same , recruiting Sam Harnevious as an installation manager to help schedule the new line of work , renaming the business Yur Bath and Kitchen .
“ He ’ s a local guy and has a lifetime of experience in what we are trying to do ,” Bret said .
Bret , with the help of Harnevious , is currently updating the showroom to include an entire kitchen display to show what Yur Bath and Kitchen is capable of doing in homes today .
However , the kitchen display is causing Yur Bath and Kitchen to burst at the seams .
Yur Bath and Kitchen has only been at their current location for four years .
When they moved in , Bret recalled saying that he never believed they would be able to fill up a showroom of that size , but now with the kitchen expansion , he wonders if another move will soon be in the future .
As far as what comes next for Yur Bath and Kitchen and their ever-growing business , Bret said they are always watching the industry .
“ We are always watching for where the industry is going and what are the new trends ,” he said . “ We pride ourselves in adding those new options and trends to our service and being able to offer those to our community .”
Some of the trends Bret is currently seeing for both kitchens and bathrooms is to open them up and create an open living space .
“ Where you have a kitchen that may have a dividing wall between the kitchen and family room , the trend now is to take down that wall and create a kitchen and family room all in one ,” he explained . “ Same thing goes for the bathroom . For years the trend was to create a closed in shower , one that was almost a separate room within the bathroom , but now we are taking those walls down and creating a larger open space in the bathroom .”
Looking toward this upcoming year , Bret fully expects that to continue to be the trend and hopes this will be another record-breaking year for Yur Bath and Kitchen .
“ We are very pleased to say that we have set revenue records for the last 5-years in a row , even during the COVID era ” Bret said . “ Our company was perfectly situated to offer those services during that time , and this year we are on track to break those sales records again .”
