The Buzz

Everyone in your company is terrific!

I just wanted to send a quick email of thanks—Dean was just at our house an adjusted two drawers that needed servicing. Dean is fabulous! He’s always so personable, a pleasure to chat with and a complete expert with cabinets!

This was the second time he was here (for very minor adjustments) in the 7 years since you installed our kitchen. I’m very appreciative he made the time to get here & fix the drawers!

We purchased our kitchen from Jennifer Durfee- she was fabulous! She designed my dream kitchen—which after 7 years is still in wonderful shape and is everything I ever wanted in a kitchen! Everyone in your company is terrific and your customer service is excellent! I continue to recommend you to anyone I know needing a new kitchen. As someone in the service industry, these have been difficult days with supply & staff issues— it’s especially nice to receive a bit of gratitude—your company is very deserving!

Congrats in your new space and wishing you continued success!

Fantastic Partnership!

We quickly bonded with Jen Durfee at Topnotch Design Studio, who worked by our side with infinite patience and a perfect eye to design the kitchen-of-our-dreams. Her network of suppliers was equally helpful, and Jen was there every step of the way to coordinate the final product. You won’t get us out of our new kitchen anytime soon, but I’d work with Jen on another renovation anytime! She is fun and the work product is impeccable!”

Nothing but wonderful…

We have worked with Topnotch Design Studio on multiple occasions, and each one of those occasions has been nothing but wonderful! Their work speaks for itself, and their staff are the most professional and pleasurable people to work with. We always refer our clients to Topnotch and their responses have always been the same as ours, how much of a delight it is to work with their designers. They are always 100% satisfied with their work and so are we. We have never been disappointed with any of their work and would highly recommend Topnotch Design Studio for any of your upcoming Kitchen or Bath design and installation needs!”

PBZ Construction

Pleased to say we chose Topnotch…

We spent a lot of time researching who to use to remodel our kitchen. We are very pleased to say we chose Topnotch Design! We knew we wanted a kitchen with very clean lines and a transitional / modern look. Top Notch understood what we wanted, and provided great options, including suggestions on details and features that complemented the design and enhanced what we were thinking about. Jacque was very helpful with tile and paint selections to complete the process. We will enjoy this kitchen for years to come!”

Truly Top Notch…

Top Notch Kitchen Design is truly TOP NOTCH. From start to finish, they delivered everything that they promised, from start time of installation, quality of products clean, neat expert installation.We are so happy with our new kitchen,It transformed our house into a showplace ! If you want the best Top Notch is the place for you”

Jim Lundy

Communication was seamless…

We had to redo our kitchen due to water damage. The communication between me, my insurance company and my contractor with Top Notch was seamless. Our designer came to our home and immediately knew the best way to maximize function and storage. She helped us coordinate tile, countertop, sink, and appliances with the new kitchen cabinets. The install was meticulously done, taking into account the dips in our ceiling and floors and fitting our appliances. Now that the heat is on, we have found a small crack in our cabinet (covered by the warranty) and Top Notch quickly responded and will replace the cabinet for us without us having to talk to the cabinet manufacturer ourselves. We love our new kitchen and the way it flows with the rest of the house. Many of our friends and family have commented on how nice it looks. We couldn’t have done this without Top Notch!”

The end result was beautiful…

We really enjoyed working with Jennifer Durfee! She developed a design that met our kitchen needs. Our kitchen was definitely the least stressful part of our full house renovation. The end result was beautiful and the kitchen is my favorite part of the house!”

Patient, professional and accommodating…

Thank You so much Jacque. We will enjoy it and we will toast all the people who made our experience with you and Topnotch such a pleasure.You were all so patient, professional and accommodating.”

 

Clicked right away…

Mary Norris worked with my family in redesigning our kitchen. After meeting with her the first time, our personalities clicked right away. She understood what we were looking for and helped us achieve that in every way. She was patient with my mothers decision making, understanding of changes my mother wanted to make last minute and extremely helpful. She pointed us in the right direction with the types of cabinates we would want and the kind of island that would work best for our family. She helped us with the color of the countertops we wanted and even helped us all the way down to the lighting. All of the people that this company used to install all parts of our kitchen were amazing. I would highly recommend this company and would HIGHLY recommend Mary Norris!”

The Rooney Family

 

I love every single cabinet…

Jacque – I can’t tell you how gorgeous I think the cabinets are!!!! I LOVE every single cabinet. People come in & love the kitchen… I LOVEEEEEEE EVERYTHING! I’m toasting you, Chris and my cabinets!”

Christine Levine-Dover

 

With us throughout the journey…

We worked with Patty at Topnotch design during our full kitchen remodel in 2016. Patty was incredibly helpful and thoughtful throughout the entire process. From helping to pick an excellent quality cabinet that was within our price range to finding the perfect shade of white, she was with us throughout the journey. The design is perfect. Patty worked with our architect to find creative ways to utilize every square foot in a way that functions well in our busy household. Dean and the installation team could not be more professional and precise. Chris is a true expert who helped to give us tips to keep our cabinets looking fresh. Finally, some of our cabinets had some minor issues. Dean was receptive and incredibly responsive and helped to make sure our product was replaced where needed.”

Changed how we live…

We are loving our new kitchen! It has changed how we live- TRULY! We love it!”

Jen Ryan Schultz

 

Everyone has been impressed…

We just love our new kitchen. And everyone who has come to visit has been impressed. My daughter-in-law said “I feel like I’m in a kitchen design magazine.” My best friend whose greatest compliment never goes farther then “It’s nice”, said “It’s beautiful!” And my mother who is a tough and critical cookie from Connectitcut came in and her mouth dropped open. In all my 66 years, I’ve never seen my mother’s mouth drop open!!”

Simply the best…

Simply put Mary Norris is the best! From start to finish she was completely professional and whenever an issue came up she was quick to respond and correct any minor issues. I can’t recommend her highly enough.”

Steve O’Neil

 

Exceeded all of my wishes…

I just wanted to take the time to let you know how pleased I am with my new kitchen. Jacqueline did an amazing job in her design and it shows! She took so much pressure off of me by making the process so smooth and exceeded all of my wishes. Her tastes and styles were everything I wanted and I wasn’t even sure exactly what I wanted or how to fill this blank space. This kitchen is the main focal point of the house and when someone walks in the first thing they say is ‘WOW!! I LOVE IT!!’ I cant wait until I move in and fully enjoy all that it has to offer…A+ service from start to finish. I couldn’t be happier. Thanks so much!!”

Delighted with the results…

Patty Winberg and her staff at Topnotch Design studio helped us think through what we needed and wanted in our kitchen upgrade. We discussed the new cabinets and how they would look and function. With every step, we were efficiently given the next step in our decision making. They helped facilitate the renovation and were available for all our questions and concerns. We are delighted with the results”

Barbara Pollans

 

Installed beautifully…

We had a great experience working with Topnotch Design Studio on our master bath renovation. The cabinets were designed and installed beautifully. Jacque was extremely helpful designing the cabinetry and tracking down specific marble for our countertop. She also helped with other aspects of the project, including designing the floor plan, finding a contractor, and deciding on tile, fixtures, and colors. She was available from start to finish. We truly appreciate all her efforts and love our final product!”

Melissa Johnson Liu

 

Always available…

I worked with Jennifer Durfee of Topnotch Design for my dream kitchen in the spring of 2018. Jennifer was absolutely amazing to work with. She was always available and answered questions promptly & professionally. Jennifer has a sixth sense when designing a kitchen; she listens intently to your needs but also gives you fantastic ideas that work out perfectly in the design. The quality of the cabinets and the work quality of the installation is nothing less than perfection. I’m beyond thrilled with my new kitchen; its not only my beautiful dream kitchen but functions like a dream as well. I highly recommend Jennifer and will definitely be using her in the future for a master bath remodel. Jennifer and Topnotch design will meet your deadlines and stay within your budget to provide you with your dream kitchen.”

Guided through seamlessly…

My husband and I renovated our kitchen under the expertise of designer Mary Norris in 2017. Mary was a pleasure to work with! She had a large knowledge base and was able to guide us through the process seamlessly. The project could sometimes get overwhelming, but Mary helped us with the many decisions that we had to make, always considering our ultimate goals and budget. Our kitchen project entailed removing a wall separating the old kitchen/dining room, then redesigning the space which included relocating our stove, sink and dishwasher, extending the existing hardwood floor in the old dining room into the kitchen area which was originally tile, and installing all new cabinetry. Overall, Mary was very responsive and professional throughout the project. She provided us with her expertise while keeping on budget and always did so in a pleasant, friendly and professional manner. We would highly recommend working with Mary Norris without hesitation”

Exactly what I envisioned…

My kitchen renovation is now complete and I couldn’t be happier with how it turned out. It is exactly what I envisioned. Jacque was a pleasure to work with and very knowledgeable. The installer, Chris, did an amazing job down to every detail. The actual install only took a week, which was exactly the time frame they told me.”

Thank you!!
Maureen Neureuter

 

Could not be happier…

We could not be happier with Top Notch Design. Mary Norris was amazing! She was so patient when we made changes & she has incredible knowledge of all the products.”

Thanks!
Mike & Catherine

 

Very high standards…

Transforming our kitchen was no easy task and, after much research, my husband and I chose to work with Jennifer Durfee at Topnotch. Jennifer’s relaxed and gracious yet professional and efficient manner were much appreciated during the entire and lengthy renovation process. Not once did Jennifer, a busy mom of two, express frustration or annoyance with the hiccups that naturally occurred. She always remained warm and stayed in communication with phone calls or texts. Without exception, we highly recommend Jennifer to help design anyone’s dream kitchen. We had very high standards and everything was met thanks to Jennifer and her team! We wouldn’t change anything.”

You WON’T be disappointed…

Topnotch Design Studio is AMAZING!!! Patty and her entire staff have helped us design two kitchens, pantries and bathrooms and I cannot say one bad thing about them. Their name says it all “Top Notch”…Hire them, you WON’T be disappointed!!”

Wendy Chipman

 

Surpasses my expectations…

Last year I renovated my kitchen using Topnotch Kitchen Designs. My new kitchen surpasses my expectations, it is truly a beautiful and functional centerpiece to my home. Jacque, my designer at Topnotch, understood how to make my ideas and style come together in a real cook’s kitchen. I would highly recommend Jacque and Topnotch to friends and family.”

Denise Beaudoin

 

I would have done this years ago…

If I had any idea it would be so easy and the design so beautiful, I would have done this years ago.
Mary is the best in the business!! She guided me through a process that terrifies most people, but she held my hand and the results are amazing. I come into my kitchen every day and love it. LOVE IT!!! I love the choices she helped me make, I love the granite, the cabinets, and the sink (which I wasn’t sure of-but she was right) everything about my kitchen is perfect. It inspires me to have guests, to cook, and to entertain.

I am so proud of the end result.

My home is very modest compared to some of the kitchens Topnotch has done, which is a testament in itself. You don’t’ need to have a huge home, the average modest home is also your area of expertise. When I first came into the show room, I thought this was way out of my price range and my home just wouldn’t fit what your studio can do. I couldn’t have been more wrong.

The Topnotch team can take something so simple and make it grand, and in my case that is exactly what they did. I couldn’t be happier, and the entire process was so painless.”

Best,
Mary

 

Such a wonderful crew…

Such a wonderful crew at top notch. From the planning to the installation we just love our kitchen.”

Absolutely love the kitchen!

The kitchen is so spacious. The island is gorgeous. It will truly be the heart of the home. Your attention to detail and functionality is reflective in the design.”

Everything came out just right…

It was great working with Jacque of Topnotch Design Studio. She was very patient and professional all the way. My hubby and I were very satisfied with how our kitchen came out. It is so beautiful with full back splash in Cambria Brittanica. Project was completed in a timely manner. I really liked how she took time out to coordinate with my general contractor and Direct Granite in ensuring that everything came out just right!! I will certainly recommend her to friends and family. From a very satisfied client.”

 Much easier than we ever thought…

We LOVE the kitchen! This whole process has been much easier than we ever thought it would be. Top Notch has been excellent. Thanks again.”

Can’t say enough…

Can’t say enough about Topnotch. Our new kitchen is beyond what I could have imagined. The layout is such an improvement and makes everything you do in the kitchen easy! What a relief. Patty’s expertise, advice and eye for the details are second to none. Everyone we worked with were very professional, from Dean, to Lou and Rhonda. Thank you for my dream kitchen!!! I appreciate it everyday!”

Talk about thinking outside of the box…

From our very first point of contact with Topnotch Studio we felt as though we would be in the very best hands when it came to our kitchen overhaul/remodel. Due to the age of our home and some pretty big obstacles to overcome because of the existing structure, the ideas that Topnotch offered to maximize our space were brilliant! Talk about thinking outside of the box. The finished product, which is amazing, was a collaboration of a smart and well thought out plan from the pros at Topnotch and a tremendous amount of inspirational ideas from Houzz. I can’t say enough about our experience with Patty and her team at Topnotch.”

Graceann Zenga

 

Had the best experience with Topnotch Design Studio…

I have had the best experience with Topnotch Design Studio. The entire team, from design to installation were extremely professional. They did exactly what they said they would do, on time. The team was very helpful with the design of the kitchen and baths. They helped us get the most from the space and stay within the budget. I would highly recommend them! Thank you for an awesome job!”

Everything is ordered and installed the right way…

Topnotch Design Studios lives up to their name and are literally TOP NOTCH when it comes to designing and installing kitchens! We are a stone surface fabrication and installation company. All jobs we install stone countertops at for a Topnotch kitchen are done flawless because of the proper planning they take to ensure everything is ordered and installed the right way. It has been a pleasure working with Topnotch for the past few years and we look forward to working with them in the future!”

Responsive and reliable…

Hey Patty and Dean I just wanted to drop you a quick note with regard to Will the installer. He is OUTSTANDING. A very good craftsman, a good guy, very responsive and reliable…on and on. He puts his headphones on and gets the job done quickly and perfectly. I have had many subs on my project and by far he is the best. I’m in this business and have hired some really good people. I can be a pain, and want things “perfect.” Will and both of you have given me that. Thanks all. I look forward to finishing up the project soon.

Although I work on the commercial side of this firm I will ABSOLUTELY send anyone and everyone who needs any kitchen or bath design, cabinets, etc., in your direction.”

Thanks
F. Paul Frederick, AIA

 

It looks AMAZING!!!

I just wanted to write you a short note on the Kitchen at the Cape. It looks AMAZING!!! I love it so much. It’s beachy, simple, yet elegant at the same time. Everything is so nice. The vanities also look great in each bathroom.

Lou was great, and he did a fantastic job on the install. You are lucky to have him! Topnotch exceeded all my expectations and you were so great to work with from the start to finish and everything in between. Mostly, I am thankful for you helping me see that the house wasn’t going the way it needed when the walls went up in places they shouldn’t have been. Thank you so much for that. It’s now everything I could have wanted.

You’re what every business should be like. It was such a pleasure working with you as well as the installers.”

Talk soon!

Thanks again,

A great job…

Jacque did a great job guiding us through the design process. She solved problems, tolerated our changes, and created a great cat feeding station. We love our gray cabinets, white counters, and orange backsplash. Installation went smoothly and all on the punch list was completed.”
