TS KITCHEN PROJECTS

Traian did a great job estimating, designing and installing our ikea kitchen. He was a great help making some sound suggestions. The work was done in a timely and efficient manor. Traian is very easy to get along with and he follows through with what he promises and he ensures that the job is done right. My husband and I really enjoyed working with him.

We hired TS Kitchen (Traian) to full replace the builders kitchen in a 8 year old house we just purchased. The current kitchen was on a smaller scale and not the style we were looking for. Our plan was to fully renovate the main floor, making it open concept, by removing a 5’ wall dividing the kitchen from the family/dining room. We also decided to have hardwood all over, including the kitchen. We found Traian on Houzz, when we were looking for ideas for a modern kitchen. We were leaning towards having it all store bought, but that changed . Traian came to perform all measurements prior to the full reno, so many of the lengths were as per our “up to here” and “this is what we want”. We have pre-purchased all new appliances, so we knew it roughly where we wanted things. While the renos were occurring, Traian was providing us with professional computer generated drawings of our kitchen, and in return we were providing him our feedback, including changes we wanted. It was very easy. Traian based on his professionalism knew what would work and provided feedback as to what would not/would not look good. Including recommending a specific built-in ventilation hood. In the end based on having 9 foot ceilings and wanting to use the most of it, we settled on the final design that was semi custom. Basically it was all ready made bought cabinet boxes, but all “faces” were custom ordered. This also included modifying the ready made boxes in order to make the design work. We also settled on the colours, with his suggestions. When it was time to start, Traian was very professional. He would bring in his top of the line tools, and clean up after him self each day. You can consider Traian a perfectionists. He would make sure that when it comes to level-ing, he was no more than 0.05 degrees off. That is crazy... in a good way. It took a while to finish up all the work, due to various aspects, like waiting for the custom size doors/panels from manufacturers, ordered parts, counter top installations, as well asks (our) for various last minute modifications once the installation was in full swing. Plus at times, we needed to wait for a short while for Traian to finish another project, which he took up while we were waiting for the above. His business/services are very much wanted by many. In the end the kitchen looks great. Getting rave from anyone coming over to our house. I would recommend TS Kitchens to everyone, and look forward to working together if I have another project in the future. See pictures attached for the final “masterpiece”.

I hired TS Kitchen Projects to complete the installation of my new Ikea kitchen which I had designed myself (silly me!). I couldn't be happier with the finished product and working with Traian and Jose was a real pleasure. Positives: - Very prompt replies to calls and emails. Traian is the best at getting back to you - Jose is very precise with his work. He takes his time but you know that it will be done right - Both have a wealth of experience with the Ikea product and will use it to your advantage - Hard working and determined to make you happy - Very competitively priced - Jose was very neat and kept the area so tidy it was also like a reno wasn't happening Tips for you: - Hire TS Kitchens to do it all! Don't be like me who hired my own trades for the various elements and was then left in the lurch by the plumber. Thank goodness for Traian's network of trades or the timeline for the kitchen would have been derailed - When you read in other reviews "Have no fear Traian is here!" believe it because it is so true! Disclaimer - my cell phone pictures do not really do justice to the beautiful dream kitchen that TS Kitchens installed

Semi-custom Ikea kitchen is 70 % custom and 30 % ikea Cesarstone installer thought it was a Scavolini at first sight Appliance installers said it was the easiest install into an IKEA kitchen and were very impressed by the level of detail. Traian , Jose and Don are responsive, polite ,attentive and clean up after every visit. Traian is no less of a perfectionist than myself- but at the same time is practical and at every opportunity tries to save you time and money. He is open to new ideas and requests; he is a craftsman and has a great eye for design and proportions. I would highly recommend TS kitchens for the discerning customer.

I'm extremely happy with TS Kitchens. From the initial correspondence by email to the day my kitchen was completed the experience has been positive and professional. Traian and Jose worked for 4 days on my kitchen. They worked long hours and gave up 2 days of this Thanksgiving weekend. They helped me with a stressful project and turned my kitchen into a dream. Traian's ideas to modify cabinets to help create more space in my kitchen was extremely helpful for me. Jose has an eye to make sure the cabinets are aligned and sitting properly.. He won't stop til they are perfect. TS Kitchens cleaned up after each day of work and involved me in any changes that were being made from my plans. They offered me good solid advice. I can't say enough about the workmanship and professionalism of TS Kitchens. I can now walk into my kitchen and say "I LOVE IT " The best text message a client receive from a contractor is this: "Don't have fear Traian is here" This made my day knowing Traian and Jose were going to finish my kitchen today!!! :) This alone speaks volumes on the dedication Traian has for his clients. He takes pride in his work and shows when he speaks of past and present clients. Thank you for helping me create a kitchen I will love to cook and entertain in. Being Italian ... You all know how much we love our kitchens to be perfecto!! Call TS Kitchens ... You won't be disappointed

TS kitchens created a kitchen space that is something truly breath taking. When we first decided to do an Ikea kitchen we were not sure who to go with as there were many contractors who claimed to do a great job. I found Traian and was so glad I did. he showed up on time to do an initial consultation as we ripped out the old kitchen right down to the studs and floor joists also removed a wall to create an open concept. His design was beautiful and we opted to go with him. The process and experience was amazing Traian and Jose went above and beyond to create a beautiful space. Traian has years of experience and it shows as no problem was to big for him. he customized a number of pieces to give me the look and space I needed the end result absolutely flawless. they also cleaned up after which is rare so you know they care. they treated my home with respect like it was their own. I've attached some before and after pics so you get the idea. I would recommend them again and again without hesitation.

Traian and Jose did an amazing job in our kitchen. Despite having a super packed summer, TS Kitchen still managed to fit my project in and cleaned up thoroughly afterwards. Traian can be counted on his candor and the results are wonderful. Jose is really friendly and approachable. We love our Ikea kitchen....it's great to work with someone who really knows the strengths and limitations of Ikea yet can still do unique things to make the kitchen a custom one!

We’ve been always very impressed with the look and functionality of the IKEA kitchens. Price was a concern for us, as was the quality of the materials and level of workmanship, so getting this project done at a price that doesn't break the bank is quite a chore. Since we wanted to have some modifications done to our existing layout we were looking for someone to assist us with the re-design, order and installation process for the new cabinets. While doing some research we found TS Kitchen and that kind of a company was exactly what we’re looking for. Professional, helpful, reasonable, open and honest. There is nothing more that you can ask from a kitchen renovation company and this is what we’ve received from TS Kitchen. From the first call until the very last end, Traian has giving us always the best advice and he accommodated any modification we wanted. His attention to detail was exceptional, and the installation was completed quickly. There were times when his ideas and vision helped us overcome our concerns or uncertainties. Needless to say, we are thrilled with our new kitchen and would recommend TS Kitchen to anyone looking to have their kitchen renovated.

We liked very much the IKEA kitchens from two friends that had renovated recently and we asked who had done the job. We are so glad they recommended Traian. He did a splendid job solving creatively the challenges in our old and partially renovated house with uneven walls and ceiling, his recommendations allowing us to maximize the use of the limited space in our small kitchen. Traian has the experience and the dedication that led to a job finished to our and his satisfaction, the latter to higher standards than our expectations; he is the type of contractor you can trust. His team companion Jose was very efficient and cautious with details and both were a pleasure to have working in our house. We have a couple of friends that are looking to renovate their kitchen and we will certainly recommend Traian.

I am a contractor in Toronto. TS Kitchens installed an IKEA kitchen for us, and they were on budget and on schedule. They were able to modify certain cabinets to greatly improve the design of the kitchen, and all of their installers were great to work with. I will be using this company again many times in the future.

Traian was recommended to us by a friend after hearing that we were in a desperate need of having some cabinetry and storage bench lid work done...properly. Our original basement reno hired contractor left us with a, let's just call it "less than optimal" working environment for this cabinetry and bench work to be finished, and we needed to find someone trustworthy, who could solve and tackle those challenges in a professional way. Traian met and exceeded our expectations. The work performed was phenomenal, and we were able to understand all the ins and outs as to where, when, how, and why things were going and being done. My wife and I are more than happy with the service and work provided, and are thrilled to have such a reliable professional in our Rolodex going forward, for any similar work needed to be done.

Traian and his team did a wonderful job on our kitchen installation. We had a kitchen fire a year ago and the whole process of getting the house restored has been very stressful but once we hired Traian to do the kitchen that aspect of the project became much easier for us. It was a big job and tricky at times but we now have a fabulous Ikea kitchen, custom built to our specifications. Traian was great to work with and made sure that everything was done the way we wanted it to be. I particularly appreciated that he took care to ask about small details, such as which way I wanted cupboard doors to open, which depended on which side of the door I stand when using the cabinetry on a daily basis. Doesn't sound like much but when you come to actually use your kitchen you realize how important those small details are! Traian is friendly and very easy to work with, as are his team. The total cost of the project was very reasonable and we are very happy with the finished result. If, in the future, we ever need to do another kitchen reno we would hire Traian again for sure.
