This is the second time we have used these guys at Gramophone and the Kitchen Design Center, and we could not be happier! They did a build in office for us and it even exceeded our expectations! Gus and Kailyn are a terrific design team, Stacey has so much expertise as she helped me pick out the cabinets, quartz counter, hardware, etc and our project managers Bill and JJ were the best! Communication is so important to us and these guys are on it! Very professional team, and the quality of this project is over the top!!! We will use them again!
