When we first met Matt, he simply wanted to add a few cabinets and a bit more counterspace. But after getting into the planning process and seeing how passionate he was about cooking, baking, coffee, cocktails, and entertaining, we knew he needed more.
Together, we pivoted the project toward a full kitchen renovation, balancing functionality, durability, and style without going over budget. The goal: a space that would let Matt flourish in his element.

Challenges & Solutions
Matt lives in an 80-year-old home, so there were some quirks:
Uneven flooring needed extra care for proper leveling
Plaster ceilings meant we had to custom-fit crown molding
Tight footprint required careful planning to maximize storage without crowding the space
But nothing slowed us down. The job ran smoothly and wrapped
up right on schedule.
Client Testimonial – Matt Diamondstone
“Captivate was incredible to work with.
I started a kitchen project in December of 2023, with the idea of a small update to add some cabinets and counters. After seeing what a good job Captivate was doing, I decided to move forward with an entire kitchen reno.
Lou was SO helpful throughout the entire process, from making decisions on appliances to sourcing those appliances, working with me to make sure that my vision could be executed without breaking the bank.
Gary is an incredible carpenter—you can balance a marble on my countertops and it won’t roll anywhere. He was creative, finding solutions to work around imperfections in my near 80-year-old house, and even custom built some shelves and windowsills that added a great flair to the kitchen.
One thing that stands out is how absolutely friendly, helpful, and willing to go the extra mile these guys are. From helping me shovel and salt my driveway and sidewalk, to working around overlapping construction/paint/plumbing/electrical schedules, to just making pleasant conversation and being friendly, they were just so consistently great to work with.
My kitchen looks incredible, and if I ever have to do another home reno project, I’m DEFINITELY coming to these guys.
I really really can’t recommend these guys highly enough. 5/5 for sure.”
