    After my plumber came to see what I thought was an issue with my water line.  This is the level of work you get from these crooks!

    one star because zero is not an option. Just cross the street and go to Lowe's. I had had a good experience with the Arlington store in the past and I try to pick local even though it costs more (and it definitely did) but this place is a nightmare. Nothing is in stock so you are guessing what things will look like. I changed one item pre-delivery and over a month later they still have not refunded nearly $400. delivery was a disaster as despite the fee for each and every appliance the installers were completely incompetent and didn't hook up my ice-maker. I tipped them well, too, not realizing what they had (not) done. when I brought up my issues and the fact I had to pay a plumber to come hook up my ice maker that I had already paid and tipped to have connected I got a vague promise to contact corporate but never heard anything. And still no refund. what a bunch of scammers. I could have had the same appliance suite for $2,000 less also. it is a shame they ruined their company like this.

    Where my oven that I've been waiting 444 would go

    Last update- Waited to hear back from Aaron but still nothing Update- Aaron I emailed you; waiting to hear back Been waiting 444 DAYS for my paid in full Bray & Scarff Oven and it's STILL NOT HERE with no ETA! Only got my refrigerator after waiting 12 MONTHS!! In March 2021 I sold my house and used the equity in sale to purchase a total fixer upper that no on wanted - even in the COVID sellers market. I'm a single working mother of two toddlers but dug deep and used all my strength, limited funds and can-do attitude and fully flipped the new house. The first thing I wanted was a GE Cafe white matte with copper handle kitchen set as I've had my eyes on it for years and have been saving. It was my one high end designer splurge. I lived near the Bray & Scarff on Richmond Highway, Alexandria and the first thing I did when I signed the deed on my new house was go to Bray & Scarff to purchase my dream GE cafe kitchen kit. I used all my savings to buy the cafe kitchen set, and 2 washer and 2 dryers, spending $14552 in one day, in which I left a $8552 deposit. This was on 25 Mar 2022. It's been 444 days and I have yet to receive the cafe oven I purchased over 14 months and 19 days ago. I've been living without an over this entire time. It's a big gap in my kitchen. The oven, refrigerator, dishwasher and microwave the previous users were completely broken and were removed from the premise when I remodeled my kitchen. It's been challenging because I have 2 toddlers and as a single mother I live in a multigenerational house since the cost of living is so high so my disabled parents and my BFF and her daughter also live with me. We've all have been without an over this entire time. When I purchased the kitchen set from Bray & Scraff they estimated that it would take 2-8weeks to deliver my oven, refrigerator, dishwasher and microwave and pressured me repeatedly that my order would be prioritized and delivery would be expedited if I pay the balance in full. I did not want to b/c i did not want to tie up my only money. Mid May, I relented after a couple of weeks of pestering and used the reminder of my savings to pay for the kitchen appliances. I should have known there were problems ahead when the microwave came 27 May and the dishwasher wasn't delivered until 14 Jun. The refrigerator did not come until 1 Mar 22 - almost a full year. It was ridiculous. Every time I called Sandy, the salesperson said he couldn't give me estimated arrival dates. I have countless emails to him saying he doesn't know when my fully paid for appliances will arrive. I asked multiple times for a loaner fridge and oven am told it's not feasible by Sandy. I didn't get delivery updates on my order unless I asked. In November 21, ahead of the holidays I asked to return the dishwasher and microwave because I didn't want to do another day without a fridge or oven but I was told Bray and Scarff only sells new products, and if they accepted my dishwasher and microwave back, after being in my home they would not re-sell them. It would be a total loss for the company, which they are not willing to accept.  The last call was in May 22 when we inquired about the oven yet again. Despite blaming the delays on an "industry-wide" supply shortage, Sandy said that the local Best Buy was selling the same oven model that I've been waiting 14 months. He encouraged me to not cancel my order and wait it out with no ETA in site. Best Buy and competitors have hiked the price up $600 on the same model and I asked Bray & Scarff to make amends and help pay the price difference since they have not kept up their end of the bargain and I've ridiculously patient. But of course, they said no, b/c why would they do anything to help the customer. Because I ordered a matte white set I couldn't just cancel my fridge and oven and order a more common stainless steel set b/c nothing would match, defeating the whole purpose.   I contacted Bray & Scarff Alexandria manager to elevate my issue -- no response. I contacted Bray & Scarff Corporate Office to elevate my issue -- no response. I contacted GE Corporate Sales to elevate my issue -- no help. They told me to elevate it to the Bray & Scraff regional division, in which I did and guess what, no response. I've resisted writing a bad review since it not my style but it's been 444 days and can't believe how horrible Bray & Scarff Sales and Inventory Ordering is. This is the worst worst company. Horrible experience working with this company!

    Do not recommend. Had a very poor experience with getting a new oven. Ended up costing us almost double.

    To follow up, I sent the direct message as asked. No one ever responded, which from reading the other reviews is par for the course.

I asked him about delivery and hallaway he also helped me with that. I asked if there's anybody that could assist with setting up the Google and he said no and he said is that OK. I said no is there a manager. He hung up the phone on me . I am calling for a friend because he is now legally blind and needs assistance.

Transparency was there throughout the purchasing process in prices, installation charges, and stock availability. In particular, I appreciated receiving notice of damage to one of the machines before delivery. Now Appliance reordered the machine from the manufacturer and is prepared to deliver and install when in stock for no extra charge. The salesman, Chris, was responsive both by phone and email. He was very helpful in selecting the appliances that fit our budget. If I had my wish, the online catalog would be easier to navigate as it has no search/filter feature.

    Having read other Yelp reviews - I just want to concur that this is the worst company I have ever…read moreencountered. Also please be aware that they seem to have rebranded as Progress Kitchen and Bath, which interestingly does not have a Yelp listing. **** I signed with Kitchen and Bath Shop (now I believe known as Progress Kitchen and Bath) in March 2024 for a project that was to take 30-35 business days. It still is not complete (2+ years later), and I have not had contact from them in over two months. I could provide a very in-depth critique of their operations but here's the key challenges they have: very high staff turnover - I am on project manager #9 (at least) and there is zero communication among project managers. They have very weak permitting capability (I had to develop my own contacts with Alexandria, VA personally). When work was done, it was usually just 1-2 people taking 2 hr lunch breaks. Project managers were almost never on site. I had planned to move to an AirBnB for 3 months to let them work faster. Instead, I ended up there for a year at considerable extra cost to myself. The list goes on - what you need to know is to avoid this group at all costs. One last thing - they seem to change business names, so I suggest asking any kitchen and bath contractor if they are associated with Kitchen and Bath Shop or Progress Kitchen and Bath. If the answer is yes, you can just say no. Stay safe out there.

    I initially reviewed this company over a year ago, but removed the review after the company reached…read moreout to offer to fix their issues, saying their priority was making sure I was happy. Then they completely ghosted me. If you want a space that fills you with regret and anger every time you enter it - choose Kitchen and Bath Shop. These folks are both incompetent at every level, and also some of the shadiest people I've ever dealt with (and to be clear, a former landlord of mine was literally a member of the Genovese crime family). There are too many issues to list within Yelp's limits. Briefly: 1) They can't install flooring or grout the floor properly. They came out to "fix" the issue multiple times and then just ghosted me. Loose floor tiles with crumbling grout ever since they "completed" the reno. 2) They will do a poor job. They will pretend they didn't make a mistake and then they will blame you for the mistake they made. They installed a shower in our bathroom and the water only came out all hot or all cold. They tried to tell me that some shower heads were just that way. They messed up the installation of our vanity and initially said the only fix was for us to pay for a new custom counter - I had to fight them tooth and nail on both for a halfway decent response. 3) They tried to shake me down for final payment while there were still multiple unfinished issues. 4) They use garbage components/suppliers - tiling has marks and is poorly installed. Fixtures break down quickly. This is no where near the complete list. You are better off doing a bathroom reno yourself, blindfolded and drunk. Do not use this company.
