Bottom line: I do not recommend KSI and do not plan to hire them ever again. Read on for more…read moredetails. The design process was relatively easy - I sent the designer photographs of the bathroom, dimensions that I provided, and a Pinterest inspo page that I created to reflect our design taste. From these, she created a project proposal with estimate. My husband and I appreciated the level of service early in the process compared to other companies we contacted, felt comfortable with our quote, and decided to move forward with KSI. After this, there was a brief visit to our home by the designer and contractor to confirm measurements. A visit to the KSI showroom finalized our cabinetry, flooring, and counter selections. You will not be able to buy lighting or plumping fixtures from KSI and you will be sent elsewhere. If you want a high level of service with your designer, that will not happen with KSI - They do not accompany you on these trips or provide input. The designer was responsive throughout the process, but I do feel like she was overly busy sometimes and I did feel like her attention to detail was sometimes lacking. While the design process was relatively easy - Maybe a 3 star process - The actual renovation was 1 star and absolutely the reason that we will never use KSI again. The project was originally estimated to take 3-4 weeks... Actual time: 2.5 months. The workers consistently showed up late in the day - mostly after 4pm - if at all, and made it clear that we were their last priority. When confronted about the delays, which were absolutely due to short work hours and no show days, the contractor became defensive and extremely difficult to communicate with thereafter with long stretches of no responses to questions and ludicrous excuses. It was extremely distressing because other work that was being done on our home needed to be delayed multiple times, while we waited for the bathroom to be finished. We had to have some return visits for very subpar work, mostly related to improper wall preparation and painting, but overall, the workmanship was fine. Even after the work has been done almost a month, we are still waiting for the designer to make her final visit where final billing will be given. She says that the delay is because they are waiting on a gift basket. Really?! This must be some gift basket! I cannot wait to be truly done with KSI. This was a trial run for other projects we want done, including large projects of kitchen and master bathroom remodel, and I would love to say that KSI will miss our business but I am not sure that they even care or will notice.

Very pleased with the service and advice we received at KSI. My wife and I have worked with Jill J…read more On a couple of bath remodels and couldn't be happier.

The potatoes were pre-cooked and one person from each table got to smash them. We were given all the ingredients for the pie and we threw it all together and into a pan.

I found a countertop and asked questions about veining because the countertops that I picked out had veins. First off the guy came to measure the countertops and they were cut two short and they gave us a hard time about that and then to tell me that I could have my contractor fill in the holes. Second I decided to use the countertops as back splashes and again asked the question about the veins matching. They told me they would match. Not the case at all. When they came to install for a second time the veins do not match the backsplashes after I was told they would. They claimed they never said this which is not true and told me that I had buyers remorse. For a $10,000 job they are doing sloppy work and do not care about the customers. I had asked about a discount because now I have to live with ugly countertops that do not match and will only receive a 5% discount which is nothing. The owner does not care about his customers and only cares about his money. Buyers beware of this place.

But these days I also add national parks merch, gear for my dogs, holiday decor, kitchen gadgets and cookbooks and, perhaps most exciting for a Polish broad like myself, a variety of Polish pottery pieces.

Even after years out in the elements everything I've bought for my yard here is still in amazing condition, my plants from here always yield the most delicious fruits and veggies, and the little birdies are so happy with the snacks we provide them from their bins.

Along the past decade, I have had the chance to work with Alain on multiple projects, each one of them presenting tremendous challenges.

Cindy is AMAZING! She gets a feel for who you are and what your tastes are in a very short time. She's also very strategic about her work. She helps you plan from the broad to the specific, and works with the flow of the whole house as well as individual rooms. She is BRILLIANT at color and lighting, and does all of the legwork to find other materials that complement the project. She came back with a range of recommendations that all reflect what we discussed. (At the time I was redoing all of the rooms in a small home on the West side). Everything was completely affordable and in almost every instance I went with her suggestions. Shortly after doing all the work I put the house on the market and got RAVE reviews on everything. When I moved into my new home, we needed to paint and do a few other upgrades. Again, Cindy came to the rescue and ten years later, I'm still getting complements on the paint colors and other advice she gave me. She's now helping with a kitchen facelift, and I'm so grateful to have her guidance. I've learned a great deal about how to pick things and make them work together in the time I've spent with her. For big projects she'll always be the first person I call. Not that we agree on every detail, but she always gives me the "best practice" so that I have a foundation for making my choices. Cindy is COMPLETELY affordable and worth every penny.

I have completed two projects with them and currently working on a third. The first project was a significant residential renovation in downtown Ann Arbor. We were moved out of our home for nine months to complete this project. They took our 1920's Craftsman and turned it in to a fully functional home that still maintained all it's original charm. In this project we did a full kitchen remodel, two bathrooms, addition, added basement space and restored existing foundation. This process had a lot of potential issues that they helped to smooth out and make enjoyable. We know have a beautiful home that works perfectly for our family and I largely credit them with making it happen. The second and current projects are for my business in downtown Ann Arbor. They are amazing with re-imaging small or limited spaces. When I decided to take over more space from my existing building I didn't even want to come up with my own ideas till I could see what Theresa would envision. She has also been a very strong advocate for me in dealing with my landlord and the city on permitting and other concerns. She makes my life much easier, My decision to take on the current project was dependant on the Angelinis being on board. They also do great finsh design and selection. They have selected paint colors, flooring, cabinetry, plumbing fixtures and just about any other detail you may not even know you need. They provide a detail oriented approach from start to end. If you are thinking of taking on a construction or renovation project of any size, do your self a favor and speak with them. Obviously, I can not say enough positive things about them.

I can't say enough good things about DreamMaker Bath and Kitchen! From the start, they made the whole remodeling process so easy for us. They kept us updated every step of the way, always making sure we knew what was happening and when. It felt like they really listened to what we wanted and made sure our vision came to life. Anytime I had a question, they were quick to answer and super clear about everything. It was such a relief knowing things were always under control. Everyone on their team was amazing! They were all so professional, but also really down-to-earth and friendly. You could tell they really knew their stuff, from the design all the way through the construction. The whole process was so organized, and they made sure everything stayed on track. I never had to worry about anything going wrong or getting delayed.

About one year ago I decided to remodel. Having seen an example of Dream Maker's work, I chose them to do my place. The quality of their work is the best I have encountered. They kept to the schedule the plan called for. During the work they did all one could ask to minimize the disruption to the household.
