Ben and his workers/subcontractors are very professional and take pride in their work. We made several changes to the original contract(s), but Ben was very responsive to our requests and reasonable in his costs for the changes. Doing remodeling always comes with surprises as ours did, but the work was completed on time and completely to our satisfaction. I would highly recommend Ben Kitchens for any type of remodel.

Deck installation started a week later than we had discussed and took 2 days longer. The employees were very professional. The only issue I had with this is the lack of communication when things did not go as scheduled. Very good quality work.
Description of Work: I had them build a new deck. This project required teardown and removal of the old deck.

[member name removed], Thanks so much for your posting. I am the first one to admit that we could have done a better job of communicating. In defense of getting a later than anticipated start and completion, we had a stretch of time where the weather and heat index was triple digit which cut into both our work days and efficiency.. Bottom line, I am grateful for the opportunity as well as the fact that the end product met your expectations. If you should ever have a problem with anything on the deck, don't hesitate to contact me. Thanks again, Ben Kitchens

Thank you for posting your opinion. Yes, you most certainly called me when I was on vacation and again after I returned. I did indicate that I would get back with you and never did. I failed to follow up and make an appointment to visit with you about your flooring. I apologize for not doing so. It must also be noted that I never set a date and time to come to your house. I hope you found someone to take care of your flooring needs and are happy with the results.

It went extremely well. There was quite a bit of time between the time I received the estimate and the time the work was completed. However, it was worth the wait. Two men came to do the job. Both were professional and courteous. I asked them that if they found more damaged siding that needed to be replaced, to please do it. They did find some more that needed to be repaired. They started the work on a Friday, but were able to complete the work the following Monday. I really appreciated that they were able to do that. The work they did looked fabulous!! You could hardly even tell where the new siding began and the old ended. They did a wonderful job. I would definitely go to Ben Kitchens again when or if I need more work done on my home. A+++++++

They were very efficient. They came out with all their subcontractors. They went overall the details and came back with the quotes and the quotes are very on par with what we expected. We know some of his subcontractors already. We've worked with them before so were really pleased that they work with them. It's a good experience.

My wife and I hired Ben to paint the exterior of our home. I was told they were going to seal all cracks before they painted but they failed to do that and I had to call Ben multiple times to get that straightened out. They were to replace the wood trim around the base of the pillars on the front porch. The work was shoddy, the cuts they made were way off and then they attempted to fix it be putting caulking into all the cracks where the wood was inaccurately cut and left large gaps. We had to call him back to recoat several areas that were not properly covered with paint. There were other problems as well but the worst was the email I received from him stating the "I was being overly critical."That is just complete BS and I have the photos of the work to prove it. I have had him do a number of jobs at my home but this will probably be the last. Very disappointed in the performance.

The people working for Ben Kitchens Painting Co. did an excellent job. We are very happy with the results. We spent just short of $50,000 for all the remodeling. We have a new kitchen with granite countertops, new cabinets, new lighting and a redesign on appliances placement and all new hardware. The bathrooms now have new ceramic tile floors, shower and bath surrounds, toilets, cabinets, glass sliding shower doors. The walls were repainted and the ceilings were textured and painted. We also have new windows throughout the house.

I have nothing but wonderful things to say about Ben Kitchens and his company. Ben walked through everything that needed to be done, step by step in a very friendly, professional, and knowledgeable manner. The painters were in my home for two days and did an absolutely fantastic job. They were not only friendly, but excellent craftsmen who made the experience as minimally invasive as possible. Ben worked with us as well, only doing the jobs that we were not able to do to help us save some money. He was also available at the last minute to do some additional work that we had not initially requested. The cost did not go one penny over the estimate. Any time I had a question, I would shoot an email to Mr. Kitchens and he responded quickly. Everyone was on time and extremely efficient. I am above and beyond satisfied and I cannot sing this company's praises enough.

HOW DID IT GO: The project took too long to complete all the work correctly. Kitchens contractor started the 1st visit in June of 2013, we decided on the work to be done to remove old fiberglass Master Bath Shower and replace with new ceramic tile floor and walls. Replace counter tops in three bathrooms with quartz tops with new faucets, and painting of 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. I needed to purchase all the tile, paint, and light fixtures, NO ALLOWANCE WAS GIVEN FOR THE TILE, PAINT, and LIGHTS. The other items the contractor would supply for the project. Project was to take approximately 2 weeks. He started in August of 2013 and did not complete until 30 December of 2013. Project started off very slow because he had to many other projects going on at the same our project started. Most of the time was lost in re-performing work and some would have been avoided if the work had been done properly. The electrician cut a large hole in the master bath ceiling that was not necessary and caused the painters to scrape, mud, and stomped the ceiling pattern three times before the patch blended in with the ceiling. The tiler had many tiles in the shower and all the vanity back splashes had to be replaced for chip edges, tiles not laying flat, and holes in the grout a few times. The grout had to be removed in the shower and two back splashes because the grout dried a chalky color. The shower floor had to re-tile due to clips in the tile from removing the chalky grout. The contractor did pay for the tile, because we did not have enough tile to re-tile the shower floor. Even with all the delays we did not pay the Contractor until the project was completed. Three of the subcontractors did very good and prompt work: Smalls Plumbing and Interstate Glass of Junction City and Granite Guys of Topeka Kansas.
Description of Work: WHAT DID THEY DO: Master Bath Shower, Tile floor, Quartz Counter tops for 3 bathrooms, 4 toilets, fixtures for 3 Bathrooms, lights in master, and three new exhaust fans. NO ALLOWANCE was given for the tile, paint, and lights .

We hired Ben to paint the main floor of our house back in November. His crew was fantastic and we couldn't be happier with the job they did. They were very professional, and really nice guys. They finished the job in two days. The walls look fantastic. Most importantly, Ben gave us a quote, and stuck to that price. There is nothing worse than budgeting the amount a contractor quotes you, and then get charged hundreds more because the contractor low-balled you to get the job. Ben was great. His crew was great. And we are extremely satisfied. So much so, that we just contracted them to put in a new deck for us this spring.

They replaced all of our windows and put up new siding. The team showed up on time and the windows were done in two days. When they started the siding, there was a slight problem with them showing up late in the day, but one phone call to Mr. Kitchens fixed that problem immediately. I would definitely recommend Ben Kitchens Painting Co. to anyone. They did a wonderful job. Our utility bills our lower and house looks great!

We wanted to remodel the kitchen, so we called Ben. He painted our house a few months ago and did a good job, so we thought we'd work with him again. The original bid seemed reasonable- it was $17K and included cabinets, countertop, backsplash, floor and finishing touches like paint, etc. Once we got started my husband and I decided to add to the scope of work by removing the plaster and lathe walls and replacing them with drywall. We also added some can lights in the ceiling. Ben and his crew accommodated our requests. They have been professional. The have cleaned up after themselves, and I've not heard any inappropriate language, which I appreciate with little ones at home. Ben is keeping me informed of the cost increases and agreed to let me do the painting, at my request, to save a little bit. So far we are very happy with the project, and once it's finished I will post before and after photos.

I called about replacement flooring and needed it done at the last minute, Don came by to take measurements that next day or so and they were installing my floor within a few days. I really appreciate the promptness and efficiency that I received from Ben and Don.
Description of Work: My vinyl floor was installed perfectly, as is all the work Ben Kitchens and his crew have done on my house, so once again, thank you Ben. I'm especially picky and I pay very close to detail and Ben has exceeded all my expectations. A couple years ago his company and contractors put vinyl siding, guttering, soffits and fascia on my house and to this day, I still receive numerous compliments about the amazing job his company did. If I have questions, Ben has the answers and that's important to me, so I highly recommend his company for all your home needs.
