We could not be happier with the final outcome of our project. Joyce's designs far surpassed our expectations - she was able to really maximize the space and provide us with a design that was extremely functional. Joyce noticed that our architect's original plans for our kitchen, baths, and laundry areas were limiting. With her input, we were able to change around the those rooms so that they were more open and spacious. Joyce takes everything into account and draws up the plans herself with your input. As for the cabinets, the quality and installation is clearly first class. We get so many compliments on our new home and we know that it would not have turned out so nicely without Joyce's input from start to finish. We highly recommend Cuvee for your next project.
Description of Work: We built a fully custom home and Joyce Cessar handled the design of our kitchen and bathrooms as well as provided the cabinets and installation.

Contacted Cuvee based on recommendations from others and given their reputation for very high quality work. When we were actually able to get them to respond, they were very professional and competent. However, it was VERY difficult to get them to follow up on anything or respond to phone calls. Extremely frustrating (on the order of weeks to get a response). Always very professional when they did respond, but we eventually just gave up. The final contact we were told they would be available for a phone conversation in a week and a half. We had heard this from their other clients as well but did not realize how significant the problem would be. We have gone with another, far more responsive company. Problem is likely that they are simply too busy. Unfortunate.
Description of Work: Provided conceptual plans for master bathroom, powder room, guest bathroom, and two other bathrooms. All remodels.

Joyce is fabulous at listening and extremely concerned about addressing the details you want in your design. She is very professional and knows her products as well as related products extremely well. The workers Joyce hires are all professional and do a terrific job. The adjunct people she recommends are also top-quality. In the two jobs we've completed together thusfar, the scheduling has been right on target. I've met several other people who have used Joyce and they all have loved her. Although I've never worked with her, I've heard only good things about Ida as well.
Description of Work: I am currently working with Joyce at Cuvee for a third project. We have used her in the past for a new second kitchen as well as a highly detailed entertainment center. Currently we are wrapping up a large kitchen renovation and moving onto a master bath, a small bath and two large master closets.

As above - she is very poor with keeping pace of the project once underway. Thank goodness we hired our own contractors who were wonderful.
Description of Work: Adequate design (Joyce Cessar) but very poor responsiveness, follow-up. Left us hanging mid-project for weeks. Never finished the design details. Said helping me design and select a backsplash was not included in the design!! A year and a half later we still have not completed the entire kitchen and are hiring another designer to complete the project.

Excellent company to work with. She would bend over backwards to help you. Her name is Idamay McKarnal who runs the company.It was a basically a new construction from the wall and the ground up. It was a difficult design I had vaulted ceilings and it was eleven and a half feet wide which made it hard to put full sized cabinets on both sides. We both came up with a design where we'd have full sized cabinets on one wall and upper cabinets one the other wall with a huge glass front, twelve inch deep cabinet which was probably five feet wide, and a center island down the middle. She bent over backwards and the design was done, the appliances came in. The dimensions of the appliances were not correct int their brochures and so changes had to be made in doors to accommodate the appliances, the vents had to be replaced. But that was no fault of her own. She bent over backwards to get everything that was needed and all her workers were there a few times just to get everything done and redo the drawers and the manufacturer came in and looked at the job after it was done and took pictures. That was how much the company was impressed with what she had designed. I have nothing but good things to say about her.

They told me that they do not do that. They service the appliances they sell, but it was not a negative situation.
Description of Work: I called them to see if they could repair my refrigerator.

Quite enjoyable to work with. Good quality products at a reasonable price. Very experienced with great attention to detail. Nothing in the Design really needed changed. Would use Cuvee Kitchens again. Follow up on little things takes some reminding. They are quite busy. We still are waiting to hear back on a faucet issue and it has been 3 months.
Description of Work: Completely remodeled our Kitchen.

They were very responsible. They came up with an excellent design. The work they did was timely. They gave us good access to various suppliers of appliances. We used them for kitchen work prior to this particular job.
Description of Work: They did a bathroom remodeling job. They did the design and purchasing of the bathtub tile as well. They recommended a construction contractor for the actual construction.

HER DESIGN WAS VERY GOOD. SHE HAS AN UNDERSTANDING OF HER CUSTOMERS WANTS AND NEEDS. THE PRODUCTS ARE GOOD AND REALLY NICE. SHE EVEN HAS A SHOWROOM TO SHOW OPTIONS.
Description of Work: IDA DESIGNED A NEW KITCHEN, PRESENTED PRODUCTS FOR MY CHOOSING, ORDERED THE PRODUCTS, AND HANDLED THE SUBCONTRACTORS.
I heard great things about this firm's work and although Ida was very nice when she finally came after one missed appointment, she never followed up. She told me twice that she would have something worked up for me to remodel my kitchen and I never heard from her again.
Description of Work: Kitchen remodel - new cabinets, lighting, countertops and appliances.
