The cabinetry came in several weeks after it was promised and there was no communication on the owners part. The workers professionalism when they came to install is the only good thing I can say about Kitchen Tune Up. I was expecting when I hired them that when they finished I would have a new kitchen. They didn't install the plumbing for the sinks or the microwave which Stu said he would. For several weeks I tried calling to find out when they would complete the job. He wouldn't return my phone calls. I had to hire someone else to do the work they should have completed. I requested a custom cabinet to discretely tuck away a small step ladder to reach the upper cabinets. What I got was my counter top shortened by about eight (8) inches so now I have an excessively large gap between the refrigerator and where the cabinets end. My counter top space was already very limited! There was no thought given to the electrical for the stove as the new cabinets covered it up. I had to have an outside contractor to the work. The electrical box for the stove was also partially covered by the cabinets.
For the bathroom vanity the opening for the under mounted sink was not cut in the right place not allowing enough room for the back-splash I ordered and the hole was cut too large. I purchased a mosaic tile to replace the stone back splash I wanted and the people he sent over to do the install ruined the tile I bought by removing the individual mosaics from their backing; I have no clue how the guy was intending to install these tiny little mosaic tiles one by one! I requested from Stu if it was possible to get baseboards to match the vanity and linen closet to keep everything uniform. Stu said it was no problem. On a couple of occasions after the install of the vanity and linen closet I asked him what was going on with the baseboards and the missing hardware for the vanity. He didn't know only to say it had been ordered.
You can visit the office and see the different woods and finishes and select from samples a counter-top that you will like but what you don't get to see is the actual cabinets themselves. To add insult to injury is the poor craftsmanship of the cabinets themselves. They used this laminate wood grain with a sticky backing which is peeling up at the edges. On the upper-cabinets you can see where they used these plastic tabs and staples to hold the cabinets together. For the corner cabinets there are lazy susans which are constructed of flimsy plastic which I'm sure wont last long before they brake.
I would NEVER recommend Kitchen Tune-Up to anyone. I have never been as dissatisfied with a company as I am with this one. When you hear about remodeling nightmares, look no further than this company.
