Last 6 months: 0 reviews, 0 negative. ## The honest read Centerline Design & Build pairs interior design with renovation work, and the company says it has been in business for 29 years. Its website talks about rooms that were just right a decade or two ago but no longer suit the real needs of today. The site citylifestyle.com has profiled principal designer Jeanne Rapone, and Down East Magazine's "5 Maine Kitchens We Love" page has featured the company. Its BBB grade is A+, and it holds 5 stars from 12 Google ratings. A 2024 customer said they hired Centerline to renovate their kitchen and ended up completely re-doing it, plus new furniture, rugs and curtains for the open living and dining areas. That 2024 customer credited Jeanne Rapone and Lisa Morris with the design and described total transparency and accountability. A 2023 customer said Jeanne Rapone listened to the flow, function and storage issues behind a first-floor renovation that kept the overall footprint. That 2023 customer said Lisa Morris handled the interior design elements, from cabinetry and wall colors to tile, fabrics, furniture and lighting. The same 2023 customer named a build team led by Joe Solmos and called the crew talented and respectful. A 2023 customer who bought a house during Covid said Jeanne Rapone designed the interior while her team, led by Shane Eliasen, worked closely with the contractor and his subs. That 2023 customer described bumps and delays from workmen getting sick and from supply chain issues, and said meetings and decisions were made over FaceTime and Zoom while they were in California for much of the remodel. A 2023 customer said Lisa Morris had helped decorate most of their home over more than 10 years and worked with Jeanne Rapone on a complete renovation of their mud room and pantry. A 2023 customer with a historic home said they worked with Centerline on paint, wallcoverings, furniture and light fixtures, custom shelving, the repair of a 1948 mantle and the construction of a window seat. **Strengths:** - A first-floor redesign — a 2023 customer said Jeanne Rapone fixed storage issues - Interior design — a 2023 customer credited Lisa Morris on colors and fabrics - Remote remodel — a 2023 customer made decisions over FaceTime and Zoom **Concerns:** - Covid-era delays — a 2023 customer cited sick workmen and supply issues ## Claims & citations Every claim below is backed by real evidence rows — uncited claims are dropped in code before publication. - Says it has been in business for 29 years _(confidence: medium)_ - [Official Website](http://centerlinedesignme.com) — “Self-reported 29 years in business” - BBB grade of A+ _(confidence: high)_ - [Better Business Bureau](https://www.bbb.org/us/me/yarmouth/profile/interior-designer/centerline-design-build-0021-493357) — “Better Business Bureau grade: A+” - 5 stars from 12 Google ratings _(confidence: high)_ - [Google](https://www.google.com/maps/search/?api=1&query=Centerline%20Design%20%26%20Build&query_place_id=ChIJAe5rMc-GskwRlBb-v6q9MlE) — “Google: 5★ from 12 ratings” - Principal designer Jeanne Rapone has been profiled on citylifestyle.com _(confidence: medium)_ - [Local News](https://www.citylifestyle.com/articles/building-the-vision) — “citylifestyle.com — Principal designer Jeanne Rapone of Centerline Design & Build shares how a decades-old idea became a collaborative appro…” - Featured on Down East Magazine's 5 Maine Kitchens We Love page _(confidence: medium)_ - [Local News](https://downeast.com/home-and-garden/5-maine-kitchens-we-love/) — “downeast.com — 5 Maine Kitchens We Love | Down East Magazine Shop Browse ourMaine-Made Gifts and More Adventures Browse ourW…” - A 2024 customer said Centerline renovated their kitchen and furnished the open living and dining areas _(confidence: high)_ - [Google Reviews](https://www.google.com/maps/reviews/data=!4m8!14m7!1m6!2m5!1sChdDSUhNMG9nS0VJQ0FnSURycXFuRnd3RRAB!2m1!1s0x0:0x5132bdaabffe1694!3m1!1s2@1:CIHM0ogKEICAgIDrqqnFwwE%7C%7C?hl=en) — “5★ We hired Centerline to renovate our kitchen and ended up completely re-doing it plus getting new furniture/rugs/curtains for our open flo…” - A 2023 customer said Jeanne Rapone addressed flow, function and storage issues in a first-floor renovation _(confidence: high)_ - [Google Reviews](https://www.google.com/maps/reviews/data=!4m8!14m7!1m6!2m5!1sChdDSUhNMG9nS0VJQ0FnSUR4c1p5YXVnRRAB!2m1!1s0x0:0x5132bdaabffe1694!3m1!1s2@1:CIHM0ogKEICAgIDxsZyaugE%7C%7C?hl=en) — “5★ It’s been about a year since our first floor renovation wrapped up, and everyday we continue to love everything about the result.
