“We are more than satisfied with the service and results we received from M&R Kitchens. Our designers, met with us early on, and provided three different plans and a number of other suggestions before we decided on a kitchen design that worked well for us. The variety of different woods, designs, counters and handles to choose from at the showroom was also impressive and we enjoyed being able to match what worked best for us both price and taste-wise. Additionally, our designed was very clear about what was and was not included very useful for first time renovators and she continued to be available in the lead up to the renovation as we had questions. Installation of our kitchen went very smoothly, taking two days. Our installers were friendly, courteous and flexible, helpfully working around our electrician, which was appreciated. Overall, we had a very good experience with M&R Kitchens and would be happy to recommend the company to others considering renovations. Thank you!”

“We were excited; it was our turn to redo our kitchen. But the spirit of fear was upon us. We were feeling overwhelmed with all the choices that were offered to us everywhere... Then we heard of M&R Kitchens and their quality of products and services. We knew we had found the right people to guide us along our new journey! With M&R Kitchens, we were provided with a kitchen designer who asked the right questions. With all the ideas, the extras and different quality of wood, counters, handles and so much more; she was able to connect with our needs, our budget and our taste. After many plans of different prices, we had a better understanding of what we wanted, what we could afford and what we could do without according to our budget. The installers were great; everything was done with professionalism, courtesy and respect. We enjoyed our journey with M&R Kitchens. The final product is that we have a beautiful kitchen. For us it is a piece of art! We would gladly recommend M&R Kitchens to anyone who desires their journey to be one of complete commitment and wonderful people.”

“Our experience at M&R Kitchens was a positive one from start to finish. Although our remodelling was a small ensuite with the time spent on design was equivalent to a much larger renovation. Our designer was always flexible and accommodated our tight budget. She gave us numerous ideas of where to spend our money and where we could spend less without sacrificing the end product. We were delighted with the end result. The installation was on time and was carefully executed and completed. The installation coordinator kept in touch with us to ensure our satisfaction. We would highly recommend MR Kitchens.”

“We wanted to express our appreciation to M&R Kitchens for the fine job you did on our kitchen renovation. The work was done exactly as promised and the workmen who came were all very pleasant to have around the house. Our especial appreciation to your kitchen designers for the aesthetic sensibility he brought to the task and his excellent suggestions, all of which seemed very appropriate and not at all aimed at simply driving up the price. We also liked the fact that you build the cabinets yourselves and can make them any dimensions at all and not simply some pre-fab sizes. When there was a glitch or two, you took care of them to our complete satisfaction. Sincerely,”
