**★★★★★ — jlinmd, Feb. 2023**

> This review is way overdue! Sorry Missi and John!  If you want want a new kitchen, hire this husband and wife team and they will take very good care of you from start to finish.  We hired Renaissance Design Studio in 2020 for our total renovation and the end result was amazing.  We couldn't be more pleased with Missi and John.  Thank you guys again!  We will hire you guys for the our next project.

**★★★★★ — HU-344976906, June 2022**

> My experience with Missi and John of Renaissance Design was fantastic!
> This was my first kitchen remodel and Missi guided me through the entire process. In addition to the cabinet selection, she helped me with appliances, backsplash, countertop, and flooring.
> John did an immaculate job installing the cabinets.
> In addition to their fine work, both Missi and John have fabulous personalities, and they are a delight to work with!
> I highly recommend them!

**★★★★★ — gtstamps, Oct. 2020**

> John and Missi Bart helped us with a full kitchen renovation this summer.  Although they technically just do cabinets, Missi does so much more.  They only take a limited number of jobs at a time and she was great about communicating with out contractor and subs.  She even helped us choose the backsplash, appliances, plumbing fixures and countertop!  We were in another state during the whole project and Missi was great to send pictures and patiently handle our questions and concerns.  The cabinets are excellent quality and we are very pleased with the whole project! John and Missi exceeded our expectations!

**★★★★★ — winifred rush, Aug. 2019**

> Missi and John were the best to work with.  Missi provided renderings of our proposed design that really gave a vision of our master bath remodel.  After our vanity cabinets were installed, John did a brilliant job of making some minor adjustments.
> Both Missi and John, listened, interpreted and produced-they are great professionals!!!

**★★★★★ — Jacqueline Crisci, Aug. 2019**

> We loved working with Renaissance Design for their expertise and professionalism. Missi has great knowledge of everything to do with cabinetry as well being a great resource for the overall design. I felt it was important to incorporate the cabinetry with the overall look I was working on with the my designers. Renaissance did a great job with the install making sure to pay attention to every detail. Nothing was overlooked. We would highly recommend Renaissance Design for all of your cabinetry needs!

**★★★★★ — bhibbeln, March 2018**

> My kitchen is absolutely stunning and very functional !  Missy has excellent design skills and organizational skills!  I am enjoying my beautiful kitchen ,family and laundry room remodel!

**★★★★★ — Samantha Schnittker, Aug. 2017**

> I really can't say enough good things about this company and Missi.  We worked on a total remodel of a kitchen 2 half bathes a full bath and a laundry/butlers pantry.  I appreciated that as we worked through this very large project that she listened to what I wanted and understood that  ultimately my family would be the ones using the space.  John installed all of the cabinets with such care to every detail.  His knowledge of fit and finish was wonderful.  I will use them again when it comes time to do my bedroom/master bathroom.  Thanks for the great work and care.  We completed our project in late 2016.   Please forgive me for being so long on this review.

**★★★★★ — Jay and Lin Dockendorff, Dec. 2016**

**★★★★★ — pointofrockscircle, Dec. 2016**

> Missi Bart is a creative designer with a meticulous attention to detail. She helped us create a large feeling vintage kitchen, bath and laundry room in a small renovated historic beach house. Installations and finishing touches completed by John Bart were done with a perfect fit and finish. They worked with care, as if it were their home.

Complementary millwork was added, including a wood tongue and groove ceiling, soft aqua on the walls and a washed wood floor combine to create this relaxing space. It all started when the homeowners contacted the original bath designer to incorporate the Kohler Digital TV steam shower into their double walk-in open shower design.
