We want to express our appreciation, and thank you for assisting us with our complete kitchen renovations. As you know, we had felt that our kitchen never had come together for us, despite some improvements we had made on our own, during 1999-2000, when we moved here. However, during our 1st trip to Stuart, when we met you, that all changed for the better. The variety of cabinets that Stuart offers, and the infinite amount of staining combinations, really impressed us.
We are pleased with the end result. The kitchen "works" much better, thanks to your careful planning and diagramming. Your contacts with representatives from tile, granite, electric, and appliances, really helped bring the entire project together. We love the birch cabinets, the granite, tile, new lighting arrangements, and appliances. We are sure that the value of our home, particularly since our kitchen is such a visible, central part of our house, has been increased by having this major improvement done by such professionals as those who work with Stuart Kitchens.
Having several friends who have done major kitchen overhauls with other kitchen remodelers, reinforced that you and Stuart Kitchens are foremost in handling such projects. While they have reported delays and frustrations, our remodeling stayed on schedule. Helen, your frequent updates and explanations of what was about to happen next, giving us "heads-up" information, greatly assisted us in preparation. It was also very reassuring that you periodically visited our home to check on the progress. We particularly enjoyed working with Stuart McClaren, who installed the wall and floor tiles.
Finally, we want to say thank you for the lovely bouquet of flowers that you sent to us when the kitchen was completed. That is such a nice, gracious touch, and nearly a week later, the bouquet, still fresh, adorns our new birch, granite-topped, gently lit island, a focal point from our front entryway. So, thank you for all of your help, Helen.
