We strive to make remodeling Easier Than You Imagined for all of our clients. We appreciate it when one of our clients takes the time to let us know how they feel about working with us. We’d like to share a note we received last week from one of our kitchen remodeling clients.

“Thanks to all, Julie, Bob, plumbers, electricians, Mark (painter), and others for a wonderful beautiful kitchen! And special thanks to Tracey for keeping it totally organized, informing me every step of the way, reassuring, calming, and caring. He is fantastic! I loved working with Julie, professional and understanding, felt totally at ease working with her and she has a terrific eye for design!”

Great job everyone!

We are proud to announce that Francis Harvey & Sons has been awarded a 2009 Coty Silver Medal Award from Eastern MA- National Association of the Remodeling Industry (EM-NARI) for Residential Kitchens at their annual Evening of Excellence, held Nov. 4th at the Westin Waltham.

The award was presented by Andre Tippet, special guest emcee, for the special 15th anniversary of the CotY awards, which recognize the best achievements in remodeling projects by EM-NARI members over the past year.

The winning kitchen was designed by Theresa Meaney of Holden, a kitchen and bath designer for Francis Harvey & Sons. “This kitchen transformed a dated kitchen into a showpiece that reflects our clients’ sophisticated sense of style. It was a pleasure to have the opportunity to work with our clients to design and build their dream kitchen. We feel especially fortunate to be recognized for both the talent of our designer, Theresa Meaney, and the craftsmanship of our remodeling team” said Neil Harvey of Francis Harvey & Sons.
