Patty never dreamed that she would be the managing officer of a small business until 2003 when she was called upon to take off her domestic hat of 28 years and jump in with both feet to manage their DreamMaker franchise. It was evident early on that her administration skills that she had honed as a homemaker, her leadership skills that she had developed since childhood, and her love for people and hospitality would be just what she needed to lead a local and national award winning franchise company.
“At first it was difficult to change roles, but once I understood my purpose as a businesswoman, I found “home” once again. DreamMaker has been an open door to new relationships and opportunities beyond what I could have hoped for. I love interacting with our customers, hearing what their dream is and seeing that dream become reality. I am grateful that God has positioned me as a businesswoman in Kern County to enhance lives and improve homes.”

Even though the owners are actively working in the company, Everett and Patty feel that their greatest asset is their team from the sales department through to production. "Each member has been blessed with special gifts that they use to actively serve each other and their clients. Their sense of loyalty to the company, and their willingness to accept responsibility for their own positions is what propels our reputation. We don't have a group of "worker bees" but rather a group that loves what they do and calls this company home. We are very grateful for being able to attract strong people to our team." says Patty Gray

From our first meeting they treated us great.

DreamMaker remodeled both of our bathrooms and they are beautiful. They are not the cheapest, but they are the best. No hidden costs, job was finished on time, workers were always courteous and considerate, and everything was worth it.

I needed to remodel my home. I realized the importance of making my new bathroom accessible as I get older. I love the large shower and solid bench. The shower heads are easily adaptable to different heights. I love it!

Attention to the smallest detail made all the difference. Everything was coming together beautifully as the remodel neared the final stages with a gorgeous, white walk-in shower and navy cabinets, yet something didn’t feel quite right. DreamMaker Project Supervisor Tommy Moody was observant and made the decision to paint the black frames of our original windows to white to match our other style choices. This small decision immediately brought a unified, up-to-date look to all of the other design decisions. This level of care and professional service was shown throughout our entire experience with DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen.

We are so happy and excited that our kitchen was finally done. It turned out exactly how we envisioned it and was made even more special by all the advise at the Dreammakers but especially Victor who was our one person construction company. He went out of his way to not only make sure we got a very quality job but more importantly, he went above and beyond. He used his experience to give us advice to improve on our original thoughts.

Recognized Excellence - Victor was by far our most invaluable person. He took some shoddy shelves that we had bought separately as a cost saving measure and thought we were not going to be able to use them but he took them home and converted them to works of art that are proudly on our walls now. His attention to detail and top quality workmanship made the difference for us.

We were very pleased with DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen.The contractor that came out was very thorugh and every little detail that I wanted to know, he was willing to share with me. I thought that he took his time, but one thing that was important for him was to do a very good job and that I really liked!

Working with the staff at DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen was a wonderful experience. Hal and Tommy were very courteous and professional project foreman and project manager, respectively. All of the workers were courteous and conscientious in cleaning the work site daily. Stevie worked hard to insure the materials were ordered and arrived in a timely manner and she answered any questions or concerns in a prompt, informed and courteous manner. Sharlene was an amazing designer and was very helpful in coordinating ideas and materials to achieve our desired finished project. Everett and Patty maintain an honest and forthright business with superb staff members and sub-contractors. DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen was a great choice for remodeling our bathrooms!
