Shore & Country Kitchens

We absolutely loved working with Bob at Shore & Country Kitchens! We were first time renovators and very overwhelmed with all of the options. Bob was patient, understanding and very flexible throughout the process. He took the time to understand our style, what was important to us, and our budget, and then provided ideas recommendations and that fit us. He didn't just push us to buy cookie-cutter options that are "popular" (like some other kitchen designers did), he worked with us to design something that fit our family and house. He was also meticulous with all of the details from measuring and renderings through installation. He made sure everything was perfect and exactly what we envisioned. We could not be happier with our kitchen, and we never could have made it happen without Bob!

Working with Bob Blanco at Shore & Country Kitchens was a very pleasant experience. Bob listened to our ideas and guided us in designing our new kitchen. He recommended and coordinated with the appliance store to ensure the appliances were an appropriate fit. Bob also provided a computer generated design that provided a helpful visual to see what the new kitchen would look like with our selected choices. The process was very smooth and completed in a timely manner. Our new kitchen is absolutely beautiful and we’re thrilled with the finished kitchen!

We had a wonderful experience with Shore & Country Kitchens and are extremely happy with our new kitchen. Bob is a very talented designer and created a beautiful kitchen for us, changing the layout to best utilize the space. He was knowledgeable on all parts of this project, helping us pick cabinets, countertops and recommending a great contractor and places to go for tile and appliances. His installation crew was very meticulous as well. Bob was very pleasant, patient, organized and detail-oriented. We can't recommend him enough!

Bob was a pleasure to work with. He listened closely to what we wanted and designed the perfect kitchen for our family. He was very responsive through the whole renovation and answered every single question we had. He recommended an excellent contractor and other professionals and the installers he worked with were fantastic. We could not be happier with our new kitchen. I highly recommend Shore & Country Kitchens.

As an architect I had very high standards when it came to selecting a company to help me build a new kitchen for my own home in Greenwich. After interviewing several candidates I felt Bob Blanco of Shore & Country Kitchens was the best choice for the job. My choice proved correct! Bob was a wonderful collaborator to work with—patient, even-tempered, highly knowledgeable, and with a superb design sense. Together we came up with a scheme that I feel is not only handsome and fully thought-out but also an imaginative departure from the more conventional design trends that dominate the industry today. Importantly, Bob is as sensitive to project pragmatics as he is to aesthetics. Projections for project delivery timelines proved one hundred percent accurate. Budgets were clear, record-keeping precise, and correspondence timely. His follow-through and site coordination during construction were equally well-executed. I cannot say enough about him and his company—highly recommended!

Bob and his staff were top notch to work with, right from the design stage through completion. He understood what we wanted to do and gave us a plan to maximize our kitchen space and storage. The cabinets, countertop and sink that he provided all have exceeded our expectations, and he even noticed an error in the appliances we ordered, contacted the appliance store to correct the error - and saved us about $1100 in the process. The project still has several other components to be done before we can start using the kitchen, but all of Bob's work is done. The computer-generated graphics he gave us kept us excited while the preliminary work was being done, and the final result is even better than the pictures.

I totally recommend Bob and Shore & Country Kitchens as an outstanding designer and supplier for anyone looking for a first-class remodel of their kitchen. We weren't looking for a "home beautiful," unlimited expense-type kitchen. But for our budget, that's what we got. Thank you Bob for designing our new kitchen.

We highly recommend Shore and Country for their products and especially their design service. Bob designed a remodel for our kitchen 10 years ago that maximized the usable space so cleverly and beautifully! A second successful renovation, done recently, was to replace cabinetry in our laundry/pantry. Bob has wonderful creative vision and is a delight to work with!

We hired Shore and Country Kitchen to redo our 1929 kitchen. Owner Bob Blanco designed a beautiful kitchen that has modern conveniences, but kept to the era of our home. During our kitchen construction, Storm Sandy came knocking at our door. Bob’s support, patience and encouragement during that time helped us get through flood cleanup up and repair damage. We then finished  our kitchen a few months later. Forward 8 years, we had a minor flood that led us to replace a cabinet. To do that we needed to take off and put back our granite counter top-not an easy task. Again, this happened during another stressful time, the COVID pandemic. Bob immediately responded to my call for help, put a plan together and helped us get our kitchen back in order. Any designer can design a kitchen in ordinary conditions, Bob’s work was extraordinary in adverse conditions! Bob is very knowledgeable of his products and has a great design sense. He is very accommodating and great to work with. I highly recommend Shore and Country Kitchen for new and remodeled kitchens.

We cannot say enough good things about Bob. He took great care in designing the absolute best kitchen/dining area for our space, while keeping our budget in mind. He also helped us with design choices throughout the project (not just limited to the cabinets) to make sure the whole space came out as we imagined. He is extremely talented, as well as organized, responsive, and patient! He came over our house multiple times during the process to make sure everything was going exactly as planned. We are loving the new kitchen, and will enjoy it for years to come!

Ten years ago Shore & Country did a superb job designing and installing a custom kitchen. Recently, S&C did the same for our two upstairs baths. Equally pleased with results. Top quality work, very professional.

Bob Blanco at Shore & Country Kitchens is a true professional and a joy to work with. We are beyond pleased with our stunning Brookhaven Series II custom cabinetry, our counter tops and Shore & Country's creative layout and design. From start to finish, Bob assisted us to join our existing dining room and kitchen into one large, remarkable kitchen. Everything came as promised and right on time. We highly recommend Shore & Country Kitchens!

Overjoyed!
It’s no small thing when you decide to take on a major remodel, and doing it during a global pandemic??!! Talk about a new level of coordination, customer service and sincerity!

We are so grateful and fortunate to have Shore & Country Kitchens and Bob Blanco as our lead designer and pandemic-project manager! Our plans were completed in February and we launched our demo on March 9, 2020…the week before our new ‘covid world’. Needless to say, the uncertainties surrounding all of our lives were consuming. However, in the midst of all this, every step of our kitchen remodel remained attended, supervised, and professionally managed with abundant consideration, concern and poise. Every question was immediately answered, any changes due to covid alterations from distributors were conveyed and the project remained on track through installation. That alone was Herculean, but I also have to express my elation with the outcome of the design! With a one hundred year-old house, we were seeking a modern, sleek, a little bit industrial design vibe that would meet our NY style. Boom! Shore & Country landed it! Innovative and different, the new modern kitchen meets the historic elements of the house in a wonderful blend and celebration of styles. We are overjoyed and grateful!

We had a wonderful experience with Shore and Country Kitchens. We would highly recommend it!

SO accommodating, professional, talented and easy to work with! ❤
