Cucina di Cannelora

Lisa is incredibly talented and very thoughtful in her design. She’s made my life so much more enjoyable in the kitchen, taking into consideration my small space and my arthritis. Incredible I love cooking now. She has also convinced me that less is more. My kitchen appears so much bigger now without the unnecessary cabinets, yet I have so much more space for storage. The design recommendations were so beneficial to the enjoyment of my home. She is truly a jewel.

I just love working with Lisa! She gave us excellent design advice for our bathrooms. Lisa has exquisite taste. She is smart, deadline-​driven and professional in every way. I have seen many of her projects and she never fails to impress. If you’re interested in a gorgeous kitchen or bathroom, Cucina di Cannelora is the best.

I am a contractor and I have worked with Cucina on several projects and every client has been extremely happy with the detailed, knowledgeable service Lisa and Stevie have provided. Kitchens and baths require an excruciating level of detail and the details really do matter. Double bullnose corner tiles, grout colors, grout spacing, accent tile, sconce placement, light fixtures… They handle it all and with a real design flair and an eye for real life durability and usability

My spouse and I live in a condo with cheap fixtures. We didn’t like the sink, the counters, flooring or cabinets. The layout made no sense. Our kitchen was something we endured not enjoyed.
We didn’t have any experience with a kitchen remodel nor the time to devote to learning how to do one — on the job. We talked with a couple contractors, went to a kitchen showroom but at no time did we feel like one person would or could be in charge of our remodel.
Fortunately, I had heard about Lisa Cannelora from my business partner and we visited her showroom where she listened to what we wanted, came up with a proposal, found us a terrific contractor she had worked with previously, formulated the plans, purchased, all the materials, and supervised their installation. She worked closely with the contractor so everything went smoothly and we were barely involved.
What did we get? The kitchen we wanted and now love. A project that came in UNDER BUDGET and WITHIN the stated time frame. I can’t imagine this project coming together better. Working with Lisa was a delight.

Lisa and Stevie are fantastic. Detail oriented, hardworking, and charming. I’ve witnessed how well they treat their clients and take their clients best interest into consideration at all times. Very well respected, and knowledgeable. If you need kitchen, bath or entire house advice and direction call Lisa and let her and her team guide you every step of the way. Great job guys.

Lisa and staff modified our original ideas to give us an entirely new floor plan w/​greater efficiency and space while maintaining the prime original architectural features of our 75 year old kitchen. She coordinated closely with the contractor before and during construction, removing much of the burden from us. Her services during construction are a significant advantage.
Her advice on color selection and lighting was very helpfull and in the end, very successful. She is familiar with relevant portions of the building codes. We have a much better kitchen remodel than we would otherwise have had thanks to her and her staff.

Lisa Cannelora designed and managed our kitchen remodel in the fall of 2010. We couldn’t be happier with the result. It’s better than we could have expected. All the extra details that she took care of are showing up for us everyday.
When we first decided to remodel our kitchen we were overwhelmed with the design and construction process. When we came to Lisa it was clear that her experience, taste and talent for design gave us confidence that our kitchen would be beautiful as well as functional. Her guidance through the whole process was indispensable. My wife and I often said to each other that we didn’t know how we would’ve managed the thousands of decisions without Lisa. Her calm, patient and professional attitude helped us through what could have been a very stressful process. It was her ability to take us step by step through the design and construction process that eliminated the «stressed-​out overwhelming» experience we saw in others who went through a remodel on their own. Her services were indispensable to the success of our remodel making it an interesting and even a fun experience.
From the beginning she took the time to understand how we used our kitchen and what we needed. I remember her looking through our cabinets to see what we kind of food and storage we needed. She even measured our counter top appliances to make sure they would fit in the drawers and cabinets. She asked to see how we worked in the kitchen. We got a kitchen that was custom designed for our use.
She was always available by phone and email for any question that we had. She always returned calls and messages promptly. Her referrals to reputable quality contractors were very helpful. Especially her suggestion to go with Walker Construction Co. Daryl Walker was great. She also referred us to quality suppliers and contractors and acted as a liaison through the length of the whole project — saving us a lot of time and concern. We saved countless hours because of her referrals to everything from tile suppliers and granite fabricators to bar stool suppliers and lighting experts. She was on site regularly guiding the contractors and answering any questions they had. She was able to respond to any problems quickly and decisively allowing the project to stay on schedule. It was Lisa Cannelora’s involvement that allowed our project to come in ahead of schedule and on budget with no problems or compromises in the design.
Lisa Cannelora has a great reputation with all the contractors and suppliers that we met during the process.
We loved the painted Merit cabinets we purchased from her. All of the modern features and quality construction exceeded our expectations. The sinks, hardware, and material that we purchased through her were quality products at a bargain price.
The whole process with Lisa was amazing. We would recommend her wholeheartedly.

Before I had a chance to work with Lisa, I had experienced nightmarish remodels, and was pretty gun shy about ever attempting another. But Lisa, the owner of Cucina di Cannelora, changed all that. She designed my new kitchen remodel, as well as managed every aspect of the project. I LOVE my new kitchen, and it was actually fun to do! Lisa lives by integrity. She has a no nonsense approach and really listens. She’s fun to work with, offers sensible solutions, and never misses a beat from beginning to end. I didn’t think twice about who to call when it was time for my bathroom remodel. Again, Lisa had all the resources and pulled the project together. I can honestly recommend Lisa Cannelora, because I’ve seen the difference between a really good designer and all the rest. Her design ideas are beautiful, thoughtful, professional and inspiring. Then she takes the next step to move the process along painlessly all the way to completion — hands on, with style.

We love our new kitchen. Lisa made it so easy for us to go through the process of remodeling. Everyday we walk into our kitchen it is more amazing. The ideas and the design she drew for us fit our home perfectly. We would recommend her over and over again.
