Review Title: Ivy Kitchen & Bath [ View All Reviews ]

We recently completed a basic one-for-one renovation of our kitchen and would like to give two big thumbs up to Sherida, Alan, Harold and the staff of Ivy Kitchen and Bath (408-441-1858). This small but very impressive business is located at 671 East Brokaw Road in San Jose, on the north side of Brokaw and about half a mile west of I-880. Visit their website at www.ivybs.com.

We initially saw their advertisement in the Mercury News and IKB was the best of four places we contacted, coming in at a reasonable mid-range price and setting up a realistic schedule.

Tear out of the old material started on a Wednesday and the job was completed to our complete satisfaction in only eight calendar days. Phenomenal!!

Throughout the process, all the workers were prompt, competent, courteous, and cleaned up after themselves at the end of each working day.

We were on the hook to buy a faucet of our liking and although Home Depot/Expo Design and Lowe’s had a lot of items to choose from, we actually ended up purchasing our faucet from the small (and almost obscure) Plumbing Gallery at 3155A S. Bascom Ave (southwest corner of Bascom and Hillsdale) in Campbell. Very knowledgeable folks, personal service, good prices, and you don’t get lost in a warehouse. If you don’t know anything about plumbing fixtures, this is the place for you.

As part of the kitchen work, we also had a new linoleum floor put in by Royal Carpet & More. They’ve done previous work for us, so please check out the separate positive review for them.

All in all, our experience with Ivy Kitchen and Bath had everything go right and we’d like to give them the strongest positive recommendation.
