We had such a great experience working with Jenn at BK&B for our new build! We're first time home buyers and the process can be confusing and overwhelming but she made it simple and even FUN! You can tell she puts a lot of thought and care into her designs and is very knowledgeable at what she does. We would highly recommend her and the team!

Building our "forever" retirement home in a pandemic with a tight budget has been challenging but working with Kesa Bohnhoff at Better Kitchens & Baths has been nothing but a pleasure. She responded to every inquiry by email and phone call promptly, and her calm, cheerful, professional demeanor created a pleasurable working relationship that eased the stress of us needing to make our builder's timelines without blowing our budget but personalizing our production house into a more custom home. Kesa helped us make design adjustments in our kitchen cabinetry, sink and countertop selection that transformed the space while confirming to our budget constraints.

She found the perfect granite for us, that we purchased the next day at a price that we could afford. I can't say enough good things about Kesa Bohnhoff and Better Kitchens & Baths. Highly Recommend!

I wish I could provide a picture but considering I received NO SERVICE from them there is not one to provide. I made an appointment, worked with Mark and explained I was eager to completed my kitchen with custom cabinetry. I could tell he was apprehensive (not sure if he was expecting a black woman or not). I expressed my ideas and he wrote everything and told me he would get back to with me by way of email and or phone call. I waited a week, after not receiving anything I called; Mark informed me it wont be until Wednesday and two weeks later NOTHING.

Very detailed in explains about cabinets. Care about customer satisfaction. Have been great to work with. Warranty team is very helpful. We had a couple soft close hinges that needed replaced. They came out to fix them and was more concerned about the broken hinges that were installed. Very satisfied customer.

If you want a professional, modern, beautiful kitchen or bathroom you must go to Better Kitchens and baths. Dan is absolutely a joy to work with and during our major renovation he has been an invaluable resource. He has coordinated every aspect of our kitchen remodel down to the last detail. We couldn't be happier with the process and our amazing gorgeous new kitchen. All praises to Dan with Better Kitchens and baths.

These folks were great. All the staff that we came in contact with were pleasant and extremely helpful. Kenyon, our designer was available and happy to make the trip to our home over and over. He helped us to get through problems that we hadn't seen when visually imagining our space.
