We had them do a kitchen remodel! Our ceiling was really low with horrible lighting! We needed new counters and a breakfast bar. The whole kitchen Was retextured and painted throughout. Our experience was amazing with this team! They were always on time, professional, and allowed us to be involved in all of the decisions! The designer was fantastic!!! We would definitely refer this company to anyone that is looking for the best experience of remodeling!
Cathy and Designs With You in Mind (DWYIM) saved our renovation/remodel after we had to dismiss a contractor/designer that did not share our vision for our home. It all started when our built-in wall microwave failed, and it shared a common control panel with the wall oven. These units were original to the home and 30 years old and parts were not available and given that the oven was a 27-inch unit we wanted a larger double wall oven. As we considered how to renovate the kitchen the original designer could not seem to get what needed to be done into the existing footprint of the home. He wanted to blow out the exterior walls and increase the square footage of the home, something we did not want to do.
We found Cathy Tonks and DWYIM, from the first site visit we knew we had a winner. Cathy listened to our ideas and asked us what worked and what did not in the existing space. Since extraordinarily little worked, and we wanted a more open plan it was decided to remove several interior walls and achieve the open floor plan that we had dreamed of. Cathy was able to achieve our dream space. We now have top of the line appliances, 30-inch French Door double wall ovens, an awesome copper vent hood, and a space that is both functional and beautiful. We love our kitchen.
The DWYIM team is more than just the designers. Cathy brings top of the line crafts to the job construction, plumbing, electrical, tile, and paint all expert in their field. The crews worked clean and quickly. We were kept in the loop and we would use the craftspeople again any day.
We were so pleased with the kitchen and living spaces that we had the DWYIM team renovate the master bedroom and bath. We now have a master suite that is just drop dead gorgeous, one that will allow us to age gracefully in place.
The DWYIM team has been awesome at every step of our journey. And yes, we will recommend them to anyone.

We furnished our front room with Cathy, it turned out AMAZING. Our room is functional and beautiful. She took so many factors into consideration, from maximizing seating to choosing high quality materials that could survive our lifestyle.
She has years of experience with a wide variety of projects. Her expertise was evident as she navigated the way through the process. Highly recommend!
