HGTV's "Bang for Your Buck," featuring a Synergy Kitchen Renovation
Synergy Design & Construction Kitchen Praised on HGTV
"Hands down my favorite! This is a hip kitchen – beautiful cabinetry and gorgeous, gorgeous countertops... and the floor, you have to touch it!" This was how HGTV design expert Monica Pederson described our kitchen during this episode of HGTV's "Bang For Your Buck."
The kitchen competed against two other row house renovations in Washington, D.C. While in the end it didn't nab the top spot, our kitchen came in at a close number two and was clearly the designer's first choice. "I would much rather have this kitchen, featuring a smaller space surrounded by beautiful things," said Pederson. Our kitchen is the 3rd one reviewed on the show, featuring faux-wood, heated ceramic tile and a gorgeous glass backsplash. These showpieces helped deem it a great investment choice, with an estimated 92% return on the homeowners' investment."
