They were extremely knowledgeable and made this experience easy from the selection process through delivery, installation, pool school and beyond. We had one issue and they took care of it immediately - better than we expected them to!

We would highly recommend Premier Pools & Spas!

VERY GOOD EXPERIENCES - We hired this mover to load our stuff onto our rented 12' x 6' trailer…read moreonly. Their minimum - 2guys for 2hrs was $260. There was a text telling us when they would arrive - 2 college kids were meticulously loading what was heaviest and what few things needed to go first. Communications amongst us what excellent. The kids were very knowledgeable, respectful, fast and pleasant. We were resigned to the thought that 2bedroom 2bathroom ranch home worth of accumulations would not fit in this trailer. At the end of the 2hrs, the rest of our possessions were placed in the garage for us to load on our own for the next trip. That was the 2guys' suggestion. As of this review, after unloading the boxes, totes and luggages, we don't know if anything were damaged from their organization of the trailer till now we unpack. We do know that tote lids cracks when another heavy tote is stacked.

First, the crew that moved me was nice. I hired them because they were local and had seemingly…read moregood reviews. However, they broke several big items. They broke a 6 drawer dresser (now the bottom 2 drawers are unusable because they broke part of the side that also had the back leg) , a headboard (completely snapped one of the legs off) and a 55" 4K TV (completely unusable, they cracked the screen). We have moved many times and I understand things happen, but I have never experienced the valuation process that they require. Basically asking for receipts of the item broken and how it got broken. Well, everything was fine and usable before your crew touched it and now it's not. I couldn't watch them while they moved everything and it's unrealistic to even ask that question. When things have been broken in the past with other movers, they made it right and paid to replace the items. They gave me about 30% of replacement value credited back. I still have to replace what you broke, but I'm responsible for the majority of the replacement cost. That's not good customer service. Also, if you have a Sleep Number bed, don't let them touch it. Mine still isn't right. Even though they told me that have had no issues and have moved a lot of them. Well, they don't see the issues because it's after they are gone when you notice there's a problem. I would not use this company again. I would give them .5 stars if I could.

We found Prestige Kitchen and Bath by chance in Des Moines, and I'm so glad we did!…read moreWe were planning to go to Menards or Home Depot, thinking they were more affordable, but I learned that specialized kitchen and bath stores like Prestige are actually a much better choice -- you can find higher quality and great prices too! Jason welcomed us warmly from the start and took the time to explain everything clearly. He showed us their beautiful quartz inventory (which was exactly what I was looking for), the quality of their cabinets, and the strong hardware they use. We were very impressed by both the quality and the value. We decided to go with the full service -- cabinets, countertops, and even a quartz backsplash. Jason and Justin were so kind and professional throughout the process. The installation team made sure everything was perfect, and now I finally have my dream kitchen! I highly recommend Prestige Kitchen and Bath to anyone in Des Moines looking for beautiful, high-quality kitchen cabinets and countertops with excellent customer service.

Prestige has a large selection of countertops. We went with cabinet install and countertop purchase…read moreand install. Then the reality was they did not know how to measure and did so by hand, not laser. They did not have expertise in installing the cabinets which resulted in some things left not done as well as broken. Due to Jason not accurately measuring for the countertops, there was much cutting and grinding to fit that took place at the home instead of in their shop, leaving the debris from the cutting and grinding stone all through the house, inside and outside; they did not even put up plastic sheeting to try to contain the mess. The design of the grain was pieced together in different directions, making for an unappealing look. They also cracked the stone and tried to cover it up with epoxy and then Jason lied about it. We were told it was just extra epoxy that could be scrapped off, which was a lie. After trying that and returning to let Justin know about the fact we were lied to and it was indeed a section of the countertop that the installers had damaged and tried to hide from us, we were offered half off the quoted price and the attempt to try to fill it in, but they could not guarantee the results. It was at this point that we found that we were considered an experiment as they did not have as much experience as we were initially led to believe. First, we would like to deal with a company that has integrity, and second, did not want a new countertop to have the appearance of an old damaged countertop. Justin accepted complete responsibility. We paid another company to uninstall the countertops, as we did not feel comfortable signing a waiver releasing Prestige of any damage they might cause in the removal of countertops. We did get a refund on the price paid after they picked up their product. The new company that we paid to take the countertops off informed us they were not installed properly! There was way too much glue in some places and not enough glue and caulking in other places. The reality that the stone was not securely installed was rather frightening. In placing an order with another company we also found that the square footage Prestige used and initially charged for was over and above what the measurements by the company we are now using were, resulting in charging the customer several hundred dollars for incorrectly measured square footage. Make sure to use a company that uses an accurate laser measurement system.
