Ed and Mary were wonderful to work with. Ed was very helpful in answering all our questions, and suggesting things we had forgotten. From the very beginning of the process to the follow up after installation, the experience with Plank's has been amazing. Our cabinets are beautiful and well built. We are so impressed, we will be having our dining room table made at Plank's as well.
