The Story Behind

NKY Kitchen Remodelers

What started as a couple of kids just trying to build a life together turned into something way bigger than either of us expected. We learned early on that we work best as a team — me on the tools, Maddie with the design brain that makes everything actually look good. Every project we touched together, whether it was our own house or a favor for family, kept turning out better than the last. Somewhere along the way, the people around us stopped saying “that looks nice” and started saying “you two should really be doing this for a living.” And, being the stubborn idiots we are, we went ahead and did exactly that.

But the truth is, this business didn’t grow out of wanting to run a company — it grew out of wanting to build a future. A future where we could raise our kids around hard work, creativity, and pride in what you make with your own hands. A future where Maddie could put her natural design instincts to work, and I could take something ordinary and turn it into something people can actually love living in. NKY Kitchen Remodelers is just the natural extension of who we are: a couple that can’t help building things together — whether that’s a home, a family, or a business that reflects all of it.

Who We Are

A small, family-run remodeling team serving NKY and Cincinnati. You get real communication, dependable scheduling, and people who treat your home with respect — not a revolving door of subs.

Our Mission

Give homeowners a kitchen they love without the chaos, pressure, or overpriced nonsense. Honest recommendations, solid craftsmanship, and work we’re proud to put our names on.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes. We’re fully licensed and insured in Kentucky and Ohio so your home, project, and peace of mind are protected from start to finish.

Who actually shows up to do the work?

We do. No random subcontractors and no revolving crews. The same small, tight-knit team handles your project from the first call to the final walk-through. Occasionally there are things we lean on partners for but you won't be surprised by that.

Do you offer free estimates?

Yep. Every project starts with a quick conversation and a walk-through of your existing kitchen. We’ll give you honest, practical options based on what actually makes sense for your space and budget.

What areas do you serve?

All of Northern Kentucky and the greater Cincinnati area. If you’re near the river, on either side, we’ve got you covered.

How do you help me decide between refacing and a full remodel?

We look at your cabinets, layout, and goals. If refacing makes sense, we’ll tell you. If a full remodel is the smarter choice, we’ll tell you that too. No pressure, no upselling — just honest guidance.
