My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

We met Nancy over three years ago when we started thinking about remodeling our kitchen. Right from the beginning we knew we had met the right person for the job. She guided us through the long process of planning with patience and understanding. Her professional skills speak for themselves through the beautiful designs she creates. Every person we’ve met through Nancy who represent the Heartwood Kitchens team are equally wonderful. In four months, our kitchen was finished and the transformation is incredible. We are delighted with the whole project and are so grateful for Nancy and her team. We highly and wholeheartedly recommend them!

When we purchased our new home in September 2020, we knew our first project would be the kitchen. With our kids descending on us for the Christmas season we wanted to try and have it done by then. Nancy was nothing short of a rock star helping complete this project. Nancy's original plans and tweaks were done within a very quick timescale to let us get the work started. From start to finish Nancy and the Heartwood Kitchens team were responsive and on top of every detail. We had some young friends come visit and when they walked in to the kitchen they stated "this is like a dream kitchen", and it IS, it's my dream kitchen. I would 100% work with Nancy again and have not an iota of hesitation in recommending this company.

Working with Nancy and Sherry from Heartwood Kitchens was a great experience from start to finish. We completed a large kitchen renovation including removal of a wall and adding a pantry. The layout and final product exceeded my expectations. Nancy listened and delivered everything we wanted and went above and beyond to make sure we got it right. Our main floor is now a welcoming gathering place thanks to Heartwood Kitchen’s expertise.

We are so glad we got the chance to work with Nancy at Heartwood Kitchens! She was very patient and thorough during the planning and design process and came up with multiple layouts for our kitchen remodel. I was nervous about a couple of elements with the layout (would there be enough passing space?, would the vestibule to the porch look funny?), but Nancy assured me that the proportions were plenty and the vestibule was the best solution for our limitations. Not only was she right, but we love everything about this layout! And the vestibule adds architectural interest to the kitchen. Every day we comment on how perfectly the kitchen was designed and what a dream it is to live here. Nancy was able to put us in contact with an amazing construction team. Darren and his crew executed the job (including a powder room, laundry room, and other updates) with great attention to detail. We couldn't be happier!

We just completed our third project with Heartwood Kitchens and couldn't be happier. Nancy and the team are such a pleasure to work with. Their amazing design skills, attention to detail, and excellent communication not only result beautiful, functional, and liveable spaces, but also make what can be a complex and overwhelming undertaking a breeze and even lots of fun. In this recent project, they helped us to completely reimagine our space in an 1889 former cow barn. We moved the existing cramped galley kitchen to another area and created a large open kitchen and dining space. From the former kitchen we created an awesome pantry and a much-needed office. They offer top quality products and access to a cadre of great vendors and contractors. Thanks to the team for another great renovation. We are now cooking up a storm again!

When I became owner of my family home, a 1963 ranch in RI on Aquidneck Island, I contacted Nancy to discuss renovating the original kitchen. From home visit, to showroom consultation, to completion, Nancy and her team were nothing short of brilliant. Their combined creative talent, technical skills and on-point customer service produced a beautiful, sunny, easy to use and easy to navigate space. It gives me joy. I’m very proud to have a Heartwood Kitchen. I saw a variety of them in photos, and in person, prior to having my own. They all have an individual esthetic that really stands out. They’re all different but equally stunning. It’s a true mark of attention paid to their client’s wishes/needs and the ability to transform those wishes into joyful spaces! Cheers, Heartwood Kitchens!

My experience with Heartwood Kitchens was extremely positive. I relied heavily on the guidance of Nancy and her team for layout, cabinets, counter and appliances. She was very flexible in accommodating our renovation plan and I was extremely pleased with the results. I would highly recommend them.

We recently completed a kitchen renovation and worked with Nancy at Heartwood Kitchens and couldn't be happier with the outcome. Nancy made several visits to our home to ensure everything was thought of and make sure the new flow of the kitchen suited our best needs. We felt very confident that we were in the hands of the best in the business. Nancy was always available (night and day) to answer questions and assist with whatever was needed. Her attention to detail and ideas were very helpful and made the process very smooth. We LOVE our new kitchen and highly recommend Nancy and her team!

We worked with Nancy at Heartwood to design our kitchen, and we purchased a beautiful set of cabinets there. When we bought our home, we knew that the kitchen needed to be blown up and rebuilt from scratch. It was cramped and used space inefficiently — and terribly outdated. My wife and I both like to cook, so it was a priority for us to make the space something that we’d love. Because the kitchen was relatively small, we thought the perspective of a kitchen designer would maximize the room’s potential. We are very happy with the design that Nancy gave us. It has transformed the space and made the kitchen the highlight of our home. Over the course of a few in-person meetings, we collaborated with Nancy to overhaul our entire kitchen. She took into account how we cook and hoped to use the space, and she also worked with our contractor on details. Nancy was creative. For instance, she recommended removing one of two side-by-side windows and shortening the remaining one, which allowed us to make use of an entire wall on one side of the kitchen. Nancy also visited our property at least three times, including the day our cabinets were delivered. With Nancy’s help, our kitchen is now more functional and welcoming and will be a space that we’ll enjoy for many years.

We recently completed a renovation of our kitchen, laundry room and half bathroom. Heartwood Kitchens did an incredible job. Our cabinets are beautiful and the quality is excellent. They were extremely knowledgeable and were great to work with. They created a beautiful and very functional kitchen. I have always loved to cook but can't believe how much more I am enjoying cooking in my new kitchen. I highly recommend you speak with them if you are planning on renovating your kitchen.

We loved working with Nancy at Heartwood Kitchens. She took a lot of time with us, exploring options and presenting several design possibilities. She carefully explained benefits of particular designs and features, and gave us great recommendations for vendors for tile, plumbing fixtures, lighting, etc. We love our new kitchen and would highly recommend Nancy and her staff at Heartwood Kitchens.

We love our new kitchen. Nancy was a pleasure to work with and gave us great options/ideas to choose from as she was designing our kitchen. She was very patient and pleasant throughout the entire process and we incorporated almost all of her suggestions. We also used her husband Paul as our GC and he was fantastic to work with. He stayed on schedule through out the process. Overall the process and the outcome was even better than we had hoped for. They recommended other great people to work with including Yuri from Granite Plus for the counters, as well as Thinh for the hardwood floors and Tam at Yale Appliance. We would and have highly recommended Nancy at Heartwood and would also highly recommend Paul for any project.
