Accent On Kitchens, LLC

Cathy listened very carefully and respectfully to our wishes for our kitchen update and guided us to the products, services and people to complete the job. She is “unflinchingly nice”, cheerful and tireless. As a result, our kitchen looks like a million bucks!

We just completed a kitchen and master bath renovation project with Cathy. The whole experience from start to finish was perfect. The sub contractors that Cathy provided were absolutely outstanding. The quality of their work and the manner in which they carried it out was more than expected. Great job by all from start to finish. We would highly recommend Cathy and Accent on Kitchens.

When we moved into our new home we really didn't like the kitchen; everything was white, off-white & maybe white (see photo). I passed Accent On Kitchens on my way to school & decided to go in - one of my best decisions. Cathy was polite, knew what I was looking for (even though I could only describe my thoughts roughly) & helped me find exactly what I wanted. A butcher-block countertop, slate tiles, kitchen sink & some paint later our kitchen was transformed (see photos). Cathy & the installation crew she hired did a fantastic job; very good quality work which was done on time & in budget! Thank you so much for your help!

We have finished a complete kitchen remodel. I worked with Lisa O’Brien whose professionalism, knowledge and design were outstanding and very helpful. The supply of Candlelight Cabinets was completed on time and on budget. She was also instrumental in finding quality and affordable contractors for the install of cabinets, counter tops, tile work, and all appliances. Lisa has the taste and style that we liked and was able to guide us towards what we find as a tasteful and appealing in efficiently coordinating a working kitchen. I would highly recommend Accent on Kitchens.

Kathlyn hired me to jet out a perimeter drain at a house she manages. She was very polite, professional, and a great pleasure to work with.

We worked with Accent on Kitchens to redesign our kitchen and dining room space. Cathy was amazing. She had fresh creative ideas that made the space exactly as we wanted it. She was on time, reasonably priced and the outcome was better than we had imagined. This could have been a major change or something more simple. Cathy understood this and found a solution that met our situation just right. We would use Cathy again in a heartbeat.

Cathy was wonderful! She spent countless hours getting my kitchen just right! We converted an old 1880's living room into a new kitchen. Cathy did all the architectural work and it turned out beautifully. She has creative and knowledgeable ideas, but also really understood my specific needs and wants. She personally hunted down materials to fit my project. Most of the construction occurred while I was 2,000 miles away, and I was really impressed with Cathy's communication. She is an ultimate professional.

What a pleasure working with Cathy for our kitchen remodel project. She was able to take our vision of a dream kitchen and turn it into a reality, through carefully listening to, and addressing, all of our questions and concerns. For our next project (bathroom), we will look no further than Cathy and Accent on Kitchens.

I hired Cathy to design a kitchen island with lots of features in a small space. She met every one of my requests and designed a really functional but beautiful island. I couldn't be happier with the end result. We were also up against a timeline and Cathy coordinated with the contractor and provided all the information I needed to make sure that the delivery and install went smoothly. If I ever need more work done, I wouldn't hesitate to contact Cathy Box and Accent on Kitchens again.

I hired Accent on Kitchens to update my kitchen which needed to be brightened and updated. Kathy was amazing throughout the process. She has the experience and knowledge that I needed. Throughout the process, Kathy provided really good advice and guided me when I wrestled with more complex decisions. She is communicative, practical, professional, connected, and she knows her products. The end result is just amazing! I love my new granite counters and the kitchen has been transformed into a bright and beautiful space. I would absolutely recommend Kathy at Accent on Kitchens. Their products are beautiful and of good quality. There service is 5 star.

We had a fantastic experience working with Cathy and Accent on Kitchens! Her experience in construction and understanding of space and lighting were valuable in designing our kitchen and powder room. Her subcontractors were first rate and worked very hard to make it possible for us to celebrate the holidays at home. We would recommend Accent on Kitchens to anyone! Thank you Cathy!

Working with Cathy from Accent on Kitchens was a fantastic experience. She is extremely knowledgeable, not only in kitchen design, but in all aspects of construction and project management. Our project was an extensive kitchen remodel and she provided lots of creative ideas based on getting to know us and seeing how we live. We highly recommend Cathy and thoroughly enjoyed working with her.

Cathy Box at Accent on Kitchens is absolutely outstanding and a pleasure with which to work. She has exceptionally creative ideas, fine drafting skills and works diligently to keep projects on schedule. She is reliable and returns all calls within 24 hours. Her estimates are truthful and reasonable and she offered us many alternatives from which to choose. We will be using Cathy for our next project!

Cathy was wonderful to work with. Really knows her stuff. Had excellent suggestions that made our small remodel get a bigger bang for the buck. Has an excellent installer too. When we had some trouble finding the right granite slabs based on the sample she kept on the dealer until we found our perfect counters. Made things happen! I would highly recommend her to anyone.

Accent On Kithens did over a guest bathroom for me and also helped with all hardware for kitchen, bathrooms, office and laundry room. Cathy was incredible to work with and will definitely use her again!

I highly recommend Cathy Box for kitchen renovations. She did an awesome job of giving me ideas and options, while still letting me ultimately make the decisions for my kitchen. A pleasure to work with and extremely knowledgeable.

Last year I worked with Cathy Box of Accent on Kitchens to design a kitchen and bathrooms for our new house. The first thing that struck me was Cathy's enthusiasm. She was truly excited to work with me on our project. From picking out the cabinets to visiting the granite dealer with me to choose stone for the bathrooms to the time she spent with me looking at cabinet knobs and pulls she made the experience fun, and as stress free as building a kitchen could be. We have been in our home for a few months now and I am very happy every morning when I come down to my kitchen! The cabinets look great and Cathy added many little details that give our kitchen and bathrooms character. The stone we chose together looks perfect as do the knobs and pulls. Cathy was always available by phone, text or email. I was very glad to have her energy and expertise on this project which I had thought would be daunting, but turned out to be a lot of fun instead.

Cathy took my dream and made it happen. She was so easy to work with, listened carefully and consulted with me from start to finish. My 1930 kitchen had only a sink and a radiator and Cathy created a fabulous custom kitchen that was my dream kitchen. Cathy is a talented designer and all around nice person. I highly recommend her work.

We had been shopping around for a while trying to find someone to help us make our vision for our little kitchen a reality. One Saturday while driving to another kitchen supplier we saw the sign for Accents on Kitchens and decided to check it out. We found Cathy working with a customer, but after we had looked around for a few minutes she excused herself to talk with us and to tell us she’d be busy for an hour and we could wait or schedule a time to come back. We found this level of professionalism to be very refreshing and set up an appointment to come back. This professionalism was only the beginning. We found Cathy to be very knowledgeable not only with cabinets but she has a great knowledge of framing and construction, plumbing, electrical, appliances, hardware and countertops. She was able to understand what we were thinking and put it into a design that she still does on a drafting table, something I appreciated very much. She produced color renderings of her design that were wonderful. We were able to see our new kitchen in two different finishes helping to make our decision much easier. We ended up with a show piece kitchen in our opinion, that is far more functional than we had with much more usable space. I’d tell anyone if you’re looking for someone who knows kitchens and will be as enthusiastic about your project as you are go see Cathy at Accents on kitchens.

Cathy was instrumental in starting us down the path to a new kitchen. She listened to our ideas and budget and executed a plan that fit our style and wallet. She accommodated changes with ease. She is a great resource on products, appliances and gadgets- all things kitchen. She took the anxiety out of kitchen planning.

From showroom discussions, site visits & design, through delivery and handoff to installation we really enjoyed the process and leveraged the experience of the designer and the impressive displays. Cathy was artful in adapting new cabinets to our less than level/square old new englander, and we're very pleased with the results. Her vendors were professional and reliable.

We were very pleased with our experience working with Cathy at Accents on Kitchens. She has a keen knowledge in design as well as products. Her suggestions and guidance were invaluable as we navigated through our decisions. Although our project was not a large one no question was too small or unimportant to Cathy. She was there for us from beginning to end. We are thrilled with the new look of our kitchen. We highly recommend Cathy and would work with her again in a heartbeat. Margaret and George Hampton NH

The designers at AOK are extremely professional and very attentive to detail. Much consideration was given to both the overall design as well as the installation process needed. It is obvious that professionals at AOK are very knowledgeable in the entire remodel process. It was a pleasure working with Accents On Kitchens.

We met with several kitchen designers, and when we found Cathy, we knew we had found the one to best help us achieve our goal of a beautiful and updated kitchen. Our raised ranch had the typical boring kitchen that was in desperate need of some personality and character, and a better functioning layout. Cathy transformed this space into something that is open and cozy and we couldn’t be happier! If you are looking for someone that is excited about creating a space that reflects you and your needs, look no further. Cathy is definitely the one for the job!

When I met Cathy I was frustrated from having made the mistake of trying to work with a big box company. I explained what I had been through & Cathy was very positive and assuring that together we could get this project done without too much stress. I had a good idea of what I wanted and Cathy didn't seem to mind that. For example, I found my own pulls & knobs and not only was she not displeased with me, but she told me that she really liked them. She gave me guidance where I needed it & suggestions when I asked for them. I already knew what I wanted for countertop and I was able to pick out the cabinets quickly. She also suggested sources for flooring, new appliances, contractors & plumbing supplies (faucet & sink). I used almost all of her suggested sources and was pleased with them. She did all of the measuring and ordering. I was always able to contact her and she was always quick to get back to me. I never hesitated to ask her a question or ask her to share her knowledge & experience. As with any project, there were days when I just wanted to escape the mess but I am very pleased with the final outcome and I would do it all again for this result. I love my new kitchen & credit Cathy with helping me to get the end result that I wanted.

We teamed with Digger at Accent On Kitchen, LLC for our 2015 addition/renovation kitchen project. Our new space was large and uniquely shaped, which may have proved a challenge for other designers; however, Digger created an amazing one-of-a-kind design that not only maximized efficiency and visual impact, but truly made the room one cohesive space. Best of all, Digger partnered with us throughout the creative process to understand our personal style, preferences, and absolute "must-haves". From there, he offered invaluable insight and guidance to make our kitchen vision a reality! We couldn't be happier with our new kitchen and would highly recommend Accent On Kitchens to anyone.

My wife and I started our search for a new kitchen make-over with some ideas, but no experience. Cathy was a gold mine! She helped us bring our rough ideas into a refined and workable plan, from start to finish. We love the finished kitchen and never would have reached our goal without the patient, professional guidance from Cathy.

We had the fortunate experience of working with Digger from Accent on Kitchens for our total kitchen renovation. From design to installation to completion the project was amazing. Our goal was to have an abundance of cabinet space and a center island that included a large cooktop and seating for six adults. Our goals were nonetheless exceeded. The cabinets are of high quality and Digger worked closely with us every step of the way to be sure that the cabinets, flooring, granite and appliances all worked amazingly well together. Accent on Kitchens also worked very closely with our contractor to ensure a timely completion and on budget as promised. Definitely highly recommend Digger and Accent for your next kitchen renovation. Accent also completed a major bathroom renovation at our home 3 years ago. Again, we were very happy with the results and the quality of their work.

We had the fortunate experience of working with Kathy Box, proprietor of Accent on Kitchens, to remodel the kitchen of our 1913 colonial federal home. It was a challenging task to create a "new" space that would keep with the period of the home. Kathy, offered wonderful and creative ideas to achieve a custom kitchen with a seamless flow in our home. She accepted the many challenges that were presented with a true creative vision, openness, and enthusiasm. We love the kitchen that Kathy designed and 3 years later, there is nothing that we would change. I recall a specific outing to find granite for our countertops; this would be the 3rd such outing. I had a clear vision of what I wanted, and after 8 hours of going in and out of large stone companies in the Boston area, I was discouraged and wanted to settle for something that was only okay by my standards. Kathy wouldn't have it. She said we are NOT settling for anything. We are going to find the perfect granite... and we did! This is one example, of which there were many, as to how she approached the different aspects of our project. Over the past 3 years when little issues would arise, she made herself available to come to the house or call a manufacturer directly. She was along our side for the design and execution of the project and has remained there for the 3 years following. Simply put, you will be lucky to have Kathy, and Accent on Kitchens in your corner. Oh, and did I mention, she always honored our budgetary constraints, almost more than I did.... You can look forward to a most pleasurable experience. Enjoy!

Accent on Kitchens was exceptional. We hired Kathy to design, draw and plan our new addition/kitchen. From the beginning, Kathy spelled out the steps, procedure, costs & expectations. She is a wonderfully creative designer and with few changes, had our "kitchen ideas" on paper including all the little details in an incredibly short time. From there she created all necessary drawings for our contractors and they LOVED them. Every construction question was easily answered or addresses via the info provided by Kathy. Additionally, she was always available and in constant contact with us or our contractor to make sure our project was moving along smoothly. Kathy was here when our custom cabinets from Candlelight Cabinetry arrived, ensuring all was well & back again for our contractors to field questions. All in all, we thoroughly enjoyed our experience with Accent on Kitchens and highly recommended them. From beginning to end our wants and needs were always their priority and they delivered (including champagne when the project was complete).

I cannot say enough about the wonderful experience I have had while renovation TWO kitchens with the help of Accent On Kitchens. From concept to completion, Cathy was with me every step of the way. She quickly tuned into my tastes, and was able to recommend products and finishes that made it easy to wade through the endless array of products. What can generally be a very stressful experience was made totally enjoyable. Cathy's attention to detail is certainly evident, as both my renovations occurred with only minor adjustments. She is always available to me by phone (even two years after completion) and if she could not answer my question immediately, I could certainly expect one without delay. I highly recommend using Accent On Kitchens... it was one stop shopping with service being the number one priority!

Kathlyn Box has a longstanding reputation in her field, for a professional and personal commitment to cover the smallest of details while addressing the big picture on any given project. Since meeting Kathlyn in 1983, I have collaborated with her in many phases of her marketing strategies. Over the course of many decades, from concept through completion, she has earned the admiration of colleagues, respect from vendors and contractors, as well as the definite loyalty and trust of extremely satisfied clients, many of whom return and rely on her to take on other projects. Her experience and continued understanding of evolving building trends, from local code and industry standards, produce cutting-edge designs that meet and exceed the expectations of the most discerning clients. She presents an honest and forthright approach with her clients; her can-do attitude reassures them as she takes every effort to mitigate any potential stressful situations that could crop up during design and construction. Kathlyn is truly deserving of the awards and accolades accorded her. I highly recommend Kathlyn at Accent on Kitchens to anyone searching for a kitchen and bath designer who firmly demonstrates integrity and dedication to her craft. --Mary August, Augustagraphics

Kathy Box provided the kitchen design to incorporate a pantry closet, self closing drawers, and cupboards to the ceiling, which improved our storage tremendously. The natural wood cupboards were a better fit for our home than the painted white ones from the previous owner.This is the fourth kitchen Kathy has assisted us with, tom include former homes and seasonal cottages. We now love to entertain with our lovely kitchen! Thank you Accent On Kitchens for your quality products!

We had granite counter tops installed in our kitchen in May 2015. I worked with Cathy and can't say enough good things about her. She walked me through the process step by step. Accent on Kitchens did a great job. We are very pleased with the outcome.

I had the pleasure of working with Cathy Box, owner of Accent on Kitchens, when she upgraded my kitchen. She helped me redesign using my existing cabinets and backsplash. The result was beautiful. Cathy knows where to find exactly the right product and her crew was very efficient and thoughtful. I would highly recommend Accent on Kitchens. Marcia Norris

Kathy is the best! She is so easy to work with and is a true "kitchen resource". Her knowledge and experience can"t be matched! She is able to not only order the cabinets you need but will also direct you in electrical, structural, counters and plumbing needs. She was always willing to call me and my husband with any questions we had, and was always willing to travel to our house if needed! (over an hour away) Her product is amazing. The cabinet quality, color and various sizes and custom touches created true custom kitchen. While at the same time, Kathy herself remained very respectful of trying to work within our budget. It was truly a pleasurable experience to have worked with Kathy
