It's a credit to Granite & Kitchen Studio that, even though this job did not go as smoothly as hoped for, they worked to fix all issues until resolved, and I'm pleased to upgrade my rating to excellent. _________________________________________________________________________________________________ I was referred to Granite & Kitchen Studio by another business. and confirmed the business's rating on Angie's List. I went there and picked out the granite for the kitchen. The salesperson told me that they would install bathroom vanities at the same time at a better price than if I had them installed at a later date, so I also decided to have my 3 bathroom vanities replaced, which I would have done later anyways; it was a good deal! Ahmed came to the house to measure, and we set an installation date. The installers were punctual, very professional and left the areas clean. The 3 bathroom vanities are beautiful! Based on my experience with the bathroom vanities alone, I would have given all 'excellent' ratings. BUT... I was told not to use the kitchen sink or run the disposal for 24 hours, so I pretty much stayed out of the kitchen until the next evening after work. When I was working in the kitchen I noticed that the sink was slightly off-center with the center of the base cabinets (about 1" to the left); there was also a 4"x10" area with scratches to the left of the sink, next to the wall. I contacted Granite & Kitchen Studio with my concerns, and the owner, Ahmed, sent the installation team to review the issues the following Monday. Again, punctual and very professional. Over multiple phone conversations with Ahmed, the installers took measurements again, and then more measurements. After much discussion, I agreed that Ahmed could try removing the countertop and shifting it to the right, closer to the base cabinet center line, while making adjustments to the overhang of an attached peninsula section of the countertop. The countertop will have to be removed, taken back to their shop for recutting one edge, and reinstalled. I'm not sure how the peninsula will look with the shift, and I'm not sure how the scratches will be handled. Ahmed has stipulated that he will not be responsible for the cost of the plumber returning ($280); separating the 2 sections of granite is going to be messy; and I will need to take additional time off from work. This isn't a situation that makes either Ahmed or me very happy. Based on the other reviews, I would not have expected this outcome. How Ahmed responds to these issues will determine how I complete the review for Granite & Kitchen Studio re quality, responsiveness and professionalism. I'll report back when the work is completed- hopefully with an 'excellent' rating."},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/ct/south-windsor/granite-and-kitchen-studio-reviews-7994227.htm"},"position":6},{"@type":"ListItem","item":{"@type":"LocalBusiness","name":"Fantastic Kitchens By George","address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","addressRegion":"CT","addressCountry":"US"},"review":{"@type":"Review","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Joel F."},"reviewBody":"George T.

"Dustin and CCC did wonderful work creating a new bathroom and remodeling a bedroom for our house. What was most positive was Dustin’s energetic interest in the project, dedication to seeing the project through to make it come out with high quality, and persistently spirited good will. There were two aspects that didn’t work quite optimally: (1) The crew took much longer to finish than they promised (the original time was “1-month +” but over two months passed and there were still lingering issues---see below.) If you hire them, I recommend having it written into the contract exactly when it will start and end, including a specification of what the consequences will be if the job isn’t done on time. (2) They didn’t know what to do with our laminated wood floors. They needed to put down protection for the dining room floor which was damaged by the construction traffic, and they had trouble patching and refinishing the floor in the bedroom after removing a wall. When I asked Dustin to address (2), to his credit he was ready to bring in a floor refinishing specialist to fix the issues at a very favorable price to us. At that point, unfortunately, we couldn’t afford the interruption it would cause to have this repair done at that moment. In response, Dustin gave us a discount so we can address these issues with a profession flooring company in the future when we’ll have a good opportunity to vacate the house for this purpose. I recommend that if you need wood floor work done, you make sure there is an agreement in the contract to have somebody with wood floor expertise address that part. In all, Dustin was generous and willing to try to work with us when there were issues. I know that his company has also been generous about helping people who were in need in the past. This is a quality that I particularly admire in a company, so we still feel very positive toward CCC, but I have identified the issues we had in hopes that they won’t be issues for other clients in the future."

"Working with Chris and the greater group of Dynamic Basement was an absolute pleasure. From day one, Chris went above and beyond. Starting nearly a year prior to starting our project, Chris was one of the only businesses to answer our initial quote questions. We were not ready at the time, but that did not stop Chris from continuing our conversations and answering our many questions. Fast forward a year later and selecting Chris and his team was the best decision we made. His attention to detail, genuine care and priority for meeting our vision and needs, and craftsmanship is only the tip of the iceberg when you work with Chris and each of the professionals he works with. We were so thankful for the clear and consistent communication, continued willingness to answer our questions (and there were many!), and how he treated us as friends rather than clients. Our finished basement is beyond our expectations, meeting our budget and timeline needs. Chris was able to work with us through every detail, never overlooking or disregarding what we wanted. My family and I highly recommend working with Chris and Dynamic Basements for exceptional quality!"

Kitchen Cabinet Refacing questions, answered by experts
Any of your garage shelves should be able to hold heavier loads, but it’s best to place heavier items on middle shelves. The only reason for this is to prevent injury—lifting heavy loads from down low requires squatting or bending over, which can lead to back injury, and lifting heavy loads off of high shelves in the garage can be especially dangerous if you drop them.
You can add glass to your existing kitchen cabinet doors with a few tools and some patience. We recommend following the DIY steps listed above, which include cutting a panel for the glass, cutting and adding the glass, and reattaching your cabinetry. If these steps seem too complicated or you’d rather have the peace of mind of a professional installation, hire a cabinet installation pro to handle this project for you.
The refacing process involves removing old cabinet fronts, applying veneer to frames, installing new doors, and updating hardware. It can enhance kitchen or bathroom appearances without extensive renovations.
Yes, soft-close drawers are quick and simple to add to a refacing project. Get in touch with a kitchen cabinet refacing contractor for an estimate. In many cases, your cabinet contractor or repair person can bundle the cost of upgrading your cabinets to soft-close drawers into the total bill of your project. They may even offer a discount for combining these services, but you’ll need to shop around for the best deal.
Common materials used for cabinet refacing include laminate, wood veneers, and thermofoil. These offer varied aesthetic options and durability levels, depending on your budget.
