OUR HERITAGE

With over 40 years of experience, Woodmaster Kitchens is the top design firm in Southeastern Michigan offering kitchen and bathroom design and turnkey remodeling services. Kitchens and bathrooms are largely intangible products, comprised of hundreds of material components constructed on site according to a set of plans. Our role is to help our clients take their design ideas and translate it into a cohesive plan with the ideal products that help them achieve their vision.

OUR VALUES

  • We are committed to developing the best design for our clients according to their needs, space, and budgetary considerations, along with offering the highest quality and fairest value products.

  • We supply accurate and timely information at every stage of the design process, and endeavor to provide information that helps clients reach key decisions regarding their design and product choices.

  • We maintain the highest degree of professionalism by our exemplary conduct of business activities, the professional appearance of our staff and showroom, and the honest way we approach clients, fellow staff, and vendors.

 The Woodmaster Philosophy

Our philosophy is to organize ourselves with a division of labor, a series of defined systems and quality people. This allows us to provide greater attention to detail on every project, and thereby substantially reduces the risk of error in every step of our design process. At Woodmaster Kitchens we have assembled the best possible designers, craftsmen, and production staff to implement the installation of a project neatly and precisely with select products, enhancing the lives of our customers with a quality project completed on time.
