My wife and I are both first time remodelers. Everyone including Tommie, Dan, and Robert are all beyond fantastic. All components of the project were thoroughly explained and there are no surprises. Dan even provided a detailed list of items that I needed to purchase, and provided suggestions on where to purchase them. Robert was fantastic with our house and treated it as his own, cleaning up at the end of everyday. The pricing was great, especially considering the extremely high quality (just look at the pictures). We are extremely happy we chose Samanco for our project. We will definitely use them for all of our projects going forward.

This is the box you replaced it failed

You suck. Less than 4 years after spending $1000s with you, I have rot and your solution to a downspout solution just cost me $1500 and that's not including the damage caused to my exterior. You don't deserve anyone's business I have to go up in the attic to assess the real damage. I'm not optimistic

See all

Owner called me, we scheduled an appointment. He never showed. I can't understand what happened. He sounded very courteous.

We chose Studio41 for our bathroom renovation because of their beautiful product selection and…read morebecause we received the recommendation from our contractor. We assumed the higher cost would come with a higher level of customer service and communication, but unfortunately, that was not our experience. Prior to purchase, communication was solid. However, once payment was received and the order was placed, communication significantly declined. One major issue was that we were not informed us that our order would be split into two separate shipments with different numbers. I received one invoice with one order number. When we received notice that our order was ready for delivery, we reasonably assumed the entire order had arrived and ready to be delivered. Instead, only half of the order was delivered. Because Studio41 does not deliver items into residential units, we had to hire movers to transport large and heavy items--including a vanity, toilet, and tile--into our condo. Had we known the order arriving was not the full order, we could have planned accordingly. Instead, we incurred the cost and inconvenience of hiring movers on two separate occasions. When I contacted customer service to discuss the situation, the response was disappointing. Rather than acknowledging the communication gap, the representative was dismissive and implied that split shipments are common knowledge. As a customer, I don't believe it's unreasonable to expect this information to be proactively communicated, especially when it directly impacts delivery logistics and additional costs. We also encountered issues with Studio41's return policy. We purchased Kohler mirrors that ultimately did not work for our project due to installation requirements. Although the mirrors were brand new and still available from Kohler, the only option offered was a return with a 50% restocking fee. Given the substantial markup on many products and the overall purchase amount, we expected more flexibility and a greater focus on customer satisfaction. To be clear, the products themselves are beautiful and high quality. My dissatisfaction is entirely with the customer experience after the sale. For a company positioning itself as a premium showroom, the communication, support, and return process fell well short of expectations. Unfortunately, I would not shop at Studio41 again and would encourage others to carefully review delivery and return policies before making a purchase.

Sent her pics, she stated, "that would be $200,000. for kitchen." Without measurements, coming out like she said she was, twice. After many weeks, i again recontacted her and she said, "oh, it got cancelled, were doing a new computer reboot," or some lame ass excuse. If I hadn't even reached out again and again and again, she would never have responded. Based on this , I'm sure the service and completed production, if it ever occurred would have been a "Shitshow." Looking elsewhere. This has been going on for months, what a joke.

Our salesperson was very quick to reply - even if the correspondence was lacking in warmth - but I persevered. I wasn't looking for friendship. But that is where my satisfaction ends with Waterworks. Overall, the products are amazing. You are paying for an extremely high end product. You will love them. You will dream about them. You will spend a lot of time on Pinterest. If you can swallow the bitter pill of feeling like a second class citizen. I just didn't enjoy the experience. We were ignored on our first visit to the showroom - with no excuse, mind you... There was a blizzard going on and no one was shopping at the Merch Mart that day. It was us... and a family flipping through the blueprints for the new home, their designer, and their Waterworks salesperson. We should have know our relationship would be doomed from the beginning. We eventually fell in with our salesperson, who seemed nice and knowledgable, if not a little uninterested. We knew what we liked... we just needed someone to help us maneuver the Waterworks product line. We got super excited. We KNEW we were going to make it work! Then we got the price. Whoa. Regroup. My two star review is not a reflection of the price... We knew going in it was going to be the high end of our budget. It's about the customer service you receive when spending a lot of money. Because lets face it... we could all go to Home Depot and buy Kohler. But when you spend money at Waterworks, you expect to be treated well. Not ass-kissing. I'm talking basic respect. We are a young couple. Sure... we are only doing a kitchen and a bathroom right now, but if we had enjoyed this experience, we would have recommended Waterworks to EVERYONE. We would have been devoted Waterworks loyalists. Instead, we will take our money elsewhere. Additionally: + The website is terrible. + You have to specifically ask that the quote include all the components to make the faucets work, etc.. That seems really, really silly... But to not even ASK if we want those components included seems sneaky.

We did all of that and it was a long process but we were lucky to have this location in downtown Chicago. What I love about this location is it is right around the corner from the Merchandise Mart, so I suggest this...walk around the MM and see all of the latest designs and trends in tile and marble...get ideas and then walk over here because you will save thousands of dollars. It is amazing how you can get the same stones and tiles for more then half of the price the designers at the MM are selling them for. What scares me is that this location has been here for years and no one has even reviewed it on Yelp!!! We were dealing with the Daltile in the burbs to begin with but we ran across this location towards the end when we were finalizing all of our tile and stone orders. This saved us 2 hours in the car, toll roads and gas money. I wish I would have known that this location was downtown when I started my search. The nice thing is that they have designers here and they will pull the tile you want and then help you lay it out. I am so glad that we found this place and were able to save tons of money but still get great quality tiles for our multiple house projects going on. This location is very relaxed, so do not be turned off by it. You may have to ask someone to help you, which is nice because no sales person is jumping on you every 2 minutes to help you. They will let you walk around and get ideas and then when you are ready you ask to see an associate to help you. They also have a Keurig machine too, so do not stop at Starbucks before you walk in here.

We used Kathryn's design expertise to remodel our kitchen, first-floor full bathroom, and front porch. Working with Design Inside was money well-spent because Kathryn is talented in both technical and creative design. She measured and prepared for every contingency when creating a plan to transform our galley-style kitchen into an expanded and multi-purpose open-concept design that included kitchen, mudroom, and workspace. She was efficient in helping us make design choices to update our bathroom, and concise with material recommendations and measurements needed to replace our front porch. Kathryn and her team were respectful of our time, budget, and input. Every selection for purchase was presented as a choice, and we knew we were always guided to the best price point. Kathryn recommended when to pay for quality materials, and helped us find savings in other parts of the design to off-set the cost. We are most happy with the selections we would not have made without her involvement. We could not have completed our home remodel without Design Inside, and would happily recommend them to anyone looking for guidance on small or large projects!

We used Design Inside for our recent condo renovation, and we were pleased with our designer,…read moreAbigail. We had looked into three or four design firms and went with Design Inside because we got along well with Abigail from the initial consultation. She's friendly and had suggestions from our first meetings. Our remodeling scope was pretty basic (resurface hardwood floors, install new tiling, new lighting, new kitchen countertops/backsplash/hardware, painting, etc.) We weren't planning on taking down any walls or putting up new walls - hence "pretty basic" in our eyes! The initial few weeks involved back and forth with designs and occasional meetings with Abigail so she could get a handle on what we wanted done. Abigail was accommodating with meeting/phone times, and would often meet with us late afternoons or early evening. She created designs we had never thought of doing (enclosing in structural poles, wainscoting, etc). Abigail also was able to easily "read" my husband and I in terms of color schemes and we ended up choosing one of the first few samples of tiling and backsplash that she dropped off with us. Kudos for that! Abigail also provided us bimonthly hours summary / detail so we knew how much we were being charged for her services. She would break down the time she spent working for us by the minute and it was helpful to see where our dollars were being spent. From a "grand overall design", Abigail did a good job, but when we started getting into the details in the later phases, we did run into a few minor issues. I recommend ordering all materials / furniture / art yourself and not going thru Design Inside. With a little work on the intranet, you can find it cheaper, not to mention a lower delivery charge. We had a few material mix-ups with Design Inside - i.e. we received the wrong hardware; not enough tile or grout was ordered. Abigail's measurements for the den were incorrect so she didn't order enough tile / grout - her measurements for the wallpaper were also off, but this time we almost ordered too much. The invoice system used by Design Inside is a little confusing and you should pay very close attention and track your own expenses. It's hard to describe but trying to track all the bills and refunds with the invoices provided was difficult. Overall - I would recommend Design Inside and Abigail for your remodeling needs. I would just offer a bit of advice to double check measurements and order your own materials, but would still recommend the company. Abigail provided different designs and options that demonstrated her design skills as well as her ability to connect with us in terms of what our goal of the remodel was. In our eyes, that was key.

Overall recommend!…read more REdid my kitchen cabinets with T2. Price is very competitive, and they are able to install for you as well. CAbinets were of good quality. A couple small issues during the installation did occur. Ended up realizing that during the measurement phase, some errors did happen, and we were short a couple of cabinets, but because I ordered the stock cabinets, they were able to send over the extras needed the next day. T2 was very responsive to the issues and everything was fixed quickly, did NOT cause delay to the project time. The installation guys were expeditious but like all construction/remodeling work, little nicks will happen here or there, nothing that bothered me, but if you are very meticulous, then I recommend you stay around and supervise the installation closely. If you are not too OCD, then just know that the installation goes smoothly, the installers are experienced and will be honest about any issues that come up and offer options to bypass or fix it. They were also very good in that I later noticed some cosmetic flaws that I did want fixed, they did send out someone to fix up. I would recommend this company for people looking for a competitive pricing on quality cabinets, they are a good company who are willing to respond to feedback and in my experience, they were accommodating and good to work with.
