Kitchen and Bath Remodeling in a Difficult Economy

Bathroom Remodeling Kitchen Remodeling Nov 17

We are seeing many clients that are interested in accomplishing a remodeling project, but they are obviously concerned about the economy, the job market and their ability to take on a “costly” project at this time. We have answers for those people interested in getting something done NOW.

1. Prices are just not going down. Appliance manufacturers have already announced their increases; cabinet manufacturers normally announce their increases in January and February of each year and we have already been alerted that they are coming. If you are serious about moving forward in the next 120 days – make your decision NOW – you will save money.

2. Consider replacing just your appliances, countertops and hardware (handles), but try and decide soon – since again, most of the appliance manufacturers have already announced their price increases effective at the end of this year. Come the end of this year, consumers will see about an across the board 12% increase on just about every appliance.

3. Kurtis has developed many programs to help homeowners save on their budget.• Do-It-Yourself: We will provide the design assistance and the materials. You do the installation.• Contract-It-Yourself: We will provide the design assistance and the materials. Hire your own installers.• Cabinet Only Installation: We will provide the design assistance, the materials, and the basic cabinet installation. You can provide whatever installation services you feel you are qualified to perform on your own or through someone you hire.• Complete Installation programs: We’ll provide all the materials - from cabinetry and countertops to plumbing and electrical – even the appliances – and we will manage the entire job through final installation. Think about it – Kurtis has the clout with the various workers to get your project done quickly and cost effectively. If you try acting on your own, you will not get the response time or have the financial impact on a tradesman like we do! And that means we can keep your costs lower than parceling out parts of the job to others. Come in and learn about these and many other ways to save money on your remodeling project. So if you are thinking about improving your kitchen or bath, come in and talk to an expert at Kurtis. We can help you save money and complete that project in the fastest amount of time and with the least amount of stress.

From start to finish Kurtis was a great company to work with. From the initial contact and design concept with Gregory Holster to the cabinet drop off team, the install team led by project manager Jeff Tuomi and the countertop company, the project was on time and all work was performed beyond expectations. This was greatly appreciated seeing as it was completed on December 23. All the people involved were professional and did an excellent job.

Shanna was our project consultant. Picking out cabinets along with counters can be somewhat overwhelming but her knowledge & experience helped us make the right decisions. Dylan & Juwan unloaded truck & Dylan check off ship ticket to make sure all boxes were accounted for. Courteous & pleasant to talk to…nice job of stacking everything neatly in our garage. We couldn't be more pleased with the service & so happy with our kitchen

We recently worked with Lauren on cabinetry for a master bathroom renovation. She was great to work on the design and selections. Lauren was efficient and responsive from cabinet selection through ordering. Our overall installation was smooth. We had some unforeseen circumstances impacting our ability to accept delivery of our cabinets on the initial agreed upon date. Kurtis was very accommodating in rescheduling delivery given our project challenges. We couldn't be happier with our cabinets for this project.

We had complete renovations to our kitchen and main bathroom. From start to finish, the design with Shanna was exactly what we asked for and Jeff stayed on top of the renovations, communicating each step of the way. Every worker was professional and the final product is elegant and functional. We were very happy with Kurtis and would choose Shanna and Jeff again.

We love our new kitchen! Kurtis Kitchen & Bath did an outstanding job, and Adrian at the Clarkston location was exceptional to work with—creative, patient, and really listened to what we wanted. The project was well-organized, and we went from demo to a fully functioning kitchen in just 30 days. Highly recommend!
