"Between the colorful fireplace flame selections and the adjacent backlit floating shelves, 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 luxury that can be appreciated throughout our main living space." - J & M
WHAT OUR CLIENTS THINK
"The employees of the Buckingham Group are consummate professionals. The outcome met all our expectations and then some. If you are planning a remodeling project or an addition, and if you have not already called Ed Kaplan and The Buckingham Group, then you should." - P & R
WHAT OUR CLIENTS THINK
"The master suite addition was the second phase of a total home remodel that The Buckingham Group designed and built for us. Its unique design, fulfilled our vision for a master suite and became the perfect place for starting our day and for relaxing and unwinding in the evening. The best recommendation that we can make is that once this project is completed we intend to have them totally remodel our lake home." - B & L
WHAT OUR CLIENTS THINK
"After spending several years living in Europe, we returned to Tulsa with an abundance of ideas that would align our diets and kitchen needs with the healthier cooking concepts that we had learned to enjoy abroad. We noticed a remodel being done in the neighborhood, visited with the Home Owner, who recommended we contact Ed Kaplan of The Buckingham Group. The results of the contact and the subsequent design created a kitchen that satisfied all of our requirements." - J & K
WHAT OUR CLIENTS THINK
"The Buckingham Group designed a new kitchen and family room for our home. Although we were impressed with the details presented during our initial meeting we were amazed at how they reconfigured the floor space. As an accomplished cook, Ed Kaplan brings not only expertise in design and construction to the table, but the ability to create a kitchen that works. The features that he incorporated into our kitchen make cooking a pleasure." - K & V
WHAT OUR CLIENTS THINK
"As impressed as we were with the design of the remodel, we were equally impressed with the execution. The care and consideration your employees showed throughout construction in not only their workmanship, but also in details such as cleaning up the job site every night, allowed us to live through the remodel with far less disruption. Your employees performed quality work and produced an end product to serve our needs into retirement." - B & J
WHAT OUR CLIENTS THINK
"We hardly recognize it as the place that we have lived in for so many years. I would also like to commend all of the people who worked on this project. They were not only skilled in their specialties, but also very pleasant to have around. I would not hesitate to recommend your services to anyone planning a remodeling job. We will certainly be back in touch with any future projects." - LJ & T
