     Haines Contracting Inc. was presented the coveted COTY (Contractor of the Year) Award in the catagory of "Residential Kitchens over $100,000" by the Bucks Mont NARI (National Association of the Remodeling Industry.

    According to Dave Haines, President of Haines Contracting Inc., "the project consisted of a 2 year old house in Warrington, PA where the owners just didn't have enough space to entertain their family & friends. The back wall of the kitchen & dining room where bumped out 8' & the partition between the dining room and kitchen were removed. This gave us a whole lot more space to create a better functioning kitchen for our client."

    "Since the house was only 2 years old we were able to reuse 80% of the cabinets and counter tops in the new design. This way nothing went to waste" said Haines.To see more of the award winning project, visit www.hainescontracting.com on the web.
