**★★★★★ — Paul Grothouse, June 2024**

> Classic Kitchens & Designs is a great firm to work with. Justin and Mark are awesome, very detail oriented with beautiful designs!

**★★★★★ — valerie4419, April 2024**

> Nice kitchen design and wish our budget had more so we could also update the family room which was on the other end of the kitchen. Mike the contractor did a fantastic job and helped me and my husband to compromise on a number of issues. Justin at Classic Kitchens answered all of our questions regards to billing and other details. Could not be happier with my new dream kitchen. The photos show the before and after images.

**★★★★★ — HU-112072663, March 2021**

> Classic Kitchens was responsible for all aspects of the design and procurement of the materials for our kitchen remodel. In addition, they provided recommendations for contractors that had a proven record of doing superior work. Mark’s ability to listen to our needs and assess the space, then develop a design that meets those requirements, was exceptional. They also worked with the contractor through out the remodel. The quality and beauty of the cabinets, countertop material, flooring and hardware are excellent. The finished product is both functional and and aesthetically pleasing. We could not be happier and recommend them highly.

**Comment from Classic Kitchens & Designs:**

> Thank you so much for your kind review Michael! We loved working with you and Brenda and are thrilled about how everything turned out. We are pleased to know that our service and product meets your expectation. We really appreciate the level of trust that you had with us! Thank you for partnering with us in the process!

**★★★★★ — Brian Davis, Jan. 2021**

> Mark, Chuck, and the entire team were a pleasure to work with.  Mark created a beautiful and very practical design for our office.  While there were some scheduling issues along the way, Mark was always professional and did whatever he could to help.  Cyrus and Greg were the installers, and they are extremely capable and skilled craftsmen!

**Comment from Classic Kitchens & Designs:**

> Brian, thank you so much for your kind review. It was a wonderful experience working with you to create an office where the design was intentional and integrated what was important to you. May you enjoy your transformed office for years to come! Thank you again for giving us an opportunity to help with your needs.

**★★★★★ — Boris Bakovic, Oct. 2020**

> We are so very happy that we engaged Mark and his team at Classic Kitchens to reimagine our kitchen. We could not see past the existing layout. Classic Kitchens asked us a series of questions and spent time with us to understand our lifestyle and to ensure the design met our every requirement. They came back with a design that thoughtfully implemented those requirements, and so much more, without moving a single wall. We are thrilled with the results. The storage and organization this kitchen provides is extraordinary.  The choice of cabinetry materials is exquisite. And the QCCI workmanship is top notch.  Moreover, Mark and his team were always available in person or by phone to provide advice on so many choices you face when doing a complete kitchen remodel.  We would recommend Classic Kitchens without reservation.

**Comment from Classic Kitchens & Designs:**

> Boris, thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful words. It was such a pleasure working with you to create a kitchen that added functionality and storage to your life. We truly appreciate the opportunity to turn your kitchen into a room that will be enjoyed for years to come. The new design blends perfectly with the existing aesthetic of your home. We couldn't be happier that you had a great experience all the way through!

**★★★★★ — gunnertherunner, Sept. 2020**

> Mark had the wonderful ability to understand my taste then carry it much further than I knew I wanted. I have a beautiful kitchen that functions perfectly and brings me incredible joy. There are aspects of his design that were so much more efficient than I knew to ask for  and the color choices presented to me were exactly what I wanted but didn't know I wanted. I absolutely love the results and couldn't be happier.

**Comment from Classic Kitchens & Designs:**

> Thank you for your kind words! You and Lori were a joy to work with. It also takes an open minded and patient client to weave through with us the myriad of options that are available design wise that will complement the interior architecture of the house. The whole team here at Classic Kitchens & Designs take pride in what we create and implement into a finished design that will stand the test of time and be enjoyed by yourselves with family and friends.

**★★★★★ — QCCI, Inc., Aug. 2020**
