You know, almost all companies talk a lot about their "customer service", "dedication", "quality" and just about any other point that they think will urge you to trust them and ultimately give them your money. Most of them think higher of themselves than their clients do.
We fully know that it's not what we say about ourselves that really speaks to your trust — it's what our customers say about us that matters most!

Description Of Work:
Our master bath was taken down to the studs, totally rewired and a cabinet behind the back wall of the shower was removed and walled off to match existing walls and the shower enlarged. We had an old dropped ceiling with florescent lighting which was removed and raised to regular ceiling height. The shower was retiled and included a small bench seat in the corner and a niche which held all our Costco-size shampoos, etc. New flooring was installed and new sheetrock was installed and textured to match the bedroom walls as well as primed and painted. They also installed new crown, baseboard and doorway molding. The toilet supply line was moved and we had two light fixtures and one receptacle relocated. We even had an electrical outlet installed inside the medicine cabinet for the electric toothbrush. We also had a new bifold door and a swing door, with 10 opaque divided light in each, installed. We got a new vanity, toilet and lighting fixtures installed.
Client Comments:
The professionalism of this group is not to be believed! From the first meeting with Johans, to the start day of this project through the finishing of the smallest detail, was handled expertly by the most wonderful crew of really hard workers. The entire project was done with minimal disruption to our lives, which was more than appreciated. The electrician found a live wire in the wall, which led to a complete rewiring job and when we found the the "wall boards" were plywood we had new sheetrock installed. Both of these items were quickly handled with a change order and caused no delay in the project. The crew showed up on time EVERY DAY and were the most amenable group I have ever met. Pete, the project manager, came by EVERY DAY to check on the progress and if anything was needed, he'd go get it right then. Our many thanks to Johans, Pete, Gary, George, Charlie and Brandon for a spectacular job and our wonderful new bathroom.

Description Of Work:
My home had a very ugly color in the tub and shower so I had it refinished.
Client Comments:
We had the tub and the shower refinished and were very pleased with the results. It took 3 days as it had to be sprayed on then blown to dry. When it was done it looked like porcelain. They did a great job as they covered everything in the bathroom with paper and there was no over spray. The young men that came were great and did a fabulous job. I was very pleased with the work and the bathroom is beautiful.

Description Of Work:
Complete master bath remodel, including tile tub surround, tile floors, granite, new windows, heated floor, new electrical & plumbing.
Client Comments:
My master bath was gutted to the studs. Overall, work went very well. Firstly, Johans showed the most interest in my business before a contract was signed. He made some adjustments to his original quote at my request after I re-considered some of the original plans. He never showed impatience as I finalized what I wanted. Communication from Johans and his team was excellent throughout. There were some delays caused primarily due to extended delays in delivery of tub & also from broken granite received by fabricator. Workmanship was very good. I was extremely happy with the quality of the tile work, new window installation, cabinet quality and paint. Components supplied by contractor (ceiling fan, cabinets, light fixtures, electrical floor heating system & glass block windows) were all of very high quality. The crew was very careful to protect other parts of the house from damage or dust intrusion. Wood and carpeted floors were always covered prior to work beginning each day & uncovered at the end of the work day. Cleanup at the end of the job was thorough. I didn't have to clean up after these guys. Johans was always eager to please. He said several times during the course of the job "I want you to be happy", & these weren't just idle words. He lived them. He always checked with me on the quality of work done by subs (tile, electrical, plumbing & granite) & if I had any concerns, he would rectify them immediately. I highly recommend American Kitchen & Bath.

Client Comments:
On the first day a worker brought a trailer to haul all debris away. Daily they arrived at the scheduled time and usually worked a full day. Every employee introduced himself, used polite and respectful language at all times. There were a couple of minor miscalculations which American Kitchen & Bath handled very professionally and to my satisfaction. The design and kitchen lay-out was everything we hoped for - Ron Moist excellent job! The workers have the best attitudes and were pleasant to be around. We shared a mutual respect - I for their professionalism and they for our home. To Mr. Johans Wartenbergh, you have a great company, Yvette and I rave about our new kitchen - thank you

Description Of Work:
Kitchen remodeling. Involving cabinet work, ceramics, granite, plumbing, electrical, and painting.
Client Comments:
The craftsman was very well qualified for the multiple skills required, and stood on the job until done. I don't say this lightly, but the workmanship was outstanding and worth the money (a little on the high side). The worker consulted me frequently to assure things are done the way I wanted it. A thorough inspection by me showed no quality problems, of the work done. The owner showed up on and off to follow up to assure things go per plan. Overall, a satisfying experience for a change.

Approximate Cost:
$35,000.00
Description Of Work:
Complete kitchen remodel. They tore out existing cabinets, appliances, flooring and electric. They installed new cabinets, lighting, electric, appliances and flooring. Note: The job cost more than anticipated because I had to upgrade the entire electric panel for the house. They warned me that this might be an issue, so although I wasn't happy about it, I wasn't surprised.
Client Comments:
First off, a kitchen remodel is very disruptive! I had no idea that what I would miss the most was my kitchen sink! But Johan's' crew did everything they could to minimize the chaos. The tear out was done very quickly. The install went a bit slower, but I am very pleased with the end result -- I love my new kitchen! They were great about answering my questions and very reassuring about my concerns. The only reason I gave them a B for punctuality is that there were a few days that nothing happened when I had expected work to get done. I plan to remodel my bathrooms later and will definitely call them back.
