“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”

“Ann was very professional and always punctual. There were many details she added that I never would have thought of. She stayed within our budget and was one step ahead of us through the whole project. She was terrific to work with and I would highly recommend her to others. I love love love my new kitchen.

“We did remodeling for our kitchen and bathroom with New England Kitchen and Bath. Very helpful and organized staff. Amazing ideas. Designers help us to build the most beautiful kitchen and very unique bathroom. Five stars!”

“Matt Modglin of Kitchen Living is both creative and detailed. He has an excellent eye for design, and immediately provided solutions for our kitchen. He asked about our budget and made a point of staying within it. He also kept us apprised of the delivery schedule, updating us as needed. Kitchen Living sets a very high standard for customer service, and Matt is a real pleasure to work with..”

“Covenant Kitchens and Baths were so professional. The first console was to make a wish list, cut out pictures from magazines for ideas.They listened much while I talked. Next was the team making a picture draft for me to see so I had an idea of what my Kitchen and bath would look like ahead of time. This way I could make revisions. There were so many options from the best to mid grade material. Nothing was forced on me but I was given many options.to choose from... While we were going through renovations all the workers were respectful that we were still living in our home. I had a great project manager who I was able to contact anytime. Also I was able to consult with Kira the designer at multiple times. They were all very available. In my kitchen I really wanted a shelf above my island and Gerard the owner really made that work for me even though it was a tricky add on...I love not seeing any outlet plugs on the walls, thats a must for Gerade.They showed up everyday and meet all the deadlines.. I would highly recommend Covent Kitchen and Baths. They will meet all your expectations...”

“Guidance in layout, colors and helping us to discover what future owners may like in a kitchen were the objectives that we were looking for in a kitchen remodeler. We found just that and more in Paul at Dreammaker. While helping us to find styles and colors we liked, they kept us advised of the price of our choices and kept us from making color mistakes. We were very happy with the construction process. We were amazed at the speed of the demolition and that the team contained the dust quite well. Their team worked hard to stay on schedule and actually finished a bit ahead! They were great in helping us through changes to the plan that we or they found necessary. Their new layout gave us more room so we are no longer bumping into each other and made the room seem so much bigger. We have gotten many complements on the kitchen remodel especially on the back splash and counter space. All in all they did a great job that we have been happy to show off.”

“Complete demolition of our 25 year old kitchen. Floor to ceiling. Approximately 50 drawers/cabinets, including 7 glass cabinets. Quartz countertops. Tile flooring. All lighting upgraded to LED. Installation of 6 appliances, 2 sinks. Our new kitchen is truly an "Award Kitchen." Absolutely beautiful. The attention to details was superior. Considering the scope of this project, we had minimal problems, all of which, were corrected quickly. Guest bathroom was remodeled at the same time to match the kitchen...also beautiful. I would most definitely recommend this company!”

“Michael Weitz was extremely attentive to our needs and has a great command of his subs. He managed a massive renovation of our house in Mansfield over a period of years (2002 through 2006). First, he created a master bedroom suite. We invited him back to renovate our kitchen, add a foyer, fireplace, and 2 car garage with suite over. We would turn to him again for future projects that we can't handle ourselves!”

“This is a husband-and-wife team. Renee handles the design and Ken acts as the contractor. Renee did a wonderful job helping us design our kitchen so that it functions well, and is stunningly beautiful. I showed her a photo of a kitchen that I loved the "feel" of, and she was able to give us the same feel without copying the individual elements of the kitchen I admired, and we were able to incorporate many custom features that are particularly useful to our family and lifestyle. Also, I was impressed that our kitchen is a very different style from other kitchens she has designed, reflecting my husband's and my taste. She has a wonderful eye for color and style, and was able to guide us and tell us if she thought something we liked might not look right (and she was correct). Ken manages his subcontractors very well, so that the construction schedule runs smoothly and the project is finished in a timely manner. Also, the quality of the people he hires is very high, and I was very comfortable having them in my home without supervision.”
