My goodness, this is a beautiful kitchen … now.

From stock builder-grade condo space-wasting cabinets, Jessica the Amazing tossed out ideas and options until we had exactly what we were looking for: about 50% more cupboard space, clean and modern lines, with just enough design detail to be unique without being extreme.

With the exception of a couple of little finishes (we’re painting the whole unit in the new year, so we didn’t do the repainting at all, and the dishwasher came damaged) it was complete in just over 2 weeks, from demolition to electrical and plumbing finished.

My wife and I worked with Joy from Genesis Kitchens & Design after deciding that we wanted to renovate the main floor in our home (kitchen, powder room, living room). Initially, we didn’t know where to start because this was the first renovation that we’ve undertaken. We decided to visit a few cabinet companies and big box hardware stores to consider our options and get a better idea of what we were getting into. After meeting with some of the reps, I quickly realized that one of the most difficult tasks of the project was going to be finding a general contractor and organizing the schedule to ensure all of the project steps were completed on time.

Fearing that the project organization tasks might be too difficult for me to manage, I decided to start searching for a full-service company that was experienced and willing to organize my project to avoid costly delays. We decided to drop by the Genesis kitchens showroom after searching online for local companies.

From the moment we walked into the door and throughout the project, we knew we had made the right choice! Upon our first visit, Joy from Genesis kitchens helped to guide us with our design choices, connected us with an excellent general contractor, and helped to get us preferred rates for appliances kitchen/bath fixtures. In addition, she was available throughout the reno project to make design adjustments and respond to all of our questions and concerns.

We love our newly renovated kitchen and would definitely recommend Joy and Genesis Kitchens & Bath to anyone looking to undertake a major renovation in their home!!!

We worked with Joy at Genesis Kitchen and Design who offered very professional help and support all along the way. She tapped into our thoughts and accompanied us to see the cabinets on display resulting in a new kitchen which reflects our personal tastes and needs. Ian the contractor and all the sub trades he provided were a most efficient, courteous group. We would heartily recommend this company to all who are thinking of embarking on kitchen renovations.

Susan helped us design our new kitchen and 2 bathrooms. She was professional & guided us through every step of the way. We absolutely appreciated having someone so experienced on every level of the construction and design aspect of our project.
We could not be happier & would highly recommend them for any project you have.

Denise McIntosh, Owner of Genesis Kitchens, and her team of designers did an excellent job of designing our main kitchen and bathroom as well as a beautiful basement suite. Denise was genuinely interested in listening to our needs and helping us decide on the plan layout, choice of materials and colours, and she helped at every step with great ideas and solutions. Denise was very calm and patient with us and we never felt rushed to make a decision. Her insights and advice gave us confidence in our decisions. This was the first major renovation project for us and we couldn’t have been happier with the results.

Thank you Denise and everyone at Genesis Kitchens & Design!

Over the past few years we have had plans to renovate our 3 existing bathrooms in our 27-year old home to make them bright, stylish and spa-like. Earlier this year we contacted Denise at Genesis Kitchens and Design. We described our vision of the completed renovations and she and her team helped us clearly define the scope of the project and assisted with the installation of cabinetry work and countertops. We now have this project completed and are thrilled with the results! The Genesis Kitchens and Design team brings years of experience to the table and we look forward to working with them on future projects. In fact, our kitchen renovation project is now in its early stages and Genesis Kitchens and Design has been involved in this project as well since the onset. Finding the right partner is key on these home renovation projects and Denise’s team at Genesis Kitchens and Design has proven to be a great match.

Jessica at Genesis did a great job with all aspects of our kitchen remodel, from sourcing products to making sure jobs were done on time and properly. When we discovered a slight problem with a pull-out bin she kept trying to find a solution until it was solved, and she always kept us in the loop. The contractors and tradespeople they connected us with were professional and punctual. Everyone we worked with did a great job, and we’re very happy with the results!

We hired Genesis to help us with a complete kitchen renovation in our ‘90’s condo. They really listened and respected my ideas but then took the project to the next level. We are very happy with how it turned out! It’s functional and beautiful and has become a room that we actually want to hang out it. I would definitely recommend Genesis to anyone who like me wants to be involved but have the designer insight and resources. There’s no way I could have achieved the end result without them!

I found Jessica Rank and her colleagues to be knowledgeable, attentive and professional. Jessica was always prepared with a “plan B” when things didn’t go exactly as planned. She demonstrated an enthusiasm and excitement as if it were her own home being renovated. It was a pleasure to work with her and the final results are better than I had expected. I highly recommend GenesisKitchen and Design.

We chose Genesis Kitchens and Designs to renovate our kitchen. Denise and her team were fantastic to work with and surpassed our expectations. We now have our dream kitchen

My husband and i decided to renovate our kitchen and we were feeling overwhelmed after talking to a couple different contractors….then I was referred to Genesis by a friend….it became alot easier and not as overwhelming because they supported us all the way through.. I am thankful for their professionalism and expertise! And we love our kitchen!!! Could not be happier!!

Susan is very aware of a clients needs and tastes – she listened to me and provided exactly what I wanted! Everything was as promised.

The staff at Genesis Kitchens & Designs were extremely polite, caring and supportive with the renovations of my kitchen and master bathroom. Susan was very patient and kindly with me as I tried to comprehend what seemed to be an overwhelming task. In her absence Nicole came forth with her creativity, suggestions and foresight with the floor and wall tiling. Susan worked harmoniously with my contractor, whom I also hired through Genesis. I would strongly recommend Genesis for anybody looking for a company that is knowledgeable, professional and knows how to treat their clients with respect.

We are very happy with the design and the personalized service we received from Genesis Kitchens. Not only are we thrilled with the way our kitchen looks, we love how well it functions – our kitchen looks stunning, flows beautifully and is a pleasure to cook in. Denise and her team listened to our ideas and guided our design decisions, providing lots of choice and suggestions, all the while working within our budget. Her knowledgeable team was very professional and provided personalized service. We would highly recommend Genesis Kitchens.

I was unfortunate enough to have a water leak that destroyed my kitchen and wasn’t covered under insurance. However, I found Paula from Genesis and she was amazing. She turned my nightmare into my dream kitchen. From concept to final install everything went like clock work. Paula asked me all the questions I hadn’t thought about like what items are you storing in the kitchen like crockpot or mixers. Making sure my design would handle my needs and be on budget. Jamie her installer was a dream trades person. Left my home cleaner than he found it, was on time and schedule… I wouldn’t want anyone else working on any home I renovate in the future and look forward to calling on Paula for help with my bathroom and laundry room.

We did the major renovation in our 22 year old house from Jan. till May, 2015.

Denise McIntosh, Owner/ Kitchen Designer, helped us design our new kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a powder room. She was easy to work with, professional, and creative.

We’re very happy with the transformation of our house that was completed on time and I’d certainly recommend Denise and her team for any kitchen/ bathroom reno.

Working with Joy to design our new kitchen was fantastic. She developed a design taking both input from my wife and I and drawing from her own experience. She was professional and very courteous, taking the time to explain the process and timelines along the way. Joy made all the difference by offering suggestions, while considering the ideas we provided. Our kitchen was completed on time and on budget. We have received many compliments on our new kitchen from friends and family and of course we enjoy it very much ourselves. I highly recommend Genesis and Joy for anyone considering a new or major kitchen renovation.

We can’t say enough about Genesis Kitchens & Design. Our kitchen was stuck in the 90’s. Our designer Jessica, listened to all of our suggestions and ideas and she designed our dream kitchen. Her knowledge, professionalism, and attention to detail were excellent! Barstra Construction and Home Renovation Ltd. was our contractor, who came highly recommended from Genesis. Their quality of work was top notch! Thank you both for giving us the exactly what we wanted in a kitchen and in a timely manner. We couldn’t be happier!

I was referred to Genesis through a supplier and was directed to Susan Joyce and am so glad I was. From the first site visit I could tell Susan had a vision and was very passionate about her job. Susan was always prompt and efficient during our project and didn’t skim over any small details. Everything had to be perfection. Over the course of our renovation I really got to know Susan, as well as the rest of the team at Genesis. They were all overly courteous and made my kitchen renovation such a fun experience. Our kitchen came out perfect. I wouldn’t change one detail. It is now a place where we spend all our time with friends and family and I owe it all to Susan and the Genesis team. I always recommend them and very much look forward to our next project together!

Thank you so very much for the help and expertise you provided during our kitchen renovation. Your enthusiasm made this huge project exciting, and the result is stunning. The wonderful craftsmanship of Nickels cabinets, the care and respect shown to my home by the installers and yourselves– Genesis Kitchens, as well as the superb work of reg Harder—you’ve created a beautiful space in my home and it has enhanced the feel and versatility of the entire house. I love my kitchen.

Worked with Denise from Genesis after a recommendation from a friend. My husband just retired after a long career as a marine master. I wanted our kitchen renovation to reflect our mutual love of local west coast waters (we’re in Vancouver, BC) and Genesis more than delivered! I new exactly how I wanted the kitchen to make me FEEL but had a hard time defining what that would exactly look like. Enter Denise – who’s greatest skill may be interpreting my vague criteria into exactly what I wanted but couldn’t actually describe. I originally described my vision as “West Coast nautical” and yet somehow Denise knew exactly what I meant. First thing was a change of kitchen layout that I hadn’t even considered but now cant imagine otherwise. All the other suggestions from Denise and her team on finishes and details were brilliant. In the end we truly couldn’t be happier with the functionality and the look – and there is no way we could have got the perfect result without Denise and the Genesis Kitchens team!
