Kitchen Tune-Up Peabody, MA

A January 2026 customer wanted a cabinet facelift on a budget and found Home Depot quoting three times what Kitchen Tune-Up did. In 2022 another had a 26-year-old kitchen made to look new in five days, at half what a custom cabinet company had quoted. That is the trade this Peabody franchise works in: keep the boxes, change everything you see, and be gone in days rather than weeks. Kitchen Tune-Up Peabody is Matt Silva's location. The brand describes itself as a kitchen remodeling and improvement franchise doing cabinet tune-ups, painting, refacing, redooring, custom cabinets, countertops, accessories and outdoor kitchens. Its Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration, number 140316, is expired on the state registry — the registration exists and it is not current, so raise it before you sign anything. Its BBB page carries an A+. Matt himself is what customers write about. They describe him quoting quickly and in detail — a 2024 customer who had contacted seven or eight contractors said he could barely get a ballpark from the others — and then running the job: a schedule handed over at the start, with the cabinet crew, the electrician, the plumber, the countertop and the tile installers all sequenced by him. A December 2023 customer wrote that the schedule given at the start held to the day. Speed and tidiness come up constantly. Two days for a kitchen in 2021, and again in 2022. Five days for that 26-year-old kitchen. A 2023 customer described crews working eight hours straight, putting their tools away and cleaning up each evening, and back the next morning. In February 2026 a homeowner said a couple of minor issues were fixed immediately. Some come back: an April 2026 customer returned to convert a bathtub after having the kitchen refaced a few years earlier. Two things sit against that. In May 2022 a reviewer wrote that the estimator arrived an hour late with no warning and spent half an hour on the phone with another client during the appointment. And the platform headlines disagree sharply — Google shows 4.9 stars from 87 ratings, Houzz 2.8 from four. This is the right call for a kitchen or bath you want transformed without a gut renovation, on a fixed timeline, with one person coordinating every trade. Ask where the state registration stands, get the written schedule reviewers describe, and confirm what the quote covers once the plumbing and electrical work is subcontracted.
