### Reviews

**★★★★★ — Maria Kenney, Jan. 2020**

> Tom and his crew were the consummate professionals -- friendly, careful, and providing an excellent product. Tom worked with me to finalize the design for both my kitchen cabinets and my custom built-in bookcase, and was concerned with my comments and suggestions.
>
> When my friend walked into my new home for the first time, she asked, "Did you buy this house just for that gorgeous built-in bookcase?" That pretty much says it all.

**★★★★★ — Audrey McIntosh, July 2019**

> Working with Tom and his team was an exceptional experience! From design, finishes to installation, we couldn't be more pleased. Highly recommend!

**★★★★★ — Will & Kim Turkington, June 2019**

> We are so pleased with our kitchen cabinets built and installed by Thomas Ricci Custom Cabinetry.  Our house is about 120 years old, with walls out of plumb and other interesting oddities.  But they made all the necessary adjustments, and the result is beautiful!  They also came back to make a couple of adjustments that we asked for.  Tom and his crew were fabulous to work with.  Highly recommended!

**★★★★★ — Mary Chase, July 2018**

> Tom was great about listening to what we wanted and figuring out how to do it! The cabinets are beautiful and the quality is extraordinary!! He gave us a sample of the glaze before doing it so we could customize it. He was unhurried and spent time helping us see what the finished product would be like.

**★★★★★ — Jordan Reeves, June 2018**

> Tom was very professional and easy to work with. He made no issue of my design changes throughout the project. I wanted high-end cabinets and countertops and he delivered! His cabinetry is simply beautiful and competitively priced (I believe better than other custom cabinetry in Lexington). Cabinets were finished when he said. Installation took four days by highly professional guys who paid attention to every detail. We will definitely call Tom for our next cabinetry project.

**★★★★★ — Karen Watz, May 2018**

> I've had Tom and his team work on 2 major renovation projects in my home. The first was a kitchen remodel in 2013.  I was so happy with his work that  I had him return for a  Master Bath remodel. He built custom cabinetry for both projects. Tom does outstanding work with great attention to both detail and aesthetics. He's very easy to work with, gives excellent recommendations on design details and is honest and trustworthy. I give Tom my highest possible recommendation and would use him again in the future.

**★★★★★ — User, May 2018**

> Highest quality workmanship and meticulous installation. Honest and fair. I need to add more words so I suggest you call the man.

**★★★★★ — gailfreidhoffbohman, Nov. 2017**

> Tom did an EXCELLENT job wirh the mini-makeover of my 23 yo kitchen. He didn't have much to work with but was able to turn my unuser friendly kitchen inro a VERY user friendly kitchen. LOVE the pull-out pantry, the wine glass sliders with the glass doors and the stoorage area for my baking dishes is great. His small adjustments to my cabinets and drawers gave me so much more space. Very professional and a meticulous. Highly recommend him.

**★★★★★ — Kelli Hobson, May 2017**

> Tom did a great job building and installing cabinets in our basement.  We had a late change and he came up with a solution with no problems.  We would recommend him.  I liked how they built them first and then came to install with little mess and less inconvenience for us.

**★★★★★ — Layne Hallyburton, Nov. 2016**

> He did such a good job with my wet bar! It looks fantastic & he was great to work with!! Project was done within a reasonable amount of time & was priced well for the work done. It is very high quality work. I would highly recommend him for any of your cabinet needs!

**★★★★★ — mwbhe, Sept. 2016**

> This is an A-1 company.   They got the job done right.    Although a little late,  they did an excellent job.   I would not think twice about recommending them or using them on my next cabinet project.

**★★★★★ — tlnbonner, Aug. 2016**

> Tom Ricci strives for perfection while giving the customer the best look for the home. His comunication with the customer is the best I have ever known.

  - Description: This was a small space with a hallway on one side of it so it presented a challenge to fit everything in and have good flow. Moving the Refrigerator and stove to one side gave us better workspace at the counters alongside the sink. and also provides a much nicer look to the room from the rest of the house. The old kitchen had the sink and range on the same wall. The Island contains the Trash Pullout and a built in Microwave with a large drawer below it.. The tall cabinet doubles as a pantry and…
