Crafted Home NY

Excellent design, punctual, respectful workers. Several glitches corrected as soon as possible. Tom Krauss, owner, was on top of everything. He is a perfectionist and made sure that the job was nothing short of perfect.

A kitchen remodeling is not an easy journey; it requires a lot of planning, detail work, consulting, design, not to mention imagination, and sometimes flexibility, for example, the initial plan called for six lighting fixtures but after the ceiling was removed the beam configuration called for eight. So let me say: Tom Krauss, President of Crafted Kitchen, is one classy guy. He is cultured, articulate, detail oriented, artistic, with a strong sense of aesthetics. But what makes him great is his desire for perfection. He is highly professional and a man of his word. Each of his workers and subcontractors,except for the plumber (who didn't seem as knowledgable as he should be), was an exceptional craftsman. The workers were professional, humble, respectful, sensitive and beyond hard working. This is a powerhouse team. The job took about six weeks with additional time to tweak, adjust and fix a few doors and cracked tiles. There was an issue of the internal finishing of the cabinetry which was attended to and corrected immediately. I stayed in close contact with Tom throughout and if I needed to explain something, a picture, emailed, was worth a thousand words. At Mr. Krauss' recommendation, the following businesses were engaged: CANCOS TILE: 22 west 21 St., New York 10010 : see Hildee, who is exceptionally good with color and visualizing 212-627-1545 GRINGER & SONS APPLIANCES: 29 First Avenue, New York 10003: see Allan Schuster/212-475-0600 CUSTOM GRANITE FABRICATIONS: 1731 Ginesi Drive, Freehold, NJ 07728: see Adam Berg/732-866-0080 GSA Electric Corp: 9302 Ditmas Ave.Brooklyn, NY 11236: see Gregg Margolin/718-922-3300

nice guy but not very creative. He took our plans and drew them by hand. He used only one cabinet company and while they seemed to be high quality, the designs were not modern.

THEY WERE GREAT. THEY WERE AN AWESOME BUNCH OF WORKERS. THE PRICE WAS GREAT, AND VERY FAIR FOR THE WORK THEY DID. I WOULD RECOMMEND THEM TO EVERYONE. I WOULD DEFINITELY HIRE THEM AGAIN.

THEY DID AN EXCELLENT JOB. THEY WERE VERY PROFESSIONAL AND ALWAYS ON TIME. THE JOB WAS FINISHED ON SCHEDULE. THEY LEFT NO MESSES FOR US TO CLEAN UP.
