NYKB: Green is Good for the Kitchen

by erin on Friday, May 25th, 2007

NYKB, Manhattan’s kitchen and bath specialist is adopting ecological practices into their work.

In their recent press release they assure that they “do not equate ‘green’ with ‘customer sacrifice’ because there is a wide range of eco-alternatives. Companies like Caesarstone have terrific alternative, all-natural options and we are using them.”

NYKB is planning to incorporate more bamboo into their designs, as well as increase the energy efficient and water-saving appliances in their kitchens and baths.

If you live in the Manhattan area and are looking to renovate in green, you should check it out.

Crook Detective

NYKB is a ripoff operation, pure and simple. They do hideously bad renos (which are FAR, FAR from 'green' as they need to be redone--among other reasons) and charge extortionate prices for their many "scope changes" (one of their gouging m.o's). They've recently hired a PR guy, Ted Pratt, to do damage control on account of their well-deserved craptastic repuatation. STAY AWAY, New Yorkers!

NYKB are total rip off artists. The scopes/admendments are a method of gouging customers. They sell you a dream that they are unable to deliver

This is a fictional account of NYKB. They are crooks, on par with Bernie Madoff. You will never get a kitchen that is Green nor proffessionally done but you will pay for it big time. Run as far as you can. Anyone can write a Press Release. That doesn't mean it's True.
Be forewarned.

Totally agree with the posters above. DISASTER like you wouldn't believe. Our job was botched and abandoned. Aside from the safety issue posed by the electrical violations, THOUSANDS of dollars worth of tiles had to be ripped from floors and walls as the whole bathroom and the kitchen floor had to be redone. Paint needed to be redone. Ceiling replaced because it wasn't green board (and would grow mold). How is this amount of waste "Green" exactly? What a sick joke.
