Capozzi Design Build

We worked with Capozzi Design and are so pleased with our kitchen, powder room and dining room remodeling projects. Everyone was very professional including including Anne, Kevin, Cynthia and RuthAnn as well as the crew from Benchmark who did all the work including Lou, Steve and Greg. We are embarking on our second phase of home remodeling with this amazing team. 5 stars for Capozzi Design!

We used Capozzi Design group to remodel our master bathroom. They were very professional and great to work with on the design, remodel and installation. Now our bathroom is like my own personal spa. Don’t hesitate to give them a call.

We worked with Anne and Kevin and her team to remodel our master bedroom suite ( bedroom, master bathroom, and enlarged our closet). This was our first remodel and had heard many horror stories about contractors from friends and family. We couldn't keep putting the project off, so we interviewed a couple companies and decided on working with Capozzi. That was the right decision for us. They worked to give us great layout ideas, some options to help keep me "within / close to my budget", and all under one roof. They helped us with everything from layout, to materials, and even our bedroom furniture and blinds. I was so happy I have to one team from design to install. The carpenters and staff were awesome too, friendly and professional.

We worked with the Capozzi Design Build to renovate our kitchen in 2014. We moved to a new home in 2020. When we bought the home, we knew it needed a major renovation, and knew we would want to work with the Capozzi's again. We worked with Anne and her team to create our dream home. I found some inspiration photos that set the tone for the whole home. We started on the first floor, with renovating the kitchen ( including removing walls and a secondary staircase), dining room, and living room on the first floor. -- At the same time, we worked with the team to make some major improvements to the second floor. This included taking an existing wing of the home, and creating a master suite. This included a walk in closet, a work out room, and an enlarged bathroom. We relocated the bedroom to give us more privacy and a much better view. We could never have imagined the ideas and repurposing of space without the help of the Capozzi Team. They are visionaries. We are so thankful to have been able to work with a team that we had a good history with, really liked, and really trust. Our family just came into town for the holidays, and they were shocked by the transformation! We love our "new" home.

This was our first time renovating a kitchen and we’re so happy that we used CDG and Benchmark! I’ve always dreamed of having “The Galley / Reinvent Your Kitchen” system installed when we were ready to remodel our kitchen. When I started to search for a Galley Distributor, I was referred to Capozzi Design Group. Working with Anne, Kevin, Lou and the rest of the design team was an absolute pleasure. The process of the renovation was explained clearly in our initial conversation and we were encouraged with their ideas, design and execution of the plan. Everyone who we worked with from the Capozzi Office, Designers, Managers, as well as, the talented Craftsman who worked on our project, were always professional, attentive to details and made sure that we were pleased with their work every step of the way! Thank you!

There aren't enough superlatives to describe what it was like to work with the Capozzi Team! From the first phone call to job completion, I was impressed. I had contacted other contractors but decided on Capozzi because they seemed to really "GET" what I was looking for. My kitchen remodel turned out great! Now I know where everything is and it's easy to get to. Everything just flows making time in the kitchen SO MUCH BETTER. Anne and I discussed several designs within my budget. We decided on one and Kevin and his team executed beautifully. Of course, there were a couple of minor bumps in the road (materials on back order...what isn't on back order this year?) but we worked through the issues and all is good. Most importantly, communication was terrific throughout the whole process. The crew showed up on time and cleaned up when finished for the day. Who does that????? I will definitely be looking to Capozzi for my next project(s)!

Capozzi helped us every step of the way, and it was helpful to have realistic opinions about what works and what doesn't. Everyone we worked with or came to work at the house was pleasant and professional. We're thrilled with our new kitchen!

Our job was small, but not too small. I was afraid Capozzi wouldn't take on a modest task like mine. Lou Kinczel, the project manager for Capozzi's agile, small job team, Benchmark Home Services, was great to work with. He understood what I was trying to do and lent his expertise to make it look nice, and not just functional. We bought a home that was recently remodeled, and the kitchen had a microwave over the range with the requisite vent. I like to cook a lot, and these are not sufficient. We installed a real hood to replace it, and he measured the exposed areas to replace with commercial stainless, using a laser and fabricating a custom piece that is functional and gorgeous. Thank you!

2019 was the year we braved remodeling our 42-year-old farmhouse style kitchen. After two initial informative consultations with Ruthann Capozzi at her beautiful Kitchen studio in Chagrin Falls, Ohio, we decided to entrust the project to the Capozzi Design Group. Together with her husband Kevin, chief project manager, Ruthann brought in her long time experience, technical knowledge and excellent sense of design to completely reconfigure our somewhat cramped kitchen space. She suggested removing several beams and moving back a wall. Reluctant as I was at first, Ruthann convinced me (and my husband sided with her) that it was the right thing to do! By so doing, she created an inviting, open, « contemporary » space, while preserving the farmhouse feel we liked by keeping some beams around the periphery of the kitchen. And there was room for a spacious pantry as well! Thanks to her vision and suggestions, we now have a lovely, spacious transitional kitchen, equipped with white custom-made cabinetry, a white hood, white quartz counters, a soft tan-colored tile backsplash complementing « champagne » colored hardware. As a contrast to the white cabinetry, Ruthann suggested a walnut-topped rustic island in a pretty shade of grey which stands out beautifully against the new grey and white tile floor. Following her advice, we opted for upscale energy-efficient appliances, including a Wolf cooktop and matching ovens accented with red knobs. And last but not least, the above and under cabinet ribbon lighting looks fabulous! Throughout the completion of the project, which took roughly four months including demolition, we had a very positive, friendly and easy collaboration with Ruthann, Kevin and their team, and we are presently engaged in further projects with them.

I love my new kitchen! It was a real pleasure to work with such a professional team--from the superb design by Ruthann Capozzi to the carpenters, electrician and plumber. The whole kitchen renovation took two months because the workmen came five days a week and worked for at least eight hours. One of the carpenters finished every day by swiffering my kitchen and dining room floor. I've heard horror stories about contractors tearing out a kitchen and then vanishing for months. I didn't have to worry about that issue with Capozzi Design Group. I would recommend this company to anyone.

I interviewed many design and remodeling groups. Most told me what I couldn't do with my kitchen remodel budget. Anne Capozzi was the only designer who said, "Let's see what we CAN do within your budget". Anne was very meticulous in researching our lifestyle, how my husband and I work together in the kitchen and our priorities for the renovation. The construction team was polite, professional and sensitive to our family time. One asset for Capozzi Design is Lou K. the project manager. He adeptly handled our numerous questions, emails and text messages. Lou was always on top of any problems and if need be - looked for solutions that would fit our timeline and budget while keeping the finished outcome in mind. Our project expanded from just the kitchen to lighting, walls and flooring in the dining room. The powder room was also updated with a new vanity and lighting. Even with the additional rooms, the project ran the expected 10 weeks to completion. The kitchen is beautiful, incredibly functional and has more storage space than I can fill. I am very grateful to Anne, Kevin, Lou and the rest of their team for making my dream come true! (Please see the two Before and two After pictures)

We used Capozzi design for our living room renovation, they did a wonderful job. Throughout the design phase, Ruthann really listened to what we were trying to achieve and came up with solutions that were creative and practical. Both Ruthann and Kevin were very involved with the implementation, they kept us in the loop with what was going on and what to expect. They kept close tabs on their contractors to assure quality work. They transformed our living room to what we wanted and more.
