The Corner Cabinet

Other people's contractors send their clients here. A November 2023 customer hunting cabinets for a basement wet bar came on a contractor's suggestion, a February 2019 reviewer the same way, and in a November 2019 review a builder described Gil as the reliable professional he leans on. The Corner Cabinet designs and supplies the cabinetry and counters; someone else usually swings the hammer. It is an appointment-only kitchen and bath cabinetry studio in Ashland, which its site says it moved to recently, with Gina named as owner and operator. The Better Business Bureau dates the company to 1996 and grades it A+. On Google it runs 4.9★ across 30 ratings, with 5.0 from 32 ratings and 37 projects on Houzz, where its profile also lists KraftMaid and Decora dealer credentials. The reviews are really about the designers. Dave Mauricio's name comes up most: in a November 2023 review he matched new island cabinetry to a kitchen's existing cabinets, ordered everything and held it at the warehouse until the install was ready; a May 2026 customer, back for a second kitchen with him, called his recommendations spot on. Gil draws the awkward rooms — a December 2023 homeowner taking a small bathroom down to the studs, after a more open feel and a shower instead of a tub, had him design the vanity, and an October 2023 customer said he worked to a tight budget without giving up quality or style. A February 2019 reviewer credited Gina with coordinating a smaller kitchen job: a high bar removed, granite counters swapped for quartz, backsplash added. A July 2022 customer thanked Stephanie for turning a 90s kitchen into a modern one. Cost shows up as range rather than as a bargain. A July 2024 reviewer noted products from less expensive to more expensive; an October 2023 customer called a custom cabinet for a small, strangely shaped bathroom reasonably priced; an April 2024 customer who had already priced the big box stores called The Corner Cabinet's prices competitive. Two practical things before you go. It is appointment-only and the address changed — reviews from 2019 and 2023 still place the shop in Framingham — so book ahead and confirm you are headed to Ashland. And since their half of the job is design, product and ordering, settle early who measures and who installs: a November 2019 customer credited Dave with working directly with their contractor to keep the design and dimensions accurate. The right call if you are redoing a kitchen or bath with your own contractor and want the cabinets, counters and hardware chosen properly. Bring dimensions and a budget number to the first appointment — several customers describe designs built to fit both.
