I have known Dan Miller over the years and have trusted him with our home projects in the past. In his new role as owner of Borealis Homes, LLC we wondered how things would work out. I contacted Dan about a small project and advised that it needed to be done within 10 days. In less than two days Dan and his crew came over and completed the job quickly and professionally.
It was a busy week for them but they made sure my little issue was resolved.
Borealis Homes, LLC will be our go-to firm for jobs around our house and we have already signed them up for an airport run and a home checkup while we are gone.
I highly recommend this firm.

5 Stars to Dan Miller and his crew. They were gentlemen and did a fantastic job. They were clean, efficient and the price agreed upon, based on certain criteria, was KEPT. I will be calling them again. Thank You Borealis Homes!

My husband and I have had the privilege of using Dan Miller for our home maintenance on Big Glen Lake for over 15 years now. We sleep comfortably back in our home in Illinois knowing our lake house is high on Dan’s priority list. Dan is a talented and thoughtful person who knows how to get any home problem solved in a very timely manner. We are so excited for Dan as he starts his new adventure, Borealis Homes. We hope others will enjoy what we have these past 15 years!

Over the last 10 + years, Dan Miller has been instrumental in the maintenance and upkeep of our home. He has a keen eye for design and is a pleasure to work with. He goes above and beyond what is expected: from picking up my daughter at the airport, to building our grandkids a playhouse, to creating the most gorgeous planters, his work is incomparable! He will respond quickly, especially if you have an emergency, and always is respectful and kind. He truly loves the work he does and values his relationships with his clients. We can’t wait to continue to work with him for years to come!
