We have found that people get the impression that we
are expensive just by walking into one of our showrooms. We
understand completely why this is. As designers we have the
talent, experience and capability to take a reasonably priced
product and make it look spectacular.
Let’s take the phrase “reasonably priced.” In order to be able
to say this we have to understand the local market and we do.
We are well aware of our competition, their product lines, service history and pricing.
In addition over the last 23 years we have filtered though cabinet manufacturer’s
literally by the dozens to find the few that offer the product, service and pricing
necessary to make the claim that we are in fact reasonably priced.
We demand the following from our suppliers: Value priced product with a quality
look, solid construction methods, exemplary customer service and consistent delivery
schedules. We also demand a wide variety of door styles and finishes at the same
price-point so that we can offer you more.
The truth is we do have incredible looking showrooms and people are always
impressed when they stop by. So come on in and experience the feeling of great
service and the attention to your details that you deserve.
