DDK Kitchen Design Group

DDK was outstanding from beginning to the end. They were very focused on what my kitchen needed to do for me and were great at suggesting design ideas that would make the kitchen more functional and fun. I can honestly say it was the easiest renovation that I have ever done in my 115 year old home. They were a pleasure to work with and very concerned that I was a satisfied client. Highly recommend.

We love our new kitchen! Very happy with the professionalism and craftmanship of DDK. The attention to detail and follow through was outstanding. I highly recommend Jean and the rest of the DDK team.

A few years ago we worked with Dana Martin to update our kitchen and family room.dana was great in helping select countertops, cabinets, appliances and her special touches like adding beadboard to the ceiling. She did a fine job of marrying details into the den area. Her attention to detail, as well as Dan was amazing!

We have done several projects with designer Dana Martin. She is a patient and talented designer and our clients are very pleased with the finished product. We are happy to recommend DDK for cabinetry design!

In 2019, when we decided to renovate our kitchen and master bathroom in our condo in the north shore suburb, we worked with Nancy Henry who is an interior designer with DDK. We are happy to say that we could not have found a better design professional to work with on our project. Nancy provided the most valuable service throughout the process by guiding us on the selection of cabinetry & hardware, materials, finishes & colors, countertop, kitchen appliances, plumbing fixtures and accessories. She presented very creative ideas and patiently discussed functionality, merits and cost implications of different options and helped us make decisions which have resulted in an excellent end product of the highest quality. Nancy also suggested the name of contracting firm ED Enterprises Inc whose excellent performance and execution were as seamless and flawless as DDK team's design and procurement service. Per her suggestions, we also worked with the suppliers of kitchen countertops & floor tiles as well as the kitchen appliances and plumbing fixtures. All of them provided five star services and we are very thankful for all of Nancy's suggestions. My wife now has a very functional and very well designed kitchen where every detail has been well thought out and executed. In conclusion, I would like to add that I have written this review as a very satisfied client who also happens to be an architect. Although my professional experience of working with AE firms in Chicago area has mostly been on larger commercial and institutional projects - and not much on residential projects, I feel I can be a good judge on the performance of design and construction professionals. From my and my wife's personal experience on our project, we would not hesitate to recommend Nancy Henry and her colleagues at DDK kitchen Design Group to any one who wishes to design or remodel their kitchens, bathrooms and other areas in their homes. I have no doubt you will receive a high quality service and will join the long list of their satisfied customers.

We were impressed with Dan Thompson the first time we met him. His knowledge, experience, and creativity were far superior to the other professionals we considered. He adapted the original plans to better suit our 'age-in-place' design goals for the kitchen, master bath, and laundry/mudroom. The results are better than we had ever imagined. The entire DDK staff were highly professional, knowledgable and accessible. They met every deadline as promised and followed up to make sure the work was to our satisfaction. Highly, highly recommend!

My original kitchen was tiny, ugly & barely functional in a building that is over 90 years old. I went to DDK because my cousin used DDK 20 years ago for her kitchen & was very satisfied. Anne Dempsey worked with me giving suggestions and support. She was generous with her time and patient with my lack of knowledge about the myriad choices to be made. Mark & Kevin did the major heavy lifting of the job. Nothing was level or plumb when they started. They removed pantry walls & a window. They removed pipes from the walls that had no purpose. They worked consistently and I had complete confidence leaving them to do their work. Now I am thrilled every time I walk into my bright, beautiful, functional kitchen. It was a pleasure working with DDK & E.D.Enterprises & I would recommend them to anyone.

Fantastic experience. When contacted Dan drew the perfect kitchen design. The next steps were easy and efficiently handled. The installation started when materials were available so there was no lost time waiting for cabinets, flooring, back splash etc. The crew doing the installation were very professional and respectful of the building and my condo. The kitchen was completed in four weeks. I wish they did more than kitchens, I would have them do every room.

Nancy Henry was helpful all the way through my kitchen and master bath remodel project. She is much more than a cabinet salesperson: she is a design professional. She is up-to-date on trends in materials, lighting, and furnishings, as well as appliances. This is my second DDK kitchen, but, since the first was approx. 17 years ago, it was my first experience with Nancy.

It was truly a pleasure working with Dan and Jean Thompson from DDK. Dan's expertise and knowledge in kitchen design were evident from start to finish during our project. The design of our kitchen is so well thought out and the end product was not only beautiful, but also very functional for our family. Jean warmly welcomed any questions about design and helped us to finalize design choices that make the kitchen space stunning and unique. The contractors, ED Enterprises, recommended by DDK were also extremely professional and worked to the highest standards. We could not be happier with the quality of work and level of professionalism of everyone at DDK. The attention to detail and follow-up to any questions or concerns were met with immediate responses. They strive for perfection and it is evident in their work. We highly recommend DDK Kitchen Design Group. They truly helped us create the kitchen of our dreams and for that we are sincerely grateful.

We worked with Anne at DDK and our kitchen turned out beautifully! It's also very functional, Anne made great use of our limited space.

Working with Nancy from DDK was such a pleasure! She expertly guided us through all the steps in our total kitchen remodel. The general contractor she suggested, E.D. Enterprises, was the perfect match for us. The few questions/issues that came up during the construction project were quickly answered by Nancy. I would gladly recommend Nancy and DDK.
