Description of Work: A new wet bar in the dining room.

Description of Work: We engaged Kirkplan to replace our small 8x10 kitchen with all-wood cabinets, quartz counter tops and modern tile back splash. When Todd gave us the bid, he included all the elements we wanted and gave us a preliminary layout. And an estimate that the time would be 3 weeks. Measurements were verified by a different team member. An 'existing condition' survey was not completed, although a blank one was in our folder. | |In the design, some of the cabinets moved by an inch or two, and some of the sizes were changed by an inch or two. A wide sink cabinet was changed to a narrower one with a tray cabinet beside it. | |What we did NOT realize, and what the survey measure guy did NOT realize and what our cabinet installer did NOT realize is that the walls around the refrigerator (which did not move, but was replaced by a larger one) were not square nor were they plumb. And that gaps in the existing tile floor when the old cabinets were removed would potentially cause problems for the new refrigerator which could not be placed over the gaps. The new cabinets were installed such that the new refrigerator did not fit in the space, and its side was slightly creased when *someone* (not us, and everyone on the job said 'not us either') pushed the fridge into a spot which was too small for it. | |The opening size was eventually adjusted by removing the light rail trim return and the existing chair rail beside and behind the refrigerator. The crease on the side is still there if you look for it. All of which is only part of our basis for a "B" rating. | |Our main issue: We thought we would have a single consistent Kirkplan contact person to deal with regarding scheduling, questions, and progress reports on the job -- the whole job. That was not the case. We would receive calls variously from the 'scheduler' or from the cabinet installer or from the counter top people or the tile guy or the electrician ... We made arrangements with our own handyman to have the tile floors patched under the stove and refrigerator after the cabinets were installed. We could have had that done after demo but didn't know gaps would occur in the tile floor and be an issue based on the new layout. And we were frustrated by receiving callbacks from the cabinet installer, even after his work was complete, when we called the office to speak to --- well, I guess he was the scheduler. We could not find the person who kept track of our total project. | |The quality of the cabinets is excellent and they do look terrific. And we love love the quartz counter tops. And the tile back splash looks great. | |For those reasons I would use Kirkplan again, my husband not so much -- since we could not figure out who to speak to and how to find out what was going on when. During the course of the project, we extended our stay in FL from 4 weeks to 6, then finally went back north. | |Final payment happened in early November, after I returned to FL to do a final inspection. Punch list items (other than mentioned above) were dealt with very expeditiously. | |So, fellow Angie's List-ers, be prepared to keep track of your project like you are the GC based on our experience. We ended up with a great quality kitchen but the process seemed unnecessarily frustrating. Maybe our job was too small, and maybe Kirkplan has too much success selling and is too busy.

Description of Work: This was in 2003. |I was without a kitchen for over 4 months because of delays and mistakes. |Two incidents where the threads of cabinet handles were stripped and they just glued the handles to the screws. I found this out several months later. |I ordered a wood panel for the front of the dishwasher. They substituted a laminate panel without telling me. |The granite I order was repeatedly cracked during installation. After 3 attempts to install a granite counter top, I gave in an accepted a cracked counter top. |

Description of Work: Our sales rep Brian Higgins was fantastic. We spent close to 9 months planning and researching before we signed the contract and he was very patient and made all the adjustments and upgrades we asked for as part of the final plan. All the contractors involved were responsive and professional and we love the way our kitchen turned out it was completed the day before Thanksgiving so we were able to use it on the big day! I would use them again for future upgrades to the laundry room, baths, etc.

Description of Work: Replace a small 10ft. kitchen cabinets. I ended up with less shelf space. These were NOT custom cabinets. They were off the shelf stock cabinets. Narrower and shorter than what they replaced. The extra space was covered by spacers to give the illusion that the cabinets were taller and longer that what they were. Was promised soft-close drawers but were not included. The worst was the backsplash. The tiles I chose were tumbled tiles. What I got were glazed tiles! And, these were installed very uneven-some are higher than others. When I clean the backsplash I have cut my fingers on them. They also did not finish off the edges of the tiles and the grout is starting to come off. They told me there was nothing they could do with the tile now that they had set up and I would just have to live with it!.
