I own the a small chain of restaurants in NYC, so I’m kinda comfortable building kitchens. However, when it came time to remodel my own kitchen, I found the task daunting and stressful.
My wife and I interviewed and got quotes from many highly recommended contractors from all over Essex county. With estimated costs differeing by as much as 25 thousand, I found in most cases I was left confused and unclear as to what we’d be getting.
After putting the project on hold for a year, we followed up on a friends recommendation and called MBA Cabinetry Studio. They came to our house, took measurements and asked us to check out their showroom.
I was amazed with what happened next. Lou, the owner walked me through the process step by step. He has a computer program that lets you build your kitchen right on the spot. Example, I like this style cabinet and that kind of sink. He enters some info and they appear on the screen in 3D. After choosing all materials and colors I was able to see exactly what I was getting and exactly what it would cost. Everything entered into the program has a predetermined price so I was able to pick a choose what I wanted to comfortably stay within my budget.
Then came the build out. I was pretty prepared to have my house turned into a disaster area for most of the summer. It never happened. Nick, Lou’s son, head artchitect, project manager and all around awesome guy, managed the job to perfection.
As I said before, I own restaurants, I’ve built many a kitchen, nothing is ever close to perfection and most of the time it’s a real sh#% show. These guys did an amazing job, I wish they built restaurants. Organization A+, craftsmenship A+, the subcontractors and tradesmen all A+. I can’t say enough good things.
The kitchen is just about finished. I love it. Of course they made remodeling so ease that my wife and I asked them to do a hundred other little renovations, so now I feel bad because they’ll never escape.
If you’ve taken the time to read this entire review you’ll know I’m sensear when I say, go with these guys, you’ll be happy with your choice.
Thanks again Nick and Lou
One happy customer
