FIRST MEETING TO COMPLETION

60 Days

Meet Neil Orwick and Scott Johnson

Deep experience in the Connecticut communities we serve, combined with creativity and an unwavering commitment to quality and value, set Kitchen Traditions apart. For us, the only thing that matters is your complete satisfaction with the new kitchen or bathroom we design and install in your house.

NEIL ORWICK – FOUNDER/OWNER

Neil holds advanced degrees in Visual Arts and History and has decades of experience in kitchen and bath remodeling. His design instincts were honed by years of being in the field and looking at blueprints in the spaces where they were being used. He has worked with many local builders, architects, and homeowners over the years and effectively matches their needs with high-quality products that are elegant, well-made, and well-priced.

SCOTT JOHNSON – DESIGNER

Scott has over 40 years of design experience, focusing on the construction side of design and remodeling. He is detail-oriented and precise about measurements and layout, spending extra time hand-drawing each design to ensure they go together perfectly. He’s the best in the business, and we are lucky to have his knowledge and skill in-house.

What are the Steps to Remodel a Kitchen or Bathroom?

Free In-Home Consultation & Measuring

This is your opportunity to talk with us and familiarize us with your needs, the size of your family, and what you like/don’t like about your current kitchen or bathroom. We’ll ask some questions to help us personalize the space for your needs. We’ll measure the room(s) to be renovated and feed the dimensions into our 3D design program.

Initial Design Development

Your requests and preferences inform the design and development process; you’ll receive several design layouts to consider. We’re prompt with getting back to you with ideas – the design process takes seven to ten days to complete.

Design Meeting

When the designs are created and ready for review, we’ll invite you for a showroom visit to take a look and discuss the pros and cons of each. As you give us your thoughts and feedback, we will incorporate the things you like into one winning design. You’ll be looking at cabinet options, colors, door styles, and countertop options, all of which are synthesized into the foundation of a proposal.

Walk-Thru – Proposal – Contract

We’ll revisit your home for a walkthrough with our construction supervisor to finalize how the project will unfold on-site from the beginning to the final installation. It allows us to complete a comprehensive proposal with all costs to make the design a reality. You’ll see a breakdown of the prices for the cabinets, countertops, flooring, tiling, demolition costs, and construction/installation. The proposal becomes the contract we will follow, including timelines and benchmarks for keeping the project moving.

Demolition / Removal

Old cabinets, countertops, floors, fixtures, etc., are carefully removed from your home. Our crews will work as quickly, neatly, and quietly as possible. They will put up protective barriers where possible to minimize dust and dirt. Please expect some amount of noise and dust that are inevitable with any in-home construction.

Build Out / Installation

As stipulated in the contract, we work to build and install your kitchen or bath on time. Our process includes ongoing communication with you, weekly site meetings, and quick replies to your questions. We understand you want your new kitchen or bath ready to go as quickly as possible and to minimize disruption in your home. Our people share your sense of urgency and will do what it takes to finish on time.

How Long Does Remodeling Take?

The kitchen and bathroom design process customarily takes three weeks, from the initial consultation (home visit) to the signed contract. Then, we order cabinets, countertops, fixtures, and other materials.

Cabinet delivery is the most significant variable and ranges from three to twelve weeks, depending on the style you order and any custom cabinets to be fabricated; we coordinate the demolition to take place just as the cabinets arrive to minimize downtime.

In general, kitchen remodeling takes four weeks to complete, and bath remodeling takes two to three weeks. No two projects are alike, and we will be clear and upfront with you about the expected timeline.

What’s Different When You Work with Us?

Very few kitchen and bathroom remodelers will take the time we do to ensure every detail is correct. It begins with measuring and design and carries through to construction and installation. If you have ideas in your head and need assistance getting them into a workable plan, we’re ready to help.

When you work with us, you can look forward to receiving the best.

  • High-quality cabinets and countertops
  • Creativity and ahead-of-the-curve design
  • Outstanding craftsmanship and detailing
  • Excellent prices and value at all levels
  • Extra responsive customer service
