Working with Liz and the team was great. Kitchen design was extremely well done, regarding kitchen flow. Liz refer all for an appliance vendor we also spot on.Pricing was extremely fair and everything was delivered on time. One issue came up from the vendor regarding a wrong stain color on a trim piece. Cranbury’s install team led by Tom addressed the issue to perfection. I will be referring them to all my clients.Thanks again looking forward to working with you again.

I called needing help with a minor cabinet resurfacing for a dishwasher to fit properly into its space. The dishwasher had a side bolt on either side of the dishwasher that created a need to open up one-eighth of an inch on both cabinet side panels. I received a referal to a very good contractor who came by 2 days later to do the job in time for the plumber to compete the install of the dishwasher. Thank you!

I have worked with Cranbury Design when we redid our 1st floor, including Kitchen and mudroom/laundry. They took down walls, reflowed my space, included details that reflected the age and character of my home. They worked extremely quickly while we lived through the renovation with a 3 month old and 2 yo at the time. We loved the results (and everyone who sees it) so we have just started with our Master Bed and Bath. The communication and workmanship has been wonderful. Everyone of their team members have been nice and respectful, my kids look forward to seeing them now. I cant wait to continue to work with them on more of our house. Honest nice people for sure!Will Post pics soon!

I scheduled an appointment for someone to come out and quote me on a kitchen remodel. I had to wait two weeks for someone to come and look at my kitchen. Then I was told, I needed to wait 10-14 days for the quote and they never sent the quote. I find that to be very unprofessional. I would never call this company again.

What a great experience! Everything from the design process, project management/ decoration, all the way through the finishing adjustments was done with great care and professionalism. Everyone from Cranbury Design was knowledgable and friendly. There were no surprises and each of the trade crews knew when to arrive and what to do. It’s been about a year since completion and we are still very happy with our kitchen!!Highly recommend with no reservations!

Pictures are worth a thousand words. New granite on island installed short of the wall despite owner's son present during installation, and the fancy laser beam computer they used to make the template. When they replaced that 1/2 of the island, I was told to pick two new slabs and the whole island granite would be replaced. It was not, leading to mismatched granite from slabs far away in sequence. They glued down one new piece for 1/2 the island and the old piece they had cut. During all this, they managed to chip the vertical backsplash which was "patched", AND the new granite came in chipped too, as you can see by the blue tape. I could go on and on of all the things that happened, but frankly I just want the nightmare to be over.

Unfortunately, I went on a recommendation of a friend, who herself had not started her kitchen redo. From day one there were problems, too numerous to list from a delay in the tile I ordered (was brought to two tiles places an hour from my home and was told the tile was IN stock. I ended up using a great tile place for my kitchen refresh (ten minutes from my house that I found on my own), to my kitchen island granite countertop being INSTALLED 1 1/2 inches short of the wall! When they "redid" the granite on the island, they chipped the backsplash which did not have to be removed (but now it needed a repair), and replaced 1/2 of my island with the ORIGINAL piece on that side, which thus ended up that my island has granite from two different slabs (completely out of order). And yes, it's noticeable. They had me choose two NEW pieces but only used one of the new pieces and glued down the old piece on 1/2 of the island (a waste of my time, and sloppy work). I wondered how they had cut and polished the entire island in less than an afternoon, and then I realized why. (I was told I was a priority..what a joke). Their "polish" job was so bad, they had to come back and polish the granite twice. I ended up ordering all of my kitchen cabinet knobs and pulls myself, after wasting yet another trip to the design center an hour away, and two afternoons, while their design "expert" tried to insist that the paint guy could just drill new holes in my cabinets to accommodate the size handles (3 1/2 inches) she thought I should use! I found the exact width (3 inches) I needed on an online website, so new holes and patch work did not need to be done. My cabinets would have been ruined if I listened to her "expert" advice. I could go on and on but frankly what was suppose to be an 8 week job, turned into a 5 month nightmare, and my blood pressure goes up every time I think about the job. Don't even get me started on the paint job they did in my kitchen. That's another whole review.

Great family, fair pricing, excellent views and ability. You get what you pay for people. I learned the hard way until I met Elizabeth and her father Frank. The Huneke's thank you!

After working with 5 different kitchen contractors for 4 months I was referred to Cranbury Design Center. I had dealt with incompetence, lack of follow through or grossly overpriced with those 5 companies. Then I met Elizabeth O'Leary at Cranbury. What a refreshing experience! I discussed my goals and ideas with her. She listened and gave me intelligent pros and cons. We came up with a layout for the cabinets and appliances that worked for me close enough to my budget. When I made a few small changes she handled them easily. The rip out and installation of cabinets and countertops went flawlessly by their in house contractors and followed the schedule that had been discussed. I'm a happy guy!

Read the Yelp review. Here is mine: We recently completed our THIRD project with C.D.C. Our most recent completion included total demolition of our existing kitchen together with a wall that separated the old kitchen from our dining room. If there is some type of an award for excellence to be given out to contractors after they finish an amazing job than Charlie Rini and Frank O'Leary get our Golden Hammer. This is not to overlook the fact that contractors are all part of the same gene pool and DNA has been known to mutate. If you expect the total completion of a job will be done on the initial promised date then you are living in LaLa Land. In any profession there are winners , those that finish the job and those that never show up. Cranbury Design Center is a winner in our opinion. Yes,they charge for a design but the charge is deducted at the end. If you are shopping for price only you are in the wrong place. We went back to Charlie and Frank for good reasons. They know what they are doing;they were always there when we called;their office staff is knowledgeable,curteous and trained to please their customers and last but certainly not least,their team of workers and sub-contractors are first rate and dependable. If we ever have another home project. C.D.C. will be the first one we call.
