater style lighting for artwork displays, a custom bar (with seating for four) with high end cabinetry, granite countertops, two separate rooms and a full bath. Nantucket installed an in floor heating system without having to sacrifice floor to ceiling height and ejector pumps allowed the flexibility to design around locational limitations of existing “roughed in” plumbing. They brought creative ideas to the development that we didn’t even think of. George’s many decades of experience were an incredible asset and his “team” of contractors were professional in every aspect of their work. We’ve enjoyed countless hours of fun family and friend experiences in the space. And during the pandemic, the space served as a new home office purpose that we certainly never imagined up until now. The Bank were I was employed at the time was also pleased to finance several Nantucket custom built homes and or remodels for clients throughout the North Shore. All clients had nothing but positive experiences with George and his team and I would highly recommend him for any home construction or remodel needs.

My wife and I first met George after he was hired as the contractor for the HGTV show we were on. He and his team did such a great job on the renovation that we used him on several subsequent projects, including building a beautiful stone fireplace in our living room and building a new deck in our backyard the next summer. George is thorough, fairly priced and just an overall great guy to work with.
