Kitchen Associates works out of a showroom in Sterling, Massachusetts, offering kitchen and bath design, cabinetry, countertops, remodeling and installation, according to its website. The company says Bob Sponenberg founded it in 1958, starting with kitchen installations and carpentry in the Leominster/Fitchburg area, and that it is now a second-generation family business led by president Jay Sponenberg. Its Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration is active on the state registry. On Google it holds 4.6 stars from 30 ratings, and 5.0 from 23 ratings on Houzz. In a 2024 review, a homeowner with a small kitchen said Ruth Bergstrom listened and worked their must-haves into the design, Yorddy did the install, and Lonnie did all the scheduling. That 2024 customer also said Kitchen Associates works with Continental Stone, which they used for a quartz counter top and backsplash. A 2021 customer wrote that one measurement was off by 1 inch; Brian came out within 15 minutes, confirmed the measurement, and had the cabinet cut and back to them within 2 hours. A 2022 customer said Nathan helped pick cabinets that fit their budget, Collin was the installer, and Kitchen Associates worked closely with trades to get electrical and plumbing updates done in line with the project schedule. A 2025 Houzz reviewer said the company provided and installed handcrafted cherry cabinets and soapstone counters. A 2025 Google reviewer wrote that Jay had done work for them for over 20 years and priced everything fairly. A 2026 customer said they called about a repair on a kitchen sink installed 20 years earlier and were pointed to the company's installation expert. A 2023 customer said that even though there were some delays, their kitchen renovation came out really good. A 2025 reviewer wrote that the company came to measure for their mother's countertops but never gave her a price or called her back, three weeks later.
“"The biggest trend in kitchens," says Jay Sponenberg, Vice President of Kitchen Associates in Sterling, Massachusetts, "is seeing them as the entertainment center of the home.”
I called for information for a repair on a kitchen sink that was installed 20 years ago and they pointed me in the direction of their installation expert. You know that’s great customer service!
Jay is great he has done work for us for over 20 years. He really helps with His experience to put everything together. He prices everthing very fair. We are very happy with the company staff that have worked in our homes. Tom and Deb Sheridan
This place has never called my mom back. She wanted her countertops done. They came to measure but has never given her a price. She gets probably tomorrow or I'll call you in an hour and that was three weeks ago. If they don't want not a big job then they should at least tell her
Kitchen Associates provided and installed beautiful handcrafted cherry cabinets and soapstone counters for us. We could not be more pleased with the outcome, beauty and functionality of the project.
They just finished remodeling my kitchen and it came out beautiful....everyone at Kitchen Associates was very professional, polite, efficient and on top of everything. Once all the cabinets were in they scheduled when they would start and had everything delivered to my garage. Ruth helped me design what I wanted and Lonnie schedule it and Colin put all the cabinets in beautifully....was a great experience.
