> I have been working with Catherine on a professional level for a while and I am happy to recommend her design work to anyone who is looking to remodel their kitchen.  She is experienced, highly qualified and is an absolute pleasure to work with at General Woodcraft, Inc.  Her ability to work within budget constraints and meet deadlines is on target.

**★★★★★ — Mystic River Building Company, Nov. 2016**

**★★★★★ — User, Nov. 2016**

> Great to work with!  We selected two bathroom vanities -  each unique and beautiful.  Suggestions to customize our look were spot-on!  We even had door samples of each finish before we placed the order.  Delivery was on-time and within our budget.

**★★★★★ — Elizabeth Potts, Nov. 2016**

> Thanks for the beautiful kitchen! From meetings (both in the showroom and onsite) to design, re-design, appliance shopping, delivery and installation assistance the experience has been great! Can't wait to get in and use it!! Thank you!

**★★★★★ — mherbert57, Aug. 2016**

> Last summer the Design Team of General Woodcraft helped me to create my dream kitchen and some much needed updates to my first floor. By removing the wall that separated my small outdated kitchen and no longer needed office, we created a more open expansive kitchen. It is a lovely modern gourmet delight. The adjacent foyer and powder room were also redone to complement the style and colors of the kitchen. I am very thankful for the team's time and expertise that went into the floor plans and the selection of the gorgeous materials. I am also grateful for their finding solutions to any issues that came up along the way and for all their patience to my numerous questions throughout the entire renovation process.
