HM Imperial Kitchen and Baths

60 Years of Design and Remodeling Excellence

When Claire and Jim bought their home in the western suburbs, they saw a diamond in the rough.  Past renovations had solved immediate needs for the home but missed out on honoring the home’s architectural spirit.  When the couple was ready to create the kitchen they always envisioned, they turned to Imperial Kitchens and Baths, Inc., a local, family-owned design and remodeling firm known for its artisanship, design intelligence, and genuine personal care.

Since 1966, Imperial has earned the trust of homeowners seeking spaces that are timeless and deeply personal.  Their process is built on clarity and collaboration.  Home renovation is about how people live and gather, it’s about the rhythm of their home each day.  Claire and Jim’s conversations with Imperial translated into thoughtful, functional plans that elevated both the architecture and the homeowners’ daily living.

In Claire and Jim’s home, the breakfast area was clearly an addition from years past and felt disconnected from the kitchen.  Imperial’s team created a streamlined, cohesive space that feels brighter and authentically original to the 1890’s home.

Imperial’s team guided the project seamlessly from concept to completion, handling every detail from product selection to installation and quality control.  This integrated approach removed the stress typically associated with remodeling, allowing Claire and Jim to stay connected to the excitement of their kitchen’s transformation.

Imperial’s expertise extends beyond aesthetics. With an in-house shop and decades of technical craftsmanship, the team is uniquely equipped to solve the challenges older homes present – whether it’s custom cabinetry, unusual dimensions, and structural quirks that require thoughtful engineering.

For repeat clients like Claire and Jim, Imperial is a trusted partner dedicated to creating beautiful spaces with care for everyone involved.  Their long-standing relationships with clients, employees, trade partners, and the community reflect an unwavering standard of integrity and excellence.  It’s this foundation of trust that Imperial continues to cultivate, as they enter their next 60 years of service.
