Kitchen Kraft

“Had a great experience with Trish and the team at Kitchen Kraft. Design went smoothly, she was responsive and it was great. The vendor had some problems with production of cabinets but the team was on it and worked with the vendor to correct the errors. cabinets are beautiful and the kitchen looks great!”
Wendy Wilson & Associates
Kitchen Designers
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 2, 2013
“Wendy Wilson did the design of my major home remodel that included the removal of a load-bearing wall, a room addition, and extensive remodeling of existing spaces. She listened to my ideas, added her design expertise, and developed the plans. She was a pleasure to work with, always focusing on what was important to me and what was consistent with the quality I was looking for. Her design ideas were fantastic for my project. She helped me interview contractors, and each one we talked to praised the completeness and quality of her drawings. She ushered the project through the design approval process with the city, so all I had to do was go pay for the building permits. She assisted me in the oversight of all phases of the construction. I'd hire her again in a minute, and highly recommend her services. I now truly love my home for the first time since we bought it in 1974.”

“I never thought that everything my wife and I shared with Eric during the whole process would come to reality. Especially within budget! From the very first sit down to the final walk through he was right there with us. We had tons of questions and he answered every one of them. He showed us both how easy it is take a house with walls and floors and make it our very own home. The detail was amazing. Thank you especially for making it useable, not just ‘frills’.”
Drury Design
Kitchen Designers
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsDecember 18, 2012
“I have worked with Tina Muller in Drury Design to remodel 4 spaces: kitchen, powder room, hall bath and master bath. I have to say, Tina is exceptional to work with. She is also very personable, understanding and patient with clients. Our old space was old and gloomy. We had been in the house for 7-8 years. With so many inspirations we found at Houzz.com and all the magazines, we could not decide exactly what our style is: traditional, modern, contemporary, ... as we like a little bit of everything, but most of all simple, functional, beautiful. Naturally, the design requirements we had given out to Tina for our relevant small-space kitchen and bath were functional, spacious and elegantly zen. On top of that, I had also requested lots of storage in all the spaces so we can keep things away yet accessible easily. I am very impressed with Tina and her work. She was able to sort through and filter our input to pinpoint what our style is in 2 appointments (the free consultation appointment and the subsequent appointment). In the subsequent appointments, we were able to tweak the design to meet all our needs. As we went through the entire process, Tina always made herself available to us with additional design needs, shopping, and picking out the right wall colors. Additionally, the Drury Design is a full-service design firm that I also utilized for project management, installation services. They work with high quality partners and suppliers for my appliances, granite, tiles, lighting needs... Here is a little secret: They really do stand by their projects, products, and services. You get what you pay for and you do pay for quality work and product but they don't nickel and dime you per hour. Thinking back, it was an ambitious project. We are very thankful to work with such a professional team. Tina and the Drury Design team has transformed our 25-year-old house into a beautiful, relaxing, inviting space. We are very happy with the work, the team and the services.”
Dave Fox Design Build Remodelers
Kitchen Designers
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJune 27, 2013
“We did a complete renovation of our master bath. Our main goals were to make the room handicapped accessible, easy to clean and to increase shower and vanity space. In order to gain every precious inch, we removed a linen cupboard and stole a foot of depth from the back of our daughter's closet. We had a variety of specialists in and out of our home. Everyone was courteous and hard-working. No one smoked in or outside of my home and workers cleaned up after themselves every day. I was kept up to date on each step of the project and never felt as if our job was a lower priority to Dave Fox. The project is complete and we love the new space! By moving the location of the shower and vanity, the room seems so much larger. We were also able to keep the window, which I had thought we'd lose in order to gain storage. I have nothing but good things to say about Dave Fox Home Remodeling.”

“Usable Space Interiors, put an addition on for our family, garage addition and bedroom, bathroom,closet etc. Pamela Standish gave us several ways for us to maximize our space that frankly we never considered. The input for design, and the overall project way invaulable for us as well as cost saving. I feel confident in recommending Usable Spaces Interiors to friends and family.”
Dream Baths by Kitchen Kraft
Kitchen Designers
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJanuary 19, 2014
“We are in the process of renovating two full baths and one half bath. Dream Bath has been easy to work with, explained everything, didn't use pressure for the sale and gave us a chance to review the contract before making a decision. We interviewed seven businesses before making a decision and all of them only offered to cover the existing area or offered inexpensive looking surrounds. Dream Baths offered the tile we wanted, showed us a design created for us instead of "this is what I have", and Dream Baths price was in the same range as the cheap looking estimates. Al, the designer, came up with great ideas that fit our style and walked us through the process of selecting the materials. Justin, the project manager, really knows the engineering aspect of the project. Jeff, the craftsman, is neat, hard working and is doing an excellent job. His attention to detail is perfect. He is treating our home like he is working on his own. Dream Baths worked with us on the time line, because although we signed the contract in October, we didn't want to start the work until after the holidays. We are very pleased with every phase of working with Dream Baths and would recommend them to anyone who is looking for a bathroom remodel.”
Skydell Contracting Inc.
Kitchen Designers
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJanuary 5, 2014
“Skydell Contracting did an amazing job. Although this was a Master Bath renovation, the project could be viewed as new construction. What a fabulous project this bathroom came to be. The project managers and the staff at Skydell were always professional. When issues did arise, the owner Richard Skydell was immediately there to ascertain the problem and was quick to offer options. We had some of our own ideas that were always welcomed. We would certainly recommend these folks who can handle everything for your home. The bathroom involved total demolition of the existing bath, new insulation and walls. New plumbing, water closet, installation of carrera stone work, electrical and all woodwork. We are very happy with the outcome.”
Brian David Roberts | Interior Planning & Design
Kitchen Designers
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsSeptember 4, 2013
“After much searching and disappointment trying to find an interior designer, we found Brian and believe we hit gold. We hired Brian to redesign our existing kitchen and master bath. Neither of us had ever remodelled a house. We had an idea of how we wanted the areas to feel but didn't know how to make it happen. Brian asked the right questions about our family to come up with a number of different options on how we can make the best use of our spaces. He really thought of everything when it came to functionality especially for the kitchen; for us, our kitchen really is the heart of the home and not just somewhere to eat. We believe the final product that was provided will help make the remodelling process as economical and smooth as possible. Brian was easily accessible during his design process and afterward asking us the status of our project.”
Design by the Jonathans
Kitchen Designers
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsSeptember 3, 2017
“Jonathan took the vision I had for our living room and made it a reality. He shared his tips and introduced us to local antique shops and professionals. Old furniture touched up and reupholstered along with unique touches, like Moroccan window screens as valances, make the room feel personal and inviting. I would work with Jonathan again and recommend him in a heartbeat.”

Kitchen and Bathroom Designer FAQs
The duration of a kitchen design project varies widely based on scope, but a complete kitchen renovation can typically take 3 to 6 months from initial design to completion. Planning and design might take 1 to 2 months, while construction and installation will take another 2 to 4 months. Remember, customization and material availability can impact these timelines.
Kitchen designers are knowledgeable about the latest design trends and materials, ensuring your kitchen is both stylish and functional. Sustainable materials and smart kitchen technologies are currently popular, as are designs that promote open spaces and natural light. Quartz remains a top choice for countertops due to its durability and aesthetic variety. Your designer can help you navigate these options, balancing current trends with timeless design principles.
Before consulting a kitchen designer, gather inspiration (photos, magazines, online boards) to clarify your aesthetic preferences. Also, think critically about your budget and functional needs (e.g., cooking habits, number of users, storage requirements). Being clear about your needs and wants will help the designer create a tailored solution.
The most common challenges include staying within budget, making decisions among numerous options, and managing the disruption of construction. Experienced kitchen designers address these by establishing a clear budget upfront, guiding homeowners in making informed decisions, and creating a detailed project timeline. Regular communication is key to navigating unforeseen issues smoothly.
Expect regular updates and open communication channels throughout your project. Professional kitchen designers often use project management software to track progress and decisions, ensuring transparency. Meetings at key milestones for approvals and feedback are standard. Itʼs reasonable to expect responsiveness within 24-48 hours for any inquiries you may have during the project.
To achieve a balance between trendiness and timelessness, focus on incorporating trends through easily changeable elements like paint colors or hardware, while keeping foundational elements (e.g., cabinetry, flooring) classic and durable. Your kitchen designer can guide you in selecting materials and designs that reflect current trends without sacrificing longevity or comfort.
