Guinn Construction LLC

Pat and his crew are the best!!! Pat is excellent at what he does. He and his crew are very professional and strive for perfection. In addition, the people Pat has working for him are all highly skilled at what they do. We had an extensive gut and remodel of our newly purchased, neglected and outdated home which took several months to complete. Other than the structure itself and the windows, everything was replaced. Our home is over 30 years old, yet it is now like new. I absolutely love our "new" home! In working with Pat, I truly believe you get what you pay for. The remodel was not inexpensive but it was worth every penny to have the job done right the first time. I highly recommend Guinn Construction to anyone who wants superior workmanship and appreciates working with a contractor who cares about doing an exceptional job for his customer.

As a contractor that has worked for Guinn Construction, I can tell you that he is the most knowledgeable and organized contractor I have ever dealt with in my 25 years of business!!!

We've worked with Pat Guinn for many years and its always a great experience. His knowledge is extensive, and his work is exceptional. He treats his clients with consideration and respect and we are always happy to work with him on new projects.

Pat Guinn and his crew did a gut remodel of our kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and laundry room. They are the BEST! They are consummate professionals and nice guys to boot. Pat listened to all my ideas and did everything to create my dream kitchen. Pat is willing to rise to a challenge and he is open to working with new materials and products. I chose a floor that was quite heavy, Pat did research with the Marble Institute of America and made sure the necessary structural changes were implemented. They are not inexpensive, but the old adage "you get what you pay for" is true. A year later I still walk into my kitchen and can't believe it's my kitchen. It is not only beautiful, it is a cook's dream kitchen.

We have worked with quite a few general contractors, but nobody compares to Pat Guinn. His attention to detail, and execution of every step of the building process are absolutely flawless. As a subcontractor working for him, it's an honor to be part of the masterpiece he is creating. His vision, ingenuity, and quality craftsmanship impel us to provide our absolute best product as well. If jaw dropping perfection is what you seek in building your custom home, I would honestly say there is no one I have ever met better than Pat Guinn. We would be honored to have the opportunity to be part of any Guinn Construction project in the future.

I have to absolutely agree with the other earlier reviews here. If your project has to be right, the only person to call is Pat Guinn. He was responsible for our new home construction back in 2001. Our design criteria was unlike anything he had done at the time. We wanted a traditional 2 story from the street, but 21st century high tech and open concept inside. Pat was instrumental in making sure every detail was perfect. And I mean every detail. A lot of homes look good until you spend time checking out the little things. Every joint, every finish, was perfect. In 13 years I still have not decided what my favorite room in the house is. They are all perfect! The kitchen we chose was more difficult than most, as the cabinets ha to be partially assembled su to their custom stainless steel trim and our desire for a bay window where the counter tops flowed into it. It came out perfect, better than we hoped for. See the pic below: http://www.houzz.com/photos/800293/Kitchen-contemporary-kitchen-chicago I cannot overstate just how good Pat is. We have lived in the house 13 years now, and there has literally been no issues at all. Not one. That is unheard of in a new home. Pat and his crew does hundreds of little things that one never sees that ensures the house "feels" new decades later. Another tidbit: when the hardwood floor guy was laying out the main level floor, he told us the house was less that 1/8" out of square in a 55' long open concept space. He needed a laser to find that. Simply unheard of. If it absolutely has to be right, call Pat Guinn. Don & Amy Naglich

We have experience with Patrick Guinn over a period of 20 years. He worked on our home when it was originally built 21 years ago. In the past 4 years, we have completed some remodeling work with Guinn Construction. Patrick has excellent design ideas that are very functional and aesthetically pleasing. He is very organized with planning and implementation of the work. We believe we obtained an excellent finished product and received significant value which has enhanced the value of our home. His workers are pleasant and professional. We would highly recommend Patrick for any general construction work, remodeling or new. We believe that you will be as satisfied as we have been with Guinn Construction.

We must begin by giving Mr. Patrick Guinn our very highest recommendation without any reservations whatsoever. His craftsmanship, enthusiasm, knowledge and especially his honesty and integrity are truly unparalleled. He can design and build anything. He first built our colonial style house in 2003. He then finished our walk out basement in an authentic Japanese style in 2005, complete with cherry trim, rice paper shoji screens and antique furniture from Japan. He then topped this all off with a our new 1,800 square foot addition finished and furnished in a classic Swedish Gustavian manner. The depth and breadth of his knowledge is exceptional. He has installed a wide range of features in our house and others such as tin ceilings, floor to ceiling library shelves, cast iron stoves, gymnasiums with full size basketball courts and truly amazing paneling. In our case, he has done remarkable things for our pets, including a dog shower, cat and dog doors and built in self cleaning litter boxes with a nearby motion detector activated fan which has eliminated all of the kitty odors. He has even built us a custom dog crate that fits under our kitchen counter, passes through the wall and then fits underneath the mudroom counter. This crate has a hand fashioned door on each end that allows access from both rooms and plenty of space and openings so that our dog sees it as his little home. Mr. Guinn can work at any level, from Kitchenaid to Wolf and from Benjamin Moore to Farrow and Ball. Finally, and probably most importantly, is Mr. Guinn's exceptional character. He is truly honest and fair. He enjoys unique requests and likes problem solving, all the while trying to keep the costs down and the quality high. He will pitch in wherever necessary and work weekends to meet deadlines. He will never, ever breach his client's trust. We are very lucky to have found him.
