Kitchen Designers in Santa Barbara County, CA

“Ktichen renovation. First experience with remodeling. The Hahka team were professional and supportive. Designer Linda Billings was extremely accessible and helpful. Her suggestion to incorporate an island with the character of furniture is the statement piece that adds the "wow" factor to our kitchen. General contractor Randy Hahka very clearly has a personal interest in quality work. He strongly lobbied for the replacement of louvered pantry and laundry doors with doors that more closely matched the new cabinetry-although more costly, this was definitely the right decision from a design perspective. The construction team were skillful, friendly, honest and easy to work with. We did have a few whoopsies, but I understand this is par for the course with renovation projects and at the end, nothing was left unresolved. The team very clearly made great efforts to provide customer satisfaction. Job was not completed on time, mainly due to issues with pantry/laundry doors. Very happy with the results of our project.”

“We had Nanci Paige Designs do three projects for us. The first was a complete re-modeling of one of our aesthetic medical practices. She transformed a dungy, cluttered mess into a sleek, modern and attractive facility that continues to produce the desired results for the staff and, even more importantly, for the patients. The goal for the re-model was to create a very upscale office and, at the same time, help the patients relax and know they're in very good hands. The relaxing part is seen when every new patient forgets about their fears and begins to share what they'd like to accomplish with their appearance. The upscale goal was realized when a long time patient walked into the new office and said, "I guess you're going to be raising your prices with the way this place looks!" We then had her to an interior design job with a our mid-century modern home in Palm Springs. She transformed that house into a modern and warm home with vibrant colors and sleek furnishings all balanced with well placed natural wood accent pieces. She accomplished both of our goals of having an updated version of mid-century modern furnishings to complete the home and create a cool and relaxing environment. Accomplishing just one of the goals would have been difficult to do, achieving both goals achieved the next-to-impossible task. Finally we had her design the remodeling of our spa and salon business interiors interior in Palm Springs. Again, the magic happened the space was transformed in color and furnishings that improved the presentation for clients and supported price increases for the services. Two more medical practices are going on the drawing boards and a new home design project is going into her capable and talented hands. She always takes the project way past our imagination and puts it where it really should have been from the beginning.”

“This is our third time using Castle Construction to make upgrades to our condo; we've had our kitchen remodeled and two bathrooms upgraded using Castle Construction. Jason Tapia is very knowledgeable in all aspects of the project and his reliability and honesty make doing business with his company a real pleasure. The subcontractors working for him are friendly, trustworthy individuals, so you don't have to worry about them working in your home. Castle Construction provides high quality work at a reasonable price. Jason takes every effort to clearly explain the process and procedures and vets out all possible options so you can make informed decisions. He's also flexible with schedule changes, and although he can get quite booked, he's well worth the wait. I highly recommend him to anyone who's looking for an honest, reliable contractor who knows what they're doing and will deliver on his promises.”

“I have worked with Elizabeth on multiple projects and have always been thrilled with her design sense, her expert knowledge and her work ethic. I refer her to all my friends and clients. She is a true professional and a pleasure to work with!”

“My experience with Owen Tile & Marble has been exceptional! He is very creative, hard working and honest. He designed both our bathrooms, kitchen and our Goleta Sushi House restaurant. We are so very happy with his quality of work, he is very knowledgeable, highly experienced and attention to details. We highly recommend him without reservation.”

“I hired Kisha to help me with a year-long major house remodel, and she's been fantastic! She not only has a great eye for design, but she's also sensitive to cost constraints, and she's been an essential sounding-board for me on literally every aspect of the project. I would have been lost without her, and I would recommend her to anyone in a heartbeat!”

“Emily is incredible. She is organized, talented, and a great communicator. She is able to manage big and small projects and stay within budget. She is able to vision a project from start to finish and then deliver amazing results. We have hired her for many projects and they have always exceeded expectations.”

“ICabinetry has been great to work with on all of the jobs I have ordered through him. The product was high in quality and all the necessary toekick, scribe and filler was included. The shipments have all arrived when needed and price was great! They really know their business and are a huge help!”

“I was all set with cabinets that I had chosen from another source when I came to Hayward's to look at tile samples and looked at her sample cabinets on display. It became very evident to me that Katie has the knowledge to find me cabinets and help me design a kitchen that I really loved, not just a functional kitchen. Katie was very knowledgeable about kitchen design and willing to help me through the process. She opened my eyes to possibilities for making my small kitchen unique. Katie followed through and communicated with me in all aspects of the process and gave me great suggestions for color and materials in choosing my countertops and backsplash as well. I found her resources and contractors that she works with to be just as top notch as well.”

“Elite Construction in Santa Barbara came in and fixed poor work from another subcontractor. They had to correct cabinet work in my kitchen that was not done properly (according to plans). Jerry, (the owner) gave me an hourly rate to fix the work and Roberto (site supervisor) worked with Cesar and did excellent work bringing the kitchen into specification. The difference between the two contractors was day and night. Roberto had excellent suggestions that brought my expectations/ideas to life. They listened (to me) and then performed the work flawlessly and did not mind stopping to discuss any issues. The end result . . . outstanding. I got exactly what I wanted the way I wanted. I would not hesitate to use them again. In fact, I plan on using them again to remodel my bathrooms. Look at the before and after pictures and you can see their outstanding work, what you can’t see are the hundreds of corrections they had to do to bring the kitchen into specification.”
