BZO Design

We hired Ben to build our cabinets in our newly remodeled kitchen. Super happy with Ben's work and his attention to detail. He has since built us cabinets in both our bathrooms and is currently working on more cabinets for one of our bedrooms. We get so many compliments on the work he's done.

I hired Ben to design and build the cabinets for a large kitchen remodel. This was a DIY kitchen remodel and the space and appliances would not allow for an off the shelf solution from the big retailers. After a number of bids, BZO came in the middle and I never go with the lowest bid when hiring a skilled craftsman. In the end, Ben came in about $1000 below his initial bid. Ben is extremely detail oriented. He was meticulous in thinking through a complex design and working with me to resolve conflicts with the layout resulting from things such as appliance dimensions and placement. It was a pleasure to work through the design iteration process to develop a kitchen that encompasses my personality and style. Ben was very accommodating to my small tweaks and changes. He came to the site to take multiple measurements and updates to his story sticks. The cabinets are the foundation of the whole kitchen design and everything else is a detail to accent them. I have a number of future projects that I hope to work with Ben on in the future. I would have no problem hiring him again.

Ben at BZO Designs built a beautiful custom built in media cabinet for my home. It was made to exact specs to fit in to the space - and it turned out great. It was more affordable than any other bid I got. I loved that the building of the cabinet was in his shop so the disruption was minimal - He had it pre-painted to match the room and it took less than a day to install the unit. Friendly, personable and easy to work with - He will be doing my kitchen when it is ready for the remodel. Highly recommend! - Justin

Ben, the owner of BZO Design, is a highly talented cabinet and furniture maker. I have been working with Ben, collaborating on projects, for more than a year. I find him intelligent, respectful, and easy to work with on any project. He communicates well, honestly, and realistically. He understands the intricacies of custom work and efficiencies of production work, combining them well when needed. His attention to detail and craftsmanship are impeccable. I highly recommend Ben for any project, large or small.

I contracted Ben to build some custom cabinets for my dining room. He's easy to work with, realistic about costs, and he's extremely talented with the saw. He obtained some of the best quartersawn white oak I've ever seen, and built everything to my specifications, guiding me along through the construction. Everything is tight and the finish is perfect. Now I'm looking around the house and wondering what will I have Ben build next?

Ben did an excellent job planning for and constructing our new kitchen. The quality of craftsmanship is unparallelled. In a house that is almost 100 years old, there were many challenges such as DIY projects done by past homeowners as well as walls and floors that weren't exactly level. He was also working within a tight time frame. Ben approached every challenge in a calm, confident way and his perfectionism lead to a beautiful end result that not only made our kitchen much more functional, but also fit with the character of the house. We could not be happier with the work that Ben provided and we look forward to having him build us a custom black walnut dining room table and benches in the future. We highly recommend BZO Design for any size project in any age home.

Ben has constructed several pieces I have custom designed for clients over the years. He is meticulous, has an incredible attention to detail and does stunning craftmanship. In the course of constructing several large pieces, he gave constructive feedback about the design details and pointed out ways to construct the pieces that made them stronger and less expensive to manufacture than I had originally designed, all the while keeping the look and function exactly as I intended for them. He produces quality work on time and budget and is a pleasure to work with. I have and will continue to return to BZO Design for production of any and all wooden furniture, cabinetry and the like.

Built cabinets for a large custom kitchen as well as several built in shelves, desk, day bed, cabinets for a large laundry room. workmanship was excellent; service, consultation and and design was to highest professional standard.
