Geoff Shinn

Owner, HomeGeneral | Nebraska & Iowa

Hello, I’m Geoff Shinn, owner of HomeGeneral. I was raised in the construction industry, starting out building garages with my father at a young age. Over 35 years I worked my way through large home exterior corporations, trained hundreds of home improvement specialists, and managed several franchises across the region.

Everywhere I went, one thing stood out: there had to be a better way to serve homeowners. I founded HomeGeneral in 2018 to close that gap. We bring better-engineered products to Nebraska and Iowa homeowners for far less than what the largest companies charge, and we back every project with a lifetime warranty on our workmanship. When we say we’ll be there, we mean it.

Geoff at Home General is basically a master class on how to conduct business and treat customers. He even made sure to fix issues that were caused by previous contractors’ mistakes. I especially love how he took the time to explain the why and how behind the work that was needed.
Looking forward to using Home General for any and all future projects. Thanks!!
