“This is our second kitchen with JGKB and our first working directly with Nancy. We are absolutely thrilled with the outcome. The kitchen is elegant and timeless, useful and functional, and graceful and inviting. It’s a cooking sanctuary that embraces the daily flow of our family’s activities and easily accommodates large gatherings of friends who gravitate to the space. Nancy even found a creative way to incorporate a family heirloom. Many designers figure out the basic work triangle, which is indeed essential, or simply make a kitchen that look perfect for social media. JGKB knows that doesn’t mean the space works well, and they blend the functional with the beautiful. At bottom, a good kitchen is hard to design. Nancy took on the challenge and worked with me to understand our needs. She was exceptional at incorporating our requests, and she added her strong and intuitive design skills with a focus on function and style to deliver a gorgeous, unique, and exceedingly usable kitchen.”

The previous builder-grade kitchen felt drab and heavy even for a space flooded with natural light. We set out to create a bright, open kitchen with clean lines, but also giving a nod to the home’s original 1920 character. Instead of immediately going to a white painted cabinet in order to achieve a bright kitchen, we decided to focus on warmer materials in a white oiled rift white oak and a walnut island. The walnut island was built as a custom freestanding piece with open shelf storage below.

From conception to completion, Jennifer’s Kitchen & Bath’s team was a pleasure to work with. The crown jewel of our home, the kitchen, evolved into reality with style and function. Five star service.

This is our third JGKB kitchen, each one thoughtfully artistic and ergonomic, with its own character and vibe, but this one shines the brightest. The old kitchen it replaced, and the space it occupied, were in dire need of rearranging and updating. Jennifer’s design removed a wall, opened up the vaulted ceiling on one side, and reconfigured the adjoining powder room so that it worked seamlessly with the rest of the design. The walnut countertop, with waterfall sides, created just the right touch of contrast with the maple cabinets, and the walnut cabinets and wine cooler below gave that section an integrated but stand-alone look. We couldn’t be happier with the final result, and it blends right in with our waterfront views. Thank you, Jennifer!

Throughout the design process, she listened and understood right away what we wanted and delivered a very creative, gorgeous, and functional design for our large space. It was great being able to see what the finished project would look like on the screen before we started. We are a family of serious cooks and she was able to design a space where several of us are working in the kitchen at the same time, without getting in each other’s way. We never want to leave our kitchen! The timeline from design to completion was realistic and Mari Jo kept us informed every step of the way. I only wish I had found Mari Jo earlier so she could’ve done our bathroom as well.

Jennifer’s experience was evident when she came to our home and within minutes re-conceptualized the entire organization of our kitchen space. Her initial idea was carried through to the final plan. The end result is far more functional and aesthetically pleasing, while maximizing the view and natural lighting. Most importantly, we love being in this new space!

We have used Jennifer Gilmer Kitchens multiple times to help us with a complete renovation of our kitchens and bathrooms. She and her partner, Marie-Josee have been fantastic in coming up with good ideas, interacting and overseeing the builders, and most importantly coming up with a functional, beautiful design with cost effective ideas and materials.

I had a wonderful experience working with JGKB’s designer, Sarah Kahn Turner. She made our kitchen renovation project fun and easy, and it was completed on time! She was able to find a perfect place for everything and helped supply us with top-notch appliances, cabinets & countertops. The kitchen’s incredible new beauty is truly 3 notches above top; all of our friends & caterers marvel about it! I highly recommend working with Jennifer Gilmer Kitchen & Bath for your kitchen remodel.

We recently did a complete kitchen remodel with the incredible design work of Meghan Browne from Jennifer Gilmer Kitchen & Bath. She did an incredible job of listening to our needs, evaluating our style sense, and finding solutions that maximized our space while making sure the kitchen matched the rest of the house. She introduced us to a great contractor as well that implemented her vision. We couldn't have been happier with this process. The end result is way better than we could have imagined!

I can't say enough good things about the vision, design, and execution demonstrated by Jennifer Gilmer Kitchen & Bath in connection with our home renovation. We re-did our kitchen and all four bathrooms and could not have done it without the guidance from Sarah Kahn Turner and the other professionals at Jennifer Gilmer. They even helped us find the perfect contractor, and worked seamlessly with the contractor to make their vision a reality. My wife and I cannot recommend them highly enough.

We had a terrific experience working with Meghan at JGKB. Our project was a collaboration - she came with creativity and fresh ideas and was always happy to incorporate our ideas and changes. When we were brainstorming, she'd draw everything out by hand which was amazing because it made it much easier to see and feel the space as we discussed the different options. In the end, there were no surprises, it turned out exactly as we had hoped, and we're thrilled. We renovated the kitchen and master bath.

Our kitchen is the heart of our home. Sarah Kahn Turner from Jennifer Gilmer Kitchen & Bath listened to our needs, saw our vision, and transformed our hearth into a welcoming and beautiful spot where we can warm hearts, fill bellies and nourish souls. She then helped us turn our master bathroom and bedroom into a serene and beautiful oasis. But even that wasn't enough, so we asked Sarah to renovate our Bethany Beach house kitchen and master bath. Our worst problem is we can't be in two gorgeous JGKB homes at once.

Finally, the time to remodel the largest bathroom in the house came: THE MASTER BATHROOM! My family and I decided to go to Jennifer Gilmer Kitchen and Bath in Bethesda, MD and met with their designer, Jennifer Gilmer. Gilmer is a top senior designer, her long years of expertise and hands-on the job made her a very refined designer, very creative with exquisite taste. From the minute you meet her, she shows a great deal of knowledge and professionalism, not only is she very pleasant and energetic but she likes to work closely with her clients in order to accommodate their needs and expectations. I must tell you that we had a very good experience and we are very happy with the outcome of the job and you must trust her when she makes a design and select colors. Yet one important thing to mention, even if Jennifer has a spectacular overall vision when she makes a design, selects items, mixes colors, it’s very important to know that she is not rigid with her designs but she is very open-minded and integrated our taste with hers. It was such a pleasure working with her and I highly recommend JGKB if you plan to remodel your kitchen or bathroom.”
