She helped me with every design decision. Because of her excellent guidance, I have a new beautiful kitchen. My husband and I started our extensive kitchen renovation during the middle of Covid, a renovation that was plagued with delays, price increases, and unavailable materials. Cathy, being the consummate professional, navigated the renovation to completion. Hire Cathy Tanner for your kitchen renovation. She is a truly gifted kitchen designer. > > Maureen **★★★★★ — Brian C, June 2017** > It was an immense pleasure to work with Cathy. She was creative in her design consultation and provided recommendations that worked with our aesthetics. She had plenty of clever ideas around design organizing and we've been thrilled with the little things that she's suggested. > > I would strongly recommend Cathy for design consultation and just simply being a great partner. She was extremely sensitive to our requirements and very patient with me. **★★★★★ — Ashton Galloway, Feb. 2017** > Cathy goes above and beyond what you'd expect from a designer. Her expertise in design and artistic eye provided us a more functional and more beautiful kitchen than we thought we could have in our smaller space. Plus, as if that's not enough, as we amended our decisions through the process, it was her patience with us and guidance for us that made for an even more outstanding and comforting experience. **★★★★★ — Stephanie L, Dec. 2016** > Cathy was absolutely amazing! We have a small space with oddly shaped angles, and she came up with a design that maximized the angles \_and\_ gave us extra storage. We also expanded the kitchen space into a little of the dining area, and she made some great suggestions for a pantry area, a small wine bottle hutch, etc. She answered texts and e-mails quickly and was available for several in-person visits. The process took longer than we thought, especially in obtaining a contractor, but she was with us the whole way and persevered along with us. We now have a terrific kitchen that is an absolutely joy to work in, and we even have a new friend in the process! **★★★★★ — kwakyerandrea, Feb. 2016** > I hired Tanner Designs to work with me on my kitchen remodel project. I have to tell you that Cathy was great to work with. I describe what I was looking to accomplish with my kitchen redesign and Cathy was not only able to provide me with a lot of great recommendations, but she provided me with a very detailed package for the kitchen redesign that I was able to provide to to potential contractors for a bid. For someone like myself that is very busy, this helped me with tremendously with being able to move forward and to make progress on my project. Additionally she was able to aide me with my colors and all the other aesthetics that I needed. She also went with me to pick the granite for my counter-tops. Finally she is very respectful, honest and timely and I thought that her cost was very reasonable. She will also check in with you if you have any questions or need follow up recommendations. Even my contractor was impressed with with the package that she put together. If you need help with your kitchen design, I highly recommend that you give Cathy a try. Andrea Kwakye **★★★★★ — Michele Boudreau, Sept. 2015** > Cathy Tanner has a great eye for design, is super easy to work with, knows how to stay within budget and is an overall delight. I wholeheartedly recommend her! **★★★★★ — t\_wingrove, Aug. 2015** > Cathy is a pleasure to work with. She is a creative problem solver who guided us through our kitchen remodel. She had the patience to blend my husband and my conflicting styles and the talent to create a beautiful result. She also worked well with our contractor. I highly recommend her. **★★★★★ — charmaineting, Aug. 2015** > We are currently undergoing a kitchen remodel. We spent some time looking at cabinetry from various lines and found the Bellmont series to be solid structurally and esthetically pleasing. > > This is our first time working with Cathy of Tanner Designs. Cathy was able to work with our style preferences and budget constraints by giving us different options to consider. She is efficient and readily accessible to answer questions in a prompt manner. Cathy is wonderful to work with which helps ease some of the anxiety that comes with undertaking a kitchen renovation! There are great benefits with working alongside a designer from addressing quirks of a awkward space and coming up with creative solutions that honor both the esthetics and function. Thank you Cathy! **★★★★★ — The Look Staging & Design, Aug. 2014** > Cathy Tanner is an amazing kitchen designer.
