Bathroom and Kitchen Remodeling in New Bern
Creative Spaces New Bern has been delivering bathroom remodeling and kitchen transformations for over 20 years, and if you want to talk through your project, Scott and Chris are the ones who pick up the phone. No call center, no project manager buffer. Just the people who will actually do the work.
We serve homeowners throughout Taberna, Carolina Colours, Neuse Harbor, Trent Woods, Greenbrier, and the surrounding Craven County communities. Whether you're converting a dated tub to a walk-in tiled shower or refreshing a kitchen with new cabinetry and countertops, we bring architectural discipline and two decades of hands-on experience to every decision.
We keep the scope honest, the timeline clear, and the final result exactly what we agreed on at the start.
What We Do
Every Service We Offer
Bathroom and kitchen work from start to finish, all under one roof, all handled personally.
01
Bathroom Remodeling
Full-scope bathroom remodels, layout changes, tile work, vanity and fixture replacement, and everything in between.
02
Kitchen Design & Remodeling
From layout planning through cabinet installation, countertop replacement, and fixture upgrades, full kitchen remodels that reflect your household's real needs.
03
Kitchen Upgrades
Not every kitchen needs a full tear-out. We handle targeted upgrades, cabinet refacing, new countertops, lighting upgrades, fixture swaps, that make an immediate difference.
Professional. Reliable. Meticulous.
Twenty years of remodeling taught us what homeowners actually need, and it starts well before the first tile is set.
- 01
Clear Communication
We ask the right questions up front, about how you use the space, what you've tried before, and what matters most. Every decision gets confirmed before work begins.
- 02
Personal Presence
Scott and Chris are on every project from the first conversation through the final walkthrough. No subcontractors, no handoffs.
- 03
No Surprises
Consistent timelines, honest scope, and results that match what we agreed on. If something changes, you hear it from us first, not after the fact.

James BehlMar 2026 · GoogleThey did a full kitchen remodel for us. We have never worked with a company this great. Scott and Chris actually showed up every day around 8:00am. Very short morning coffee breaks and barely a half hour for lunch. Their attention to detail was unbelievable. Great work ethic which is rare in today's world. The outcome of the job was well worth what we paid. They were an absolute pleasure to work with and most of all our German Shepherd loved them. We highly recommend doing business with them, you won't be disappointed.
