REFERRAL LETTER FOR JOHN DELUCA KITCHEN DESIGN
The complete remodeling of a kitchen brings great excitement along with frustration and confusion. Even if you think you know what you want, there are literally thousands of design elements from which to choose, on both the style and function spectrums. We decided we needed help. My husband and I met with John DeLuca, a Certified Kitchen Designer from Remodel Works Bath & Kitchen, located in Poway, CA.
John visited our home and listened to us describe our ideas of what we hoped for in a remodel. Then John explained what would work best function-wise in our kitchen space. We also discussed changes that would need to be made to the current footprint after removal of all items in the old kitchen. John then worked his design magic over the next week and came up with a plan that both my husband and I loved: Beachy and relaxing, but capable of looking sophisticated at the same time; not fussy, but with sharp style elements throughout; we even used his suggestions on how to select our lighting and appliances. We didn’t change a single thing in his design.
A day hasn’t gone by that I don’t smile when I look at my new kitchen. John DeLuca’s designs are award-winning. If you are thinking of remodeling your kitchen, John DeLuca deserves your consideration.

Dear Mr. Christenson,
I don’t do Angie’s List or similar so I thought I’d send you a quick letter to let you know what a nice job your people did on a recent kitchen remodel at my house.
The design was done by John DeLuca. The space to work with was a very modest galley kitchen in an older condominium. John did a nice job walking me through trade-offs in costs and materials. He also changed the location of both my range and dishwasher about which I had initial concerns. I am now glad that I trusted his judgement. Both changes turned out to be inspired. CADD drawings were helpful and the contract documents were clear. Overall, in day to day use, the design has turned out to be excellent. I have all the space I need, both countertop and cabinets, and everything seems to fall easily at hand. The cabinets, countertop, and cabinet handles all look great and the quality is visible to all.
The installation work was coordinated by Project Manager Jeff Aldridge. I had never before had a chance to see construction work such as this. Knowing that a company such as yours is always balancing the needs of more than one project and the availability of staff and subcontractors, I was seriously impressed. Though I was initially a bit naive about how long the work would take, the schedule turned out to be very realistic and the work was done and completed by the schedule and at the cost agreed. Your assigned staff showed up on the scheduled day, worked efficiently, and were uniformly very nice. I also have to say that over the years I have noticed where the initial construction of my condo was not entirely plumb. Your staff and contractors did a nice job making that all work. All in all an excellent job.
So on my behalf, please thank all involved for their efforts. Love my kitchen. And yes, I have already recommended your firm to friends, in the end the highest praise.
Sincerely yours,
Clay Bingham
