Had a great experience with Kitchen Kreations for my kitchen remodel. Chris and his team were extremely helpful and made the whole process smooth. The cabinets came out great, and the plumbing and electrical work were done professionally. Everything also went smoothly with the city, which was a huge plus. Overall, really solid work and great communication, would definitely recommend. read more

Chris and his crew did a great job on a small kitchen alteration and range hood installation. They were very nice and respectful of property. Everything was cleaned up nicely after and Chris made sure everything met our expectations. We are having them refinish our cabinets next year! read more

We are really please with Chris and his team. They did a fabulous job on our custom vanity and quartz down to every little detail. They were also able to perfectly customize our quartz for our shower bench and threshold as well. They are friendly and responsive. We'd definitely work with them again. read more

So disappointed we used Kitchen Kreations. We paid for Aspect cabinetry which carry a 15 year warrantee. Within the first year all the cabinets near the sink, trash and coffeemaker started to warp and peel. They can't handle normal moisture. Turns out they were not made of wood, but particle board. I took pictures of the warping and sent it to whomever the owner is (I forgot her name). She said, "yeah, that's not Aspect. Do you have your invoice?" I never received the invoice. The transaction went through the builder Wrightway Builders and was included with the entire remodel. I contacted Wrightway Builders and they said they never received an invoice. According to the owner of Kitchen Kreations, they have no record of ever doing business with us. Chris was our contact from Kitchen Kreations, so I asked her if Chris was still there and she said yes. I asked her to ask him but she refused. I said I felt like there was a bait and switch and she was so offended that she stopped returning my calls and emails. We have a drawer that won't shut, we have to use a rag wedged in it to keep it shut. I asked for someone to come out and fix it and she was totally unhelpful in every possible way. To spend over $35000 on new cabinets and be treated this way is unacceptable. My kitchen is 7 years old now (this review was wayyyy overdue) but it looks 25 years old. As soon as I can afford it, I'll need to replace all the cabinet doors by the sink, trash and coffeemaker with real wood. The stuff they sold us is crap. They don't stand by their products and after they get paid they don't care or try to help. I have high blood pressure and every single time I walk into the kitchen I get angry. read more

Used Kitchen Kreations / IDS for a full kitchen remodel. Marcie and here team were extremely thorough from beginning to end with explanations, prep, assistance in style choices, procuring product. Our contractor Wil did a fabulous job with on site work and troubleshooting issues that come with renovating older homes. This job was done during the pandemic, which made it even more difficult with getting materials delivered on schedule, but there was always something happening. No going for months on end with no contact. They started on time and completed the main work within the time frame that was initially established. We still open the door to our now open concept living room / kitchen and think we're in someone else's home. Great job of bringing our idea into reality. Highly recommend, would call upon them again. read more

We engaged Marcie and Kailey to design our kitchen remodel for our Lakewood home. From the beginning, we wanted to work with a local resource who was familiar with the homes and construction in the area. The process started with a visit to our home so they could see our existing space. They listened to some of our initial ideas and we explained that we wanted the design to maximize the storage space and appeal to a future buyer. Based on our budget, we selected Aspect cabinets and Cambria quartz countertops. After a few days, they provided some some rough illustrations of options for the space. After we chose our layout, we received some 3D renderings. Based on these initial renderings, we made some minor updates (counter-depth fridge, farmhouse sink, etc.). They helped us pick our cabinet colors, tile, backsplash, and other design details. They also gave us a checklist of other things we would need to do to complete our remodel (select cabinet hardware, sink, faucet, appliances, etc.). After finalizing the plans, they placed the order for the cabinets and countertop. I think it definitely helped that Marcie had previous experience working with our general contractor - MAADD Construction (see separate review). The remodel required major construction (wall removal, relocation of plumbing and electric, etc.) and their communication throughout the project helped minimize delays and downtime. The cabinets and countertops were delivered on time and the installation quality was excellent. As you can see, the final result was quite similar to the 3D rendering. Marcie and Kailey were also very responsive to our email questions throughout the project. Overall, we were very pleased with our experience working with Marcie and Kailey. In terms of price, they are probably more expensive than other vendors, but they never tried to upsell us or stick us with surprise fees and costs later in the project. We paid the amount agreed to in the contract and more importantly, we didn't have to incur any additional costs after the project to fix any low quality materials or installation. Thanks in part to Kitchen Kreations, we have a beautiful new, bigger, brighter, and more functional kitchen that was built on time and within our budget. read more

I was referred by contractor to Chris with Kitchen Kreations / IDS for my kitchen and bathroom cabinets. Upon meeting with Chris Jenkins and his assistant Annie I was presented with a lot of standard shaker cabinets but I told Chris I wanted something different. Chris then presented Aspect line that captured my attention with their unique color. I knew I wanted a soft color and hoped to stay away from paint cabinets. I immediately fell in love. The color is beautiful and makes my kitchen pop. As with most remodeling or renovations projects there were obstacles that presented themselves but Chris showed professionalism and worked extremely hard to make sure I was satisfied. His installer was great and extremely helpful from the time he arrive to the last item installed. I would definitely recommend Kitchen Kreation and thank them for helping me complete my vision of a beautiful kitchen. I only purchased my cabinets and didn't utilize there full design services but for my need the customer service definitely left a positive impression. read more

What a GREAT experience! We did a kitchen and dining room remodel, and from helping us design it to seeing the job to completion, IDS did a wonderful job. Sure there were issues along the way, but Chris resolved them quickly and didn't make us feel like jerks for being nit-picky! He's the BEST! And let's not forget to mention Fernando - the master builder and craftsman! He did an AMAZING job blending the new drywall with our existing lath and plaster - he evening figured out how to continue the coved ceiling! It looks MARVELOUS. What a great team - I would gladly work with them again on any future projects we have, and would highly recommend them! read more

Handy and helpful. They gave a quote and are very knowledgeable and experienced. They measured all cabinets and gave a comprehensive quote and then knew a ton about different options as well as timelines and what to expect. read more

When I replaced my condo kitchen and bath vanity I used Dynamic CTS. They did a very good job and worked with our budget. Marcie was super helpful in us picking out the cabinets and coordinating granite. She has a good eye for design and space. I am currently having her remodel my bathrooms in my new house. My husband and I knew what we liked but didn't know how to implement it in our bathrooms. When we had decided to remodel we headed straight to Lowe's to see what selection of tile we had. I know there are other places but we just wanted to get an idea. We were completely overwhelmed with what would look good and what would fit in our budget. We showed Marcie a few ideas and then she suggested tubs and tiles that would work. Saved us a lot of time and headaches! I expect the same great quality job as she did before. read more

Good work Chris and the whole crew. You did a great job on my remodel. I am impresssed with the excellend customer service (ask for Chris) who worked with designing the kitchen on the computer so that I could see what the end product would look like. We went through all the details and also provided good advise on design details. He was also very helpful in picking all the materials. Once designed, they delivered what they promised on time. Every request for fixes or changes (minor stuff) was welcome without question. The crew is professional especially the granite guys. All around a 5 star experience...I am also proud of having supported a local business! ...check out the pics (the ones that were uploaded bu Fabrizio Z.)...fab read more

IDS did an amazing job on our kitchen! We had a kitchen that had been remodeled about 15 years ago for which we wanted to add some cabinets. IDS did a wonderful job crafting cabinets that looked exactly like the ones from 15 years ago, helping us come up with a design solution that more than doubled our storage space and gave the kitchen a complete feel. A joy to work with from beginning to end, and a real attention to detail--every knob and tile in perfect place. Can't recommend highly enough! read more

Had researched several contractors from Orange County and L.A., but in the end decided to visit the Kitchen Kreations showroom in Bixby Knolls (a 10 minute drive). The price was good, so we had new countertops and tile floor installed through Kitchen Kreations. Thank you Kitchen Kreations !! read more

We just completed a full kitchen renovation with Kitchen Kreations. We updated an original 1950s kitchen, to the kitchen of our dreams! We knocked down a wall, and completely gutted the existing kitchen. I spent a lot of time researching and felt that reviews from past customers were the most important , and after reading great reviews on Yelp, Kitchen Kreations was our pick. Marcie was our designer who helped us manage the space layout and helped us make many design decisions that we were clueless about. She also acted like the project manager, and helped us communicate with the other workers on our job. She was always just an email or call away to answer any question we had. Wil was our contractor, and he was also great! He traveled a good distance to work with us, since Marcie thought he would be a great fit for my husband and I, and boy was she right! His laid back attitude and flexible working habits made it such an easy process. Wil and his guys did a great job, and were a pleasure to work with. Marcie recommend her custom cabinet guy named Victor, and at first I didn't know what to expect because I hadn't seen much of his work, but WOW! I think the best decision we made during this whole process was going with Victor for the cabinets. Victor and his son, worked together to make our BEAUTIFUL cabinets. They came to our house 3 different times, and spent the whole day making sure everything was perfect! They made so many custom trim and edge pieces that really just went above and beyond our expectations. If it fits in your budget, have Victor make your cabinets!! Our timeline was about 8 weeks, and they finished the project in 7 weeks, which was great for us! And stayed very close to our budget. I know how kitchen remodels can go crazy with length of time and money, but Kitchen Kreations stayed on time, and were very accommodating when sticking to our budget. We would highly recommend Kitchen Kreations for your kitchen remodel!! read more

Chris Jenkins from Kitchen Kreations took our nightmare of a Kitchen and 2 bathrooms and transformed them into amazing and functional spaces. They were easy to work with, solved problems quickly and efficiently. I highly recommend this group of designers. read more

Unfortunately, I can't comment on the quality of the work Dynamic CTS provides. My review is based only on their terrible customer service. I called Dynamic CTS in late September requesting an estimate for some cabinet work in my kitchen. I was impressed by the 2 positive Yelp reviews and liked the fact that I would be supporting a neighborhood business. About a week after my call, Chris came by on 9-28 to see our job. My husband and I thought he was professional and had a pleasant demeanor. We never heard from Chris or anyone from CTS after that. No call, no email, no mailed estimate, nothing. I called twice myself letting them know we'd never received our estimate and we were still interested in having our project done. It's 11-7 and I think it's fair to say they are not interested in our business. I don't know how a company can stay afloat when they treat potentially paying customers like this. I have had extensive work done to my home and customer service means a lot to me. Theirs stinks. I guess it's back to the drawing board for me. read more

I've never heard of a company that won't come out to your home and give you a "free" estimate for any kind of construction work - well, until today, that is! This place charges $150.00 just to come to your house to give you an estimate. They may do great work but, ahhh, nope, sorry, no way!! read more

I just said goodbye to Polo, who did the work in my condo to redo the bathroom, and I can't even express how happy I am. Chris is amazing! Trustworthy, calm, responsible -- he made what had been an awful experience with another contractor into a great experience. Polo came 9-5 every day (until there was a machine snafu). Chris told me it would take 2 weeks, and it actually took exactly 10 days. The work was fantastic, completely professional and beautifully done. Plus, I'm a nervous client, and both Polo and Chris were quick to respond to questions. I wish I had had them do my kitchen. I highly, highly recommend them in a world of really unscrupulous contractors. read more

This is embarrassing but the review below was mistakenly posted on the Tile Zone site because it was on Atlantic too and I forgot Kitchen Kreations name when the other came up on my search for tile (also wrong term) and when I wanted to post a review here. So here it is: We stumbled in because we were near and Yelp showed it. What luck! Chris Jenkins, who helped us was so measured and efficient in ultimately helping us choose our countertop that we made a right choice. The execution of the installation was likewise well organized and thorough. Doing without the kitchen was expected but the work was all done as scheduled with no "Oh, I forgot" delays. When it was done it was perfect. We learned that a neighbor in our condo had used them, reporting similar experience to ours. I definitely would recommend them to others. Aaaaahh! That's better. read more

I used Kitchen Kreations in October 2016 to install my kitchen cabinets, backsplash, and countertops. I am absolutely pleased with the work Chris' workers did.

We met with Kitchen Kreations to get a qoute to re-do our kitchen - Our kitchen was a mix of original 1947, and cheap 1980. Marcie came to our house, and worked with my wife (who had a vision for the new kitchen). Marcie understood our vision, and worked with us to keep it as close to our budget as possible. We had a realistic, but tight budget. Of all the contractors we met with - Marcie was the only one to actually try to meet our budget. Once we decided to use Kitchen Kreations, we met with Marcie in the showroom to pick out cabinets and counter tops - It was fun to see all the options, and Marcie gave us suggestions to keep pricing down, while still maintaining quality - She also had good insight into what would look good and what may not look so good. We decided on our cabinets - and Marcie provided a detailed project timeline and stuck to it - the only delays were due to requests that we made last min (which Marcie handled with grace!) Kitchen Creations finished our kitchen today - It is AMAZING. We did new cabinets, new floors, new counters, new lights, and a new dishwasher. It was so much fun to see it all come together. If I had another kitchen that needed a remodel - I would choose Kitchen Kreations to do the work in a heart beat. Marcie and her team were great! Thank you Kitchen Kreations! read more

We needed a kitchen remodel in a mid century modern style house and were having problems finding the right contractor. We went to Kitchen Kreations and Chris helped us. He really understood our aesthetic and offered great design solutions for a challenging space. The workers did a great job installing and worked with us in getting the right contractor for the job. The work was great and we have since hired them to work on our bathroom design / remodel. Highly recommend them. read more

Interior Design Solutions - New kitchen with awesome countertops! - Kitchen & Bath Near Me - Long Beach, California

I had my extremely small, mid century kitchen completely gutted and remodeled. Marcie and her staff did a great job. Very creative, good at listening, and stayed in budget, ALWAYS. The firm used to purchase appliances was staffed with sales people that are expert in that field. I'm in love with the new kitchen, where the design provided incredible storage, a much improved footprint, as well as being very beautiful. It changed the feel of the whole house. Some of these commenters don't seem to understand the difference between hiring a design and construction firm, and hiring a tradesman to simply do the work. This is a design firm, not a place to find a handyman. Good job, Marcie and crew. read more

Kitchen Kreations provided the planning, design, and installation of our kitchen cabinets and counter tops. Marcie was very easy to work with. She is a true professional and provides quality customer service. Her showroom provides you with a wide variety of options; however, Marcie makes the selection process very easy. My wife and I are very pleased with our new kitchen and look forward to working with Kitchen Kreations in the future! read more

We considered several different companies to provide cabinets and countertops for a complete remodel of our oceanfront condo. Kitchen Kreations had a great selection, and was one of the few sources for high quality, reasonably priced high gloss modern Eurostyle cabinets. Chris was very easy to work with and my general contractor was favorably impressed. Kitchen Kreations installed our kitchen, bar, and master bath cabinets and high-end countertops in the kitchen and master bath. Pricing was quite a bit less than others we considered, but the best part was the service after the sale. My husband and I are very picky and we chose some very nice/expensive products, so we wanted everything to be PERFECT. Chris made sure that every issue we had was taken care of to our satisfaction, even when it took multiple repeat visits to get one issue resolved. I would definitely use Chris and Kitchen Kreations again and would highly recommend them for anyone who wants selection, service, and value. 5 stars!! read more

We have done business with Marcie and Dynamic Cabinets for several projects. This is a one stop shop for all remodeling needs. From the new tile in the kitchen, painting the exterior of the house, to a larger project of a home office. We were completly satisfied and recommend to anyone. The service is the best in the industry and the cost is lower than the local home improvement mega store. read more

A burst pipe the weekend before Thanksgiving started us on a roller coaster of dealing with inept people who promised one thing, but couldn't deliver. Based on the reviews of my fellow yelpers, I contacted Kitchen Kreations to give an estimate for cabinets and counters, after initially contacting ___ Brothers Construction in San Pedro, which also received very high marks. While they were personable, their bid was twice as much as KK, and I couldn't get them to return my call for two weeks! But this review is how amazing KK is... Chris is a pleasure to deal with - he listened to my concerns, was always available when questions arose, came out several times to ensure that work was progressing, and that we were happy. Any issues that came up during the process were handled immediately! We had several issues with BofA delaying the release of insurance funds, which caused us to lose out on our initial choice for counter tops, but we're happy with the second choice that Chris offered us. We had other contractors install flooring and wall tile. Between them flaking out and our bank being complete a-holes at times, KK was the only one that we could count on to keep us on an even keel. Customer service seems to be an oxymoron these days, as most companies either don't give it, or don't care. I strongly recommend that you take a second & third look at Kitchen Kreations for your remodeling needs. You won't be disappointed! Also like the fact that The Tile Zone is next door. George (Tile Zone) and Thor (KK) helped us match wall tiles that look amazing with our counters & cabinets. We're thrilled with the outcome! read more

We were looking to update our kitchen with new quartz countertops and found Kitchen Kreations on Yelp. We wanted to use a local company in Long Beach and are very happy with our experience. Chris Jenkins helped us pick the quartz and all the subs they had on the project were excellent. We had to wait 2 weeks for install from demo day due to them being so busy, but worth the wait! Our old cabinets look like new with our new quartz tops! Would highly recommend KK. read more

You know what they the third time you to do anything it usually works like a charm. Well this is my third time remodeling my kitchen and I have to say I should have did better research like my husband did this time. He found kitchen Kreations on Yelp. They have a lot of great reviews from completely satisfied customers. I agree 100% Marcie and her team were wonderful very profession work. The guys that did my kitchen were also very clean they continued to clean up after themselves from beginning to end. I can't wait to finish the rest of my kitchen. I would highly recommend kitchen Kreations to friends and family, just ask to speak to Marcie. Thank Marcie and kitchen Kreations team I am completely satisfied. read more

We used Dynamic CTS to finish the renovation of our condo kitchen. We had used another company to refinish our cabinets, but still needed new counters and backsplash. Chris was very helpful when my husband and I brought our a piece of our floor tile in to their store to match up with potential counter and backsplash materials. Throughout the whole process, Chris was professional and helpful. He was completely on target with regard to the timing of the project as well as the price. I heartily recommend this company. read more

I was looking for a company that can take my vision and sample photos of a modern expensive kitchen and create an affordable modern kitchen for one of our houses. But all they keep telling me is that modern kitchen is very expensive and will cost me over $100,000. This was after meeting them at my home for only 5 minutes and showed only a couple of pictures. Note that the kitchen is small and only 180sf. I also told them we don't want high-end lacquer cabinets and we just want maple cabinets with pocket doors and quartz countertop. I even suggested that they can incorporate some prefab or semi-custom cabinets to bring the cost down. But they still kept insisting that it's going to be very expensive since it's all custom. It felt like they think that we can't afford an expensive kitchen and kept discouraging us. I've never met a company that was so discouraging, and they didn't even make any suggestions to make the project affordable. I think they just didn't want the job when I mentioned that this project involves knocking a couple of walls to have an open concept kitchen will require structural engineering, permitting and installing a 25-ft steel beam to support the second story. They should have just said so instead of making us feel like we can't afford it and that a modern kitchen is out of our reach. Sooo disappointed. read more

We did a complete kitchen remodel in Bixby Knolls earlier this year, down to the studs, and it turned out gorgeous and significantly added to the value of our house. Chris was great, he helped us through design and materials selection and recommended cost effective alternatives. He stayed on time and on budget. The workers were great and did a very professional job. I highly recommend using Chris and Kitchen Kreations for any kitchen project. read more

I can't say enough good things about Chris and his crew at Kitchen Kreations! I hired them to remodel the kitchen in my condo and couldn't be happier. I had never been through a remodel project before and was a little apprehensive going into it, but Chris made the entire process seamless. During the design stage, he was very helpful in guiding me through all the options (without ANY pressure to upsell anything). I'm in a high-rise condo complex with strict HOA requirements for this type of work and Chris really went out of his way to ensure we met all requirements. The project was completed on time and on budget! Chris was very responsive to a few minor issues that came up during the project and quickly provided solutions for everything. Chris is genuinely a sincere, nice guy and great to work with. The same goes with everyone on his team.. Polo is great! I would highly recommend Kitchen Kreations! read more

We recently used this company to replace our kitchen countertops, sink, and cooktop. I like the fact that they are local to Long Beach and have a show room. Chris was a pleasure to work with - very calm, professional, friendly. He will offer his opinion but is not pushy. Their price was competitive, and everything went according to plan, and was done neatly. read more

We recently replaced countertops, backsplash tile, lighting, sink and faucet in our kitchen. We took our time and got many estimates for this job, KK being one of the last. Between the reviews we read, meeting with their man Chris and just a strong gut feeling we chose KK. The job was done quickly, efficiently, professionally - all in about 5 days. They even threw in a new plug for free! Total pros, starting with Chris and all his guys - tile, electric and plumbing. Once we get our act together to do our bathrooms, we will definitely go with KK. Thanks Chris! read more
