Kitchen and Bath Innovations

What Kitchen and Bath Innovations does

Kitchen and Bath Innovations (KBI) is a second-generation, family-owned residential kitchen and bathroom remodeling company headquartered at 8001 Beechmont Ave, Cincinnati, OH 45255. Founded in 1964 as W & H Plumbing and General Contracting, Inc., the firm was rebranded and repositioned to directly serve Cincinnati homeowners when Greg Gumbert inherited the business from his father Robert in 1993. KBI operates a 5,000 sq ft fully functional kitchen and bath showroom and runs an integrated sales motion comprising an in-home consultation, a showroom design presentation, and in-house installation performed by licensed, bonded, and insured employees (no subcontracting). The firm holds a BBB A+ accreditation and is led by Greg Gumbert (Master Plumber license, OCILB) with a design team that includes DAAP, University of Buffalo Architecture, and O'More College of Design credentials, plus dedicated installer crews.

The company's core offerings are full-service kitchen and bathroom remodeling projects, which bundle design, cabinetry, Cambria Quartz and granite countertops, plumbing, electrical, sinks, faucets, and custom tile work into a single 6-step engagement. It operates as a leading Cambria Quartz dealer and offers Cambria Finance (via EnerBank USA) for up to $55,000 in residential financing at a 16.89% fixed APR over 18-132 months. Customers are individual homeowners in the Greater Cincinnati area, including Anderson Township, and pricing is project-specific and quote-based. The company also operates a free Virtual Design Tool (design.k-binnovations.com/freedesignv2) for remote top-of-funnel engagement and supports content marketing via a blog and social media.

KBI is a privately held, family-controlled business with no disclosed institutional investors, parent company, or public funding rounds. Revenue is not publicly disclosed. Its headcount comprises approximately 9 named office/design staff plus lead and assistant installer positions, and the firm has recently added an Outside Sales & Design role and a Project & Design Assistant, signaling ongoing capacity build-out. The geographic footprint remains confined to the Greater Cincinnati region.

Broad incumbents

• Lowe's Installation Services: National big-box retailer providing kitchen and bath design, product, and installation services through in-store and contracted installers; broad incumbent alternative for cost-conscious Cincinnati remodel customers.
• Power Home Remodeling: Large multi-category exterior and interior home remodeler with significant marketing spend and regional service centers; broader incumbent that competes for Cincinnati homeowners' remodeling dollars though not kitchen/bath-exclusive.
• Home Depot Installation Services: Big-box home improvement retailer offering kitchen and bath design + installation services backed by national brand and financing; competes on convenience, financing, and price across the same Cincinnati-area homeowner segment.

Direct peers

• Re-Bath: National bath and kitchen remodeling franchise offering design-build services with in-house installers; directly comparable to KBI's full-service model but operating at national scale via franchisees versus KBI's single Cincinnati market.
• Bath Fitter: North American bath remodeling specialist with branded one-day acrylic liner and full-bath remodel offerings; competes for the same Cincinnati-area homeowners seeking bathroom renovations but differentiates on speed and product standardization.
• Kitchen Tune-Up: National kitchen remodeling franchise offering cabinet refacing, redooring, and full kitchen remodels; direct peer to KBI's kitchen renovation service with a similar design-led, customer-facing sales motion.
• DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen: Franchise design-build remodeler specializing in kitchens and bathrooms with full-service design-to-installation capabilities; closely mirrors KBI's one-stop, no-subcontracting model with regional franchise operations.

Emerging players

• Decorating Den Interiors: Interior design franchise with mobile consultations and showroom partnerships providing kitchen/bath design services; comparable to KBI on the design-and-specify front though it generally refers installation to third parties rather than self-performing.

Regional players

• Bell Kitchen & Bath Studios: Cincinnati-area kitchen and bath design-build firm offering cabinetry, countertops, and full remodels with a showroom; head-to-head local competitor to KBI in the same metro with comparable product-and-service model.
