From early design phase with an overwhelming number of options, Ali O'Grady was steady with her guidance and patience! White cabinets for a clean, fresh redesign of a 20 year old kitchen, complemented by a quartz counter by Surface Creations. Finding my zen each morning with blues and grays, glass, ceiling-high cabinets, and new appliances, Kitchens by Design makeover of my kitchen was a makeover for my entire home! Highest marks!

Ali White at Kitchens By Design is a gem. She is kind, patient, a good listener, communicator and a joy to work with. Kitchens By Design offers a variety of cabinetry choices for every budget. We love our new kitchen and highly recommend Ali and our contractor Greg Hartman, a great team!

Ali White and Kitchen's by Design get the highest possible review from us. We experienced no delays, great quality and design and incredible attention to detail and our needs. Our kitchen design, measuring, delivery of great cabinets, and overseeing counter top selection and delivery all came with Ali's hands on personal attention. Seriously, Ali didn't just order the cabinets, she arrived on scene four times to ensure accuracy and value: measuring for cabinets, arrival of cabinets, measuring for counter tops, and later installation of counter tops. Frankly, kitchen remodeling is stressful, but Ali made it smooth and easier than expected. Great work, reasonable cost and time from start to finish.
