Kitchen Design Professionals in Waunakee, WI

“I worked with Coyle Carpet (mostly with Bobbi and Anika) when we were building our home. We had a great experience with something that can often be very stressful. They took time helping us pick out cabinets, flooring, countertops, etc. We did not feel rushed and they were very helpful when we would get "stuck" and had a hard time making decisions. I would not hesitate working with them again for any remodeling or future builds!”

“Jenny was wonderful to work with. Her designs were very thorough and easy to read. She was great to work with, always available and ready to answer any questions. She walked us through all steps and made sure that the installation process was simple and not stressful for us. She stayed in our budget and took responsibility when something was wrong or needed to be fixed. We were very happy with her ability to design a small space and make it feel bigger and maximize the space to its potential. We love our kitchen, mudroom and bathroom that she designed. They are spaces that we truly love to be in and enjoy. Our remodel/renovation would not have been as much fun or as easy if she wouldn't have been involved. She is great at what she does and we would absolutely hire her again.”

“My husband and I undertook a six-figure home addition and renovation to build a chef's kitchen. We consulted four different cabinetry businesses, and selected Curran for the following reasons: 1. Mr. Curran provided us with design renderings that enabled us to view not only the finished cabinets, but the overall finished appearance of the kitchen. This was something not even our general contractor was able to provide. 2. Mr. Curran worked with us over the course of several sessions to design specific aesthetics into the cabinets; we were not looking for specialized functionality as much as we were a very custom appearance. Mr. Curran tirelessly worked with us to ensure that appearance was achieved. 3. Mr. Curran showed us what the finished product would look like, including highlights of the construction and design. These were not out-of-the-box cabinets, but handcrafted, quality pieces of workmanship, and Mr. Curran was both proud of and excited by the work of his cabinetmakers. The final product is beautiful, functional, easy to maintain, and appropriate to the space. Other subs involved in our project eagerly commented on the beauty, uniqueness, and appeal of the work. We are incredibly pleased and cannot recommend Mr. Curran and his cabinetmakers highly enough. Truly, our experience was outstanding.”

“Marci has designed and overseen a kitchen remodel and an office/laundry remodel for me, and I couldn't be more pleased with the outcomes of both. What sets Marci apart from other designers is that she is an excellent listener. When I've explained what I wanted, in both cases, she asked questions and clarified specifics, and then delivered! She offered alternatives and options, but didn't push some over others, so what I got was really mine! She also made some very helpful suggestions and had some great ideas for key elements. In addition, the people she found to do the various aspects of the projects arrived when scheduled and did quality work. You won't go wrong with Marci in charge of your project!”

“I had the pleasure of working with DC Interiors and Renovations on a kitchen and dining room project. They transformed their client's space by remodelling the layout, new flooring, bold new color choices and stunning wallpaper. I worked with them to achieve their window covering dreams and add the finishing touches with fabric. DC Interiors and renovations are professional, innovative in their design and take care to make sure the client is happy every step of the way. Being their own general contractor makes it easy to oversee everything and ensure the project runs smoothly from start to finish. I look forward to working with them again.”

“In late 2011 my wife and I decided to do a major remodeling of our en-suite master bathroom of a 30+ year old house that we have been living in for the past 13+ years. Based on our awareness of Frey’s strong reputation for their quality of remodeling work and referrals, we made the decision out of many options to go with Frey. My wife worked closely with the Frey Designer over a period of a few weeks to develop the design, selection of all of the equipment choices of custom cabinets, sinks, fixtures, toilets, reconstruction of the shower area, lighting and color schemes – we were also helped by the Frey Designer for appointments to the various suppliers to make our final decisions. We were surprised how efficiently the installation and construction process took when there were so many sequencing steps needed. The crew was always polite and very careful about working inside our house. And the Designer/Project Manager was always available to answer questions that came up during the process. And everything was completed on budget! In September 2012 when we noted our 30+ year gutters were beginning to leak, my wife and I made a decision to replace our gutters quickly, including leaf protection, so we would not have to clean out our gutters in the Fall, this year or future years. As mentioned above, we previously had Frey remodel our master en-suite bathroom and this work made a huge difference and exceeded our expectations such that we knew Frey would be our clear choice for either inside or outside remodeling. It is quite amazing the difference a beautiful bathroom area makes as to how you feel when you realize how many hours of your life you spend in your bedroom/bathroom area. Until the Frey salesman explained it to us, we didn’t realize how many options we had to get the right mix of choice for gutters to meet our needs. We chose the Absolute Gutter because it carries more water and it is seamless so leaks don’t develop like traditional gutters. And the patented Big Mouth downspout connection for better water flow away from the gutter made a lot of sense. And when we included the Leakproof gutter protection we now don’t have to worry about cleaning out leaves and debris from the gutters. The Frey installation team did a great job doing the work, was very friendly and took extra care to look after our garden plants and bushes around the edge of the house. However, when the gutters were installed late in September we got a big surprise when the job had been completed. The new gutters added a great architectural impact relative to the standard gutters we previously had. We now recognized comparatively that the old gutters had visually interfered with the line between the roof and the wall. The lines and texture of the Absolute Gutters totally merged into the lines of the roofing and the wood walls. Not only do we now have better functioning gutters, an aesthetically more satisfying look, no leaves to clean out each Fall, I know we have added value to our house. And seven months since the gutters were installed and after torrential and for what seemed like continuous rains in this past Spring, we could not be happier about how the heavy water flows immediately clear our house area. These experiences with Frey Remodeling made them the natural choice to examine the attic area in March 2013 when we discovered that too much heat was escaping into our attic area. Scott Frey came out and went throughout the attic and discovered our 30+ year insulation was no longer effective and that heat was also escaping through ceiling light fixtures. And the most critical discovery was that the 30+ year ceiling light fixtures did not meet today’s code and in fact were a potential fire hazard. The Frey team completed the insulation and replacement of 40 ceiling light fixtures during the next week, a very quick turnaround for what had become a hazard concern to us. And we have already noticed our house is warmer and will also save energy during the summer months. It is without hesitation that I can recommend Frey for any remodeling job to change the way you will feel about your house and potentially increase its value. And they have been on budget every time for major remodeling work at our home. And each time it has been with the full support of their design and production teams who always had our interests in mind as they did their work. I. M. Madison, Wisconsin May, 2013”

“We truly enjoyed working with Dana from Dybdahl Design. The level of knowledge and expertise she brought to our kitchen redesign was priceless. She thoroughly understood our needs and worked within our budget to deliver a top-notch kitchen that we love.”

“Niki did an awesome job with the plans for our basement bar area. We love how it all came together! We're having her back for our kitchen!”

“Julia Chady was our lead interior design professional when she conducted our 2013 kitchen remodel. We found her to be professional, highly capable, very easy to work with, budget-minded, and terrific at getting all the various contractors on schedule. She was always open to our design suggestions and helped us arrive at our ultimate design. Julia's negotiation skills allowed us to get the Cambria quartz countertops we REALLY wanted, instead of our second choice, which saved us thousands of dollars. We've lived with this kitchen for two years now and we still absolutely love it. Julia Chady is our go-to interior design and remodeling expert. When we are thinking about a design project, it is Julia that we turn to for her expert help.”

“I have been working with a general contractor over the past year on a large renovation project and have been very disappointed with the overall customer service, project management, communication, and cost of the contractor with whom I’ve worked. As a result, I decided to outsource the final finishing work to another contractor, in hopes of finding a better experience. I was looking for a contractor who could meet my expectations in terms of professionalism, quality service, schedule, fair pricing, reliability, and trust. I found that with Mike at Edge Construction. I contacted Mike at Edge Construction after hearing an advertisement on the radio. Mike responded promptly and offered flexible times to review my project and offer a quote (free of charge). My finishing project included installing baseboard and door jamb trim throughout my house, as well as installing several custom closet doors. During the consultation, Mike walked through my property asking questions about what I wanted, what was important to me (cost, material, timelines, etc.), described how the work would be done, and explained options for materials and methods to consider. Knowing that cost was a key consideration for me, Mike offered to unbundle his services to allow me to work directly with his recommended suppliers to keep my price at his cost (the tradeoff being that I took on the responsibilities of coordinating timing, material ordering, material defect management, etc.). Mike was able to offer me a rough estimate at the time of the walk through and followed up within a week with a formal quote. The quoting and contracting process was casual but comprehensive. Mike offered a low pressure buying experience, with information and options to meet my needs. The estimate overall was provided at a very fair price point, with some portions being significantly less expensive than other contractors. Something that differentiated Edge during the quoting process was while reviewing the project with me, Mike talked through the projects I was asking for directly, but also offered insight to additional areas with which he could assist to improve the work of the other contractor. What struck me is that while talking through those additional areas, Mike was very respectful of the other contractor’s work (complimenting some portions of it), as opposed to degrading it to build an “up sale” opportunity, but was straight forward in expressing his recommendation. During that discussion, he suggested that I bring those areas to the contractor’s attention for resolution, as that is what he would do if it “was his house”. Mike was most concerned with helping provide a quality complete end product that I would be happy with, regardless of who was doing the work. I ended up having Edge Construction address those recommended areas (which Mike agreed to do at a very low price), in addition to the original finish work Mike quoted for me. Even though I took on the responsibility of ordering materials and coordinating schedules from suppliers to reduce the overall project cost, Mike did assist me by offering a final review of the material order and even following up with the supplier at one point when the material delivery was delayed. Edge Construction remained flexible with their schedule and accommodated my needs very well during material procurement. Once the materials arrived and Edge Construction began their work, I was impressed. The team was very professional, friendly, cleaned up the job site each day, and even accommodated some small on-the-job requests I made. Mike checked in on the work with his team and remained a point of contact for me, to assist with any questions or needs I had along the way. The job took about 1.5 days longer than planned, but was primarily due to unanticipated complexity and additional time needed to do the job correctly. When those complexities and associated schedule extensions were identified, Mike communicated that to me to ensure my expectations were managed. Despite the slight extension to timeline and unexpected complexity, the project came in on budget. At the closure of the job, Mike walked through the work and addressed any questions I had. Mike was prompt to provide an invoice at project closure and flexible with my payment schedule. I was very satisfied with the quality of the work and project overall. I have since worked with Edge Construction on an additional finishing project (trimming the windows) and plan to work with Edge to trim my kitchen island. Edge has continued to provide good customer service and quality; while remaining responsive, flexible, fair, and well-priced through those other projects. I finally found a contractor I look forward to working with again in the future.”
