We had closets throughout our home that needed to be finished with organizing systems. Instead of going with cheap pressboard we decided on California Closet systems with real hardwood material and installation with lifetime warranty. A consultant came over, measured the spaces, and consulted with my wife and I on how we wanted the layout to look and included all of the fine details. Overall the finished product was great, albeit a bit on the pricey side, but eh...what do you expect for real wood closets in the first place. I noticed that there were lots of holes in the sides so you can adjust the shelves (or they do that so they can prefabricate them all ahead of time for various layouts and don't have to worry about drilling exact holes later). Would have liked it if they had hole covers to fill the light wood holes (we got the cherry colored closets). Professional service folk that payed extra attention to our finished walls and floors so as to not damage them. Would use again.

Everyone at California Closets Hawaii was terrific. Everything was on-time. Suggestions were right-on for the finished product--including, somehow, all the heavy books fitting into the areas designed for them. I did not know how many there were, even. Total library count is over 1100. The finish colors and textures recommended blend into the room perfectly. The installers spread padded blankets on the floor for their equipment and the wood, asked permission to set up in an alcove as well, and had their system layed out quickly. There was a problem in that my floor was found to slope; but, the installers shimmed everything, then recut the toe kicks and molding. Everyone was professional. I would use this company again. I listed the pricing as and quot;fairand quot; because they are fair, and probably just a bit better than competitors. I requested plywood rather than fiberboard. When I checked at a trade show earlier in the year, two competitors were not able to accomodate with plywood construction.
Description of Work: An 8-foot long "reach in" closet with shelves, drawers, and hanger rods for shirts and slacks was designed. Additionally, a 9-foot built-in bookshelving unit was designed. Both units are 8-feet tall. The designer, Suzette, came to my home to inspect the area and listen to my needs. She offered suggestions that were right-on. The designs were ready for viewing in two days--except I wasn't. I met later to go over the designs with Suzette, chose the two I preferred, selected finishes and details with the designer's suggestions. The designer described that there were different sections of the shelving designated for heavier books versus lighter books. I requested an installation date a little earlier than they usually scheduled; but, they were able to accomodate me after reviewing production issues. The installers were on time, courteous, clean and synchronized in their work, and respected my property and home: totally professional. Two multi-faceted projects were completed in a single work day.
