Mid-State Kitchens is a Shrewsbury, Massachusetts design-and-remodeling firm that says it's been helping homeowners rebuild kitchens and bathrooms since 1983 — a 43-year run that shows in both the volume and detail of its reviews: 25 written accounts since 2018 across five platforms, a BBB A+ grade, and named designers and installers customers ask for by name. The praise is specific and consistent: reviewers across the past several years single out designers Jessie Fisher, Jenn Beckwith and Jenn Bastien for guiding cabinet and material choices, and crews led by Tom Peters for finishing full gut renovations on schedule with regular updates along the way. A 2024 review described the company managing plumbers, electricians and designers start to finish so the homeowner didn't have to; several others describe full kitchens and multiple bathrooms renovated at once without major disruption. Not every review is glowing, though, and the complaints follow a pattern worth knowing. Reviews from 2021 and 2025 describe design appointments that didn't go as expected — one said a promised design and quote never arrived, another said cabinet and countertop options were never shown. A 2022 review described being pressured onto the crew's own timeline, including being asked to paint before cabinets were fully installed, and a 2018 Houzz review called the owner difficult to reach, though it said the plumber and granite installer on that same job were professional. A separate, undated Better Business Bureau review described a dispute over an invoice for older electrical work that went unanswered. For a full kitchen or bathroom remodel around Shrewsbury and Worcester, the volume of detailed, name-checked praise suggests a company capable of strong results — but given the recurring theme in the negative reviews, it's worth pinning down the design process, timeline, and who exactly will be the point of contact before signing.
We couldn’t be happier with our new kitchen! The craftsmanship and attention to detail from Mid-State Kitchens are absolutely outstanding. From start to so close to being finished, the entire team has been responsive, professional, and a pleasure to work with. Jessie’s design ideas completely transformed our space!!! She saw potential we never would have imagined and came up with a design and layout that makes the kitchen far more open, bright, and functional. Every detail was thoughtfully planned, and the end result is not only beautiful but works so much better! Sean was fantastic. His communication skills are excellent, and he kept the Buildertrend app updated every step of the way, which made it so easy to track progress. We loved that you had this app available to us. Every contractor who came into our home was courteous, skilled, and respectful, and they left the work area clean and organized at the end of each day, which we truly appreciated. Mid-State Kitchens exceeded our expectations in every way. We would absolutely recommend them to anyone considering a remodel!
We had Mid-State kitchens do a full kitchen remodel and interior renovation. We were blown away by their work and could not recommend them more - it's beautiful! Tom was professional and clearly communicated with us every step of the way. Their quote was reasonable and detailed, without tons of extras along the way! Jessie did our kitchen design and instantly understood our vision and style. She was so patient as we made lots of changes and took our time getting it just right. Amazingly, the entire project was done quickly and was ahead of schedule the entire time. Tom was respectful of our timeline and we were so impressed with how he managed the team and communicated with us every step of the way. The app that they use is wonderful and helps everyone stay on the same page, with owners knowing exactly what is happening when along with pictures of what was completed for days when we were not in the house. Every single subcontractor that was in the house was respectful, positive, friendly, and did amazing work. From the demo guys, to the carpenter, to the tile installer, to the painters, to hardwood floor installers - everyone we worked with was an A+ and we were blown away by their professionalism and work. We would recommend Mid-State for their quality of work, team of workers, and fair pricing.
Thank you Mid State Kitchens for transforming my outdated and tired kitchen into my dream kitchen. I couldn't be any happier with the outcome. From our first meeting with Jenn Beckwith I knew I was in very capable hands. Her attention to detail and design were exactly what I was looking for and more than I could imagine, the transformation was unbelievable. Everyone we dealt with were true craftsman, from Sean and his team to Pat who is an extraordinary craftsman, their attention to every last detail really made the whole process simple. Following the progress and being kept on the same page through the app made the process so much easier. From start to finish everything was done exactly to plans with no surprises. I would highly recommend Mid State and their team and look forward to future bathroom remodels I am planning.
Renovation of my kitchen and 2 bathrooms. Couldn’t have been easier and so happy with the results!
I went to the Shrewsbury store after making an appointment.During my appointment, i gave her my current kitchen layout and measurements. She never went over any cabinet designs for me to select from. She never showed me any countertop stone options to choose from. She was in a rush to get me out of her office. Then she emailed me an estimate for 55k-100 for my existing kitchen when 3 other places had quoted 21-25k for a new kitchen. What is your estimate based on? Why would I come to you if I want to keep the same exact kitchen???? She had made a home measurement appointment but her email suggested she was not willing to keep it. I would not recommend to anyone due to the unprofessional and rude service.
