Working with Dianne was one of the most important decisions we made when deciding to renovate our kitchen from top-to-bottom. Dianne was able to take the many ideas we had and boil them down into a single design. She kept us on track with the decision-making. And when the kind of marble that we had dreamed about for our countertops became difficult to find, she wouldn't let us settle for second choice. Instead she searched and searched until she found just what we had been envisioning. Our kitchen came out even better than we were dreaming and we wouldn't change a thing.
Meeting and working with Dianne on my kitchen and bath projects was simply amazing. I waited 25 years to take the plunge and start a complete demolition of my kitchen and 2 baths. She was by my side from the very beginning to the end and is still completely accessible to this day. She took the time to explain, in detail, every single step I would have to take on this massive project.
She was there to make suggestions, solve even the most minor issue and was by my side any and every time I needed her help. Her expertise, suggestions, guidance, assistance and creations are amazing.
I could not be happier and have been recommending her to all my friends that are timid about starting such a project.
I'll be forever grateful that she guided me through any twists and turns during this renovation to arrive at the most beautiful destination - a home that I now so enjoy!

Design, communication, listening, recommendations, and outcomes — all excellent. Would use this service again — and soon I hope.

We made an appointment to see her on Calendly (with email confirmation) and drove 45 mins, only to be greeted by her shut office. If she can’t make the appointment, she should at least have the courtesy to email/call or cancel the appointment on Calendly.

Having Dianne do our project was the best decision we made. She guided us all the way through and if we were having any problems she was right on it. She made frequent stops by to check on the progress. We love our new kitchen. Everything came out beautifully. I would highly recommend Dianne for a kitchen renovation.

From start to finish, working with Dianne has been a pleasure not just for us, but for our contractor and architect too. Our 200 year old farmhouse featured a tired old gloomy 60's-era kitchen with low ceilings and mismatched Formica. It was a challenge, but Dianne immediately saw the possibilities. She captured and vastly improved on our vision. I dreamed of soapstone counter tops but worried about chipping and maintenance. Dianne suggested a lovely new care-free quartz that mimics soapstone, complete with veining. When the white farmer's kitchen sink we ordered was not available, she suggested fabricating an apron front sink out of the same "soapstone" quartz. The result is seamless and stunning, and a real nod to the antiquity of the house. Disarmingly cheerful, Dianne made herself available throughout the project, and when inevitable issues arose, she was flexible and came up with imaginative solutions. For example, once the kitchen was gutted there was a problem with the placement of a "chase" to run plumbing/wiring to the second floor. Dianne suggested a tweak to the architect's plans that provided a chase, while eliminating a dreaded corner cabinet and adding a bonus walk-in pantry with even more storage. Dianne held my hand when it came time to choose light fixtures, knobs and all the little extras, and she didn't steer my wrong. She respected that, given the age of the house, we were going for simplicity and did not try to "up-sell" us. Armed with an inventory list she made of all that was stored in our original kitchen, she recommended drawer and cabinet inserts that gave us a place for everything. With everything in its place, the counter tops are now clear and multiple cooks can prepare a meal while talking and laughing with family and friends who are not underfoot. The end result is a homey bright uncluttered kitchen with plenty of storage and work space that has become the social center of our home. We couldn't be happier.

It was a pleasure to work with Dianne from Edesia Kitchen and Bath Studio. Dianne was professional, friendly, and detail-oriented during our kitchen remodel. We had many questions during the design process, and Dianne was always patient with us and provided us with detailed explanations of what we were looking for. Our previously outdated, poor-functioning kitchen was transformed into a beautiful space that makes much more sense for what we need thanks to Dianne!
