Testimonials
My wife and I selected Charlie
Knapp to build our home back in 1997. We were very happy with the
building process and with the home we have been living in since.
Charlie, his wife, Ron , and the entire team were very easy to work with,
always seeking to involve us in decisions and striving for our satisfaction.
The quality of the construction, attention to detail, and overall
craftsmanship resulted in a custom built house that we plan to enjoy for
many years to come.

I cannot thank [Charlie Knapp Builders] enough for the outstanding work that you all
did on our family room and garage addition. This project exceeded our expectations in
every way. Your guidance and assistance with the entire process from the first phone
call we made to your office to the completion of the entire project was such an asset
in making this addition the dream project that it was. The high quality of work that the
entire crew did was beyond what we had ever envisioned. Specifically, we would like to
thank Ron for his superior carpentry. Our goal with the addition was to make sure that
it didn't look like an add-on, but rather looked as though an extension of our existing
house. Thanks to Ron's expertise, all of the woodwork was hand crafted to identically
match the original woodwork in the rest of the house. Every person that has seen the
addition has commented on the tremendous job performed by Charlie Knapp Builders. We highly
recommend your company to everyone that we talk to!

Charlie has built a house, done 2 remodels, 2 decks, and a tree damage repair for
us. He does excellent work, when he says he will do it, and at or below the estimate.
I have total trust in him. He is honest as the day is long, plus being a nice guy.

Working with Charlie and his extended team has been a true blessing
for our family. Charlie is honest, forthright, and responsive.
For these reasons we selected him as our builder over a decade ago and
remain tremendously pleased to this day. When people come to our home
for ideas on building, I will show them how incredibly precise Charlie's
framing is, down to the last eighth of an inch. And working with the
rest of his team, particularly Ron, was a very positive experience.
Since the original construction, there is only one number I ever call for
additional work and that is Charlie's. To be able to say that years
later is a special privilege.

There isn't a day that goes by that we do not say "bless this house" -- we
LOVE where we live and we adored working with Charlie, Paula, and Ron.
Our home is one of the smaller ones the Knapp's designed and built when we
decided we wanted my aged 90 year old mom to come live with us.
Many people have negative experiences when building a custom home, but
our experience with the Knapp's was a special and joyful time.

Bloomington
All of your employees were good to work with -- great bunch! Even
though I checked on your progress daily, there were so many things that
we had no clue about. CKB's honesty, especially when mistakes were
made, made a big impression. It speaks for your reputation as a
fine builder. We looked forward to building a new home and you
guys (and gal) made it pleasurable. Thanks.
--Jim and Pam Mullen, New Home, Rural Heyworth
The laborers/builders were very friendly. They both talked to me or my wife and
looked clean (good appearance). I am proud of the deck. Not a person has walked
by without saying how nice it looks. The quality is what I like the most. I don't
think any corners were cut to save time. They did a great job. I feel we got a job well done.
