North Carolina Remodel


Last month was a really bad month around our house. The biggest problem we had was a leak in our kitchen. This wasn't just a little leak, this was a huge flood. Aside from a big messy cleanup, the cabinets and floors were pretty badly damaged. Insurance didn't cover nearly as much as we expected to, so we were lost as to how to get it back in working order. We didn't even really need to do an upgrade, we just wanted it to be fully functioning. We priced everything we needed at the home improvement store, but just the cabinets were over our budget, and that didn't even touch flooring.

One of our neighbors recently remodeled their kitchen and it was beautiful. They got everything replaced with top of the line materials. We couldn't spend all that much to get this done, but we also didn't want to be stuck with a lesser quality than we had to start with. We asked the neighbors who they used just to get the process started. They told us they got the whole room for less than the cabinet price we received at the home improvement store and all from one place. We called American Kitchen Corporation and learned they were right. The prices were fantastic and the product was high quality. Of course we asked them to get started right away so we could get back to normal. They were friendly and highly professional, keeping us informed every step of the way.

Now our neighbors aren't the only ones that got a renovation. I guess we got lucky with that leak because we ended up with exactly the kitchen we dreamed of but thought we would never afford. American Kitchen Corporation really helped us out of a bad situation and gave us a fresh new start.

Alamance North Carolina Remodel


My husband recently learned he got a job in another state. Since then we've been working really hard to get our house ready to sell so we can move. It's pretty important to be there as soon as possible so we've really been under the gun. I didn't realize how much work it needed to get the price we wanted to ask until we got started. Our budget was pretty much blown from the start. Little unexpected expenses just kept adding up. We really can't afford to take a loss on this house, but we can't afford to give it a full remodel and not recover the costs either. We know it will sell better if we use quality products and tasteful renovations, but I guess we got a little carried away. Before we knew it we were way over budget and still had a long way to go.

We knew the kitchen would be the biggest expense and the biggest selling point. With not much money to spare it looked pretty hopeless. One of our flooring contractors overheard what we were saying and recommended American Kitchen Corporation to fix our kitchen. I need to call him back and give him a bonus because they were a lifesaver! For a fraction of the cost we would have paid to just about anyone else we got a package that contained everything. We didn't have to sacrifice on quality to get that price because all the materials were top of the line. My granite countertops really made the house stand out from others for sale in the neighborhood.

I owe my flooring contractor and American Kitchen Corporation a big thank you. Our house ended up selling quickly and at the price we wanted. I have to admit I was a little sad though, the kitchen was so beautiful I didn't want to leave it behind.
