TS Kitchen

Traian has transformed our cluttered 1980’s condo kitchen into a spacious and modern culinary space! In our initial meeting he was friendly and approachable. We felt comfortable with him and based on his great reviews on Homestars, we went with him right away. We had some ideas in our design and he provided great suggestions that enhanced the design. We had our kitchen gutted by another contractor then Traian installed the wall cabinets; cabinets around the fridge, dishwasher, slide-stove; a large island, and sink cabinets. He used the same IKEA panels and created some custom cabinets to get everything to fit. Traian’s tools were advanced and impressive and allows him to quickly build and customize solid and high quality cabinets. Traian has a great eye for detail and takes pride in his work. His work exceeded our expectations. He is very reliable, responsive to phone calls and emails, and gives excellent customer service. We love our new kitchen and it has been more enjoyable to cook, dine, and entertain guests. I would recommend Traian to all our friends and family. Thanks Traian!

We had a some posts that needed to be framed in after our new lobby flooring had been installed. Traian did a great job and was very professional to deal with. His work looks excellent and I would recommend his services to anyone.

When my husband and I purchased our home, we knew that we would be doing a full kitchen reno immediately using Ikea cabinets.

After we had completed our design and ordered the cabinets, I went onto Homestars and found TS Kitchen Projects. After an exchange of emails, we arranged to meet Traian to review our plan. Our initial meeting was 3 hours in which he offered many suggestions to improve the functionality of the kitchen, which we implemented and are glad we did.

His knowledge of the product is phenomenal, and he offers creative workable solutions for any challenging area, of which we had a few!
Traian’s attention to detail and pride in his work is unmatched, and obvious in the result. As we were living through the reno, the fact that he left the work area clean each day was a big help.

We also purchased LED undercabinet lighting and hardware through Traian, and the quality and cost of both are excellent.

Our kitchen is stunning, and we are thrilled with it. Traian offers excellent customer service, is very personable and has eclectic taste in music! We would highly recommend TS Kitchen Projects for any job, big or small.

We had Traian install our cabinets and lighting in our new kitchen and we were presently impressed with his skills and professionalism.

Traian made our Ikea cabinets look more like a custom job with his strategic placement of our cabinets. Our kitchen now not only looks good, but is also functional to the point where our appliances and utensils are organized and cooking is simpler and more efficient.

He was clear about our options and always had suggestions that would benefit our set up, all keeping within our budget.

I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to renovate their kitchen.

Traian is exceptional when it comes to kitchen installations. We bought and Ikea kitchen and PEG did not give us very much comfort. I thought I was going to have my most frustrating experience with Ikea (and that says a lot), but Traian made it too easy. He actually drove me to Ikea after we found I bought some of the wrong cabinet sizes, and he proceeded to walk me through exactly what I needed, then went on to install my new kitchen with the highest of quality. Not a single thing wrong with his work. I was scared, but Traian removed my fears, and now I'm even able to walk back into an Ikea store without having a breakdown. Thanks Traian!!

My Kitchen project was a challenging one in that the space was very small, was on a very tight budget and the 75 year old home had many limitations. With Trian's many years of experience; I felt confident that the utilization of space and the quality of products would be perfect. In addition, creating a more contemporary/traditional design with a wow factor that would look absolutely amazing was accomplished on time and on budget !

Trian is a person to be trusted, he's honest, creative and dedicated. Always current and up-to-date with the latest products and designs and will make sure that his clients are number one with the utmost respect !

Highly recommend Trian !

After deciding to purchase an Ikea kitchen, Dale and I researched carpenters and kitchen installers on the homestars website. TS Kitchen Projects stood out.
TS Kitchen Projects specializes in customizing Ikea kitchens, and this is the kind of expertise we felt would be most beneficial to our project.
We met with Traian, the owner, to discuss our kitchen renovation project after reading reviews posted by his clients. All of the reviews were very positive, and after meeting with the man himself we felt it was a good match.
Traian was friendly and established a good rapport with both myself and Dale. After listening to him speak about previous projects and tricks of the trade we felt comfortable leaving our project in his, as it turned out, very capable hands.
Our kitchen presented several big challenges, namely an electrical panel that could not be moved and threatened to throw off the balance of the entire kitchen. Traian took this in stride, and I couldn't be more pleased with the solutions he proposed.
The kitchen turned out beautifully - Traian made suggestions based on his experience and reviewed different options with me on a near daily basis. Though bringing me into a dialogue on the different options open to us slowed down the job, I was thrilled to be working with a tradesperson whose main focus was his client's satisfaction. I wish more tradespeople operated this way.
It was a pleasure working with Traian on this project. I would recommend him to anyone considering installing anything Ikea. I have recommended him to my parents who are interested in having custom wardrobes installed as well as my employer for one of his upcoming projects.
Traian also brokers quality hardware, cutting edge led lighting systems and tile. I have ordered some led lights and am looking forward to having them installed in the very near future.
Thank you for the beautiful kitchen Traian - I wish you all the best!

After an outrageous quote from a certain store's installation service, I contacted Traian. He responded to my request promptly, reviewed my kitchen plan, and provided me with a very fair quote.

I had used the IKEA Kitchen Planner software, consulted with their Kitchen Department staff and placed my order before having contacted TS. He noted a few issues with my plan, and provided cost-effective solutions resolve these issues. He showed up on time, stayed on schedule, used very professional tools, communicated his progress frequently, left no mess behind, and most importantly, took great pride in his work. His knowledge of IKEA kitchen products is comprehensive (don't trust IKEA's listed measurements!), and as a guy, he's very personable. I wish every contractor experience was like this.

Needless to say, I am completely satisfied with his work, and would recommend him to anyone.

I have an old house, crooked walls, sloped floors, with a small kitchen space. Traian was able to quickly figure out a better layout than I had come up with. He is also GREAT at modifying IKEA cabinetry to fit your space. I was short a couple of inches for a corner base cabinet, which was also to accommodate a sink. He sized the cabinet down to fit my space, also modifying the door in the process. He is very picky in his work, with an extremely high attention to detail. Traian also came back several times, without complaint, when it turned out that IKEA had given me the wrong components and he couldn't do the entire job in one day as a result. EXCELLENT workmanship (and his high-end German tool collection will make you drool....)

Installed ikea cabinets and made them look custom. He was a pleasure to work with, knowledgeable, meticulous in his measuring. He had suggestions on how to improve our cabinet layout and even help solve some minor issues. would call him again and have already recommended him to friends. thanks again for the excellent job.
