We have hired KRB twice, once for a tv room remodel and once for a major kitchen remodel (actually…read moremost of the first floor), and would highly recommend them. They have all the staff necessary to: design and plan the remodel, get structural engineering plans, building permits, estimate costs, and then make the plan a reality. Any sub-contractors are fully supervised and corrected as necessary. For example, our countertop contractors were balking at how tight a radius some of the corners were planned to be, the owner of KRB got them to remove the countertops again and buy the right tooling to cut the planned corner radius. This level of attention to detail has be prevalent throughout our experiences with KRB.

Working with KRB was a dream. It was stress free and exactly what we wanted from the beginning…read more Meagan helped us make our dream come to life, Erik made sure the process went smoothly from the moment they entered the house to when the contractors left every day. All their contractors were friendly, understanding and very clean. The app made everything easy to organize, understand the plan, and see the progress as well as the schedule. As an A type personality this was everything I needed to have confidence in the outcome. We can't wait to work with them on our next big project.

When I spoke to Lee, I immediately felt I was in better hands. I went to their showroom that afternoon to look at material choices and was very pleased. Lee wrote up an estimate that day and I signed on! They are a very nice company to work with - responsive, respectful, and conscientious workers. I absolutely love my new kitchen. So now I'm having them remodel my two bathrooms. I highly recommend this company.

I can't say enough good things about this team and would recommend them to anyone looking to complete a kitchen remodel - big or small. Thanks, Lee & Team!

PK surroundings helped create a beautiful new kitchen and 2 new bathrooms in my downtown condo…read more They planned, ordered and finished the kitchen which is bigger, brighter and has so much more useable space besides being gorgeous. One bathroom was done to maximize space and create a beautiful accessible handicapped bath and the other was created to be a comfortable guest bath.

I came in her looking for help remodeling two bathrooms in my home. I've never done this before, so…read moreI decided to find a place with a showroom to get some help. From the moment I walked in, I felt like nobody wanted to talk or work with me. I spoke with someone (purposely not naming names) who pacified my time there. I had a specific vision for what I was looking for and was disappointed in what he showed me. He told me they could work with my design and that they would text me and email me some information and I would be able to text pictures of my current bathrooms and we could get started from there. It has been over a week and I have received zero follow up. No text. No email. Nothing. I tried to call the store and the owner answered. I didn't know he was the owner and I tried to ask for a manager or someone who I could follow up with. I was told he was the manager and he was with a customer and I could call back. Didn't offer to let me speak to someone else in the store. Didn't offer to get my info and call me back. So, clearly I was dismissed again, so now I am done. I guess if you don't walk in wearing diamonds and clearly displaying your bank account balances, your money isn't good enough there. Not sure what you have to do to be taken seriously enough to get some follow up. But the owner seems like quite a jerk. Follow up is everything for a small business. If you're looking for proactive people who want to help you with a bathroom remodel, or remodels in my case, keep looking.
