NKBA Shows Rise in Revenue Since 2010

Filed under: Industry News — admin @ 2:18 pm

National Kitchen and Bath Association

The third-quarter, 2011 Kitchen and Bath Market Report from the National Kitchen & Bath Association (NKBA) was released this month revealing some encouraging news. The results indicated a rise in showroom traffic and an increase in kitchen remodels from one year ago. Bathroom remodels have declined since the second quarter but results show an overall increase from last year.

NKBA’s survey of NKBA dealers offers a promising outlook for fabricators in the coming year. It can only be predicted that kitchen and bath remodels will continue to prevail as the housing market struggles back to its feet. It’s common knowledge that homeowners are turning to home improvement rather than moving into a new home. It’s a perfect time for this industry to continually pursue new prospects and to get their name out there while the focus is on remodeling!

About the National Kitchen & Bath Association

The National Kitchen & Bath Association (NKBA) is a non-profit trade association with nearly 40,000 members that has educated and led the kitchen and bath industry for more than 45 years. To learn more, visit the NKBA Press Room or call 1-800-THE-NKBA (843-6522).

And Now, a Review From a Happy Duracite Customer!

Filed under: Customer Reviews — admin @ 3:07 pm

Once a week we like to post a note from a recent, happy customer of ours. This short note below is actually from a customer who was apprehensive about working with us due to a few negative reviews we’ve received online.  By the end of her experience, however, she said that she wanted to adopt each “young man” that she had the pleasure of meeting during the install at her home.

Unfortunately, we don’t have install photos for this job. But we can show you photos of the Sonora Gold Silestone Countertops that they had installed in their home. See Below

Christy
The counters are in and look great. I am very satisfied. The guys were so efficient and competent. They were polite friendly and most of all professional. It was such an easy process. Thank you so much for organizing it.
Well have wine and cheese to celebrate when the kitchen is all done.
