We just finished a major house reno which included adding a second story. However, I excluded the kitchen reno from the work bid as the estimate ranged anywhere from $50-80K. So I decided to piece meal everything and do things directly on my own. I have no experience doing this, but I gave it a shot....
I'm glad that I stopped by at Global Kitchen & Bath (just by fluke after I went to Home Depot). There, I met Mr. Hao, a nice gentleman who walked me through the things I need to plan and consider as part of my kitchen reno. Mr. Hao showed be the StarMark cabinets - I was immediately impressed with the quality, workmanship and also read the reviews which validated my decision. The drawers and doors are self closing and the materials are solid!
I discussed my kitchen plan and 'aspiration' to Mr. Hao, then gave him the measurements and layout. He also visited my house to ensure that the everything was accurate and gave me some tips to improve cabinets layouts. He drew the plan on his computer and after many revisions, discussions and back and forth, we nailed the plan for the layout, cabinets and countertops, He recommended his cabinet installer, whom we're very pleased to work with. (Disclosure: the carpenter does not speak English well, but Mr. Hao planned and discussed with him the details prior to his arrival. Installation only took 2 days).
We also decided to buy 2 bathroom vanities (60 & 48 inc). Aimee helped us out a lot and was very patient with us. She is calm and collected the whole time. She communicated all the details to us and provided some insight to improve the layout. The quality of the vanities are great - solid workmanship and all drawers are self closing. Aimee is a great asset to this company - she provides the right balance for superb customer service!
In all, we're extremely happy with Global Kitchen & Bath's products and service. Things can get very stressful esp when you're under pressure when doing a major home project, gets expensive and unforeseen stuff come into play. It comes with the territory and I admit, I lost my cool at some point. But both Mr. Hao and Aimee are professionals and empathize with their customers. We couldn't be happier with the outcome of our kitchen and saved a ton! Thank you Global Kitchen & Bath! read more
