Kitchen & Bathroom Designers in Connecticut

“Jonathan took the vision I had for our living room and made it a reality. He shared his tips and introduced us to local antique shops and professionals. Old furniture touched up and reupholstered along with unique touches, like Moroccan window screens as valances, make the room feel personal and inviting. I would work with Jonathan again and recommend him in a heartbeat.”

“This is not a typical review, but our association is unique and I trust that yours would be the same if you were to select Irene Design as your consultant. We met Irene at a home show. We had been thinking about remodeling the interior of our home, but wanted a design consultant to work with us. We contracted with Irene Design to be our consultant. During the first visit to our home to take pictures and discuss with us, what we liked and disliked, I pointed out to her that the carrying partition on the first flow did not run parallel to the outside wall. Thus, any pattern in the flooring would also appear to diverge from the wall. Irene, immediately suggested that the tiles be installed at a 45 degree angle, which totally eliminated the problem. We then continued to work with Irene on the layout of the bathrooms, the wallpaper selection and the carpeting to mention only a small portions of the interactions we had with her in arriving at a design that met our needs and tastes. We had differences with Irene, but in each case Irene was always open to our suggestions. We would sit and discuss the pros and cons of each change and were always able to arrive at a decision that best met our needs. Once, we had finalized the design, we prepared a bid specification setting out exactly what we expected the contractor to do and what we would supply. This bid specification was given to 4 separate contractors including Irene Design. It should be noted that Irene had assured us that she would work with whichever contractor we selected to assure us that the design, such as the tile layouts in the bathrooms would be done as she had planned. While all four contractor bids were fairly close, Irene Designs bid was slightly less, so we selected them to perform the construction. At the same time we had also contracted with an electrician and a painter/wallpaper hanger. The electrician did an excellent job, however the painter made some serious errors in prepping the stair case walls for papering. After several attempts by the paper hanger to repair the problems, it became evident that all the paper in the stair case would have to be remove, the wall repaired and primed correctly and then repaper the whole area. Irene Design, on learning of this said that they would do the repair work at cost to help us out of this difficult situation. For these reasons, we highly recommend Irene Design if you are considering a remodeling project. If you would like to discuss our experience with Irene Design, we would welcome your calls”

“We worked with Hartley & Hill Design to completely renovate and redesign our kitchen last summer. They were fantastic and we cannot say enough about how wonderful they were. We met with them and described the concepts that we wanted (functional and classic, keeping in mind that we like to entertain, but we have small children and a busy family life). They put together the design and sat down with us to explain their ideas very thoroughly and also run through the budget. They came up with a fantastic design that we never would have thought possible, incorporating very creative ideas, while still keeping in mind our budget as well as our personal preferences. It was a very collaborative process, with us being as involved as we wanted to be, but not feeling like we had to manage a project; they expertly managed the project for us! All of the subcontractors they hired were first class. The renovation was very well organized, there was consistent open communication, any hiccups along the way (as will happen in any project this size) were managed smoothly and effectively. Needless to say, we are thrilled with the end result. We can't wait to use them again soon to redesign our dining room/living room area. We would highly recommend them!”

“We worked with Bob from S&CK for a completely renovated townhouse in Southport. he was extraordinary from the very beginning. He managed my expectations, and he helped us find exactly the right combination of kitchen cabinets to countertops, in very different materials, but completing styles. He was patient, knowledgeable, and professional, always. I am extremely happy with the finished project and will use Bob and Shore & Country Kitchens again, hopefully in the near future for another remodel.”

“I've known the Bilotta's for close to 20 years now - beginning when they would bring their clients into a showroom I worked in. The care and the personal service they gave to their clients, with focused attention on all of the smallest details, it was heartwarming. Now we have a closer working relationship, and it's still this customized and personalized service that stands out. It's a pleasure working with the entire team.”

“The East Hill Cabinetry team is professional, responsible, affordable and personable. They were able to help us design our dream kitchen on a budget that we could afford. They continually demonstrate exemplary knowledge in the field and are able to tackle any questions or design challenges with options and details. We received our cabinets in a reasonable amount of time and in great condition. Every interaction was friendly, positive, and productive. The additional resource of a personal design stylist helped us to translate our imagination into practical elements. We would highly recommend this company - and in fact we have already done so for the entire neighborhood.”

“I recently had a new granite countertop installed in my kitchen. I was very satisfied with the quality of the product but especially pleased with the level of service I received from Rose Hill. I worked with Matt Devino who answered every question I had no matter how inconsequential. His level to detail and responsiveness at every phase were exceptional. His workers were professional and made sure that I was pleased with the final product. I plan to use Rose Hill again when I do my bathrooms.”

“I have had my kitchen done by gallery of kitchen and I must say it was the best experience I've ever had.”

“We have been working with Mr. Handyman of Greater Fairfield County for a while now on over a dozen projects and highly recommend their work. As a countertop fabricator who works with architects, builders, designers and homeowners, we truly understand the importance of organization and attention to detail in every step of a remodeling process. Mr. Handyman keeps a very tight schedule and expects their subcontractors to uphold the same standard. This makes for a far less stressful environment for everyone involved and always leads to a better end result. The design work of Linda and Noreen is forward-thinking in concept and practical from every standpoint. We watch as they work alongside their clients to address the homeowner's desires while fitting it in a realistic budget to find the perfect balance. Mr. Handyman demonstrates time and time again that remodeling can be an enjoyable journey when done properly!”

“Working with Erica and Showcase Kitchen when remodeling my kitchen was a great experience. She was on mark with every detail. The family owned business was friendly and personable on each and every visit. It has been nearly three years since my kitchen has been done and it still is my favorite room in the house. I loved what they did so much, that this year I hired them for my bathroom and my closet. The level of attention and costumer service was worth every penny and I would recommend them for any home build or remodel.”
