Working With Us
Getting a new kitchen should be exciting, rewarding and fun.
It can be hard work, but it should be an enjoyable process. We want you to be satisfied, of course. But we expect you will be thrilled. We love it when our clients exclaim, "Wow, this is MY kitchen!"
After all you will be getting the kitchen you always wanted, the perfect workplace for a dedicated chef, the ideal space to entertain or simply a feast for the eyes.
First, we need to get to know you. Stop by our design showroom, where we will listen to your thoughts and ideas. This is your chance to see examples of premium quality cabinets— the timeless beauty of quartersawn white oak or the deep, rich grain of cherry. We will show you numerous door styles, finishes and hardware, plus beautiful countertops, both natural and man-made. After listening to your ideas, we'll start putting our extensive industry experience to work. Together we will develop a kitchen that is unique to you.
That is important to us.
We don't duplicate projects. We don't do fads. We don't do something because this is what we did for someone else. Our clients wouldn't want that. They don't drive the same car as the neighbors, don't wear the same clothes to parties as their friends. Why should their custom kitchen be just like one designed for someone else?
Your Kitchen Collections' design is individual to fit your needs and your individual taste. We want your kitchen to be distinct, to be remarkable to you as well as to your guests, to reflect your style, and to fit into the overall design of your home.
As a starting point, we might work with you to select granite countertops, and then build on that, using our knowledge and experience as a guide. Many of our clients are busy professionals who don't have time to run around and do research on the best kitchen and bath products, designs and concepts. That's what we provide, the expertise of professionals.
We keep up with what is new and innovative. Each year our entire staff takes time off to attend the annual Kitchen and Bath Industry Show, to invest our time and effort to ensure we are providing the best materials and products to you, our client. We also bring in representatives of the top manufacturers to brief our staff and keep up on the latest product information.
All of this helps us guide you through the decision-making process:
- What are the best appliances for your needs?
- Do you need a commercial-grade stove?
- Dual dishwashers or perhaps refrigeration drawers?
- What is the perfect countertop surface or do you need different surfaces in different zones?
- How can we maximize your counter and cabinet space?
When we are doing your project, we can do backsplash design, your lighting layout and follow through on the entire process. This is a creative and exciting time, and also an important step because you are making an investment in your home.
We partner with skilled craftsmen to develop every aspect of your project, people who pay particular attention to special added touches. All of this ensures your project will be as individual as you are.
We will keep in constant communication with you along the way, answering all your questions and keeping you informed. "We don't just do a plan, sell the cabinets and say goodbye," says owner Jackie Balint. "We are there with you to completion."
