Designing kitchens that combine practical arrangements with appealing aesthetics is central to our work at Main Line Kitchen Design. We serve Delaware Valley homeowners who want experienced guidance when planning new kitchens or renovating existing spaces. Our company is directed by Paul McAlary, whose professional achievements include more than a dozen design awards and recognition as a Viking Appliances Designer of Distinction in 2017. Our team has extensive experience improving kitchen layouts, specifying cabinetry, and coordinating design details involving countertops, flooring, and appliances. With eight nationally available cabinet lines, we offer selections suited to different design preferences and price points. Our goal is to make professional kitchen design accessible without the additional expenses associated with traditional showrooms.

Each project starts with a personal consultation and measurements taken at the homeowner's property. We use this information to prepare computer-generated designs showing possible arrangements for the new kitchen. During a subsequent meeting, we discuss these concepts, consider adjustments, and move toward a detailed plan. Clients can review cabinet construction beneath glass countertops, examine numerous sample doors and finishes, and visualize their proposed kitchens through three-dimensional renderings. Our appointment-based business model allows us to dedicate attention to individual projects while maintaining competitive cabinetry prices. From small kitchens requiring better layouts to extensive remodeling projects, we concentrate on creating spaces that are both useful and visually satisfying.

I recently completed a full kitchen gut renovation for my first home, and I couldn't be happier with how it turned out. Paul was our designer and his expertise made all the difference.

From the start, Paul took the time to understand how I wanted to use the space and what my desired aesthetic was and then translated that into a design that's both stunning and incredibly functional. This was no small feat for a first-time kitchen remodel where I didn't fully know what to even ask for. Every detail feels intentional, something that is essential for a small NYC kitchen.

What really stood out was how attentive Paul was throughout the entire process, patiently answering my (many) questions and guiding me through decisions I'd never had to make before (or even expected that I would need to make!). Even my contractor, who's done plenty of kitchen remodels, specifically complimented the quality of Paul's design.

If you're considering a kitchen renovation, whether as a seasoned homeowner or as a first-time homeowner, I can't recommend Paul and Main Line Kitchen Design enough. Truly a five-star experience from start to finish.

From design to execution, MLKD was there every step of the way. Working with our designer, Ed was an easy and natural experience. He provided input, but also let us have our voice in the creative process. The kitchen came out beautifully, and we love cooking and entertaining in it everyday!

We were very happy with Main Line, especially their responsiveness to issues with the doors after the fact! One of our cabinet doors was warped and Chris Rossetti immediately swung by, determined it was covered under warranty and got a new one ordered. He even reordered it a second time after determining that the stain color was not satisfactory (I didn't even notice the difference until he pointed it out!)

We went with a more base-level product for our laundry room because we thought it was worth spending the 'big bucks' on custom inset cabinets in our kitchen, but the laundry room cabinets honestly have such a 'wow' factor and our experience with Main Line was much much better than with Village Handcrafted, where we got the kitchen cabinets. Quality is better and service is far superior.

Amazing kitchen and basement kitchenette designed by Jeremy at Main Line Kitchen design. Jeremy spent months following up on the kitchen details as the contractor was completing the work.

Main Line Kitchen Design is awesome and I highly recommend them. Chris Rosetti was creative and turned our small galley kitchen and mudroom into a cohesive and functional space. He was incredibly responsive and patient with all of our questions and requests. Working with Main Line Kitchen Design made an overwhelming project manageable and fun.

We are completely elated with our newly renovated kitchen. After filling out an online form Paul called the next day and explained the entire process. Of course, we chose to move forward. The initial contact with our designer Jeremy L went well and we soon saw 2 complete 3D renderings of what our kitchen could become. Jeremy proposed moving an existing door to maximize our space, and we were floored. The design, workmanship of the contractor and professionalism of the whole team was exceptional. Our new kitchen is phenomenal; it is a functional work of art. Mainline Kitchen Design are true artisans. My wife and I are eternally grateful for the care and experience of you all for helping our dreams become a reality., Thank you from, Mark and Rhonda!

We recently renovated our kitchen, dining room, and mudroom. We selected Main Line Kitchen Design based on a family member’s recent outstanding kitchen remodel (different designer). We were assigned to Jeremy who was very patient and pleasant to work with on our project. He helped guide the design in a way to maximize our smaller footprint in a manner that did not feel cookie cutter or forced (I.e. an island where there was clearly no room to do so). The showroom is pretty basic but plenty cabinet options to choose from there. Our counters came from recommended vendor, and that process was also uncomplicated and not stressful. We appreciated that the Main Line team carefully documented and measured before construction. Even with the diligent prep, there was a problem with one of the corner drawers opening after hardware installation. We were fortunate this was our only true hiccup in this project. The company was very quick to come up with a solution. Despite having to wait a few extra weeks to iron everything out, we were able to experience and enjoy our new space. We truly didn’t realize how limited our space was until it was reimagined. Thank you Jeremy and MLKD team for your hard work and expertise!

The team at Main Line Kitchen Design is INCREDIBLE. This was my first major renovation project, and Chris was incredibly patient with me and helpful every step of the way. He didn't just design a beautiful kitchen, he also helped me hire a contractor, problem solved with us throughout the project, managed delivery and installation of our cabinets in person, and returned frequently to make sure everything was going as planned. I could not recommend him and this business more highly. Chris even came back to our home several months after the project finished to adjust a crooked cabinet door. Truly the most supportive and knowledgable people I have ever had the pleasure of working with.

Mainline Kitchen was great. We were stumped as to how to incorporate an island in our narrow space. Designer Doug
Mottershead figured out a great island that seats a lot of bodies. He also steered us to cabinets we could get quickly as we had a wedding coming up. He measured and ordered and provided guidance on some tricky construction details. It all worked out and would definitely use this company again.

Jeremy and Paul were both amazing to work with! In my initial contact, Paul explained the process clearly and provided really helpful information that made my decision to work with MLK. Jeremy gave great initial designs that stretched imagination. He was very professional and easy to work with as we iterated different options and materials. They set me up with an amazing contractor as well! Overall great experience! Would work with them again!

We couldn’t be happier with our experience and highly recommend Mainline Kitchen Design to anyone looking for a team that’s not only talented but also genuinely dedicated to delivering outstanding results. Thank you, Chris, Paul, and the entire team!

I have always wanted to redesign my kitchen but had no idea where to begin. Chris from Main Line Kitchen design made the entire process easy and enjoyable. He guided me every step of the way from finding contractors to picking hardware for the cabinets. He was prompt and never left anything to chance.

A Main Line Kitchen Design renovation has just been completed in my home and I couldn't be happier. Paul, Chris and Juliet were wonderful advisors. With Chris and Juliet's experience and design talent I was finally able to visualize how to make my small, inefficient kitchen beautiful and functional. I now have more storage space than I thought possible. Juliet listened to my wants and needs and nudged me towards selections she thought I would like. She coordinated all ordering, scheduling and installation which made the experience less stressful. The final result is fantastic. I would definitely recommend Main Line Kitchen Design.

Main Line Kitchen Design has been a pleasure to work with. Their team is on top of every aspect of the kitchen remodeling process. Offering a wide variety of cabinets allows my customers to select a quality cabinet that meets their budgetary needs. Whether you’re looking for custom cabinetry or something more affordable that does not sacrifice quality they have you covered. I personally work with Jeremy and his experience in construction and creative ability to put a design together are unmatched.

We are so happy with our new kitchen from MLKD. We had a very outdated kitchen that was way overdue for a change. Jeremy did a fantastic job with the design and layout. The old dingy space is now light and bright and so well appointed, with very minimal structural changes. Communication was good-everything was easy. Would highly recommend them!
