Kitchen Designers in Parole, MD

“Joni Zimmerman designed our kitchen as part of a recent whole house renovation. My husband and I had purchased a 20 year old home that was in need of an update, and our architect, Cathy Purple Cherry, recommended Joni to design our kitchen. We are so thrilled that we followed her recommendation. At the first meeting, Joni wanted to learn who we were and how we would live in the space. Throughout the process, Joni considered functionality, style, and budget, and she listened to us closely. I am no decorator. I know what I like when I see it, but getting there can be a challenge for me. Joni knew exactly how to guide me when I was stumped. The end result is a kitchen that we absolutely love and that is completely us. I probably spend more time there than anywhere else in the house. Joni is a professional, a gifted designer, an exceptional listener (thus a kitchen that is our style), and we highly recommend her to anyone in search of a kitchen or bath designer.”

As with any projects there are always some little details here and there but that comes with the process and you need to be patient. Special shout out to our fabulous designer Dorelys Herrera, our contractor for the job Abat Construction and all the great workers , ceramic tile, plumber, granite installer electricians and carpenters . Im so happy with our new kitchen thank you”

“We had a new roof put on our former home (2007) and Integrity not only explained their business and the options for shingles with respect, but did an excellent job doing the work. Their employees were extremely polite and cleaned up very well. When we bought our current home (2009), we asked them to do an inspection on its roof, and they told us honestly it was in fine shape and didn't need work. Because of their honesty, we recommended them to neighbors on both sides who have also hired them. Additionally, we asked them to do our new windows in our current home right after we moved in. Again, they were extremely professional, clean, and honest.”

“Very professional, excellent customer service, patient and knowledgeable in his expertise. Delivery was as promised and there were no hidden costs. It was great during business with this company and I would highly recommend this company if you're looking for a custom and detailed finished product. I am completely satisfied.”

“The team at AKA listened to our project goals, made fantastic suggestions for features we had not thought of, and ultimately designed a kitchen for us that we love so much (both looks and functionality) that we hired them to do second one!!”

“I suffered a catastrophic loss when a pipe in a 2nd floor bathroom in my house burst during a cold freeze. Two floor were ruined (luckily water does not run uphill, so the 3rd floor was spared). I hired James L. Graves Construction on the recommendation of neighbors...the husband and wife were both architects and had worked with the firm and thought highly of Mr. Graves and his company. Mr. Graves was my savior, guide and tutor during the multi-year undertaking to rebuild my 3 bedroom/2-1 bathroom home that won national awards when originally constructed in the late 1970's. I knew nothing about construction (I do now), but with him by my side I learned what to look for, ask for and avoid. He and his employees and subcontractors walked me through the innumerable problems and decisions I had to make, but never rushed me and provided me all the pros and cons and cost options so that I could feel comfortable with the outcomes. When I explained I never wanted to deal with a ruptured pipe or be cold in the house again, Mr. Graves did research into foaming the entire house...the cost was high but the results have been amazing. When the city insisted that we had to install a fire suppression system (the city council had just passed an ordinance), Mr. Graves worked with the city for a year to figure out what they wanted and would approve (mine was the first house subject to the ordinance and the fire department apparently used us a learning opportunity, and, thankfully, Mr. Graves dealt with the frustration far better than I ever did). Mr. Graves went with me to see city officials when I had questions about new city regulations impacting the restoration. He went with me to the architectural firm I hired to prepare plans for the restoration. He was an active participant in these meetings, raising issues I hadn't thought to ask and being there for me. We became a true team as we tackled the project of rebuilding my home. I unintentionally created a few problems, but Mr. Graves never noticed. When I bought a refrigerator that was too deep for the kitchen, I suggested a solution...a bump-out in the exterior wall into which the refrigerator could be recessed...and Mr. Graves made it happen. When I bought the wrong exterior fixtures for the showers...the wouldn't work with the plumbing that had been put in...I received an education on plumbing (!) and then understood what I needed to buy, returned the wrong products and got the right ones. Easy!! When the powder room proved too small for a regular sink cabinet, Mr. Graves' on-site project manager (a fabulous person who I adopted him as a honorary member of my family!) built a custom cabinet that fit the space perfectly. When I came out one tile short for a backsplash for a bar area, Mr. Graves picked up the phone and asked and got from his supplier for that single tile. His associates love working with him and give him their full and immediate attention. Mr. Graves gave me that same quality attention, whether I called, texted or sent an email. He was always there. Always. We set and adhered to a budget (I paid for some things that I wanted but had not included in the budget) and the finished house is what I envisioned when we began this effort. Staying within the footprint, it now is a 21st century modern structure...with spa-like bathrooms and a gorgeous kitchen...that was entirely rebuilt from the framing in. it is a new house wrapped in the old cedar bones...and it is ready to be entered into another competition. And in Mr. Graves I have found a friend, a professional mentor and, should I ever renovate another house, my next and only general contractor!”

“It was truly a pleasure to have Boss Design handle my kitchen remodel. Each member of the team was always available whenever I needed their expertise. They were also very clean and organized, cleaning after themselves every evening. None of my things were damaged during the renovations, and I am really pleased with how well things turned out.”

“Best Deal Home Improvement up-leveled the appearance of my newly purchased home. The previous owners had an amateur hour theme throughout the house so I brought Omar and his team in to create a real grown up living space. Without his professional approach, attention to detail and quality work, my family and I would still be living in an oversized playhouse. I highly recommend Best Deal Home Improvement for all your home improvement projects.”

“We used KT tile for our bathroom renovation and couldn't be happier with the results. Having been through a messy kitchen remodel with another contractor before (to some not-so-good results), I must say I was so relieved and pleased to have finally found a great company. My master bathroom needed some major updating and renovation. I received several quotes to begin my renovation process and decided to go with Kalev because he really took the time to walk me through the entire process and his expertise was exemplary. Thank you KT tiles for the beautiful bathroom! Kalev the owner is a perfectionist, pays close attention to detail, and has keen eye for details.”

“I worked with Carmen on several projects over a 2 year period. She was very professional, timely, & most important to me was her knowledge in the Interior Design field. The way she was able to put colors & materials together was just amazing. The outcome of my projects were all magazine worthy. I would definitely recommend Carmen for any remodeling project, big or small. You will not be disappointed.”
