"Thank you for all the hard work you put into making our kitchen and bathrooms so nice! We absolutely love the set up of our kitchen and couldn't be happier. You were a pleasure to work with. Thanks again"

We have been very pleased with Carol Bartlett, CKD, of your Kitchen Design Department. Last year, she designed a kitchen for us and it turned out beautifully. The measurements were 100% accurate. Our builder said that this is the first time where all of the cabinets fit properly in any installation he has done. He's been in the business for 35 plus years so, that says something. She was also very helpful in getting the cabinets we wanted and her ideas for the design were great. Her attention to detail and the quality customer service she provided us was very much appreciated. We have purchased another home and she is working with us on the design, for the remodeling, of that kitchen. Once again she has been extremely helpful in cabinet selection and placement. We are looking forward to another successful project."

"Last fall, we spoke with Dennis Tefft, AKBD in your kitchen design department about designing a kitchen in our one hundred year old home we had just purchased that needed some upgrades. He agreed to come out to our home and take a look at the layout and give us some ideas. With a deadline we had to meet and a tough moving schedule, he reacted with excellent and immediate service to suit our needs. It is through our experience with Dennis's professionalism that makes us extremely satisfied with your company, and we feel he is a great asset to your company's success."

"Creating a kitchen is not a straight-forward process, it's iterative. Aimée Keithan worked with us through the necessary revisions we needed and others suggested (or the house dictated!) to get our kitchen perfect. Every time our project threw us a new challenge, Aimée knew the answer or did the right research for it. She interfaced with all the people involved in the project and brought us in under our budget-we got a designer and a project manager all in one."

"When it came time to build our house...I went to Blake Hollis from Downeast Building Supply for the expertise needed for our "dream kitchen." We had a plan in mind; Blake put it all on paper, made some very helpful suggestions, and the end result was the "Focal Point" of the whole house....functional, inviting, and WOW! Thank You, Blake for making our dream come true. It was a pleasure."

"It is with great pleasure for me to write a testimonial to Dennis Tefft, AKBD, and Downeast. Having built or had major renovations to over 12 properties, I have never encountered the professionalism, responsiveness and work ethic as I did in dealing with Dennis and Downeast. Efficient use of my time, looking out for my interests and making all the right judgments were the order of the day. Often it is the opposite when dealing with designers and suppliers. A WHOLEHEARTED A-plus."

"Aimée Keithan has been great to work with in designing our new kitchen - a start-from-scratch project in a small addition to our house. We went to Downeast with a plan for the space. We showed Aimée the plan, talked about what we liked and didn't like. She is a great listener and helped us to bring our ideas into a plan that was workable. We had talked to a kitchen person elsewhere who was less interested in our ideas than in placing standard features - or popular features - into our plan. Aimée encouraged us in our out-of-the-ordinary ideas and helped us to modify some ideas that were not practical. For instance, she helped us figure out how to use a very large, old slate sink in our plan. We don't have our cabinets yet, but we have continued to talk to Aimée, who has been generous with her time, answering questions and concerns. One day she showed us some under-cabinet lights in a store display that were just what we had in mind. We're sure we'll love the cabinets when they arrive and love the new kitchen."

"I have worked with Carol and Downeast Building Supply on more than 20 kitchens over the past 8 years, and can honestly say I do not have a single unhappy customer! I especially value the way Carol combines a wealth of design experience with the ability to understand the needs and tastes of virtually any client. She helps homeowners through the choices they must make with solid design ideas and a respect for their own ideas. After the design is complete it's great to have Carol's support as the installation is completed. And after the sale, it's great to have Carol and Downeast standing behind their products."

"To Dennis Tefft, regarding the kitchen. We love it and have had many compliments. The trim really gives it a finished look and everyone gets a kick out of the 'spring loaded' drawers. Now all that's left is organization of the cupboards and drawers and that pretty much changes every week. Paul comments on their good quality. Thanks for your help and guidance."

"We walked into Downeast Building Supply on a Sunday morning and met with Aimée Keithan, your kitchen designer. From that day forward, the process for deciding what we needed for our new kitchen has been a breeze. We told Aimée what our wish list was and she gave us a lot of suggestions and tips. Working with Aimée and Downeast made our long-distance construction decisions an easier task."

"I am so glad that I had Dennis Tefft, AKBD, to advise me when I redid my kitchen - he is terrific to work with. Right from the start, his sense of aesthetics was obvious and much appreciated - I knew I could trust him. He paid attention to my ideas and what I wanted; he really listened. Every time I use the kitchen I silently thank Dennis for one particularly great idea - before we started talking about cabinets and countertops, he suggested moving the refrigerator so it didn't interfere with our wonderful view of the water. So obvious! But I hadn't thought of it. Dennis made sure I really thought things through and didn't miss any opportunities to make the most of my kitchen redesign."

Dennis Tefft, AKBD, has designed 2 full kitchens, a guest cottage kitchenette and 4 bathrooms for us. He is wonderful to work with. His insight and guidance were invaluable. Our kitchen is amazing. It's a work of art!"
