Jerry Schuster - Remodeling Specialist
Kitchen Designers in Durham
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJanuary 24, 2013
“I finally got my dream kitchen/sunroom. I spend the majority of my time in these rooms and still to this day can't say enough about the how pleased I am with how it all turned out--just wish I had done this sooner. HomePerfect did an outstanding job with all the headaches I found out that come with this territory--the unexpected does happen. I will be sure to contact them on my next project.”

“I hired David for a bathroom remodel which required a lot of demo work! He reconfigured walls and had to level out floors. David took the extra time to ensure that the foundation was perfect to minimize any flaws or imperfections when the tile went in. The end result was absolute perfection! I should mention too that David was very helpful and patient with me in selecting tile and was able to offer sound advice based on his experience with certain types of tile. David was a true partner in this project and I truly appreciate the time attention he dedicated to me!!!”

“Anne helped us with a BIG kitchen project in our home. Basically we gutted the kitchen, demolished the wall to the dining/living room and incorporated the kitchen into the great room. Anne took a look at the big picture, making sure that all elements of the new kitchen blended and enhanced the existing open room, as well as contributing efficiency and beauty. I can't say enough good things about her. She is resourceful, attentive to details, creative, and definitely thinks outside the box if that's what you need. On top of all those stellar qualities, she is a delight to work with, pleasant and good natured, and above all - POSITIVE. Her positive attitude made us feel like our plan was the best ever designed. And we have not regretted a single thing we did in that big project. We would definitely recommend her. If she can manage a big project like ours, she can do outstanding work on smaller jobs as well.”

“I cannot say enough about Amy Norris and her work to help us with plans and materials for our kitchen renovation. Her measurements and plans were spot on! She was very professional and immediately corrected an issue with one of the cabinet faces (not her fault.) Amy is a wealth of knowledge about kitchen and bathroom renovations and more. We will be calling her soon for help renovating our bathroom.”
Michelle Verrill / Kitchen & Bath Galleries
Kitchen Designers in Durham
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsAugust 11, 2014
“Michelle was wonderful to work with! Her experience and thoroughness with helping us choose cabinets and countertop for a wet bar area in our newly finished attic space was completely refreshing. She was able to guide us as well on decisions about whether or not the cabinets we chose would work in an area that was more complicated than the standard fare. She was also most attentive to trying to work with our schedule, which constantly fluctuated based on other contractors. Michelle was someone we would consult again if the need arose and provided exceptional customer service!!”

Kitchen Designers in Durham
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMay 16, 2013
“After living in our house for almost ten years, and being unhappy with our kitchen for about eight of those years, my wife and I finally decided to pull the trigger on a kitchen remodel. We decided that we couldn't do it without the guidance of a professional, which is where Caroline Shillito at emma delon enters the picture. She was recommended by my wife's mother, who had hired her to help remodel her bathroom. From the very first informational meeting, we felt totally confident in Caroline's approach and abilities. Her experience was evident with the questions she asked us and the answers she had for ours. Then moving forward in the process, from the initial design to the impending demolition, she has been on top of or ahead of every step and issue that would come along. My wife and I were able to actually enjoy the process of picking materials and choosing the elements that will make our new kitchen our own.”

“Lisa consulted with me for my kitchen redesign and the reuse of existing rooms. She listened to my needs and concerns and came back with a comprehensive plan. She was clear, decisive and had some creative ideas that I continue to use today. I would highly recommend Lisa. I thought she was exceptional in her design expertise and her ability to listen well and communicate clearly.”
Marsh Kitchen & Bath
Kitchen Designers in Durham
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsOctober 13, 2013
“We are so pleased with our kitchen remodel done by Marsh Kitchens! We loved working with Carol VanZile and she designed a kitchen that we are so proud of. The entire team involved in our kitchen and den remodel were great to work with, Carol helped guide me each step of the way with her knowledge and talent. The washer and dryer cabinet that Marsh did for us is the best! We love it. I can't tell you how many compliments we get, and the surprise from people when they open the doors and find our washer and dryer hidden there! We enjoy spending time in our kitchen and den area now. We recently had a big party, and it was such a joy to show off the new kitchen. Thank You, Carol and crew!!!”

Kitchen and Bathroom Designer FAQs
The duration of a kitchen design project varies widely based on scope, but a complete kitchen renovation can typically take 3 to 6 months from initial design to completion. Planning and design might take 1 to 2 months, while construction and installation will take another 2 to 4 months. Remember, customization and material availability can impact these timelines.
Kitchen designers are knowledgeable about the latest design trends and materials, ensuring your kitchen is both stylish and functional. Sustainable materials and smart kitchen technologies are currently popular, as are designs that promote open spaces and natural light. Quartz remains a top choice for countertops due to its durability and aesthetic variety. Your designer can help you navigate these options, balancing current trends with timeless design principles.
Before consulting a kitchen designer, gather inspiration (photos, magazines, online boards) to clarify your aesthetic preferences. Also, think critically about your budget and functional needs (e.g., cooking habits, number of users, storage requirements). Being clear about your needs and wants will help the designer create a tailored solution.
The most common challenges include staying within budget, making decisions among numerous options, and managing the disruption of construction. Experienced kitchen designers address these by establishing a clear budget upfront, guiding homeowners in making informed decisions, and creating a detailed project timeline. Regular communication is key to navigating unforeseen issues smoothly.
Expect regular updates and open communication channels throughout your project. Professional kitchen designers often use project management software to track progress and decisions, ensuring transparency. Meetings at key milestones for approvals and feedback are standard. Itʼs reasonable to expect responsiveness within 24-48 hours for any inquiries you may have during the project.
To achieve a balance between trendiness and timelessness, focus on incorporating trends through easily changeable elements like paint colors or hardware, while keeping foundational elements (e.g., cabinetry, flooring) classic and durable. Your kitchen designer can guide you in selecting materials and designs that reflect current trends without sacrificing longevity or comfort.
