It’s Bigger Than Remodeling at KCBR

At KCBR Design Remodel, remodeling isn’t just about construction. It’s about building genuine relationships, creating opportunities, and delivering an experience where clients feel heard, supported, excited every step of the way, and love the outcome.

At its heart, Bigger than Remodeling means building lasting relationships and creating opportunities not only for clients, but also for team members, vendors, and the community. This philosophy shapes every choice the team makes, from the tools and technology they invest in to how projects are managed and communicated. By focusing all efforts and resources on the client experience, KCBR makes remodeling more transparent, less stressful, and ultimately more rewarding.



“We had an 84% increase in repeat and referral leads over the last six months, and we’re so grateful people trust us, enjoy the process, and want their friends and family to experience it too,” shared Abby Myers, the company’s Director of Business Development.

Ask Shelley Shipman, Director of Strategic Growth at KCBR, what sets them apart, and she’ll tell you straight up: “It’s bigger than remodeling, because that’s just the mechanism we use to build relationships with our clients and community.”

It’s not only about transforming spaces. It’s also about transforming how clients feel during the journey.



When Obstacles Arise (And They Occasionally Do)

Remodeling isn’t always perfect, but what matters most is how the team handles the unexpected.

“Remodeling is never linear,” Shipman explained. “Even with the best plan, unexpected challenges can occur. Where some contractors may dread these situations, we lean in and get excited about developing a resourceful solution.”

At KCBR, clients benefit from an entire team dedicated to problem solving. Project directors, designers, electricians, plumbers, skilled craftsmen, and production managers collaborate to troubleshoot and keep projects moving forward.

With clear communication tools like Buildertrend, clients always know what’s happening and why. Potential challenges become moments of reassurance instead of stress.



Culture Matters More Than You Think

A positive remodeling experience starts behind the scenes.

Everyone on the KCBR team shares a commitment to excellence and a genuine passion for their work. This shared mindset shapes every interaction, making clients feel supported and valued.

The company invests in ongoing training and the latest technology not just to be efficient, but to deliver a process that feels smooth, collaborative, and centered on each client’s unique vision.



A Thoughtful Showroom Experience

KCBR’s showroom was designed to simplify and personalize the selection process. By curating the showroom carefully, the team makes design choices easier and less overwhelming.

With most selections happening in one place, clients enjoy a more efficient, enjoyable experience guided by knowledgeable designers.



Remodeling Designed Around You

At its core, KCBR’s work is about more than design and construction. It’s about making each client feel confident, informed, and cared for from the first conversation to the final reveal.

By focusing on relationships, transparency, and a carefully crafted process, KCBR transforms what could feel daunting into something exciting and personal.

At KCBR, it’s about giving back while creating an experience clients remember, trust, and share.
