Report
We hired IKB to remodel two bathrooms and were absolutely delighted with the superb results -- as well as their super gracious, friendly, and thoughtful approach and processes from start to finish! When we signed off on the final designs, they gave us a detailed project plan with a clear timeline and clear milestones then they met almost every milestone on time. When a challenging situation arose, they quickly circled multiple subcontractors back to the project to resolve the issue. When a surprise was uncovered, they gave us a reasonable estimate then quickly got the project back on track

I hired IKB to bring significantly more light into my 10 year old Tuscan styled kitchen and eating area.

The attention to detail and the professional handling of the project was really top notch. When problems arose, as they inevitably do in all construction, IKB was

Our latest and third project with IKB was completed during the COVID-19 pandemic.
IKB built a guest bathroom, (this house never had one before), a new master closet, and sliding barn doors added to our living room making it into an optional guest room, new overhead lighting, a fireplace insert, wooden floors refinished, a new roof, new solar, & a Tesla power wall. There were just so many pieces that had to fit together. This is where a real experienced contractor pays off. Once again our choice in using IKB was validated. Keith and Tyler, IKBs builders, the

IKB did a remodel project for us in the middle of some major family trauma. They were responsive, kind, and timely with work knowing we had personal challenges. Their staff and contractors were wonderful to work with and we are truly enjoying all the fruits of their labor in a home that works much better for us.
