Why Brett Cohen
Is The Expert

Brett Cohen is the Owner and CEO of Kitchen Saver, a leading kitchen cabinet renewal company headquartered in Owings Mills, Maryland. Under his leadership since 2013, Kitchen Saver has grown from a small family operation into one of the most recognized cabinet refacing and renewal brands in the Mid-Atlantic and beyond, serving homeowners across 13 states and Washington, D.C.

Brett's path to the home improvement industry was anything but conventional. Originally planning to become a rabbi, he was persuaded by his father-in-law Andy Snyder — Kitchen Saver's original founder in 1984 — to give the business a try. Brett started in the warehouse and worked his way through every department of the company. What was supposed to be a two-year experiment became a lifelong calling.

Since taking ownership, Brett has transformed Kitchen Saver into a metrics-driven, culture-first organization. He manages the business by the numbers, meticulously tracking performance from lead acquisition through the entire sales funnel to final delivery. At the same time, he has built a company culture centered on carefully selecting the right people and investing deeply in their development.

Kitchen Saver specializes in custom cabinet renewal — an upgraded approach to traditional cabinet refacing that can transform a kitchen in as little as 3-5 days at a fraction of the cost of a full remodel. The company has completed over 10,000 installations, maintains an A+ BBB rating, and has won the Angie's List Super Service Award for five consecutive years. All projects are installed by company-employed craftsmen — never subcontractors — and backed by a 10-year warranty.

Brett holds a Master's degree in Jewish Education and Administration from Baltimore Hebrew University and a Bachelor's degree in Arts, History, and Political Science from Washington University in St. Louis. He serves as a Board Member at Heartstone Retreat & Conference Center and Baltimore Hebrew Congregation.
