Real reviews from Lake Bluff and North Shore homeowners who chose Assembly Squad.
"We had our 1971 ranch completely renovated — new kitchen with an open floor plan, two bathrooms, and the basement converted to a home office and gym. Living in Lake Bluff and working from home, the basement was the most important space. Assembly Squad delivered everything fixed-price. Not a dollar over the quote."
"Kitchen remodeling in Lake Bluff done right. Illinois-made cabinets arrived in 5 weeks, the wall came down for a beautiful open floor plan, and the whole project was wrapped in 8 weeks on budget. Viktor's team handled the Village permits completely. The fixed price model is exactly what a renovation should be."
