Kitchen Designers in Black Mountain

“We had just moved to a home near the beach and we needed a totally different style of decorating than we had in our previous home. Leslie Thompson of Malibu West Interiors gave us just what we were looking for, a cozy but unique design to our home. Leslie did not give me a cookie cutter style. She worked with me to learn my personality and expectations. The result is a style that represents me and not a photo from a magazine. Leslie provided elements that you will not see anywhere else. I found this design company to be friendly, efficient and fair. I have used many designers over the years and this is the most honest and dependable firm I have ever worked with. We enjoyed working with them so much that we are now collaborating on our exterior living space. It is easy to see how Malibu West Interiors is highly rated and has won national recognition.”

“Kris is such a professional and very detailed! He is skilled as considering all the spatial aspects of the cabinetry design in relation to the architecture and the interior design. He also is able to accommodate any range of budget and offer beautiful quality products for any project. I have enjoyed working with both Kris and Julie on several projects and would highly recommend Atwood Cabinetry!”

“My husband and I built our retirement home high in the mountains north of Asheville. We were referred to Mason by a builder, and although we ultimately went with another builder, we stayed with him for our kitchen/baths. This was our dream home...log and timber, and I am an avid cook, but had NO idea how to begin designing a kitchen. I spent many mornings with Mason...he asked specific questions about how I cooked and organized, and my likes/dislikes. It came out better than I ever expected. We wanted a home that was sophisticated, yet rustic. He suggested knotty cherry that was perfect...also a black heirloom that looks really rustic (on my island and as a piece of furniture incorporated within the caramel colored cabinetry). Also, I knew I wanted something different above a 48 inch rangetop.... and we finally settled on a stone surround that mirrored our large stone fireplace in the great room across from it, , that included spice racks built into the stone on each side. I haven't mentioned yet that the prices were comparable to semi-custom- he was less than our Lowes estimate (for comparable materials). I went with his suggestions in the baths....particularly the Master, and all are beautiful. We get as many compliments on the kitchen as on the beautiful log trusses/ ceilings/ and woodwork in this home! Thank you Mason! Elaine & Dan Crabb”

“Dan is definitely the best. He's there for the whole process. His designs are functional and beautiful. We love the work he did for us.”

“Meghan was both the designer and the 'overseer' for my kitchen renovation, and she did a wonderful job. She is an excellent designer, finding the balance between good design and what i wanted (I am a bad designer but a frequent cook, and I had opinions....). Once the design was done, she kept me posted while we waited for cabinets. A separate contractor was used and she seamlessly coordinated with him. As always, there were a few hiccups along the way, but Meghan is committed to excellence and makes sure the job is done and done right.”

“Advance Cabinetry was absolutely wonderful to work with! I enjoyed every aspect of the design and installation process. They are very creative, helpful, and prompt. The kitchen is beautiful and functional; with so many interesting extras. I strongly recommend Advance Cabinetry.”

“I worked with Kara Gressler at HomeSource Design Center and she is great! We had the best time working on the design layouts for my kitchen, beverage center, laundry room and guest bathroom. She was enthusiastic about the project and totally understood the industrial feel I was aiming to create. Her ideas were well though out and on target with my concept. I appreciated her experience and professional experience which helped me avoid mistakes in cabinet design. Kara was budget conscience, always giving me several options on cabinet finishes, doors, etc and, again, making suggestions to ensure I got the biggest bang for the money I was spending. The installation went very smoothly and we are looking forward to the finishing touches being done once the build is completed. I would definitely recommend working with Kara at HomeSource.”

“We hired Lifestyles by Design to design and deliver our kitchen cabinets. Shannon and Jim were great to work with and helped us with the design and selection of our cabinets. They work with multiple suppliers, so there are many available choices. Very happy with the quality and look of our kitchen!”

“I built our new "dream" home a little over a year ago. I knew exactly what I wanted and did lots of research. I know more than most now about cabinets - are they solid wood? dovetail? closures? staining process? Before I hired a builder, I interviewed several cabinet builders in town and in Charlotte. I was most impressed by SpartaCraft and the professionals that worked there. They let me tour the facility and see the entire process from start to finish. I knew cabinets were going to be one of my highest line items so I wanted to make sure that 1. I got what I wanted 2. That the builders I was interviewing allowed enough dollars for the cabinets. Once I had chosen my builder, I used most of his subs. The one that I wouldn't compromise on was Don and Spartacraft. It wasn't easy to convince my builder, who had a working relationship with a cabinet builder. He let me know that if there was one aspect of the project that would hold the entire house up - it would be the cabinet guy. He really tried to talk me out of hiring Spartacraft but I wouldn't relent. I assured him that Spartacraft would be timely and the quality would be outstanding. I was taking a bit of a leap of faith - now I could be the reason that my house was held up!! However, what I believed would happen did! Spartacraft was actually ahead of schedule and had to wait on my builder - Needless to say, he was also very impressed with Spartacraft and their quality. Several of their employees come from the furniture industry and you can tell with the quality of their work. They made custom inlays for me, custom moldings, custom banquettes etc. You name it they were up for the task. I would recomment Spartacraft wholeheartedly!! They were wonderful to work with and their finished, installed products speak for themselves. I get more compliments on my cabinets than any other part of my house. Thank you!!!”

“Nathan does excellent work at very good prices. I needed a custom cabinet built for a wall in my living room to display my art. Nathan did a beautiful job and in a timely manner at a better price than the other quotes I received. Would definitely recommend his company.”
