First Place Wins: A Design-to-Build Triumph
For the fifth consecutive year, KBF has been voted First Place in the General Contractor category — a remarkable streak that underscores our commitment to excellence in every remodeling project we deliver.
Even more exciting, KBF also took First Place in the Interior Design category — a testament to our holistic approach that seamlessly blends beautiful aesthetics with thoughtful functionality.
“Being recognized as both the top General Contractor and top Interior Design firm in the same year is incredibly meaningful,” says Ashley Sheaffer, Co-Principal and leader of our sales and design teams. “It reflects how our integrated design-to-build process empowers clients with a cohesive vision from concept through completion.”
Strong Showing Across the Board
In addition to our first-place wins, KBF earned top-three recognition in several other key categories:
Second Place in Remodeling Company — celebrating our end-to-end project expertise.
Second Place in Kitchen Design Showroom — underscoring our showroom’s inspiration and utility.
Third Place in Cabinet Showroom — showcasing our curated cabinetry offerings.
“These accolades don’t just honor individual projects — they validate the strength of our team,” shares Adam Vellequette, Co-Principal and leader of the production team. “From our designers to our builders to our craftspeople, every part of KBF plays a role in giving clients the highest level of quality and service.”
Why These Wins Matter
At KBF, we do more than redesign homes — we reimagine lifestyles. As a true design-to-build firm, we handle every facet of the renovation process in-house, resulting in cohesive outcomes that feel intentional and effortless. Our Orlando Home Design Awards results reflect that commitment:
Leadership in both construction and design speaks to our integrated methodology.
Consistent recognition over five years highlights our long-term dedication to quality.
Top-tier placements in showroom categories emphasize our investment in client inspiration and experience.
