Knobel Kitchens and Baths, Wilmette IL

Knobel Kitchens and Baths in Wilmette has been around for a long while - since 1933 to be precise. Longer than any of their local competitors.

Owned by brothers Peter and Paul Knobel, along with Peter's son Mark, the company is three-generational. It was started by Peter's father's, a carpenter, in his basement, and then moved to a workshop in an area that is now the Mackenzie School field. In 1948, he bought the current building where they remain to this day on Washington Street just west of Green Bay Road.

The Knobel brothers are Certified Kitchen and Bath Designers, an accreditation given by the National Kitchen and Bath Association. They must take continuing education to retain this certification.

Knobel Kitchens and Baths is a full service company that will work with you to design and install your new kitchen or bath. They work with many designers and architects and are current on up-and-coming trends in the industry.

Peter says that white kitchens are still very popular, and darker woods are being used in innovative ways such as a walnut drawer head installed into a painted cabinet. Non-porous countertops such as Silestone, Cambria, and even Corian are being used more often because they don't require sealing like granite. Some of these materials are being made to look more similar to granite, which is still the favorite. LED lighting is being used more often in kitchens as well.

They also do many bathrooms, including masters that are incorporating deluxe features like extra-large showers with rainheads and body sprays, and even televisions being inserted into mirrors.
