As we went through my condo, she immediately made me feel good about where I was at and what was possible. She set realistic ideas, helped me imagine what I could do with what I have today, and she let me dream a bit too. I'm excited to implement what we put together and will certainly reach back out to Melanie as I dig in.

We have been wanting to make some changes and did not know where to begin. We started the two hours completely clueless and ended with a solid, easy-to-follow plan. She is hands on and got right to work. Our living room is now rearranged in a way we had never considered (much more open and accessible) and after she left, we spent the evening there, hanging out as a family. And this weekend we have an action plan to move forward on additional updates. We are relieved, happy and excited! We highly recommend you stop reading these reviews and go book an appt or get on her wait list now. Do it! You can thank us later!

We used Cabinet Expressions after looking at two other renovation companies and pricing top line cabinets from Home Depot. I'm so happy we ended up with Cabinet Expressions.

They came to us highly recommended by a friend and everything we heard was true.

What felt overwhelming to me, she handled with total confidence and zero judgment. The before and after? Night and day. We not only have a beautifully organized, functional space but we actually have more open space than before. I didn't think that was possible! Everything has a home now, and I can actually find things. If you're on the fence, stop overthinking it (I say that with love). Book it. You deserve a space that works for you, not against you. Kielyn and her team are the real deal. 10/10, no notes!

I wanted to recognize Jarod and Jodi at B & B Carpet One in Chanhassen for their outstanding…read moresupport and expertise during our recent carpet purchase for our home. We had a stairway runner and carpet throughout our upstairs that were worn from years of use, including traffic from three kids. Throughout the carpet selection process at Carpet One, Jodi's guidance made it easy for us to choose the perfect carpet--her knowledge and patience truly made a difference. For the stairway runner, we had a specific design in mind and eventually found it online at a different merchant. We truly appreciated Jarod's flexibility and willingness to have their installers handle the stair runner installation along with the carpet they sold us. After selecting the carpet, we realized we needed refinishing on the stained and painted surfaces of our stairway before runner installation. Jarod found a skilled painter to handle that part of the work. Once the painting and staining were completed, their installation crew--Sam and Corey--arrived and meticulously installed both the carpet and runner. We are genuinely grateful for their attention to detail, professionalism, and personable approach. Their focus on perfection throughout the installation was evident, and working with them was a pleasure. In the end, everything looks fantastic, and we could not be happier with the results. Thank you for going above and beyond to help us. We sincerely appreciate the expertise and dedication of everyone involved. We would recommend B & B Carpet One to anyone considering re-flooring their home. Thank you all for making our home feel new again.

We selected this place because it was local. Mistake! They were helpful in the selection process…read more The installers come in - never even introduce theirselves. They do the job. Their goal as stated to me is to "clean up at least 90% of the post installation mess". We had 0% cleaned up. Carpet threads all over the house, staples all over the floors. We ran the vacuum at least 10x to get all of the debris picked up. Shortly after install we notice visible seams. A large one with an unfinished area in the main room. Another very visible seam in the bedroom. They did send a repair specialist to attempt to fix the seam. After being told they would "re-stretch" and fix, he was at the house for 10 minutes. Threw 2 staples down and hit the seem with a carpet hammer. Off he went. So much for the re-stretch. So much for the mentioned independent inspection. It looks the same. Not to mention, coming 1:45min late for the repair appointment. Also, the man I spoke to "Mike" with horrific customer service speaking to me like I was his child. Lecturing me how to justify the incompetence of the installers. We try to support local. AWFUL all around ! Embarrassing.

Kristiaan is, hands down, the best contractor you will find in the Twin Cities. My husband was…read morecatastrophically injured in an accident and we were told we need to move somewhere that can accommodate his wheelchair and other disability needs. Very expensive. When we reached out to Kristiaan to ask if he could help us remodel our kitchen, he not only agreed to give us a quote without charge, he also came to our house and taped out the entire design on the floor, no charge. None of the other contractors were willing to put in that kind of time and effort without a guarantee that they would get the job. Kristiaan not only worked with the IKEA plans we had designed, but he further figured out the engineering required to support the large, open span that we had to have suspended over my husband's wheelchair. Everything you see in the photos is brand new and done by Kristiaan. What you don't see is that, on the other side where we already had IKEA cabinets, he moved the entire cabinet run over and built a stabilized support for our new kitchen sink. He also worked with the countertop installers to get us the cutouts that we needed, and recommended the best outlet/lighting system for us. And when IKEA dropped the ball and failed to deliver the promised toekicks, Kristiaan developed a workaround and personally went to IKEA to pick them up for us. A good friend of mine who is a luxury home builder in the Twin Cities said that Kristiaan basically fulfilled the idea of "aging in place" that is extremely popular now. Instead of moving to a "senior" type development, hire Kristiaan instead to make over your current home into your dream home. Disability, aging, or other circumstances don't necessarily mean you have to leave the home you love. Thank you, Kristiaan, for your impeccable work and your incredible decency.

Kristiaan was very responsive via email and a huge help in the design process given his knowledge of Ikea's products - we felt very prepared placing our order whereas others in the showroom seemed lost. This is a more cost effective way to remodel, but is not the same as using a general contractor i.e. you have to manage timing in your project for electrical, plumbing, counters, paint. Our installation was timely, professional, and they kept a clean workspace. Great company!

We were at a crossroads and not sure if we should move or remodel. Our family loved our house and location and thanks to Gary and Kelley at Knight Construction we were able to stay. First we had to get a plan, and they were very helpful with ideas of what would and wouldn't work with our home. Who knew a kitchen could transform the entire feeling of a house. We could not be happier with the results. The staff was so friendly and nice to work and they did such a beautiful job. Attention to detail and quality is something that is hard to come by these days and it was very refreshing to work with such a dedicated company who stands behind their word. Thank you Kelley and Gary for a job well done! Sincerely, The Bjork family

We hired Knight Construction this past summer to complete a total kitchen remodel project with…read morecustom cabinets, new hardwood fooring and the resurfacing an old brick fireplace with stone. We asked Knight if they could complete the work in just six short weeks as my family (my husband and three kids under the age of five) were moving into a small apartment for three months due to timing differences in our close dates. They accommodated the request with the caveat that the bulk of the work would be completed by move in and that finishing/warranty work may need to extend another week or two. Upon signing the contract, we immediately began working with Kristin, the designer, to ensure fixtures, flooring and other items were selected and available upon closing on the new home. The day after signing the close papers, the dumpster was delivered and Jeff our project manager began demolition with his crew. I won't tell you that the project was seemless in every instance and without a couple of minor glitches. But I can tell you that in ever instance, Gary and team worked with us immediately to either remedy the issue or help us find the best solution to accommodate our budget concerns and ensure our move in date wasn't jeopardized. Over the past 10 years, we have remodeled two homes and built a third. I have used three different Companies for each of these projects and I would without question hire Knight Construction back to do another project. Over the short few months we worked with Gary and his team, he always kept his word and remedied situations that weren't up to either his quality or ours, which were minimal. I appreicated the fact that three months after the project, I'm still able to call and ask him to look at something I think got missed in the warranty period. In both circumstances he's sent someone over within days to address my concern. I would recommend him to anyone. His work is quality and it's beautiful!
