CabinetReface Kitchens & Bathrooms

.

I absolutely love my kitchen redo! Mike and Cabinet Reface do so much more than refacing cabinets. They do reface cabinets beautifully. The cabinet doors are wonderful and the white refacing is gorgeous and has held up so well for the past two years. Mike worked with me on color, which was very helpful. He also built new drawers and shelves in my cabinets and made a new overhead space for our microwave. The new factory-fired wood doors are beautiful -- and have held up so much better than a custom bathroom cabinet we had made by another contractor who hand-painted them. They also moved a cabinet and shelf. They were very creative and helpful. I highly recommend them! Refacing was much less expensive than all new cabinets, which we didn't need. I love being in my kitchen. I'm so glad we did it. Love it!

They were very professional, timely and did quality work. They came back for a few minor touchups and gave us a one year warranty on all work. This was a big job and it was messy although they cleaned the work site throughly at the end of each day. Mike warned us in advance of the mess but the end results were amazing. It totally transformed our kitchen and look great.

Pathetic. The "deal" was for a cad drawing. Instead I paid him to do an informal ballpark estimate to refurbish our kitchen and bathroom cabinets. When he was at our house I mentioned to him that I thought it strange that I was essentially paying him to give me an estimate to do work for us. I have never done that before. Furthermore, we had to remind him several times to give us his estimate which wound up being in the form of an email (no formal quote - why did he bother to come out?) that ranged in cost by thousands of dollars. This poor experience has made me much more skeptical of the Angie's List "deals". Haven't done one since and may never again.

He responded initially quickly and we were able to set up an appointment but I didn't hear from him again for five or six weeks. I got the bid Tuesday this week. I followed up with him via email a couple of times and he didn't respond. Then he finally did call and said he had some personal family issues or whatever. He called me one day late last week and then we finally met this Tuesday. He left me a quote for the kitchen but the primary reason that we started this was the bathroom. He brought his plumbing people out and I'm still waiting the quote for that. He did do a sketch and it was easy to read and follow. I've gotten bids before and it never cost me anything. When he would set-up an appointment the two times, he was there right on time. Initially, for the kitchen which is the only bid we've gotten, it seems way too high for what we're having done. There's a good chance we may not use them but I want to see what the bathroom quote is before I decide.

There was never a date set for e initial meting. I've not heard from them in weeks.

The shelves are of high-quality. They are working splendidly and I really like them. I will refer this company to anyone who would want any type of cabinet work done.

The subcontracted painter came late and did not do as well as expected. The rest of the project went well. The subcontractor installed extra back splash tile that was not in the original contract and did a great job. I completed the final touch up items for the extra work that the tile contractor completed.

Just a estimate

Overall, very good experience. Mike is honest and hardworking. His subcontractors are not always on-time or totally thorough but generally also do good work. The kitchen looks beautiful.

The experience went well and we are very pleased. They did a very good job. They made one slight mistake but they responded to that. I didn't notice the mistake but they called me and told me about it. I did not have to approach them. I am very pleased with the way they handled everything.

It went well and looks beautiful. One of his guys accidentally put a ding into my new stainless refrigerator and Mike's insurance covered the cost of replacement and installation of a new door. I was very pleased with the work performed by Mike's subcontractors. As a matter of fact, I contracted one group to redo my bathroom.

Worker was on time and confirmed exactly what I expected of him to do. He was careful to protect my cabinets, stove and microwave before starting the job. The vent was installed perfectly.

Mike gave us several ideas to make our kitchen better by using his computer to let us see his previous work.He also gave us suggestions about how to make our shelving and drawer guide systems much better than they had been before. His started a 8 AM, worked all day, each day, and cleaned up the kitchen before leaving. The kitchen was sealed with plastic so that dust did not get into the rest of the house during the construction. Mike and his carpenter were real craftsmen. Doors aligned perfectly, seams matched, drawers and glides worked perfectly before he want on to the next detail. I am very happy I picked a real craftsman in getting this kitchen makeover. It was a good value for my money.

I would HIGHLY recommend Mike to anyone, friend, family, and acquaintance. He was professional, courteous, prompt and reasonably priced. I got a quote from another contractor to do the same thing for well over two times what Mike charged for the job and the scope of Mike's work was more extensive that the other guy. There was a slight delay in fabrication of the countertops by Mike's vendor, but he kept us informed and updated regularly. Once the materials arrived, all the work, start to finish was completed in less than three days, with minimal inconvenience or interruption of the use of our kitchen. In fact, the sink was only out of commission for one evening mostly due to the fact that the old, occluded plumbing needed to be replaced and a trip to Home Depot was needed at the end of the day. Additionally, cleanup was performed at the end of each day well enough that my family had the use of the kitchen during the evenings.

I did not know whether or not we could match new doors to the existing wood stain on the cabinets. I thought we were going to either have to paint the cabinets white or replace all the cabinetry. It was a perfect match and we saved about $8,000 if we would have had to replace cabinets. I recommend Mike if you like personal attention and you have the time for the craftsmanship. Others may get the job done faster, but you will probably not get the quality you want.
