"Thank you Tom for a wonderful job that you guys have done and the help throughout! Both Annette and I are in love with our new kitchen! We have had an excellent experience with you guys and look forward to working with you again in the future (although not in the kitchen, haha)!"

"Jorge, my friend! Has anyone told you lately how talented you are? What an unbelievable transformation! It is more beautiful than I imagined it would be."
See you soon, Anna and Lorenzo.

"Everything here is WONDERFUL! I love it. Thank you so much!"

"We had the pleasure of working as a team on an apartment renovation project that involved joining two existing co-op apartments in a landmark context. Mr. Krauss and his company are able to handle most professionally any and all aspects of a scope of work as the 2,250 sq. ft. involved in this project..."
Dr. Livio D (architect)

"It is not often that I meet someone in your business with such integrity." Marsha H (corporate VP)

"It was a pleasure meeting you today and reviewing the exceptional workmanship you represent. I was impressed with your ability to accommodate different price ranges without sacrificing any attention to detail."
Kris K (real estate broker)

"We would like to take this opportunity to convey our pleasure in working with you and everyone associated with Crafted Home NY.

During our recent condo renovation at The Link (from September 2010 through January of 2011), your company showed diligence and dedication to finish our project in a timely manner. Over the five months of design through construction you clearly demonstrated an understanding that completing the project on time was very important to us and had direct impact on our quality of life with a small infant.

Your attention to the specifics of the design and construction as well as proper scheduling was remarkable and resulted in a job well done. We also very much appreciated your continuous approach to working with us on the big and small elements of the design and décor. Collaborating with both you and Jorge on these facets was an absolute delight and we appreciated the attention to timing and detail provided by Jesse and Antoine.

Again, we would like to express our gratitude and delight with your work to make our new construction condo a place that we now love to call our home. We would not hesitate to recommend and refer Crafted Home NY to other friends and acquaintances that are also in need of quality services from a firm such as yours.

We hope that this will be the start of our continuous relationship and future success."

Sincerely, William, Rachel and Jameson.

"I have renovated apartments four times in Manhattan and worked with a variety of contractors, none of which compare to Crafted Home & Kitchen.

Tom and his team are completely trustworthy, honest and transparent, which I cannot say for any of the previous contractors I have worked with.

Furthermore, the quality of their workmanship is top notch while being very cost competitive. Our renovation included the combination of two apartments on separate floors, which presented some construction challenges, which Tom and his team overcame without any issues. The estimates they provided on timing and cost always proved accurate - meaning no delays or cost over-runs.

It is without reservation that I would recommend working with Crafted Home & Kitchen."

Michael (public relations executive)

"Just came back from visiting my husband's family for Thanksgiving and we are still oohing and aahing and chatting about our kitchen redo. Every single day John and I comment to each other how much we love the new kitchen.

Every time we slice apples or make chili, and most especially, every time we load the magnificent dishwasher, we feel lucky! The craftsmanship is excellent and I can tell it's going to hold up gorgeously against years of our energetic use.

Choosing Crafted Kitchen is one of the best decisions I've ever made ... right up there with choosing the apartment, and saying yes to John's marriage proposal. This year was just terrific -- completely transformative -- and I wanted to let you know you and your company played a large role in that!"

Erica

"I wanted to tell you again just how pleased I am so far. The super and the doorman all have very nice things to say about the work team and I absolutely love the floor. I woke up early this morning to see what it looks like in the morning light."

"I highly recommend Crafted Home NY to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy contractor who delivers quality workmanship. I couldn't be happier!

I had my kitchen renovated a few months ago and had a wonderful experience with Crafted Home NY. From the beginning, they patiently explained all of my options and walked me through the process. When work finally started, their crew was reliable and always available for me. The work was done quickly and neatly and I am so happy with the results! Even afterwards, when I had some trouble with my refrigerator, their project manager took the time to be there when the appliance was replaced so I didn't have to miss work. I couldn't have asked for anything more."

Sona H.

"We moved in on Friday and we opened a lot of the kitchen over the weekend. I have to thank you for everything about the design. It is so much better than I appreciated when we were designing it and all the things that you thought of in terms of the cabinets - where the microwave goes, where to put all the cooking sheets and trays - it's so incredibly well thought-out! I am so excited to use the kitchen; it looks amazing and I really appreciate all your help with it. I know that I wouldn't have had any type of kitchen like this if it hadn't been for your ideas. So, thank you very much!"
Pamela K.

"I am very excited about the progress since the counter was installed on Friday. I absolutely love it. I spent most of the time I was at home over the weekend just sitting in there. It is truly gorgeous and you and your team have done an excellent job. Look forward to speaking with you about the bathroom and living room tonight."
Peter S (condo owner)

At the Beginning--
Gary and I made our final decision about the kitchen renovation and we would like to work with you. We love your kitchen design--by far the most creative of the estimates we got.
At the End--
Tom, here is the final payment. Kitchen looks great! Thanks for making this fairly easy. Jesse is great!
Veronica L.

"The Crafted Kitchen teams are complete professionals, and Tom is a true gentleman in all of his dealings. The superintendent of my building was very pleased by how respectful they were of the building and the other residents. They kept the area clean and minimized noise during times when residents would be home. I used to go out and eat most of the time, but with my recently renovated kitchen I eat in most of the time; it has made my life easier, and entertaining a dream. The final product was better than I expected." 5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended.
Michael S (co-op owner)

I did a gut renovation of my kitchen and bathroom with Tom Krauss and his team at Crafted Kitchen. In the past, I have had work done in my apartment and have literally been in tears out of frustration. I interviewed several contractors, but chose Crafted Kitchen for many reasons: "They do their job by educating me." "I am respected and included in every decision." "They're always available to me." "They answer every one of my stupid questions...thoroughly." "They're completely professional, organized and punctual." "They're extremely knowledgeable, trustworthy, highly skilled and experienced." "I tell them my objective and they give me great advice to achieve those goals." "They can handle my coop board (which is no small feat)." During the work on my apartment I've checked on the progress a few times. Upon entering the building, there was absolutely no evidence that work was being done. The lobby was neat and clean. When I opened the apartment door, I almost fell over. Everything that was not being worked on was sealed off to avoid dust. There were no piles of tools lying around. Everything was neatly organized. They had a certain respect for my home and personal items. 5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended.

Pros: They're extremely knowledgeable, trustworthy, highly skilled and experienced.

Cons: I wish that I had found them sooner.

"I have just completed the second project performed by The Crafted Kitchen. As on the first project, I am very pleased with the professionalism and attention to detail of Tom and his team. They were sensitive to the inconvenience of renovation work and completed the project on budget and in a timely manner."
Phil S. (co-op owner)

"I have heard from Hervé that the walls are looking so wonderful; he is completely mesmerized by it! Judith [the architect] is also very impressed with you and your work, and most of all with your kindness and integrity."
Mari K (co-op owner)
