The Kitchen Story

After years of investing in home improvements—from redoing floors to replacing their slider—this couple, now empty nesters living in peaceful Colchester, decided it was time to tackle one of the most frustrating spaces in their home: the kitchen. 

What used to be a cramped, outdated area with limited storage and barely enough counter space to function, is now a spacious and welcoming kitchen, thanks to Dean Cabinetry. 

The process began when the client reached out to Dean Cabinetry, feeling overwhelmed by the decisions and unsure of where to start. After sharing a video walkthrough of the kitchen with Leah, the team quickly stepped in to demystify the process. 

Not knowing what to expect, they were relieved to find that the team made the whole process clear and approachable. There was no stress—just guidance. During their tour, they met John and Kevin, reviewed a basic plan, and got a solid sense of pricing. From the start, everything felt organized and easy to follow.

When it came time for installation, Joe stood out. The clients noted he was friendly, approachable, and always checked in with questions to make sure things were done right. When a little issue came up with the molding, he didn’t hesitate—he promised to fix it and followed through.

The finished space features Fabuwood’s Galaxy line. Clean, framed cabinetry in Frost make up the perimeter, around a bold Indigo for the island.

Calacatta Abezzo countertops bring an upscale, polished feel. Functional upgrades like a pull-out spice rack and a sleek cleaning supply organizer keep things tidy and efficient. 

The backsplash—subway tile in Montauk Gin white from TileBar—adds a subtle texture, tying the whole design together.

Now, the space is warm, cozy, sleek, and—most importantly—functional! The kitchen has become a place they enjoy spending time in, rather than working around. It’s a transformation that reflects not just their style, but their lifestyle.
