Artistic Kitchen Concepts

Artistic Kitchen Concepts is the perfect name for this company. We wanted to update our kitchen cabinets and clearly Jeff Hughes is an ARTIST! While maintaining our original well-made cabinets, Jeff helped us select new cabinet doors and handles. In addition, he updated the inside of several cabinets with drawers and lazysusans to make our pans and dishes more easily accessible. The quality of the cabinets inside and out are absolutely outstanding! Our new look could not be more perfect and whole heartedly matched our expectations! We appreciated Jeff's knowledge, professionalism, and expertise as we worked through the various decisions.

Jeff is very knowledgeable about current products and trends. He assisted me in choosing the counter top and back splash and all the other items needed. I was pleasantly surprised that the counter top was ready within a week. Once the project was scheduled, everything went according to plan. He and his crew were professional and courteous. They did quality work in a timely manner and within budget. They were organized and efficient; left the work area clean and in order. I would recommend Jeff and Artistic Kitchen Concepts !

Working with Jeff Hughes at Artistic Kitchen concepts was, quite simply, a no-brainer. Jeff made everything easy and my kitchen is beautiful. Being a new-ish homeowner, my husband and I were remodel novices and I had no idea what to expect when it came to giving the kitchen a much-needed face lift. It had “good bones” with good cabinet boxes, appliances and counter tops, but my cabinet doors were very dated in 1980s medium wood with cathedral arches on the upper doors and gold hardware. Some of the doors were weathered and broken. I was also dealing with a truly ugly marigold yellow wall color and I wanted to add some extras to make the kitchen special. I made an appointment with Jeff to come to our house and give us an estimate. He knew I was new at this and he made sure to spend a lot of time explaining our options and the costs associated with all of them. Expect to spend several hours with Jeff because he measures everything and will deliver your estimate during your appointment. I liked that he gave me options for painting our cabinets (get all new doors, keep some doors, keep all the doors) and the cost associated with each and then he line itemed every other change we thought about including adding pull-outs in some of the cabinets, lazy susan, etc. This way my husband and I could discuss the quote and make the best decision. Once we determined what we were going to do, Jeff came back to the house to pick out colors, finishes, hardware, etc. Hubs and I were sent to the hardware store to select our tile for the backsplash and eyeball the hardware in-person that we liked. We emailed him the item numbers and then let him do the ordering to take advantage of his discounts with vendors. We were given a start date and Jeff and his crew (expect mainly Jeff, but also his wife Nan and a few other workers to help) were on time and got started right away. Jeff and his crew will clean up every day so you can still use your kitchen (depending on how much renovation you need), which is very nice. He’s pleasant to talk to and will gladly answer any questions. The finished product is BEAUTIFUL. I decided that I wanted to add a wallpaper accent wall, so Jeff was able to refer me to a contractor for that portion of the job and my husband and I painted the walls ourselves to save a buck, so all in all, AKC painted all of my cabinet boxes, painted the lower doors, built new upper doors, made glass display doors for one set of cabinets, installed the glass subway tile backsplash, installed a VERY sturdy floating shelf, some custom pull-outs in the peninsula, new hardware and a few other sort of random projects we had around the house like installing a ceiling fan in our bedroom and reinforcing a railing leading down to the basement. The pictures speaks for themselves. If I had one very minor critique, I would say that it did take a little longer to complete the project than we anticipated, but nothing major. Jeff was very up-front about the time table. All in all, our first major home remodel was a breeze thanks to Jeff and his crew. Thanks!

Unsatisfactory. Disappointing. I just don't feel that the quality or dedication to this job was there. I have hired numerous contractors to work on my homes & this was not a good experience. Here are some *AFTER* photos; the cracked and splitting veneer that was installed, the moulding that was cut (while still attached to the wall) which was chipped in the process plus my hardwood floor was cut into ( this occurred in two additional places) , and I was not informed of the gouges in an interior door from dragging a cabinet past it with large screws still attached (photo of the cabinet as well ). I found that unhappy surprise after they left. I regret hiring Artistic Kitchen Concepts.

Jeff and his team were wonderful to work with. We ended up doing a combination of refacing existing cabinets and adding some new. Jeff is very talented and bring design ideas and helping the customer identify their vision. He brings great design ideas at various price points and was a fantastic go-between when issues with vendors arose. He and his team were very patient with this first time home remodeler. I couldn't be happier with the results. I did come in slightly over target, but the changes were all well worth it. (sorry I am not fully decorated yet in the pics)

Slow communication, I felt like a low priority, and the project took over seven months to close and be resolved.

Jeff has awesome ideas and he turns them into reality. He turned our old, tired oak kitchen into a new work of art. Beautiful cabinetry with all the high end extras at a very reasonable price. Jeff took a desk area and turned it into a stunning wine bar. We are so pleased with our new kitchen and would highly recommend him. Jeff is awesome to work with.

Jeff refinished our kitchen cabinets and much more. He added custom trims and added a cabinet on the reverse side of our cabinets that was just empty space. Jeff was very professional and left the area clean when he was working, Our kitchen is completely updated silent close drawers and self closing cabinet doors really love it. Jeff was patient while my husband and myself waffled between several cabinet styles and colors, he helped when we needed it but left the decisions to us. Thank you Jeff for our wonderful kitchen.

Jeff had good ideas for redesigning our kitchen and we were very pleased with the outcome and more importantly the quality of the work that was done. He added some new cabinets, changed our island, and put new fronts on the existing cabinets so everything matched and looked new. Highly recommend!!
