Mid Century Mod
Knutson Custom Construction was a supportive creative collaborator from design to build in the renovation project to achieve our dream home. The design team was flexible and encouraging as we added to or modified the plan during the construction process. The building crew was professional, talented and engaging. My input was considered and often sought. It was clear my satisfaction in the final product was the goal. People often talk about how stressful home building can be. While we certainly faced some unavoidable challenges, overall I found the experience uniquely enjoyable….Allison

Organic Timeless Natural
We have been humbled by everyone's hard work, efficiency, and kindness throughout the project. A special thanks to Tim and Jim for spending so much time on site and going above and beyond to make all the details (Tim's tile magic and Jim's wall texture artistry come immediately to mind - both of which have been getting rave reviews), to Andrew for problem-solving with us on short notice, and of course to Erica for taking us from start to finish and bringing the whole thing to life - as well as to the many hands like Mark who got us seedily through those early stages with care and attention to detail. Ok, that was a long sentence! But it is so long only because we are so thrilled with the final product, which has enhanced our daily lives by a thousand percent. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Knutson Custom Construction has a wonderful reputation, and after working with them on our recent home project I can absolutely see why. Their craftsmanship, attention to detail, and quality of work was amazing. They treated our entire project as if it was their own: seeing that items were completed to perfection. I'm so happy with the work they did for us and couldn't imagine anyone else doing a better job. Andy & Jacqueline Weyrauch

Clean Simple Beauty
I love my new kitchen in my old house! Style and function, there was no compromise! Before the remodel, only one cook could fit in the kitchen, now my husband can teach the kids how to cook and we didn’t have to add one square foot. The construction team were true professionals, very courteous and extremely talented! - Happy in Duluth

Modern Industrial Flair
I just wanted to thank you for your hard work and talent! We are so pleased with the basement. Our boys have just been running in circles down there, and Jasper has the biggest smile I have seen in a long time (pumped about his bed). I am seriously over the moon about that fireplace; it is exactly what I had pictured and hoped for! You do great work, and I will definitely be recommending you to friends and family! Looking forward to the bathroom vanity top coming in and having our whole home back in working order & not just having our 2 bedroom apartment (upstairs). I know things have been a little crazy with the whole COVID thing and I felt like your workers never skipped a beat especially- Mark, Tim, Jim and his son (forgot his name); they were creative, friendly and diligent. Wishing you and your team a great summer. Sincerely, The Zemler Crew

Modern Rustic Charm
Everyone worked hard and was respectful. The job moved along consistently until it was finished. Everything looks great. One of my best friends is the sister of Andrew Knutson, a partner in Knutson Construction. So I spoke with Andrew about a bid on my remodeling project to be done by Knutson. I interviewed a few other reputable companies in the area and decided to go with Knutson because I had seen the quality of their work and I trusted him and his family. Andrew brainstormed remodeling ideas with me and the team went to work. Everyone worked hard and was respectful. The job moved along consistently until it was finished. Everything looks great. All the work was done professionally. I have no complaints. Knutson does quality work.

Clean Classic Function
I knew I needed and wanted my 1970s kitchen remodeled. I reached out to Knutson Custom Construction because they came highly recommended. I had no idea what I wanted the new kitchen to look like but they had their own interior designer that sat down with us. Along with her recommendations and our suggestions we came up with the perfect design. The remodel crew was amazing. Always checking in with us. Together we built the perfect kitchen that I am still enjoying today. My only question is..Why didn’t I do it earlier? Thanks Knutson Custom Construction crew!...Jill

Comfort Warm Function
It was truly a pleasure to work with Andrew and his team. From the planning stage to the construction, tile work, finish work, and everything else was 5 starz. The finished product is outstanding and you can tell the quality of craftsmanship that went into the work. KCC is an outstanding company that produces excellent results. We are thankful we chose them. We decided to add a master suite on top of our existing house. When choosing a contractor for this additional, we chose Knutson because of their reputation for quality work and design. From the very start Andrew was easy to work with and had many suggestions on ideas/products. Andrew and Aaron kept us informed with the process and were very helpful throughout the design and building phases. The sub contractors they used were excellent and easy to work with.
