Kitchen Designers in Berkeley

“We had very positive experiences working with Nadja and her team at Knocknock Kitchen and Bath Design. She worked with us on a complete remodel of our master bathroom and a secondary bathroom and helped us with design decisions for master bedroom. Nadja has an excellent eye and is on top of current trends. She is also very adaptable to different budgets and offered few suggestions on how to save as well as what is worth splurging for. Nadja was very easy to work with – easy to communicate with, working with us on our timeline, spending extra time, and open to revisions of the original design. Her team was very expedient in preparation of architectural designs for permit submission. We are very happy with the final products and would love to work with Nadja and Knockknock design again. I highly recommend their services.”

“The project that EBCON Co. did for me wrapped up about a week ago. I thought they did an excellent job. The project was to design and build an ensuite addition to my house for my disabled sister, who will be moving in with me in a couple of months. I hired EBCON for the project as they had done my home remodel when I moved into my current house 10 years ago. I was very happy with that project and pleased that several of their key personnel and subcontractors were the same as for my previous project. The current project consisted of a bedroom/studio, bath, hallway/study, walk-through clothes closet, lots of storage space, and small outdoor patio with wheelchair ramp. As my sister is an artist and art teacher, we asked for a design that provided high walls for hanging her paintings and extra space in the bedroom/studio for her to paint and potentially teach a few students. The design process went very well. The designer worked constructively with us and made numerous trips to tile, stone, and carpet stores with us to select materials. We greatly appreciated the detailed plan skeches she generated, some of which showed my sister’s paintings up on the walls in her bedroom/studio! Challenges, including access to the addition through existing bedrooms and integrating the design with the existing house, were solved well. ADA guidelines for accessibility were strictly followed for the design and materials. We – and all our family and friends - love the design and how it has turned out. The construction work was very high quality – EBCON has very high standards for the work done on their projects, including for the smallest details. The EBCON team and the sub-contractors they brought in were great to work with through all the stages, including design, construction, and completion. In addition to weekly on-site progress meetings (which included the project manager, superintendent, designer, and often the head of the company), I was kept informed on a daily basis about what was happening and the timing for next steps. EBCON staff were always on site while work was being done, and they were always reachable for conversations. Overall we are very happy with the project. I would definitely use EBCON again were I to have another project, and I recommend them without reservation to anyone planning a large or small home construction or renovation project.”

“Anne worked with us to remodel our bathroom. She made the process so easy and the outcome was wonderful! She was accommodating, meeting with my husband and myself throughout the process and helping us make choices. If she hadn't worked with us, it would have been much more challenging! Having the design plans made the work for the contractors so much easier, too. I would highly recommend Anne and if we do more work in the future, we will be reaching out to her!”
