They did my kitchen two years ago and just finished our bathrooms. It is a delight to have Charlie and his crew in our home. Everything was always clean and tidy. Charlie went the distance in helping us make choices and did some customization to meet our desires. And, as before, the results were outstanding. **★★★★★ — Annette Gof, March 2024** > Highly recommended kitchen design company. Amazing attention to detail. Super polite, knowledgeable and dog friendly. Explains every step as he goes. If your looking in re-doing your kitchen, Charlie's definitely the guy. **★★★★★ — Dawn Carlson, Aug. 2022** > Kitchen Solvers of Grayslake is phenomenal to work with. They worked with us from design, stayed within our budget, and were a pleasure to work with. Their work is impeccable, they were always on time. Also after each day, they left the kitchen and workspace clean. They finished the project as promised and their professionalism is top notch. I would highly recommend them to anyone for any kitchen needs. **★★★★★ — HU-776568086, Feb. 2022** > Kitchen Solvers did a perfect job of solving our "kitchen cabinet depression". They finished our project ahead of schedule yesterday and I must say that the transformation was perfect. Also exemplary was the working relationship Charlie built with us right from the beginning. Kitchen Solvers provided the right product/service at the right price point. **Comment from Kitchen Solvers of Grayslake:** > Thank you so much! It was our pleasure to work with you on your kitchen project. It's wonderful to hear how much you are loving your new kitchen. **★★★★★ — HU-310386593, Feb. 2021** > Charlie’s attention to detail is what sets him apart from other kitchen remodeling businesses. He doesn’t stop until everything is perfect! **★★★★★ — HU-842866226, Nov. 2020** > Charlie was a pleasure to work with regarding my new kitchen countertops & backsplash. He went above & beyond every step of the way to make sure I got exactly what I wanted, while also providing an outstanding customer experience. Charlie was super responsive & checked-in often. I never had to wonder about next steps as Charlie always made sure I knew what to expect. I was quite comfortable trusting his management of the process. When installation began, he arrived promptly with a very experienced & professional team. When the countertops were done, they were mindful of my home & cleaned up well. There was nothing for me to do, but enjoy my new countertops. The next day was the installation of the backsplash, again, Charlie showed up promptly with an experienced professional to do the job. The entire experience was a pleasure and the end result exceeded expectations. I highly recommend Kitchen Solvers of Grayslake & the exceptional teams they work with! ## Selected projects - [Sparkling Transitional Transformation](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/sparkling-transitional-transformation-pj-vj~7890183) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 7 - Description: This Grayslake homeowner was ready for a kitchen update that felt fresh, functional, and timeless—without the need for a full tear-out.
