Mac Junker, of The Kitchen Specialist, has to be one of the most talented and professional Certified Kitchen and Bath Designer in the Triangle area.

Mary Leigh was fantastic to work with! She made the entire process easier by setting up appointments and going with me to review options for cabinets, counter tops, light fixtures, sinks and more! Her eye for detail, her skills in interior design and providing CAD drawings and making excellent recommendations were so helpful throughout the entire project. Mary Leigh was a pleasure to work with, always punctual, professional and we had fun doing this project together.
When we bought our Fearrington Village home, we knew the tiny galley kitchen wouldn't work, but I convinced my husband it was fixable. Thanks to Mary Kate Bedell, it was! New to NC, we contacted The Kitchen Specialist based on their Houzz reviews, and the reviewers didn't steer us wrong. Mary Kate understood our style from her very first visit and paid close attention to our priorities and budget. The galley kitchen is still a galley kitchen, but Mary Kate made it beautiful and so very functional that it doesn't need to be a... read more
We purchased a home on a wonderful property adjacent to the University of North Carolina campus in Chapel Hill, NC, in 2015, thinking that a small addition would make it perfect for our retirement. That morphed into a $1 million+ renovation that included reconfiguration of interior spaces, relocating garage and driveway entrance, and other outdoor spaces. After selecting a great builder and architect, we chose Kitchen Specialist to help with the creation of a new kitchen/family room/powder/laundry room space, a high-end outd... read more

She listened carefully to our wishes and requirements and worked closely with us throughout the process, making it an enjoyable and collaborative process. We were extremely satisfied with the contractor, DiReinzo Builde... read more
