Our kitchen was rebuild in 2000 as part of an addition by Bill Prachnick of Architectural Kitchens; we liked the design, layout and functionality so much that Bill did a rebuild of our kitchen from an unfortunate water pipe flood in the fall of 2019. AKI also rebuilt the rest of the house that was damaged, including four bathrooms, a family room, basement home theater and mudroom. Bill has a great eye for design and detail; his craftsmanship is outstanding and he uses high end/good quality materials. He is resourceful and a wealth of information for designing kitchens and bathrooms. Bill is organized and easy to work with and we cannot thank him enough for all of his time and help in rebuilding our home from our flood. His team is talented, professional, honest and hardworking.
AKI can be on the higher side for his proposals, however, in our case, he was competitive with other builders. He is mindful of keeping costs in line with his estimates and he is open to eliminating things while working within a budget.

We hired Architectural Kitchens to remodel our entire kitchen, replacing everything except the floors. We were very pleased with their work. The job was completed on time and the crew was great to work with. Bill was very helpful with planning the design and selecting materials. He even went to the tile store and granite company with me to help pick out patterns and materials that worked amazingly well with the overall design. We were impressed with the attention to detail of Architectural Kitchens' crew and the subcontractors were also great. Bill was responsive to our questions and always aware of the status of the project; he has a refreshing hands on approach to supervising the progress of the work that we have not experienced with other contractors. We felt like we had the "A Team" throughout the process. We would highly recommend Architectural Kitchens to anyone who wants high quality work that is completed on time.

Bill Pratchnik and his crew did a complete kitchen remodel for us. It was a big job that took about four months, and involved completely demolishing the old kitchen and butler's pantry, and installing all new appliances, cabinetry, lighting, flooring, ceiling beams, and countertops. Bill and Nicole gave us sound and practical advice from the design phase on, improving plans our architect had drawn up. The crew was professional, friendly and courteous, and came every day, exactly when they said they would. All milestones were met exactly when they were projected to, and the project was completed exactly on time and exactly on budget. There were no surprises. Even now, more than a year later, if I have a question or issue, Bill is happy to send someone over to tighten a cabinet hinge or reconnect a loose wire. The finished room is beautiful and functional and suits us perfectly. I recommend Architectural Kitchens with the utmost confidence and enthusiasm.

No need to look anywhere else for a kitchen designer and contractor for your home. Bill Prachnik and his team are the BEST! Professional, creative, thoughtful, courteous and a pleasure to work with. Bill is meticulous and his experience priceless. He and his team provide the highest quality work and outstanding service. We have worked with several contractors on other major home construction projects and not one even comes close to the level of service and quality provided by Architectural Kitchens. We came in exactly on budget and on time. We absolutely love our kitchen, it is a masterpiece and, by far, our favorite room in the house!

We hired Bill Prachnik (owner of Architectural Kitchens) to renovate our kitchen and family room in June, 2017. Bill's design completely transformed our space. His ideas were fantastic and the quality and workmanship are outstanding. We could not be happier with the finished product. The project was finished on time and on budget. We would hire Bill again without hesitation.

Bill gave me my dream kitchen. We were building a home and Bill designed the kitchen, before the architect even completed home designs. He brings to the table a very robust understanding of a construction projection that pushes well past kitchen cabinetry. In our pantry his suggestions have resulted in a more functional space. In our dining room, when he viewed our plans, he suggested a symmetry to the room given the coffered ceilings that hadn't been pursued. One day in an recall being stressed about the master bedroom plan and Bill took one look and offered his input. Bill picked up on errors in the project and made sure to advocate for us as the house was being built. If you are looking for someone who will be your yes-man, that's not Bill. He really really cares about the project. He will tell you if you are making a mistake (we went to battle over a countertop and Bill won- and he was totally right!). He will write you back to your emails and if you're a crazy perfectionist client (like me) he will meet you there because he is a perfectionist as well. In our home build, we worked for 2.5 years from land to move in. Many, many contractors. When I stand in my beloved kitchen, I know he was the best!!!!

We hired Architectural Kitchens to design and do the construction on a complete kitchen remodel, and are completely happy about all phases of the project. Bill Prachnick is a wonderful designer and builder, and we appreciated his insights as we reconfigured the kitchen. Joe Borbone, who supervised the building project day-to-day, couldn't have been nicer or more capable. They were both unflappable when things came up (the tile we chose arrived much later from the manufacturer than promised, once I locked the builders out, etc.). The project kept to the original tight timeline remarkably well. We appreciated their judgement, experience, and the high standard of their work. Now that we have been using the kitchen for several months, I appreciate Bill's careful design even more, as well as the quality of the work and cabinetry. Bill gave as much design advice as we needed, and told us the pros and cons of our options, without being overbearing. Architectural Kitchens was fairly priced for a high quality product, and I recommend them without hesitation.

Comment from Architectural Kitchens Inc.:
Thank you Jane and Neil, it was a please working with you!
I knew the second I met Bill he was the right person to renovate our kitchen. Knowledgeable, professional, and meticulous attention to detail are all Bill's trademarks. His staff is much the same. He gave great advice on the mechanical and technical aspects, and his eye for design is unmatched. Their cabinetry is stunning and he will customize even the smallest detail to the client's specifications. Each layer of the project moved seamlessly, and despite the scope of the project we did not feel as much disruption as we could have. I would highly recommend Architectural Kitchens, they are in a league of their own with quality.

When a friend of mine talked of hiring Architectural Kitchens repeatedly and said their cabinets are "stunning," I decided to hire Bill Prachnik to design custom cabinets for a family bathroom remodel two years ago. He gave great design advice, too, which added value to the whole project. This year, when we realized it was time to gut our kitchen and start from scratch, I knew I wanted high quality cabinets to pass the test of time, so I turned to Architectural Kitchens once again. I turned the entire project over the their team, including installation of hardwood floors, custom cabinetry, countertops, lighting, and appliances. I am SO glad I did. The whole process was seamless, thanks to an entire team of smart, talented, respectful professionals who paid attention to details and treated my home with care. Bill knew how to assist with design choices so my kitchen looks state-of-the art. I'm truly proud of my new kitchen, which was ready, as promised, for Thanksgiving, and I appreciate the work ethic at Architectural Kitchens. I would highly recommend them to any other homeowner.
