Our infinite Thank You’s to the dream team of Tracy and Jeff at Kitchen Inspiration, for designing and executing their transformative magic, giving us an amazing kitchen and beautiful guest bathroom. I also want to acknowledge and share my gratitude to the daily crew members who dedicated long days and worked tirelessly for the duration of our project.
With so many people remodeling this year, we feel so fortunate that we found Tracy and Jeff when we did! Tracy and Jeff are sharp, superbly organized, detail-oriented, professional, knowledgeable and patient. I also want to mention and they will explain this as well, is that they truly dedicate themselves to your project. This team is expertly efficient, they won't disappear for days/weeks at a time.
It was an absolute pleasure working with you both. Wishing you a wonderfully successful 2021 and we will see you in 2022! ;-)

I originally contacted Tracy to do “a little upgrading” to my kitchen and to add hardwood floors to my dining room. After consulting with Tracy, I realized my “little upgrade” would not suffice as she had so many good ideas. After consulting with Tracy and Jeff (contractor), I decided to to remodel my kitchen, family room, living room and dining room. I had some ideas of what I wanted and Tracy incorporated my ideas into her designs. Tracy assisted me in choosing the kitchen appliances, tile for the kitchen and family room, the electric fireplace, etc. Tracy said the project would take 2 months to complete (started in Sept 2020 and completion in Nov 2020). Once the construction started, Jeff and his team moved like a well oiled machine. They moved all the furniture into the garage and then began deconstructing my kitchen, family room, and living room.
I would check on their progress weekly and was amazed how quickly the remodel was occurring. The plans Tracy drew up on paper was coming into fruition and it was more impressive seeing it in person than seeing it on paper.
Anytime I had questions, I would either text or call Tracy and/or Jeff and they would get back to me ASAP. The project was completed in 7 weeks, 1 week earlier than projected. So many people warned me that remodels will take longer than projected and expect it to take 3-4 months to complete. I was so pleased that Tracy and Jeff were true to their word and actually completed the remodel early.
I would highly recommend Tracy and Jeff to anyone considering a kitchen remodel. In fact my sister was so impressed with them that she hired Tracy to remodel her house in Atherton.. Another friend contacted Tracy to remodel her house also.

We found Kitchen Inspiration from a friend's recommendation and they were absolutely amazing to work with. They helped us plan, design, and remodel our home we purchased in 2020. We told Tracy (designer) and Jeff (contractor) what we envisioned for our remodeling. They came up with a proposal and were able to make adjustments to hit our budget. Tracy and Jeff helped us pick out the right materials for the house, gave us great advice based on their experience, and made the entire process smooth and painless. Even after moving in for a month, Jeff was more than happy to help with any minor touch ups. Tracy and Jeff went above and beyond to help us with whatever we needed and we're very happy with our newly remodeled home.

There's too many good things I can say about Kitchen Inspiration, but I'll keep it short and talk about things that matter the most:
* Professional: Tracy is a great project manager who guided us for literally everything: what are phases, when to prepare what, material recommendation, planning, execution, progress tracking, etc. Tracy and Jeff always find a good balance of what we want vs what's practical.
* Execution time: Our project was postponed because of COVID-19 when everything was shutdown around March. They informed us to start around June when they are confident the project can finish in time. Our original planned time is 12 weeks. Guess what, if it is not delayed by the city permit for a week or two, they could have finished the project in 8 weeks! The team only work in business hours and cleaned the work site every single day. Our place is a condo and all of our neighbors told us they are the best contractor ever met.
* No hidden cost: The estimation of the labor cost is very accurate. Tracy always discuss with us if any change needed (or recommended). They not just want to get the job done, but want our place in great shape in the long run.
* Great outcome: I visited the site often and see how things change over time. If they break things, they will fix them. They will "redo" anything until we are satisfied. They also come and fix anything after the project is completed. Jeff has a great team and they are proud of every project they completed.

I just finished my kitchen renovation in record time with ZERO stress. I’ve waited for this moment for over 15 years. I greatly appreciate Tracy Yan and her team at Kitchen Inspiration, Inc. They provided excellent service, detailed knowledge, expert follow through and unlimited tenacity, these amazing folks completed the entire process in under three weeks. Tracy listened to all of my design and functional needs, and delivered a stellar plan that far exceeded my expectations. Jeff managed the project flawlessly with a wonderfully productive crew, great communication, consulted on key decisions and delivered everything on time...head of schedule actually. Kitchen Inspiration is unmatched and I highly recommend them to ANYONE looking to renovate a kitchen on the SF Peninsula! Outstanding work!

Tracy goes above and beyond our expectations to help us order and deliver our kitchen cabinets. The cabinets are very nice and with her help, it was a seamless process. I had no worries when I worked with Tracy because she is super thorough and organized (unlike some other places that i worked with to order linen cabinets - we would have gone to Tracy but our timeline for the bathroom did not allow it). She also helps us with many other aspects of our renovation, even though we did not have her do design build. When we had some trouble installing the cabinet, Jeff and Tracy came, explaining how it works and Jeff basically took the tools and worked on it for us right away. I feel fortunate to have worked with them in our first renovation ever!
I highly recommend Kitchen Inspiration to all of my friends who are looking to renovate their houses. If i were to do another project like renovating our master bedroom and bathroom, i will come to Tracy and Jeff. They are THAT good.

The Kitchen Inspiration team are simply fabulous. From being thoughtful, incredibly knowledgeable and creative in coming up with multiple amazing design options, to helping and nudging me along the way to the smallest detail such as picking finishes, when I was undecided. Angel and Tracy and Jeff are amazing. The onsite team, led by Jeff are also wonderful. They are organized and meticulous in managing to a plan and really care about their work, down to the smallest detail. They are very much a team and it shows. Every little thing matters and they were as happy and proud of the finished product as I was. You won’t find anyone better than the Kitchen Inspiration team – they’re just the best. I can’t wait to do a next project with them.

We looked at many different places for our new kitchen cabinets, and we can’t be more happier than the Sollera cabinets from Kitchen Inspiration.
We worked with Candy to design our layout. She was patient and went through with us on many options that we can do. Her expertise really shows on where we can do minor modifications to our kitchen configuration to make everything “fit” better. We changed our minds many times, like most homeowners do on tackling design issues, but she was able to make the changes quickly and accurately. Along with Tracy, we received various suggestions for our installer (we have our own installer) to make the cabinet install a breeze.
The Sollera cabinets are high quality at reasonable prices. We chose cloud white for kitchen and hazelnut stain in nook area. The paint is uniform in color and shine is just right. For our pantry, we used hazelnut finish on cherry. The finish is superb. I have already received many compliments on it.
We also had the countertop done thru Kitchen Inspiration. The crew did an amazing job. Candy and Tracy were on-site to ensure that it was installed according to spec.
I will definitely go back to them for our next project. They are easy to work with and quick to respond with all the questions I had. Their excellent customer service takes the worries out of any remodel.

We did not expect the final result to be so amazing. Candy and Tracy led us through the design process from start to finish. It was a complete white glove experience. We had a rough idea of what we wanted to do in terms of adding an island and enlarging out the kitchen space. They were able to step in with their expertise and distill our ideas into a design that truly modernized our kitchen space. With their guidance we flipped the island 90 degrees, knocked down the cabinets separating the dining room and kitchen to create an open concept space that was much more modern and updated.
Tracy followed through on every single action item, ensured everything was ordered and that all of our upgraded items (lamps, backslash, counters, wall paint) worked together in one cohesive design. She really took the guess work out, got measurements, came every week to check on the project progress, making regular check ins with our contractor. The color palette was her recommendation as well. We appreciated that she followed up on the color choice the day after to see it live and make sure we felt comfortable with the choice. She was a hands on project manager and detail orientated to boot.
Our contractor. Jeff, was also a preferred partner with Kitchen Inspiration. Jeff and his crew were so pleasant and professional. They kept a prompt daily schedule (10-7:30pm). We appreciated the consistency. As well, at the end of a day of construction, they cleaned up the debris and kept the construction zone as tidy as possible.
We didn't think a home upgrade project could go so smoothly - but the Kitchen Inspiration team definitely delivered above and beyond our expectations. Thank you!

Kitchen Inspirations made my dreams come true! I own a small two-bedroom townhouse and have worked to renovate the entire home over three years. The kitchen was the last piece of that three-year project. I appreciated that they are a design/build firm. Tracy knows her design stuff and offered solid suggestions when I was unsure about how to proceed or what materials to use. When I was shopping for materials, Tracy was available by text and responded to my questions instantly when I was in a store and needed answers right away.
Jeff runs a tight ship and has worked hard to build a loyal and dedicated team of construction professionals. They were more than willing to work around another specialty contractor I hired to polish my concrete sub floors. Afterwards, they went above and beyond to make sure my new floors were protected while they continued to work on the rest of the kitchen.
I work from home and was concerned about how that would play out. They were extremely respectful of me and my space. Every effort was made to make sure I was comfortable and had a clean and dust-free space to do my work. They even worked around some unreasonable noise complaints from a grumpy neighbor!
I was incredibly impressed with the team and their work ethic. They were all business from the moment they entered my house each morning to the moment they cleaned up and left for the day, often working beyond quitting time.
Because Jeff and Tracy are meticulous about planning each project, the job went smoothly and on time. There was one mistake about the wrong materials ordered; but to their credit, they owned the mistake and made it right without question.
They are incredibly professional and take pride in their work. It was an extreme pleasure working with Jeff, Tracy and everyone on their team. I recommend Kitchen Inspiration without hesitation. You won’t be sorry!

Tracy and her crew were amazing! During the planning phase (i.e. the months leading up to construction phase), 3D graphic renderings were created, every detail was discussed in an organized fashion, and every question answered. During the construction phase, every concern was promptly addressed, and the construction crew which works with Kitchen Inspiration was prompt, polite, professional, accommodating, and detail oriented. The icing on the cake was how quickly the construction was completed: demolition of our old kitchen began on October 2nd, and final paint touch-ups in our new kitchen happened on November 27th (8 weeks from demolition to completion). The full project included removal of a wall, engineering and foundation work, electrical work, refinishing wood flooring, plus custom creation of a beautiful decorative fireplace mantle. I fully recommend Kitchen Inspiration -- we are very happy with our new kitchen!

Kitchen Inspiration is totally amazing to work with. They helped design our kitchen, and the execution of the job was impeccable. Kitchen Inspiration delivered EVERYTHING they had promised, and they did it in the most professional manner. They work as a team, and we found all the them, Tracy, Angel, and Jeff, to be extremely knowledgeable. Kitchen Inspiration has an old fashioned work ethic. Phone calls and texts are returned immediately. Every detail is important to them. They took such pride in our project, and I started calling Jeff the "kitchen whisperer". Besides being a perfectionist, he also figures out what his clients need to stay sane during the remodel! I give this company an A+++.

KI did a complete remodel of my laundry room and guest bath. They both turned out great. Jeff and his crew were great to work with and always wanted to make sure we were satisfied. Good communication from start to finish both with Jeff on the job and Tracy in the office. Tracy's cabinet design was great and we are very happy with the cabinets. She also had a lot of ideas from the start on how to improve both the beauty and the function of my laundry room. We especially appreciated Jeff's attention to detail and his high standard of workmanship. The project was completed within the estimated time frame.

t was a pleasure working with Tracy at Kitchen Inspiration who helped us with our whole place renovation project. We reached out to Tracy for cabinet needs of our kitchen, vanity cabinets, and cabinetry for other rooms. She came up with great ideas during our first consultation, walked us through a number of design options from material, layout and design details. She’s so knowledgeable that I knew from my gut feeling that I was working with the right professional. She sent the design and corresponded with our GC, our GC was so impressed with the level of knowledge she has, the attention to details, and the ability to avoid mistakes before it happened. On delivery day, Tracy was there to make sure all parts were delivered. She delivered the installation packet to our installer, went over all details and answer any questions the installer had. She made a stressful project easy, and the entire project went smoothly, and on time. We couldn’t have asked for a better designer for our project, we were so happy working with Tracy! We highly recommend her work to anyone looking to renovate their home!

Starting to think of a remodeling project was a lot to consider. Given that we had zero experience on this, we didn’t know where to start. Thanks to Houzz, we found Kitchen Inspiration and reached out to them. Tracy was so great explaining all the steps with us, gave us guidance what to expect and consider. She connected us with engineer, appliance vendor and other vendors she worked with. Tracy measured our kitchen, communicated with the engineer, they both worked out a fantastic plan for our kitchen! During the design process, she was so patient with us making changes, gave us suggestions, and the result was a functional kitchen that we love! The Sollera cabinet that Tracy introduced to us was so beautiful, and reasonably priced. We receive so much compliments! Tracy was able to help us design our kitchen within our budget, with high quality product, and delivered a great experience. We highly recommend Tracy for kitchen design service and cabinetry.

I used Kitchen Inspiration for my bathroom project and I’m so impressed by them. Tracy and her team is so professional and her design sense is unparalleled. I walked in not expecting much, but in the end I fell in love with my new master bathroom and it’s entirely functional now. It appear small and cramped before- but the sleek lines now shout modern and sofisticated. Now I need to use Kitchen inspiration for my kitchen project and redo the mistakes I made trying to design a kitchen on my own 10 years ago.

We selected kitchen inspiration for our home renovation and have had nothing but problems with the cabinets. They are beautiful white cabinets, which many folks admire and ask who made them. We choose a touch-latch system to open with a modern EU design; which is completely non-functional. Kitchen Inspiration assured us the system worked and would add a sleek element to our design. However, either the cabinets open easily or they don't open at all. The folks at Kitchen Inspiration once tried to fix it and refused never calling back or responding. They DO NOT respond and help address any issues. DO NOT use them!

Comment from Kitchen Inspiration Inc.:
Dear Jennifer,
We are sorry to hear about your experience. We value our client and will try everything we can to help. Please note, in this project, we were not your contractor. We worked with your interior designer on the cabinets. You did purchase cabinetry from us, and thank you.
Our designer did suggest to do cabinets with handles because the touch latch style can be tricky to install. The final decision was ordering touch-latch for the whole kitchen. As we always suggest clients to hire a qualified contractor for the installation, we can’t predict how the installation workmanship will turn out. As much as we want to help our clients’ project, we even sent our installation manager out to the field to help when necessary. In this case, we did it one time as a goodwill gesture. You reached out to us a couple of times needing assistance, we contacted our local manufacturer representative, and he visited your home to help. There was one time you ask the Rep to visit but he was out of town. And every time you reach out to us, we contact our Rep to help you as the warranty is by the manufacturer. As far as I know, the manufacturer Rep gave you his contact info so you can reach out to him for any warranty concern.
We can’t comment about the workmanship of other contractors. We provide the support we could, and we arrange manufacturer Rep for site visits when requested. It is unfortunate that you feel it this way.

Our bathroom remodel was the second job Tracy and Jeff have done for us. Our kitchen was the first. I couldn't ask for a better team to complete our remodels in our condo. Our friends have used this team after seeing our completed projects and hearing about the professionalism and trust we have in this company.
Tracy is excellent to work with and she was able to draw designs that both my husband and I could agree on. We like different styles but she was able to blend both of our wants together so we would both be happy. Jeff, the project manager, and his team did an amazing job on the construction. We came home one night to find Jeff telling his team to re-caulk our shower window because it was not perfect or to his standard of excellence. ( I would not have known the difference, but you receive excellence when you use this company.) Every night they spent 45 minutes vacuuming, dusting, and cleaning up. We were grateful for this as we were living in the condo during the renovation.
We have a very STRICT home owners association (HOA) that wants/needs approval for ANY changes made within your condo. Jeff and Tracy worked with the HOA's demands. In fact, Tracy found and copied Daly City's renovation codes to our HOA which allowed us to complete the project the way we wanted it. We were so thankful to work with Tracy and Jeff knowing that they wanted to provide us with the best service and product possible.
We will be contracting them again to remodel our guest bathroom soon.

We had an excellent experience with Kitchen Inspiration. Our designer, Candy, listened carefully to our needs, and developed a remodeling plan that provided the space and flow that we were seeking. Tracy, the lead designer and project manager, provided many suggestions on materials and vendors. She also provided timely and accurate communications from start to finish during the project. The construction foreman, Jeff, and his crew are all craftsmen with great attention to detail. Plus, if you have to share your house with a construction team for a couple of months, these are the folks that you want: polite, professional and tidy.
Highly recommended! The Kitchen Inspiration team are excellent folk who do outstanding work.

We met with several kitchen cabinet specialists and we made the right decision to go with Kitchen Inspiration. We worked with Candy who was a valuable partner in our design and decision making process. We came in with our desired kitchen design configuration and measurement including the kitchen appliances we chose and our organizational needs. We also reviewed cabinetry options with her including handleless cabinets. Candy proposed Crystal cabinets for the modern look we wanted and provided us with a quote.
We then worked on fine-tuning the design with Candy. We liked that she not only listens to our ideas and requests but also ask questions, shares her thoughts and provides alternative suggestions if she had concerns. She knew the look we were going for and made sure each detail was in line with the design. Planning for specific drawer and cabinets organizers was a lot of work and when we needed to make changes or had questions, Candy was very prompt with her responses. As we got closer to the order date, we had more changes, even changing our refrigerator model at the last minute. We appreciated her patience.
The cabinets arrived in good condition with no damage during shipping. After installation, we had some concerns and Candy arranged for a representative from Crystal Cabinets to come and walk through the kitchen with us. They were responsive and we are happy with the cabinets. One thing we would suggest is to order a sample door if there is no sample available so that you know what the cabinets will look like. We love working in our new kitchen now.
We are so pleased with KI and Candy, and Crystal Cabinets that we've decided to get them to build us cabinets for another room in the house.

Kitchen Inspiration is awesome! We have researched extensively for our house remodeling and so glad to have found them. All the staffs are very professional and knowledgeable.
Our designer, Candy, is young lady with a good sense in design. She listened to our needs and helped us throughout the whole process. We had numerous changes in our design, but she was very patient and made us feel nothing but welcome. She even gave us advices non related to kitchen cabinets, such as appliances, flooring, and even lighting.
House remodeling was so stressful but every turned out great! We were able to get things we like within our budget. If we would do another remodeling 10 years later, we would go back to Candy!

Tracy at Kitchen Inspiration is wonderful! She helped us selecting and designing wonderful kitchen and bathroom cabinets. She was very involved throughout the process to make sure that everything would be perfect, and it turned out that way. One of the custom cabinet pieces was slightly too big, and Tracy got us quickly a replacement with the correct size. Excellent customer service, excellent follow-up, perfect professionalism and a very pleasant team to work with! We highly recommend them if you need new cabinets!

Tracy and Jeff are terrific. From design, to execution, to following up after the projects were finished, all of the work they do with their crew is very high quality. They return calls promptly, give quick estimates, are very timely and neat, and considerate of keeping doors closed (we have pets) and the house safe. They never make promises they can’t keep. I’ve used them on about ten projects, including a complete kitchen remodel and will never use anyone else.

I can’t say enough good things about Tracy and her team at Kitchen Inspiration. Don’t be misled by the name of the company; they do far more than just kitchens. Tracy and Jeff, her general contractor, are fantastic to work with.
I hired them to remodel my kitchen and two bathrooms, plus update lighting and flooring throughout my Brittan Heights condo. Many contractors won’t touch a condo, but Tracy and Jeff were 100% willing. My neighbors never complained during the entire project.
Tracy quickly understood my style, even though I didn’t have a strong sense of what I needed. She knew when to encourage me to consider different options and when to hold back. I never got the sense that she was trying to upsell me on anything. Multiple times she told me that some more expensive features I was considering were not worth the money. And she helped me save on cost whenever possible, for example urging me to choose a remnant for my rather small bathroom countertops rather than purchasing an entire slab. She went with me in countless visits to look at tile, countertops, and flooring. She was extraordinarily patient.
Jeff has an amazing eye for detail and quality construction. He and his crew kept the workspace incredibly neat and tidy. He always went the extra mile to get everything just right. He also has a strong eye for design and materials selection. You can tell he delights in seeing satisfied clients.
If I had another project I would hire them in a heartbeat.

This was our first kitchen remodeling and we loved working with Kitchen Inspiration, especially Tracy, Jeff and Debbie. We ordered our cabinets through them and used their team of contractors for the remodeling. TL;DR great attention to detail for both their designers and contractors.
At first we didn’t know where to start, so we visited cabinet designers from all the big names like H Depot and L’s before deciding to give local designers a try. Of the local ones, Kitchen Inspiration’s show room was the only one that had the quality we were looking for. E.g. simple details like the cabinet doors were aligned properly. Their price point was comparable with others so we went with them.
Cabinets
The cabinets quality were good: plywood, dovetailed drawers etc. One thing we noticed though was the manufacturer doesn't have as many "fancy" features like toe kick drawers that the big name brands had, but we didn't mind that.
Design
Debbie was our kitchen designer and she was very friendly and excited to work with us. She came up with an initial design, which was great because we didn't know what we wanted at first. Then we worked closely to iterate from there.
Along the way, we realized that we were pretty detail oriented and we asked about each little detail of the design. Debbie was very patient in answering our questions and we learned a lot. She was also very professional by not imposing her opinions/preferences onto us. Instead she tried to figure out what our preferences were. Yet she would give us her honest opinion when we asked throughout the design process and that was very helpful.
While we mainly worked with Debbie, Tracy was involved in the design as well. We know this because a couple of times Debbie relayed design suggestions from Tracy and they were always good ideas. E.g. using 18" wide wall cabinets instead of 16" because they fit and they cost the same. She's also a great person to bounce ideas/questions off of.
Contractor
We had the option of choosing other contractors, but after interviewing a few, we went with Kitchen Designer’s contractor team led by Jeff. We felt that they were the most thorough with inspecting the house during the bidding process. E.g. they were the only one to point out that a pocket door wall had to be rebuilt in order to hang wall cabinets on it, no one else saw or mentioned that.
Jeff was very communicative from Day 1, and made sure we knew what they were working on each day and the next. Jeff and his team were also very consistent in terms of showing up to work on the renovation pretty much every day. We’ve heard horror stories from friends about how their overbooked contractors "ghosted" on them. Thankfully we didn’t experience any of that.
Jeff and his team also went above and beyond to take care of our fur babies (two cats) during the project. There were a few days when we were out of town, and Jeff would send us daily photos of them to reassure us that there weren’t any runaways while they worked. This is on top of sealing up certain rooms so the cats stay where they’re supposed to be.
Overall, we highly recommend Kitchen Inspiration if you are considering remodeling your kitchen.

Tracy and Jeff are amazing. Tracy sketched a kitchen design for me within 20 minutes of seeing my kitchen and listening to what I wanted. A week later I had the final plans and they were amazing. Tracy is highly knowledgeable, efficient, and patient. Jeff oversaw the whole project. It felt like he became a member of our family and took care of every concern and question I had. Even my dog fell in love with him. He is extremely detailed and conscientious and a real professional.

Working with Tracy and Jeff was the best experience. The level of detail and communication was Amazing thru the entire process. They delivered what they has promised and went above and beyond and here is why.
The level of communication started from the get go in the design phase of the project. Tracy drew up several potential plans which we talked thru to see what was the best fit for what we wanted. Her ability to suggest what would work in regards to fixtures was spot which at the end made the space look bigger than the original foot print. In addition she referred us to various vendors to pick and choose the fixtures and tile which is a great resource.
The construction crewed managed by Jeff was "Outstanding" for the following reasons. His level of attention to detail is what sets him apart from others that I've worked with in the past and here is why. My family and I had to live in the space during construction and making sure that the living areas needed to be clean and dust free. Jeff's crew covered all the entryway with heavy duty plastic and the hardwood floors covered in heavy 3M barrier. At the end of each work day his crew spent a good 30-45 min to clean up to make sure that the hall way and walls where clean. The layout and pattern of the tile makes it look continuous to the eye which in turn makes the space look larger. The grout was done in such a manner that it had clean "Sharp" lines vs just applied via "finger". Of course all construction jobs are never the same and issues pop up all the time. This is what I call "The Game Changer" in the experience with these folks. They communicated the issues and came up with solutions that would actually make it better and work without impacting the budget a great deal. Here is an example. The sink plumbing had to be reworked and was out of the original scope. They explained it in general terms I could understand and provided several options.
At the end I wanted a company that treated my home as if it was their own with ideas, done right, and last for many decades to come. Kitchen Inspiration is the real deal that will provide you with that level of experience.

Tracy, Jeff, and Candy did a fantastic job renovating the bathroom of a 90+ year old house in the Berkeley Hills. Their high quality work, attention to details, and excellent communication made them easy to work with. It was the perfect balance of listening to what we wanted, but also not being afraid to tell us if something wasn't such a good idea and why. They started the project early and finished up in time for us to move in, leaving the place incredibly clean. We had just had the wood floors refinished, and they covered them all and left them in perfect condition. This was a difficult project in that all construction and demolition materials had to be carried up and down 72 steps by hand to the house up on a hill. We highly recommend them and will use them again for a future kitchen remodel.

Kitchen Inspiration gave us our dream kitchen! They transformed a poorly designed kitchen and nook into an open designed floor plan with 4 times the storage space. Not only am I extremely happy with the outcome, but Tracy, Candy, Jeff, and their entire team was such a pleasure to work with. Tracy and Candy helped walk me through the overwhelming process of choosing all of my tile, cabinets, countertops, etc.. And Jeff and his crew made it all happen! Jeff can figure a way to make anything happen! They work extremely hard, and keep the job site clean. I would definitely recommend using kitchen inspiration for any of your remodel needs!

We wanted to remodel our very old house for a while starting with our kitchen, did our research and shop around a bit. Then we came to Kitchen Inspiration and met with Tracy, her ideas opened up our eyes and gave us a whole new dimension on how designs should be. Tracy and her team were very knowledgeable from appliances to hardware details, they helped us made our decisions wisely without any headache. We also want to mention Jeff in the team, his skills and workmanship were superb, and his ability to overcome obstacles was amazing. Jeff skillfully made everything near perfection, way beyond our expectations. Tracy and her team were clean, efficient, and they don't cut corners, yet our kitchen renovation project was done ahead of schedule. We now enjoying our newly renovated kitchen in the holidays season, with a view too, yay! We will not hesitate to hire Kitchen Inspiration for our future projects.

Choosing Kitchen Inspiration with Tracy Jiang and her crew to accomplish our dream kitchen was the best decision we’ve made for our new home! Tracy, as their lead kitchen designer, was very professional, passionate, efficient, delightful and very easy to communicate with. She knows her speciality so well because of her years of experiences in this field. When we communicated with her about our thoughts, she listened carefully and could easily put all my unmature thoughts together, respected my perspective, and also timly provided suggestions for us to think about before we made the decision. Kitchen Inspiration sells quality cabinets, and Tracy was so good to be able to help her customer to make the best choice to fit the budget. Because of Tracy, we started only the cabinets, and soon we realized we really wanted her to finish the whole kitchen project for us. It turned out this decision was so right.
Tracy partners with a wonderful kitchen appliances company who took care of our appliances with very competitive price and quality customer service. Tracy's installation crew with Jeff as the lead was just phenomenal! I always hold high standards toward workmanship. Tracy’s crew has never failed my expectations. Their work stands very close look and the whole installation was such a pleasant process for us. They always laid out their work site nicely, and cleaned up every time they left and also prepared for the next day’s job. I got little kids around. I would never have to worry about the safety or the job site. Jeff seldom called me to interrupt when I was on my own business. He would always manage things until we got home and communicate with us in person on site. Renovation could be stressful or frustrating at some point because of unexpected situation inevitably might happen. Tracy and Jeff as a team was very countable when things happened.They would never rushed us to make decisions. They were always very thoughtful and trying to find the best solutions with us. Working with them were very pleasant as well as very inspiring.
Tracy, Jeff and their crew are just wonderful people to work with! We always feel very blessed to be able to find them and have our brand new kitchen dream realized with them. We would highly recommend them! "Thank You Tracy and Jeff and your buddies!", SINCERELY.

My wife and I have wanted to remodel our kitchen, dining room and guest powder room for last two years. After reviewing tons of photo and client’s comments, we contacted Kitchen Inspiration Inc. for our project. We want chic looks while staying within the $50k budget. The initial design was as an open concept kitchen and living room. Unfortunately, we could not pursue the open concept looks due to our townhome structure restriction. Debbie was able to present us another stunning design within a few days. Besides offering great design recommendations, Tracy is extremely knowledgeable about product’s usability and durability as well. With her recommendations, I can rest assure my newly remodeled home will last for years to come. Having the right contractor could make or break the remodel project. Glad Jeff able to work my project. Don’t judge him by his looks. He had over 20+ year of experience in cabinetry and construction. He is a perfectionist and articulates about his workmanship than me the homeowner; the remodel project was complete above my expectation.

Kitchen Inspiration was AMAZING to work with for our kitchen remodel. We came to Tracy with a challenging kitchen layout in an older home, and she put together an amazing concept for us at our initial meeting. She was thoughtful and patient as we selected all the little details for the kitchen. She also helped us estimate total project costs including appliances, fixtures, cabinet hardware, etc., and we came in right on budget. Her schedule plan was right on as well, even though a few surprises showed up during demolition. Her team worked so quickly, and didn't cut any corners. They were tidy, courteous, and thorough, and we are SO thrilled with the results. I HIGHLY recommend Kitchen Inspiration for home renovation projects - they will not disappoint!

My wife and I have no hesitation in recommending the whole spectrum of services provided by Kitchen Inspiration in remodeling our kitchen, and assisting in the remodeling of our guest bathroom. Our prime designer, Luciana Sequeira, was very creative in designing a new kitchen and dining area for our Palo Alto townhouse that optimized the available space in a much better way than we could have imagined on our own. In addition, although the scope of remodeling of our guest bathroom primarily involved the cabinetry, her suggestion for installing a barn door for this fairly small space is a good example of a simple recommendation that had a big impact. As remodeling novices, my wife and I truly "didn't know what we didn't know."
Tracy Jiang's design and construction experience was also an invaluable resource, and complemented the primary role played by Luciana very effectively. Both Tracy and Luciana were always very timely in responding to any follow up questions we had, and whether the communication involved in-person meetings, emails, phone calls and text messages, my wife and I were made to feel that our business was appreciated and that our satisfaction with their services was very important to them.
Our thanks and appreciation also go to Jeff Lee. Although he wasn't involved in the construction phase of our project, Jeff was very willing and skilled in assisting with some post-implementation adjustments of the kitchen and kitchen Island cabinetry.

Do you have PTSD from your last remodel experience or have friends who are still recovering from their remodel? The last time we remodeled prior to engaging Tracy and team was 15 years ago. The experience was so horrible (the usual: late delivery, nickel/dime-d every bit, stopped work), we were unable to bring ourselves to take on another remodel till our dining room lights went out and we really needed work done in the house.
Thanks to Houzz, we found Kitchen Inspiration and hired the team to remodel our kitchen, two bathrooms, and dining room. How do I love thee? Let me count the ways...
1) Communications: Tracy (designer), Tze (project manager), and Jeff (on-site foreman) are responsive and prompt in communications, from day 1 through months after the project has completed. I was super impressed in how these three partner; anytime we shared a question or issue with one, the other two know pretty much instantaneously and one of them would address.
2) Teamwork: ....which brings me to my next point about how well they work together. We all have heard horror stories how designer and contractor with opposing opinions/advices, creating headaches for the homeowner. No such thing with this team. They respect and defer to each other for each's specialty, an amazing team with one voice. During a remodel where many decisions need to be made everyday, having aligned guidance from the team is crucial for one's sanity!
3) Integrity/professional: This team does what's right for the customer, even if it means more work for them. A few stories...
---- After our guest bath was painted, Tracy stopped by to see the results. She found the color a bit off from her vision, selected another color with us, and got the space repainted the same day!
---- We purchased Miele appliances for the remodel and Miele requires their appliances to be installed by Miele directly. To be sure outlets and plumbing will work for the appliances installation, Jeff had not only taken extra care to double/triple-check the connecting points, he and his team were on site for the day of installation. Turned out Miele needed plenty of help: from Jeff's team providing them a drill that's strong enough for our tiles, to providing materials/making a custom pipe for the hood, and finally manipulating wiring to fit between the induction stove and convection oven. Miele installers remarked we had an awesome contract team; we could not agree more!
---- After the project completed (and last invoice paid!), we found a chip at the top of the custom shower door. Tracy responded right away, Jeff got in touch and had a replacement order placed. A week later, the chipped glass was replaced. These guys take their warranty seriously!
4) On-time/budget delivery: The team estimated work would begin mid Jan, and complete within 12-14 weeks. They started on 1/18/2017, largely completed by end of March (10 weeks), with one last piece (custom shower door) installed early April. And this was with three change orders! Amongst the three change orders, one was due to unanticipated structural work uncovered until opening up the drop ceiling; the other two were entirely new scope we adde on.
Overall, we are extremely happy with our experience with Tracy, Tze, Jeff, and team. They are a joy to work with and a team who truly takes pride in their work. We love Tracy's design; even tho we couldn't fully visualize the design at the beginning, we trusted Tracy and remodel came out amazing, with Jeff's execution. The remodel has transformed our living space into a stylish forever home for us. Thank you, Tracy, Tze, and Jeff!!!

The kitchen looks so much bigger and much more functional. They are very efficient and there were no issues with delivery of products and timing.

It took a year to finish our house remodeling but I must say that it was a great pleasure working with Tracy! I had the kitchen cabinets, 2 and half bathroom cabinets, Laundry room cabinets, Entry/ window seat cabinets and the countertops. Tracy is truly professional and very responsive to emails or any kinds of communication. She suggested several other options to try to meet our budget. You can totally feel that she does care about the customer's project! When we installed the Kitchen cabinets, we happened to be abroad for vacation but Tracy visited our jobsite twice to help our contractor making sure that everything is installed in the right way. I am happy with the quality of products and they look gorgeous! I also get a lot of compliments from the guests. I highly recommend Tracy to everyone who is considering any kinds of house remodeling!

We couldn’t be happier with our kitchen! The design, quality and service we received from Tracy was amazing. After reading so many positive reviews about the company, we scheduled a consultation with Tracy. We really appreciate that Tracy gave us direction and was very honest to let us know when she thought something would not look right (with humor though). After our 1st consultation, we knew it was the right decision to go with Tracy for our kitchen project. Tracy worked with our contractor seamlessly. She’s very good at communicating with all parties to make sure things are right. My contractor was so impressed that our designer (Tracy) follows up every step in the process for a smooth job. Tracy even came to meet the delivery truck to make sure we received all cabinets! She delivered the cabinet installation plan to my contractor and explained all details and areas needed extra attention. She was always happy to listen and answer any question and gave us lots of input. The result is a beautiful and function kitchen with much more storage space than we had before. Thank you Tracy! It was really fun working with you!

Tracy was very easy to work with throughout the design and build process in my kitchen renovation. She was very knowledgeable and helpful in working out any design issues and responsive to changes to accommodate my concerns. Given how stressful any renovation can be, she relieved much of the stress through her professional and positive attitude and her efficiency in getting the work done. I was also very pleased with the contractors who were a part of her design/build team. They were hardworking, respectful, and trustworthy. They demonstrated much pride in their work and took the time to make sure the installation was done to my satisfaction. They were also very responsive in addressing any minor adjustments which were needed.

Working with Tracy and her design/build firm is delightful. Tracy has a positive and open approach to design and will work with you to develop a design that is both beautiful and functional. She has a great sense of space and color and helped us use color tastefully in our recent kitchen remodel.
The contractors she works with are also very conscientious and responsive to what the customer wants. When something small went wrong (as something always does in construction), Tracy responded immediately and gave us options to fix it.
In short, we ended up with a kitchen that looks--and works--like the kitchen of our dreams, for what we consider a very reasonable price.

My project involved remodeling the kitchen, guest bathroom, and fireplace.
When I met Tracy, she was very friendly and welcoming. I presented her my ideas of what I wanted to do and she immediately drew up a rough sketch of what she thought would work. I liked her initiative and the suggestions she made. Throughout the project, she was always responsive to any questions or concerns I had, she was on top of all the materials ordered, gave good suggestions on what looked good and what didn't. I appreciated her knowledge and design expertise.
Although the journey from start to finish was a long process, I could not be more happy with the end results. Especially the kitchen, it's so much more functional, open concept, more counterspace, and much brighter.
Everything I asked for. Thank you Tracy!

Tracy is an awesome kitchen designer. We recently remodeled our house and were referred to Tracy by our architect. She met up with us and walked us through various design constraints, budget constraints and timing constraints with impeccable knowledge and passion. What I particularly liked about her is that she is easy to work with and is very professional. She is straight forward and would tell us no when she doesn't have an answer to our questions (just like most homeowners in a major remodeling project, we seemed to have an infinite amount of questions), and would go and do her research to find us an answer. Her prices are competitive, her time estimates are right on, and there is no hidden cost. She cares a lot about her work and is a delight to work with!

Kitchen Inspiration did a very good job designing the kitchen, especially given the small space available. They recommended and worked with a very good general contractor.
The work was done on the schedule provided us at the start of the project, except for the backsplash being on back order and thus delayed in installation.
Kitchen Inspiration did a good job overseeing the quality of the work of any contractors, pointing out a couple of times work that needed to be corrected. The coordination with the contractors was generally good, though occasional minor miscommunication between them occurred.

Jeannie Dinkel provided us with amazing design and options for our garage storage and laundry room project. She worked well and communicated effectively with our contractor and was able to foresee certain issues that may have involved and caused potential set backs and costs prior to the beginnings of sections started. What sets her apart from other designers I have worked with is that she saw my vision and if applicable offered options and reworks quickly to meet my desired outcome. We use our garage space as an overflow area when family and friends gather...it is that much of a warm and welcoming space. I will hire Jeannie over and over again.

We were very frustrated because we couldn't find the solution easily.
However we has no problem about kitchen.
We ordered kitchen and bathroom caninets
Tracy is very experienced even though she is the expert about eichler house. She gave many advice to us (we are very novice about renovation,)
and very responsible about her work.
We also ordered all the faucet, sink and medicine cabinets for kitchen and bath. She is very reliable. We are very satisfied with it,
If I renovate another home, I will definitely work with Tracy.
Trust the yelp and houzz reviews.
When we contracted the company has good reviews, we were happy. When we didn't check the review, we had to redo the job.
I am still happy that we worked with Tracy.

When we met Tracy we had a vision in mind. We knew what we wanted. She brought her design expertise and practicality sense. She is a very good listener and took the time to hear our needs. Aesthetically, we couldn't be more pleased with our kitchen. Our kitchen is an efficient and roomy space to make a quick bite to eat or prepare a 5 course meal while being a soothing gathering to hang out. I would recommend Tracy for any kitchen renovation.

I can't say enough wonderful things about Tracy at Kitchen Inspiration Inc. Tracy came up with an outstanding design for our kitchen, living room fireplace area and family room bookshelves. She took our tiny galley kitchen and completely opened the entire area up and now we have a beautiful open concept functional kitchen with a huge peninsula and tons of counter space. We did not think it was possible to have these things in our home but Tracy made it a reality for us! We also ordered our cabinets, countertops, plumbing fixtures and cabinet hardware through Tracy. She helped us with every decision along the way. Tracy also was on site throughout the process to oversee the project. Tracy is an amazing designer and we had an excellent experience working with her. Our kitchen turned out beautiful and that was because of Tracy and her expertise!

Tracy Jiang and her company, Kitchen Inspirations Inc., are wonderful. Tracy is very customer centric, very knowledgeable, and has fantastic design taste. Tracy is available, connected with vendors for delivery on time. She handles all of the ordering and billing for you. When something goes wrong, she makes sure it's taken care of/fixed without any issues. We could not be more pleased with our kitchen.

We ordered our cabinets and countertop from Kitchen Inspiration and the selections are great. Tracy is a good and professional designer. She offered us valuable design advice, especially presenting different available options. Tracy is very nice and helpful. she worked closely with our crew (in our case we have a family member who is a professional) to complete the kitchen remodel job.
We are very pleased with our new kitchen. Thank you Tracy and Kitchen Inspiration for all the help!

Tracy of Kitchen Inspiration was great to work with, from the thoughtful design stage through the timely installation and follow up. She has helped us renovate a kitchen and two bathrooms, accommodating our schedule and budget, always with good advice and a smile. Overall, we were very happy with the design, product/material choices, and especially the great service. We would highly recommend her to anyone.

Tracy was a tremendous help in remodeling our three bathrooms. We are usually DIY folks who use Home Depot and Lowe's. But when it came to our unusual shape and small bathrooms we needed help. Tracy ordered custom cabinets where needed, moved a wall, added a new wall, and found beautiful accessories. And the price was very reasonable. Tracy is always accessible and on time.

Tracy turned a very difficult wish list into reality for our kitchen. Her design was amazing; got us the dream space (including a big island!) that we wanted, and turned out to be very practical. We now have a more functional space that is beautiful.
She did the design, including cabinet & counter recommendations, and worked closely with the contractor and installers to make sure every detail was perfect. She thought of things we never would have realized until it was too late.
I couldn't recommend Tracy & Kitchen Inspiration any more highly!

Just recently I worked with Kitchen Inspiration Inc. Pricing was very competitive yet the selection of the cabinet was wonderful and design was very nice. Tracy was very reliable and responsive, also she was really fun.
My clients are very happy with their cabinets and service.

We visited Tracy with a plan to remodel our kitchen/family room in mind. The space was very difficult to work with. Our goal was to open it up. With her vision and creativity, she came up with a design we never would have envisioned.
Tracy worked with our contractor keeping communication very clear. Through email, text or phone, questions and concerns were always promptly answered. She gave us resources to find exactly what we wanted for different parts of our project.
Her expertise with cabinetry and countertops made selection simple. We couldn't be happier with the end result. We highly recommend her for any project.

Tracy Jiang is a wonderfully talented and detail oriented kitchen designer. Right off the bat, she was friendly, welcoming and professional. We knew we were in good hands.
We had put off this remodel for nearly 3 years. It was a daunting task and we didn't know where to start. On a recommendation from a friend, we contacted Tracy. Had I known it could go so smoothly, we would have jumped in earlier.
There were an abundant amount of decisions to make - from layout to cabinet style, appliances, tile, hardware, lighting, etc. Tracy was really fantastic with guiding us on what to focus on and in what order. She was so helpful in narrowing down choices, keeping our budget and overall design of the kitchen in mind.
She gave us a couple of contractors to consider, one of which we hired. We were completely satisfied with their workmanship and the contractor and Tracy worked and communicated like a well oiled machine!
Tracy has a calm, kind, in control demeanor, and was an absolute pleasure to work with. We are so happy with our kitchen and will appreciate the efforts of all involved for many years to come.

Tracy Jiang of Kitchen Inspiration, Inc. helped to determine an estimated budget to see if we are prepared to move forward with this project. She knew the current architectural designs in order to inform us if what we wanted would work within the scope of our project area. She also suggested pros of what and why something would work and also the drawbacks of why our ideas would not fit into the project. She kept the project going by informing us as to deadlines. She worked well with the chosen contractor and discussed any problems that were encountered during the entire project.

All we have to say about Tracy is that she's an excellent designer and a very friendly person. She is very talented and honest. She will tell you what she thinks, even if you don't want to hear it.
It was a real pleasure working with her. She was very patient with us since we had her do many revisions for our project. She is very resourceful -- got us connected with the right kind of people needed for our kitchen remodel. She managed the timeline very proficiently and there was never delay at our site because of any of her orders. She ensured to be there on site to receive the orders, which we thought was really awesome. She guided and helped us all the way to the end and helped us transform our kitchen into a dream kitchen that we always wanted.
We will work with Tracy again and again for any renovation project at our home. We will definitely recommend her to anyone who is looking into renovations.
Tracy -- Thank you so very much for everything you did for us !!!

Tracy is nothing short of fantastic to work with. Tracy assisted us on several projects: she facilitated our Carsarstone countertop fabrication and installation in our kitchen and bathroom remodels, and also provided us with custom cabinetry and design expertise. Tracy is knowledgeable, organized, and very talented. When issues came up, as they often seem to during a remodel, she responded quickly and thoughtfully with great solutions. Compared to many others in the world of construction and design, she stands out for how easy she is to work with. She relieves stress rather than creating it! I give her my highest recommendation.

Phenomenal service, quality, and value. Tracy went above and beyond in guiding us through our full kitchen remodel - from the design of cabinets and countertops to working with our contractor onsite to make sure the install was done properly. Great communication and customer service throughout. The value/quality of the Solera cabinets is amazing, compared to the numerous other options we shopped and priced. Highly recommended.

Tracy helped me design our kitchen. Even though she seems to focus on contemporary design, she was excellent for my transitional kitchen. She is very helpful and super reliable. We had a problem with Cambria (quartz stone company) but she was always on my side and supported me all the way through.
I highly recommend Kitchen Inspiration.

Tracy was wonderful with our remodel. When we first started we were overwhelmed by the various styles, colors, brands, etc and didn't know where to start. Tracy was very patient and spent a good amount of time trying to understand our needs and wants for our new remodel.
Tracy was recommended to us originally for kitchen cabinets but not only did she do a wonderful job at helping us design our kitchen, she became a great one stop shopping source taking all the brands and styles we wanted and helping us order everything for the kitchen, bath, tile and even window coverings.
Tracy is very detail oriented and followed through with each part of the project install after purchase. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great remodeling experience.
