The Buckingham Group

After retiring, we consciously downsized from a large two story home with a basement and attic storage to a smaller one story 1953 ranch home in mid-town. We engaged Ed Kaplan of the Buckingham group for a two-phase remodel. The first phase included an update of the master bathroom and powder room, moving the laundry area from near the garage door to the master suite location, and reconfiguring the master closet space as well as the media room to include a small office. We agreed on the design plans and schedule. However, being an older home, problems in the guest bathroom shower as well as with the electric and roof were identified during the remodel. So a makeover of the guest bath, new roof and electric were added to the list of projects, all to be completed within the original project time frame of less than 4 months. We were very pleased with the work and proceeded to the second phase—a remodel of the kitchen. Ed’s passion for kitchen design was evident in the many features he included in the update, turning a somewhat awkward kitchen footprint into a modern and efficient layout with ample storage, a floor to ceiling spice rack area, dedicated breakfast prep area with built in coffee machine and appliance appropriate shelving. Having seen how we actually live in our home, he also proposed extra amenities, such as a dog feeding and shower area for our two messy Labs as well as an additional home office and exercise room. We are very happy with the results of our remodeling projects and have enjoyed working with Ed and his team at the Buckingham Group. All the work was accomplished to our complete satisfaction—Ed’s design, meticulous planning and attention to detail were wonderful. The craftsmanship of all the trades was top notch and we appreciate their post-completion check ins to ensure everything is working to our satisfaction. We can highly recommend The Buckingham Group.

The Buckingham Group did an outstanding job remodeling my bathroom and utility room. I was initially drawn to them by the strong referrals and excellent reviews they had received, and after meeting with Ed, I knew they were the right choice for the project. Their attention to detail during the planning phase was impressive, and the coordination among contractors was efficient and seamless. Given the age of my home, we encountered several unexpected challenges, but Ed handled them with professionalism—he even resolved a few unrelated issues that had existed in the home for years. From design and planning to demolition and reconstruction, the quality of their work was exceptional. The Buckingham Group never cut corners and clearly took great pride in both their craftsmanship and client satisfaction. I highly recommend The Buckingham Group to anyone seeking a remodeling company that does things the right way. You can trust them to deliver excellent results.

Our remodel is absolutely stunning. We are immersed each day in its calming beauty. The function of the kitchen layout is a dream with virtually endless counter top space and plenty of cabinetry available. I can stand in one spot and turn in a 360 degree range with the ability to access everything I need to prepare our meals. Functionality at its best is bringing enjoyment at its fullest. Our smoothie station with two Vitamix blenders and a fruit press offer open shelves for an easy reach for fresh fruit and then simply turn around where a cupboard with slide outs store our shake cups and daily vitamins. The living room, with its modern sophistication, draws us from the open kitchen to our lovely 60 inch electric fireplace surrounded by gorgeous quartzite stone. With the colorful fireplace flame selections and the backlit floating shelves adjacent, any mood setting can be achieved and enjoyed. Complementing those areas, our remodeled master bathroom is truly a spa experience upon waking and winding down each day. The Buckingham Group team has set our home apart with a luxury that can be appreciated throughout our main living space. Thank you to The Buckingham Group.

2020 -The Buckingham Group previously did a design build kitchen remodel for us that we were extremely happy with. As a result, of this experience, we didn't hesitate to use them again when we decided to re-construct our driveway and porch. Here are just a few things that separate them from everyone else: • A project 'Design' phase that covers the client’s requirements and the detail for project estimation costs. This is an important part of the process to ensure that both parties understand the scope of the project. • The use of high-quality subcontractors that deliver quality workmanship, attention to detail, and good communication skills. • Project management throughout the process to ensure that tasks are completed timely, in the right sequence, and within budget. • Progress payments based on completion of pre-defined milestones and client satisfaction. • Flexibility to modify the project plan when extenuating circumstances dictate or when driven by the client. In the end, Ed and The Buckingham Group delivered another exceptional project that exceeded our expectation, was completed on time, and within the quoted project cost. As a satisfied customer, we would highly recommend them to anyone that needs a worry-free experience! 2018 To whom it may concern, We first met Ed (owner of ‘The Buckingham Group’) at the Tulsa Home and Garden show but was concerned that he wouldn’t be interested in remodeling our small kitchen in Mid-Town. After visiting with him (in his booth), he convinced us that sometimes the smaller projects are some of the most rewarding. After an initial consultation, he provided a set of design plans that depicted “out of the box” innovation and creativity that maximized the space we had available. The company was very professional in all aspects of the project from the design phase to the sub-contractors. It was definitely quality through and through. The entire project was well planned and scheduled. The Buckingham Group is detail oriented, they’re diligent about doing things the “Right Way”, they use quality sub-contractors, and they demonstrated great communication throughout the project. From design conception to the finished project, everything was exceptional. In the end, the finished kitchen looked even better than we ever imagined it would look! My wife was overwhelmed with emotion when she saw how incredible the kitchen looked when the project was completed. She never thought she would ever have a kitchen that looked this nice. Ed and the Buckingham Group will definitely be our choice for any future renovation/remodeling projects. Sincerely, Sid & Monica Parker

Choosing The Buckingham Group for remodeling was one of the best decisions we have made. They transformed our home in a seamless, stress free, meticulously organized fashion. Until we worked with them, we never felt we were in control of the design, cost, or schedule. That all changed in a very positive and refreshing way as they demonstrated an unexpected level of professionalism that not only provided us with quality workmanship, but defined the scope of work, a fixed price, and a schedule for completion. As well as a five year workmanship warranty that really puts our minds at ease.
