Fisher Gross Kitchen & Bath Studio

I was looking for a kitchen designer and found Fisher Gross on Houzz last November 2019. We met with Karen at Fisher Gross soon thereafter. She gave us 3 plans--all different which were amazing. She had ideas that we (and others who looked at the existing floor plan) had never dreamed of. We picked one of three plans then met with her later after she had fine tuned and detailed the plan we chose. We also hired her to over see the project from the start to finish for a reasonable fee. Although not required, we used the contractor and subs she recommended since she had worked with them before. She was also very hands on and met me at vendors showrooms to help me chose counter tops, flooring, lighting, fixtures, etc. Unfortunately our project started right before COVID hit so there were a few snags but she stuck with us and made sure everything went as smoothly as possible. I highly recommend Fisher Gross (and Karen). She has extensive knowledge and is a licensed general contractor in addition to being from a family of cabinet makers. This was huge because she knew what could and could not be done and could communicate well with our contractor. She was a delight to work with and returned my calls quickly.

Karin did an exceptional job for us. We engaged her to develop a space plan for an underutilized back room. Her plan allowed us to add a full bath, a great laundry closet and still left space for a sun room. Her company did all of the construction work and we managed to upgrade our existing bath in the process. We feel like we have four beautiful new rooms in our home. Each step of the way, Karin was attentive to every detail. We love our new home! Thank you, Karin!

Karin was wonderful to work with. She gave us 2design alternatives. She was very responsive to our need for storage options and there were no surprises. We will recommend her to friends and family!

It was a pleasure to work with Karin Fisher. She is creative, professional, and completed the work on our master bath on time and on budget. We would recommend her without hesitation and hope to work with her again on future home improvement projects.

I have done many kitchen and bath remodels over the years and working with Karin Fisher of Fisher Gross Kitchen & Bath was refreshing! This was an extensive kitchen and bath remodel, a complete reconfiguration of the spaces. What I really appreciated was Karin's attention to detail, her willingness to listen to my vision for the spaces and the ideas and options she offered to make it possible. The end results were beautiful, custom contemporary bathrooms and chef's kitchen! Karin's knowledge, patience, professionalism and hands on approach are rare in the remodeling industry. I would definitely recommend Karin Fisher to anyone looking to remodel a kitchen or bath. I will certainly look to Karin's services for any future kitchen and bath remodels!

We hired Karin after having spent several years thinking about renovating our kitchen. We were looking to hire a design and build firm, and had passed her storefront on walks in our neighborhood. When we met with Karin, we were very impressed. She was extremely professional, organized, and knowledgeable. She provided 3 renderings of the kitchen and bathroom for her consultation fee. She suggested solutions for space utilization that we would never have thought of, and brought us into her store to demonstrate how the various cabinets functioned. She also allowed us to contact some of her former clients in order to discuss their experience with her and her build team, which was extremely valuable, and unanimously positive. One of her builders suffered an unfortunate health issue during the construction that halted work for a time. We had become friendly with the builders so this was an extremely sad incident and could have ended work on the project for a while. Though it was not expected, Karin reached out and found other building crews to come in and restart the project. It speaks to her incredible professionalism how she handled this issue, and for that I will always have the utmost respect for her. The completed kitchen was everything we had hoped for and more, and we are detail oriented people! We should not have been surprised, however, because Karin would stop by once (and more often) twice a day, to assess the progress of the job and make certain that all was being built to her standards. As an example, the punchlist at the end of the work was not an afterthought; it was completed promptly and without any questions. This was not our first experience with renovating a home, but it was by far our best experience. We wholeheartedly recommend Fisher Gross for any kitchen or bath renovations. We live in our kitchen now-- and marvel at its beauty every day.

We used fisher and gross todo our kitchen and guest bath two years ago and now just had them do our master bathroom. They were fantastic to work with. Karin stays on top of everything. Any issue she is right there to resolve. We can’t say enough positive things about her and her company. Very happy with the quality of cabinets and the work. Well worth the money. I include cost of everything equipment, tile, cabinets,etc

Karin Fisher with Fisher Gross Kitchen & Bath Studio came highly recommended to us after a friend utilized her services on his own kitchen. We were very happy with Karin's suggestions and incorporated nearly everything she suggested into our kitchen remodel. More importantly, I had to be out of town during a portion of the remodel and Karin was willing to come to the work site and confirm the project was being handled properly during the counter top installation. Needless to say, the design vision and execution came off wonderfully!

We hired Karin to design and build a master bathroom last year. She did a spectacular job maximizing use of space and built designer cabinets. She was outstanding at helping us pick out tiles, paint, trim, fixtures, and appliances. Karin's detail to every inch of our bathroom was superb. I would use her again in a heartbeat.

We renovated our dining, kitchen area and we are very happy with the result. We are impressed by the efficiency, quality and professionalism with Fisher Gross (and her sub contractors, especially the 2 men who install our entire kitchen cabinets in 2 days without compromising quality!) We love that Fisher is a good designer and a general contractor. She came with us to choose our stone, narrowed down choices for backsplash and guided us in picking other design elements. We think it was competitive pricing. Throughout the project, we maintained communication through email, phone and sometimes in person. Fisher or her assistant answers back within a day (most of the time) to sometimes few days (if it goes on the week end). We also love that her design fees were waived when we purchased cabinets through her.

From our first meeting with Karin Fisher through project completion we were impressed by her confidence, customer focus, and attention to detail. From design through construction and tying up the loose ends Karin was at our home dozens of times to make sure every aspect of the project was completed to the high standards she holds herself to. During the design phase she gave us 4 different concepts to consider and helped us merge her ideas plus our own into a final design that made the best possible use out of our space. She works equally well with contemporary and traditional styles but is at her best when her client wants a unique, creative home. She tied the design for the kitchen and bath into a larger project that encompassed our entire first level. Any large project will have a few challenges and Karin was always quick to make corrections. She works with the best suppliers and tradesmen in San Diego and it was clear they respected Karin's professionalism and liked working with her. She spent many hours helping us find the right tile and other materials. She understood that this was a large project and wanted us to love our finished home -- and we do. I heartily recommend Karin for any project where creativity and attention to detail matters.

Fisher Gross did an outstanding job on our kitchen remodel. I live in a house that's approaching 100 years old. The kitchen was small, dark, and was separated from the living area by a wall. Karin guided us from the initial design to final job completion. The redesign completely opened up the space and has actually made the entire house feel bigger and more open. The quality of the cabinets and counters is amazing. The Fisher Gross team is incredibly professional and they are experts at what they do. They recommended things that I would have never even thought of. I cannot recommend them more!

I have bee incredibly fortunate to have worked with Karen on many projects from kitchens, baths and multiple types of built-ins. .Her creativity, willingness to collaborate, project management and dedication to every client makes her company superior. I look forward to working together whenever I can.

Karin Fisher is competent, experienced, and has amazing vision for turning an ordinary kitchen or bath into a showplace. She not only brought the job in perfectly on budget, but delivered sooner than the anticipated timeline. She is thorough, and will go the last mile to make sure a client is not only happy, but thrilled. I have worked with many kitchen/bath designers in the past, and after working with Karin, I will never go back to anyone else! I am more than demanding and she exceeded all expectations. I can't recommend her and her firm highly enough!

I had the opportunity to work with Karin and her team on my latest renovation project in La Jolla. My Clients wanted a clean, modern beach vibe for their home and I took them to Fisher Gross Kitchen and Bath. My clients were on a tight schedule and needed to be in their new home within 2 months. Karin was extremely proactive and never compromised the details of the design. She was extremely hands on by following up almost daily with me and my client as well as made sure that the contractors were scheduled appropriately. In addition to Karin's impeccable customer service the kitchen cabinets, and counters are made from the best quality materials. In the end Karin and her team went above and beyond for me and my clients. I highly recommend Fisher Gross Kitchen & bath for your next project.

I had a great experience from start to finish. Karin was timely, efficient, engaged and provided excellent advice and creative suggestions. Her times were kept and even her measurements were so precise I did not have left over materials that added to my costs. I am hiring Fisher Gross to Redo my second bath and Kitchen next.

I heartily recommend you contact Fisher Gross if you are planning to remodel your kitchen. Karen redid my kitchen to create my dream come true. I wanted a Mexican cocina feel and she blended her extensive expertise with my ideas perfectly. Her staff are cordial, quiet, and professional. They were right on the button with their finish time. Karen is detail oriented and a wonderful overseer. Every day was used, the job never just sat. The whole experience was positive and I recommend Fisher Gross with highest colors.

We've used Karin at Fisher Gross in 2012 for a complete kitchen and bath remodel. She handled every aspect of the job from design to selection of materials and supervising the on-site installation. It was an enormous job over several months, but we had none of the headaches typical of many home renovations. Karen hired wonderful contractors. Despite the inevitable disruption, we enjoyed having her and her crew as "part of our family" during the work. Karin is excellent at creative problem-solving, working around the idiosyncrasies of our 1912 Craftsman, and paying attention to every detail. She knows it all: from design to what's inside the walls. She's cool in a crisis (our tub delivery was delayed for weeks) and knows how to work effectively with everyone involved. When it came time to remodel our master bath in 2015, we knew immediately that we wouldn't work with anyone else. Can't recommend her highly enough!

Before starting our kitchen remodel, we talked with many friends about their experiences, and everyone who had dealt with Fisher Gross was thrilled with their remodel experience. Our first meeting with Karin Fisher went beautifully--and we signed on. She is very experienced, has terrific taste but also listened carefully to our ideas and needs, met or exceeded all deadlines, was more concerned about our budget than we were, and had the most skilled and friendly professionals working with her. Every step of the way, Karin came to the house to inspect the work/installations. A perfectionist, she would point out things that didn't quite meet her standards: "Could you move that light switch 2" to the left, please?" or "Let's flip that door so the grain is more attractive." She also went with us to select granite, schooling us on what to notice and suggesting cost-cutting alternatives. We cannot recommend her highly enough! She is the consummate professional: honest, knowledgeable, and easy to work with -- a great designer!

Very professional and creative. Karin really helped me walk through the selection process and was very good managing the installation.

Karin Fisher of Fisher Gross is by far one of the best Kitchen and Bath designers and installers. I used her on a kitchen that was considered a "Galley Style Kitchen" and I could not figure out in a million years to get all that I wanted to make this kitchen design work. After just two meetings, Karin provided me 3 proposals all that I loved and it was hard to choose, and even provided my additional ideas for the laundry room just off the kitchen to make the most of the space. I'm so happy with the way that my kitchen turned out, and how professional the installers and that anything that was not to her liking was adjusted at no extra cost. She is an very professional women, great kitchen and bathroom designer and a licensed contractor, so you can the entire package when you hire Fisher Gross. We are so please that we chose her to handle our design, manufacture and install.

Working with Karin on our kitchen remodel design and installation was a breath of fresh air! We did an "Owner Builder" remodel on a 1914 craftsman that had an unfortunate remodel done in the 80's which required major updates to the kitchen/layout including moving and removing walls; lots of moving parts. Of all the trades/vendors working on the home during the remodel she brought to the table the most creative and functional suggestions and ideas along with the greatest attention to detail on the work being done. She visited the job site multiple times even before it came time to do the kitchen install; while others were working and brought to my attention things others were not correctly. She exhibited a hands-on approach that gave me confidence all would be done according to the plan and delivered on time and on budget! (pics before 100% complete)
