Kitchen Addition Built to Entertain | Design Build Planners

Dilemma: A family that loves to entertain with a kitchen that is way too small.

Solution: Kitchen addition and remodel. The project includes a rear addition off the existing kitchen and also behind the garage to create a laundry/mudroom. The exterior features casement windows, a masonry patio with stone knee wall, grill, lighting, and a retractable canvas awning. The kitchen displays the unfitted design where all the cabinetry does not match. The perimeter cabinets are stained and the tiered island is a white painted beadboard. The wood flooring is bamboo with a dark stain. The wet bar, with beverage center and dishwasher drawers, is situated on the opposite wall of the cooking area. The addition has a vaulted ceiling and a rear feature wall painted “scarlet red.” The owners, avid Rutgers University football fans, wanted a great space to watch the games, entertain and always be in season!

Special Note: This project was completed in 2009 and photographed in 2013 illustrating that it was also built to last and retain its great value!

The project design and development was by the Design Build Planners. The craftsmanship was by Mark of Excellence Remodeling a DBP Preferred Remodeler. The tile was from Best Tile.

Jason and Neil are always available to answer your questions, if you need them to see something you’re unhappy with they will be there as soon as they can. I feel like I'm the only one they are working with, because they are there when you need them to be. They treat you like a friend and family. It's very comforting.

When we called Design Build Planners, Jason took time away from his family and came on a Saturday. He was very knowledgeable and through and spent a few hours going over all our damage with us. He was very responsive to all our needs and we have recommended Design Build Planners to our neighbors.

As a design professional that has worked with the Design Build Planners for years, I can easily give a 5-star recommendation. They are the business of “customer service” which is rare in this day and age. Drawing together a complete group of experts to execute each job, they are on top of the project the whole step of the way. This last project was no exception!!

Over the years I have had the opportunity to get to know both Jason and Neil as co-workers and competitors. Their professionalism and integrity, as well as their product knowledge, are second to none. They have insight into design, cost and budget, and I have yet to hear of a dissatisfied customer. They remain a resource for me, and I look forward to working with them in the future on other projects.

I contacted Design Build Planners to schedule a consultation prior to making a home purchase to seek advice from a professional. I spoke with Jason Parsons, who really went out of his way to answer my questions, and research the potential issues I was facing with a renovation. After explaining my concerns, Jason quickly provided several solutions, and answered unforeseen questions.
