We initially contacted DBK after being referred by friends that used this company for some of their recent kitchen renovations. We initially wanted minor renovations in our kitchen and was referred to designer Anna Dykstra. Anna was very honest, patient and professional with us and presented several options for us to consider. We were having difficulty matching our existing maple cupboards with new modern looking ones we wanted to add, so in the end we decided on a complete kitchen gut (decided to give my older cabinets/ cupboards to my brother for his remodelled kitchen). Anna came up with an absolutely ingenious reconfigured layout that allowed us to use the space in a much more efficient manner. She made suggestions that we never thought of and now we are so happy with these additions that were incorporated in our final design. Although the cost was obviously much more than initially anticipated, we have absolutely no regret with any decisions made. Now shifting to the actual labourers that performed the actual work, if you’re looking for a turn key solution where every detail is taken care of, well DBK is the way to go. The lead labourer Michel was an absolute Godsend! He not only coordinated and oversaw all labourers and tasks of this five week project, he treated our home with respect as if it was his own. With any major projects of this nature, some issues did arise, but Michel ensured every detail was completed to our 100% satisfaction. The one “negative” comment we can make is that we undertook this major project during COVID, which obviously caused some delays to get the job started with provincial shutdowns. We also ran into supply chain issues/ delays when a couple cabinet doors had to be reordered. These delays were obviously out of DBK’ S control as it took the supplier several months to get us the new doors. Some clients may rate DBK lower because of some of these delays, but Anna even confirmed that with the increased demand for products (as everyone is doing renovations), it was very difficult to get reordered items in a timely manner. The delays didn’t cause us to not be able to fully utilize our kitchen, so we had no issues with these unforeseen delays. In summary, if you’re looking for modern and professional work done in your home at a reasonable cost (you pay for quality material and workmanship; if you want cheap, go visit IKEA) and minimal stress, contact DBK. Our designer Anna wanted to see the finished product and stopped by just before Christmas, bringing us a beautiful basket of “goodies”. I was very touched by her gesture, especially after my Mom had recently passed away in early December. We will be doing other renovation projects in years to come (new flooring and bathroom upgrades) and we will definitely be calling DBK.
We recently had a small bar area and our pantry redone by Distinctive Bathrooms and Kitchens. We spent time with Julianna, our designer, who listened to what we were thinking of doing, and she gave us above and beyond what I hoped we would get. The entire staff was terrific and very professional! From our wonderful designer, to the carpenters and the contractors. Exceeded our expectations, and we will absolutely hire them again. Can’t recommend this company enough!
