Erin provided excellent service in helping me choose area rugs and a stair runner for one of my clients. She is extremely knowledgeable and they have a beautiful new showroom with lots of products to choose from. My clients were very pleased with the quality of the product and the installation process.

Flooring is only one part of multiple projects that Affordable is completing for me. I selected engineered hardwoods for the first floor of my home. From the removal of existing tile and carpet, replacement of damaged sub floor, to the installation of the new floors, molding and painting, I couldn’t be happier with my decision to choose Affordable. You should feel quite comfortable working with this company. Great product, qualified installers, and my home looks absolutely beautiful.

We visisted an Affordable Kitchen booth at the Home Show this year, read about the company's great reviews on Angie's List, and contacted Affordable Kitchens via the Internet to request an appointment for an estimate. A representative called a few days later and after I explained the work we needed done and where our home was located, I was told that we would live out of their area (we live on the east-side of Indianapolis, in Marion County) and because they are located in Carmel, not only would there be a trip charge for an estimate, but also any job in this area of town could not be priced competitively, because of the great driving distance. Since the description on Angie's List states that the company services 'all areas', I found this comment somewhat 'insulting': is the east-side of town too low-class for a Carmel company? Very disspointing, since we had read so many good reviews about the company on Angie's List. Please update their service area to reflect their policy so customer's don't waste their time contacting the company.
Description of Work: Requested estimate for new countertops in our kitchen, possibly new cabinets, too. Also need new bathroom vanity and flooring in one of our bathrooms.

I would sincerely like to apologize for any misunderstanding that occurred with your member. We do serve the greater Indianapolis area. We believe in full disclosure when we speak with potential customers. The reality is that when we do work for our clients the labor time does include travel time to and from our office. This would be true if someone lived on any side of town. Your member would incur additional travel time should we do the work because of the distance from our showroom to their location. We feel it only fair to let our customers know that in advance, so they can judge who they want to work with based upon what is important to them. I can assure you this has nothing to do with where your member may live and in fact we have done work in many areas of Indianapolis. There is one thing that does require clarification, we do not charge for an estimate. Again, I would like to apologize for any misunderstanding that may have occurred.

Their estimate was for $6300. Their price was very high. They were the highest among the four estimates that I got. I had received a lot of recommendations for them. They did a kitchen for my sister and did a fabulous job with it. I did not question their work. It was just their price. I lived in an old house and I got an impression that they did not want to do it because there were several floors to take off and they were certainly not sure of what was underneath. They were very good with the punctuality and they were wonderful. They were very nice and did a good job with the estimate. I would take an estimate from them in the future as I know that they do good work.

We appreciate the great ratings from this Angie’s list member. We also appreciate the feedback that we were the highest of the four estimates that the member received. The reason we get a great number of recommendations is because of our professionalism, the quality of our products and craftsmanship and our ability to work within our customers’ budgets. We also do what we say we are going to do at the estimated cost with nothing hidden and no surprises. We can assure your member that we value every customer relationship regardless of the condition or age of the current home. We do hope your member will consider us in the future.

Contractors arrived on time and were always courteous. The only delay that we encountered was caused by the supplier of the door hardware. Once the defective part was replaced, the contractors came back and completed the job. Thanks for a job well done!
Description of Work: We had used this company before for our bath remodeling and hardwood floors and we were very pleased with how that project turned out. So, when we wanted to replace our front door and change the hardware on all of the interior and exterior doors, we naturally thought of them. So glad that we did! They responded with the professionalism that we have come to expect from this company. Can't imagine that there is a better, more honest company to work with anywhere. We never feel uncomfortable having their crew of workers in our house.

Joe Evans came out to our house for an estimate on a remodel and reconfiguration of our 2 bathrooms. He was very professional, listened to all of our desires and requests for the bathrooms. I told Joe we were getting more than one estimate and design, which he understood and even encouraged. I really liked the professionalism, but the design of another company was more to our liking.
Description of Work: Estimate for remodel/reconfiguration of 2 bathrooms.
Joe Evans was the sales person we first contacted. He and their in-house interior designer, Staci Tober, came to the house for an initial consultation. When they both returned with a design, we were extremely impressed with the creativity Staci was able to incorporate into the kitchen floorplan. We had been working with three providers for bids and plans, and the creativity and cost estimates provided by Affordable were far better than the other two. Ryan McElroy was our project manager. He coordinated the entire build, which included tile flooring, plumbing, electrical work, lighting, cabinet installation, granite countertops, and the setting of a very heavy farmhouse sink. Communication with Ryan was excellent and the pace of the job was within the timeframes of the contract. In the end, we were left with the impression that we got more than we paid for. Affordable went far out of their way to make sure we were completely satisfied before the contact was finalized.
Description of Work: The kitchen was stripped to bare floors and walls then completely rebuilt.
We are very happy with the work done by David Decker and all the employees/contractors for Affordable Kitchen and Bath. It started when David came to our house to discuss our needs. He listened to all of our concerns, answered all questions, and came up with a very detailed estimate. We knew upfront what was/was not covered in the price. I went to the showroom to choose the materials, and David was very helpful. He kept our style in mind, but made sure we stayed within our budget. David was very mindful of the fact that we have six children, all of our bathrooms were being redone, and we were having a party at our house in the middle of it all. He came up with a time line to assure that we always had at least two working bathrooms, and he stuck with it. Every step of the work was done on time, if not early. Our house is over an hour away from their offices/showroom, but they were here ready to work first thing in the morning. Every person that worked on our house was very professional, even when one of their shoes was stolen by our dog. All areas were prepped to keep messes at a minimum, and everything was clean and safe when each job was done. The workers were knowledgeable, efficient, and friendly and answered all questions I posed to them. Being that our house is 150 years old, we always expect problems when we work on it. The team at Affordable Kitchen and Bath were not thrown by the oddities of our house, and they were very creative in coming up with workable solutions.
Description of Work: Affordable Kitchen and Bath remodeled three bathrooms for us. In the first bathroom, the walls and ceiling were drywalled and painted and a new glass tile shower was installed. We also had new fixtures, mirror, shower door and sink installed. In the second bathroom, we did a complete overhaul. The walls and floor were redone. Plumbing and electric was moved to add a second sink and take out the tub to install a full shower. New cabinets and a granite counter with two undermounted sinks were put in. New tile was installed on the floor and the entire shower. We also had new light and plumbing fixtures, as well as two new mirrors. In the third bathroom, we had a door installed, tile put on the floor, and a shower attachment put on our clawfoot tub.

The timeline we were given was absolutely correct for each job. The estimates were precise within 1-2%, and the variation was always due to our change in a selection or in the scope of the project. I would absolutely use AK&B again!
Description of Work: AK&B has remodeled two of our bathrooms, updated the third and installed granite counter tops in our kitchen. Over the last two years in these several projects, they have been consistently reliable, responsive and professional. David Decker and his team have made our bathrooms into the rooms we are most likely to show off!

I had spoken to a few contractors that said there was no way I could get my kitchen done on the budget that I was working with. Mike Miller from Affordable came out and gave me a lot of ideas about how we could get it done. I met him at the store room to pick out colors and was very impressed with the selection he came up with, initially I thought there wouldn't be many options on my tight budget. The project started and finished on time and on budget, and it was done within a week!
Description of Work: I recently purchased an older home that was in bad need of a new kitchen, hardly had one to speak of to start. I had new flooring, cabinetry, and countertops put in. As well new appliances

David and his team did an incredible job in overseeing this project. My clients were extremely happy with his work, designs and professionalism. He did an incredible job of communicating with the client. They completely gutted the kitchen and half bath and installed new flooring, cabinets, countertops, and fixtures.
Description of Work: Remodeling a kitchen and half bath. New wood flooring throughout the first floor
We could not be more pleased with the work done by Affordable Kitchens and Bathrooms. We contacted them for an estimate on the work we wanted done. Joe Evans came out to give us the estimate. You will probably not find a better person to work with. He is very professional and really understands that commutation is the key in making this work go smoothly. He kept us informed each day of who would be coming to our house and what they would be doing. All of his workers are the "cream of the crop". Each had his own job to do and did it very well. They were all very respectful of our home. The project finished on budget and on time. We would recommend this company to anyone wanting to remodel a kitchen or bathroom. We truly don't think you will find a better company to work with.
Description of Work: Completely remodeled two bathrooms & laid hardwood floors in master bedroom and one bath. Work included complete demo of bathrooms and removal of all trash, framing new shower wall and water closet area, plumbing, wiring, custom shower bases, tiling one bathroom floor and both showers, installing new cabinets, and all trim work.
I worked with Joe Evans from beginning to end, and he was always available and helpful. They built and matched vintage cabinets, and I am very impressed with how well they matched. Joe made very good recommendations about using granite instead of marble in the kitchen, and I love how the granite looks and performs.
Description of Work: New granite counters, new cabinets, dishwasher, plumbing upgrades, and painting.

My kitchen project with Affordable Kitchens was a very bad experience. It took twice as long as was estimated. There were problems and all kinds of excuses for the delays including blaming me. When I talked with the owner, he was argumentative and would not accept responsibility. He would not meet with me at the end of the project. His only concession to me was a small discount and a gift certificate, which I returned to him.

As the owner of Affordable Kitchens and Bathrooms, I can tell you we take pride in the quality of workmanship, timing, and management to budget for all of our customers. I believe this is attested to by all of the customer testimonials that appear on our site and on Angie's list At the beginning of Our projects we share our best case projected schedule for the project We explain that work will not follow this schedule exactly and it will deviate from the plan but we will push to complete by the date stated in the projected schedule. Each of our project managers keeps complete documentation on each of our jobs, Below are the facts from you member's work. Unfortunately, the vendor from which we ordered your members' tile went out of business. We take full responsibility for that. We were able to recover and still complete as projected, however there were several changes made to the original design/composition requested by your member We started work on the 28th of May with an estimated completion by the 19m of June, even with the tile delay, we were still on schedule to complete on lime until the homeowner could not make a tile selection for the back splash. We were finished with the counters on the 16th of June with the tile splash remaining to be completed. The homeowner informed us she could not make a decision until the 28th, of May. We ordered tile material the same day and tile arrived on the 8th. We sent our installers out to install that day. Upon arriving on Site, the homeowner then added decorative inserts that would have to be ordered. We ordered the tile and rescheduled for the 11th The tile was installed and the project was completed by the 12th. The project did not complete on time because the homeowner could not make up her mind on what she wanted. Every project requires two way communication and unfortunately we were not able to obtain the approval from this member in time to complete as projected. It was not possible to complete on time when she could not provide the needed information in a timely manner. We also incurred many additional costs and lost labor time as a result of her inability to communicate with us until the very last moment, often as the craftsmen were starting to install the products. Normally this would add additional costs; however, we did not ask to recover any of these costs In regard to your member referring to me as argumentative and unwilling to take responsibility, I assure you this is completely uncharacteristic of me and all my customers would attest on my behalf. In this business we are often dealt curve balls, it's a part of construction; I am the first one to admit a mistake and take full responsibility. I believe in taking ownership of all fault and work to make it right. There is no exception to this rule and there never will be. I have accepted fault for the project not running as smoothly as possible and offered her a very generous discount of $500 and gift card for the minor inconvenience. The homeowner did return the gift card but not the $500 discount. I also received a call from the homeowner after she filed this report. She said she would remove the negative comments if I gave her 10% off the project price. It is my belief that Angie's list set up this complaint resolution process so that a third party can help resolve issues, not to provide a forum for negotiating discounts. I informed her that she needs to follow the proper channels through Angie's list for resolving this issue. I was delayed in meeting with the homeowner at project completion because I was out of state for a funeral. I told her I would not be able to meet until I arrived back in town due to the funeral. She insisted we discuss immediately over the phone which I was happy to do even though I was with my family. During that conversation I made it a point to make her happy with the discount and gift card. I felt we were on good terms and she was happy even though we had some bumps. She stated she was very happy With the quality and the way everything turned out. Ultimately we are responsible as this is our customer and I am deeply discouraged and upset that my company has disappointed someone. We have always strived to provide the best customer service and our track record proves that. I feel we have admitted and taken responsibility for our portion of the project above and beyond what would normally be expected. Over 50% of our business comes to us from satisfied customer's referrals.

As the owner of Affordable Kitchens and Bathrooms, I intervened from the day this job was initiated. Your member did have an issue with a timeline that was incorrectly communicated to her. We did have to scramble to get things done on time. At Affordable, we pride ourselves on delivering quality, great value and on-time delivery. As a result, that employee is no longer with our firm. I have communicated with her throughout the remodel and she was complementary to everyone except our former employee. I have since sent her a gift card and received a very nice thank you note. At Affordable, we take pride in the service we provide to our customers and our testimonials reinforce that we deliver on that promise.

Outstanding in every respect. Their price was extremely reasonable for the amount and quality of the work they did. Everyone we dealth with at Affordable K&B was very professional and responsive at all times. The work they did is fabulous - they obviously take great pride in their craftsmanship. My wife and I absolutely love the result. They are incredibly customer-focused as well. They had a problem with the supplier for the new glass in our shower and even though they didn't cause the delay they kept us fully informed at all times and very generously compensated us for the inconvenience (they painted our master bath for free!!). I have recommended them to others and wouldn't hesitate to call Joe Evans again for any remodeling work I need.
Description of Work: They replaced our shower with a custom-built shower and installed new ceramic tile, granite tops, sinks, faucets and light bars in the bathrooms. In the kitchen, they installed a new exhaust fan and replaced the counter tops with granite. Also a new sink, faucet and garbage disposal.

David was great to work with. He was very prompt in providing the initial quote and was very diligent in follow-up. He referred us to Bedrock International for the granite selection which took us a couple of visits due to the huge selection they have. The installation went well and the countertops look great! David arrived promptly, first thing in the morning to start the work and completed the job before we had returned home at the end of the day. They also did a great job of cleaning up!
Description of Work: David installed granite countertops and an undercounter sink in our kitchen. He also removed the existing countertops and sink and coordinated the plumbing work involved.
We took a couple bids on project to add sunroom, brick patios & pergola to house/yard. Mr. Decker went to great lengths to present lowest bid, including spending much time working with numerous sub-contractors until bid was within acceptable range. Mr. Decker was EXTREMELY professional and responsive. He not only presented lowest bid, he and most sub-contractors working at his direction, did an oustanding and timely job -- completing the additional room and all related patio and pergola work within short (6-week) time frame. Throughout process I would call Mr. Decker for status reports, and to perform additional work (roof repair, interior drywall repair, and additional tasks) and he performed the work quickly, professionally and, importantly, in a cost-effective manner. I would HIGHLY recommend Mr. Decker for his professionalism, responsiveness and quality of work. (He even personally repaired the few items of sub-standard work performed by one of the sub-contractors).
Description of Work: Addition of Sunroom, brick patios & Pergola to house: Mr. Decker presented lowest bid for overall project (except glass structure), including A/C work, concrete foundation work, brick patio and pergola construction work. Also oversaw and/or directly performed various additional repair projects (interior & exterior) including roof-repair, chimney tuck-pointing, and drywall & hardwood repair/replacement.
