My wife and I hired TR Knapp Architects for our front porch project. Thomas was a pleasure to work with. He prepared architect plans quickly to submit to the city building department, and also made several changes and re-submitted the plans in a timely manner. He always had our best interest in mind, and answered our many calls quickly, finding solutions to help our project along. We had no issues with the timeline, Thomas was always prompt, stayed within our original budget, and worked very quickly as many changes were made along the way. Thomas finished the project meeting with the city building department expediting our permit. We are very happy with the whole experience having Thomas guide us through the labyrinth of red tape in working with the city building department. We would highly recommend TR Knapp Architects to anyone involved in a building project. Thomas proved to be highly professional, knowledgable, and experienced in getting the job done right! We are extremely happy with the outcome of this project thanks to TR Knapp Architects.

I highly recommend Thomas Knapp. He is very pleasant to deal with and he has a great sense of design. Thomas suggested the addition of a patio with arbor to our redesign and that suggestion (along with the rain chain!) really made a huge difference. Our house looks amazing. I was outside painting this past weekend and everyone walking by stopped to tell me how fantastic our "new" house looks. I was out of sight around the corner when a small group of girls walked by and one of them shouted out "That house is beautiful!" When does a 12 year old girl even notice a house? I guess when Thomas Knapp designs it. lol.

We were introduced to Tom through our general contractor. Tom was very professional and reliable. He brought new ideas to the project that we did not even think of that help enhance our project to improve the curb appeal to our home. I would recommend TR Knapp Architects for your home remodeling projects big and small.

Tom Knapp was highly recommended to us by close friends; our contractor also encouraged us to pursue Tom for our home improvement project. We have not regretted our decision to hire Tom as his visions for our home transformed our Cape Cod. His ability to listen to our "must haves" as well as our "if only" while offering insightful suggestions helped us transform our home. Tom's professional attitude and his expertise were essential; the stress on the project never became too much thanks to Tom's ability to listen to our needs, wants, and desires. Upon final payment for the plans, Tom could have walked away but he was so invested in our home and our family that he would visit the project to offer support and share a laugh or two. We couldn't be happier with Tom's services and we are still in awe of our home which truly was "transformed." We are very grateful that Tom worked with us and we highly recommend Tom Knapp Architects.

As a builder in Naples, Florida, we recommend Thomas and his team at TR Knapp Architects to anyone in the Chicago Metro Area, as well as anyone who owns in Naples, Bonita Beach, or Marco Island, who wants to either design and build a custom home, or wants to remodel a luxury home or condo.
Thomas understands that you want your own special place, that reflects your style and taste. It is imperative that you trust the team you have chosen to design your dream. TR Knapp Architects is a team you can trust and we highly recommend them.

I had a fire in July 2014 and was told of Mr. Knapp and his company by my ex-husband's niece; who at the time was not an licensed Architect yet is now. She spoke very highly of him and recommended Mr. Knapp to me. My contractor and I spoke with him and asked many question. We both were extremely satisfied with him and his answers and the price he set for our needs. At anytime we called him to reach out for help he returned the call in a good timely manner; always eager to help and assist in anyway. Mr. Knapp not only complete and delivered his work on timely manner but showed me through his blue prints how highly educated and professional his work was. I never realized the work involved. I showed everyone with my story. Mr. Knapp's blue prints were amazing. Also he show me empathy for one of the most difficult situation I had ever been confronted with, the fire. He treated me as if I was his friend and was sincerely concerned for me. He moved quickly never delayed knowing his actions would postpone my contractors job. I now am back in my beautiful home and hope to have the opportunity to recommend him and his job well done to someone in need someday. Thank you again Mr. Knapp it was a pleasure and benefitted me doing business with you. Sincerely Ms. Linda Kremm, Lockport, IL

TR Knapp Architects designed a bedroom/bath/walk-in closet addition over our 2 car garage and designed the necessary changes needed to repurpose an existing bedroom into a second floor laundry room. Tom was easy to work with, knew specs and code requirements, and drew up the blueprints in a timely manner. We were completely satisfied with his services.

We hired Tom to design a gut renovation on the 1st floor and an addition of a 2nd story. He had fantastic ideas for possible layouts and gave us ideas on how to use space that we would never have considered. You only have to ask him for changes once, and he is very quick to respond. All of the contractors and folks at the Village commented that our architect knew what he was doing and was extremely detailed. Even after we had our permit and he was fully paid, Tom was always willing to help if the Village required further information.

If we build a house, we'll use Tom without a doubt. I couldn't recommend him enough.

TR Knapp Architects ROCK!!!!

Very good relationship with the project manager. We were highly satisfied with the project, all plans and drawings.Excellent service. Enjoyable experience

Very professional, very quick response, and Thomas did exactly he said he will do for me and best part is very reasonablly price for all the service he performed (even through my job is small). He gave me in my opinion just as good of service as of a million dollr job. Very for sure you him again. Thanks very much for your help. Keep up the good work.
