Happy Homeowners

Kitchen Refresh amazing transformation! The last upgrade we needed was our kitchen cabinets. we loved our granite counters so we did not want to lose those so we chose to upgrade our doors and drawers. Jennifer our design consultant worked with our wants and needs and came up with a marvelous transformation that we couldn't be more happy with. The quality of Kitchen Refresh materials really exceeded our expectations. The only thing that was a little concerning was the factory time frame to manufacture our chosen items. Jennifer's work on our project was fully outstanding, and the longer then normal wait (due to special colors), was totally worth it. We're so happy with the results!

I definitely recommend Jen and her team. They were super accurate, clean, always came in time and cleaned after themselves every single day. I love how my renovated kitchen looks like. It’s stylish and simple at the same time! Jen helped to figure out how to organize the space when we changed the inside of the cabinets. What is great also - I could still use it every single day during renovations, with 2 kids at home is was life saving. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Excellent job! If you are looking for attention to detail and making sure things are above standard then you need to request Jennifer Steidele as she knows her craft and goes above and beyond. Very happy with our cabinets and will also!

Full renovations can take months. Our process transforms your kitchen in just 1-5 days, so you can enjoy it almost immediately.

Quality Concerns
