SPONSORED CONTENT BUSINESS SPOTLIGHT SPONSORED CONTENT Premiers New Kitchen and Bath Showroom F or nearly four decades, Home Solutions has been a regional leader in home improvement contracting services. And, this winter, it is opening a kitchen and bathroom showroom in Castle Shannon to demonstrate to homeowners all that can be accomplished through its specialty division – Master Design Kitchens & Baths. Senior Designer Wesley Dixon, who has trained in England alongside Clive Christian (Europe’s top designer) as well as other notable names in design in New York, Philadelphia and Washington, D.C., said the showroom is the first of several that Home Solutions is bringing to the Pittsburgh area. “Each of our showrooms will have a theme, and this first one is geared toward traditional and decorative kitchens and bathrooms,” Dixon said. “There will be seven kitchen displays and three bathroom displays, along with a paneled den.” As an independent home renovation company, Home Solutions can source any materials or product lines that a homeowner could want. It primarily carries Plain & Fancy, the finest custom cabinetry available today, and Landmark semi-custom cabinets by Tedd Wood. Landmark offers a custom-look finish without custom pricing. With quality products and a team of professional designers at your disposal, Master Design Kitchens & Baths can create virtually any kitchen or bath that can be imagined, which is imperative because the role of kitchen and bath design has become highly stylized in recent years. “When I began 20 years ago, kitchen design was all about functionality, and it all worked around the work triangle,” Dixon 30 724.942.0940 TO ADVERTISE | Upper St. Clair said. “That was the only concern you had, and you designed within that. Today, kitchens are more for family, entertainment and social gatherings. Now, the functionality has changed, and instead of being geared solely toward cooking, it’s now more functionality of serving in a social gathering place. You now incorporate a lot of things into the kitchen that you didn’t in the past such as smart appliances, TV and Internet, more seating options and aesthetic appeal of the finishes on the cabinets and the design of the cabinets. All of that is now very important.” Home Solutions is unique in that it handles any project in-house from start to finish. There are no subcontractors to worry about; the company can do as little or as much of a project as a homeowner wishes, so the DIY’er who just wants design and cabinetry work will be just as at home as the homeowner who wants a completely hands-off project from beginning to end. Home Solutions offers in-house financing to keep projects affordable for all budgets, and sticks to a strict schedule because of the customized nature of the work. The average project begins 6 to 8 weeks after the completion of design work, and is completed within 4 to 6 weeks, depending on complexity.
