Kitchens by Lombco is a family-run design-build shop out of Tewksbury (with a second showroom in Lexington) that John Marchese Sr. — an engineering graduate with more than 30 years in remodeling — runs with his son John Marchese Jr. handling operations, design and project management. The company supplies its own cabinets and countertops and builds with an in-house crew rather than subcontracting the whole job out, working kitchens, bathrooms, basements and additions across the Merrimack Valley and Greater Boston. Its Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration is active. The reviews read like a company that treats each project as a redesign, not a swap-out. Recent 2026 reviews describe a genuinely consultative design process — in-home measurements, conversations about how a family actually cooks and gathers — that reshapes the layout rather than just replacing cabinets and countertops, with several homeowners specifically noting more storage, better flow and brighter rooms once finished. Multiple reviews from mid-2026 describe projects finishing on or ahead of schedule with the crew cleaning up daily and communicating throughout. The company handles more than kitchens, too. A 2025 review described designer Holly Coulter building a spa-style bathroom with custom cabinetry as part of a combined kitchen-bathroom-basement job that also added a laundry area and living space. A 2024 review described a full kitchen gut paired with new hardwood flooring across an entire first floor, calling the designer and crew meticulous and on-budget, with daily updates through the company's project-management portal. One thing worth a quick check: Houzz's Awards section lists the company as a BBB Accredited Business, but no matching record turned up on BBB's own site directly, so that credential is worth confirming rather than assuming. Houzz's own 15 reviews also average a perfect five stars, though the individual review text wasn't accessible to read directly — the platform total lines up with what's visible elsewhere, even if those specific comments couldn't be checked. For a full kitchen or bathroom remodel — especially one that touches layout, not just finishes — the pattern across a dozen recent reviews points the same direction: a real design process up front, an in-house crew that shows up and cleans up, and projects that land on schedule.
We had been living with the same outdated kitchen since we bought the house and finally decided it was time to do something about it. We got a few quotes from different companies but Kitchens by Lombco was the one that felt most serious about actually understanding what we wanted rather than just selling us a package. The design process was thorough. They came to the house, took measurements, and spent real time talking through how we cook, how many people are in the kitchen at once, what storage we needed. The layout they came up with made so much more sense for our family than what we had before. Installation was smooth. The crew was experienced and you could tell they had done this many times, nothing felt improvised. They were careful with the rest of the house, kept things as tidy as possible during the work, and the countertops came out absolutely beautiful. The finished product looks like something out of a magazine but it actually functions the way a real family kitchen needs to. We are in Nashua so having a company willing to come out here and treat the job with the same care as they would closer to home meant a lot to us. No cutting corners because of the distance.
We started our kitchen remodel thinking mostly about new cabinets and countertops. What we didn't expect was how much better the entire room would work once everything was finished. Kitchens By Lombco helped us rethink the layout instead of just replacing what was already there. We ended up with more storage, better lighting, and a kitchen that's much easier to cook and entertain in. The project stayed on schedule, the crew respected our home, and they always left things cleaned up before heading out for the day. That made living through the remodel much less stressful than we had imagined. Now the kitchen is where everyone ends up when family comes over. It feels brighter, more open, and much more like the center of our home. Looking back, it was one of the best improvements we've made to the house.
My husband and I spent years talking about remodeling our kitchen before finally deciding to move forward. What impressed us most about Kitchens By Lombco was that they didn't just focus on cabinets and countertops. They paid attention to how we actually use the space every day and helped create a layout that made a lot more sense for our family. The project stayed organized, the crew was respectful of the house, and the finished kitchen feels completely different from what we had before. More storage, better flow, and a much more open feel overall. Now that it's finished, we spend more time in the kitchen than we ever did before. Looking back, we wish we had done it sooner.
The biggest thing for us was that Kitchens By Lombco treated the remodel like an actual living space instead of just another construction job. Our old kitchen felt cramped and outdated, and we weren’t even sure the layout could really be improved that much. They came back with ideas that honestly made the room feel twice as functional without making it look overdone. We went with Aspect Cabinets and the finished product came out really clean. Storage makes more sense now, the lighting works better, and the whole kitchen just feels easier to be in. There’s always some stress living through a remodel, but the crew kept things moving and didn’t leave the place destroyed every night, which helped a lot. End result came out better than we expected.
We live in Wilmington and chose the Tewksbury Kitchens by Lombco for our remodel. The entire process was smooth and stress-free. The team finished ahead of schedule, cleaned up daily, and kept us informed every step of the way. The workmanship is impeccable, and we love our new kitchen.
