Client Reviews

What Winnetka Homeowners Say

Real reviews from Winnetka homeowners who trusted Assembly Squad with their historic homes.

"Our 1924 Tudor kitchen hadn't been touched since the 1960s. Assembly Squad understood the home's historic character completely — they preserved the original butler's pantry arch and built-ins while delivering a fully modern kitchen. Fixed price, delivered on time. This is exactly what Winnetka homes deserve."

David & Sarah W.
Winnetka, Illinois

"We did a whole home renovation on our 1930s Georgian colonial — kitchen, three bathrooms, and the basement finished as a home theater. Assembly Squad's fixed price never wavered. Illinois-made cabinets arrived in 5 weeks. The work is extraordinary. They understand what these homes require."
