While researching companies to update our kitchen we called North County Kitchens. We spoke with…read morethe owner who was polite enough on the phone and scheduled a time for him to come to our house to discuss what we wanted and for him to take measurements. The appointment was at 1:30 and I finally called him at 2:20 as he didn't show up or call! He had some lame excuse for not receiving the alert he made on his phone. He asked if he could come right over and we figured we would give him a chance. He is very talkative, mostly telling us what he wanted to do instead of listening to what we wanted. He was adamant about refacing our cabinets even after we clearly said we did NOT want that option. He claims to be a cabinet maker so he finally took the measurements and discussed some basic details. As he was leaving he apologized again for being late and even stated he would "make up for it with his quote"...that was on 3/13 and we have never heard from him. We are grateful we found out his work ethic before we hired him, and thankfully have hired another company that has been an absolute pleasure to work with. Do your homework and save yourself the trouble by just scrolling past his website- there are quality companies out there.

A kitchen remodel is one of the most stressful projects a homeowner can tackle. After years of…read moreprocrastination, we were awed by two kitchen remodels Andrew completed with high personal recommendations, we knew we found the right guy. My husband and I are very particular and detail oriented and Andrew listened to our wants and offered ideas resulting in a kitchen that surpassed our expectations. His wood working skills are spectacular. We opted not to change the footprint of our kitchen but removed a cooktop, double oven and built in desk, adding a range, built in microwave and additional cabinetry. The cabinet additions are a perfect, seamless blend. I love our doors and drawers, REAL WOOD not veneer! Andrew used samples of our existing flooring, new backsplash and countertop to formulate a stain and glazing that's just exquisite. The addition of the soft close and foot pedal for the trash is icing on the cake. To tie the kitchen and family room together, he also built a mantel and hearth surround for our fireplace with the same stain and details as our cabinetry... just exquisite! We (including our Great Pyrenees) loved having Andrew working in our home. He's honest, knowledgeable, has a great sense of humor and took the stress out of our remodel. I would highly recommend North County Kitchens.

Jason and his team at Fondare Finish Construction recently completed remodeling our kitchen, and we…read moreare extremely pleased with the results. Jason has high standards and makes sure his subcontractors and everyone on his team meet those standards, even when he must cover the cost of extra time and materials. He stands by his work. Every member of the Fondare team with whom we interacted--from the administrative staff to the electrician and cabinet installers--was professional and pleasant to work with. Our project was completed on time and within budget. We felt that we were in good hands every step of the way.

I thought about doing the kitchen floor myself (you know... gluing rectangles, no problem), but I am so happy I did not. Our house is a wonky franken-house and the original part built in 1934. He takes extra care in prepping / levelling the floor for the tile and takes no shortcuts. I know this is a literal foundation to a successful deployment. They started and finished the job within the time frame specified and stayed within cost. Adam laid out tiles on the floor to confirm I liked the spacing. He helped with advice on grout aesthetics and tile selection. Porcelain vs ceramic, where to look at and buy tile, etc. They finished in weeks what would have taken me months of night/weekends, not including the blood, tears, and (I assume) divorce. :) I am most impressed with the tile transitions and cuts around walls. Very precise. I told them I was OCD about the bathroom penny tile spacing, but they deployed it perfect. They take the doors off and will cut them shorter if necessary after the tile is in place. They do not typically remove or re-hookup appliances, vanities, toilets, etc. They are several months out, so don't expect to be scheduled in a couple weeks, but you might get lucky if someone cancels. He made sure I procured the tile before he scheduled the date, because shipping these days can be an issue for tile companies (supply-chain). He has tiled everything I need at this house. I can now advertise his services without impacting my own scheduling needs, so enjoy. :)

I can't say enough about Tile Unlimited. Adam is a true professional. I interviewed four local tile…read morecompanies and Adam and Tile Unlimited were the most professional, helpful and solid contractor. From the first conversation through material ordering, scheduling and install, Adam and his team kept me informed about the process and the next steps. Tile is not something that you want to DIY, even if you have other building trade skills. It takes a professional to do it right. Adam is careful and will not schedule the tile install until the site is 100% ready. I appreciate that. Adam will also take the time to stop by prior to install and check on the site and discuss details with you. From the first day of install, I could tell that Adam had worked out the math and had a plan for the layout. Our tile was relatively simple, subway tile, but Adam had worked out the layout both horizontal and vertical, taking into account the corners, plumbing and how the tile ends at the reveals. It's little details like this that make me happy at the end product. I'm happy to discuss Tile Unlimited further! Send me a message if you are interested!

West End Wood did the cabinets for my bathroom and kitchen and I couldn't be happier…read more I first worked with Gene last Spring for a major bathroom remodel. I had a very deep, narrow and awkward cabinet/closet thing that was impossible to access. His solution was an ingenious pull-out cabinet and he managed to match it perfectly to my Duravit vanity. I was happy to work with Gene again when I recently remodeled my kitchen. He built beautiful white shaker cabinets that are absolutely perfect. He also built a gorgeous walnut peninsula and matching desk and a set of built-in shelves above the peninsula. The cabinets really make the kitchen. And I love the functionality. The drawers and cabinets are all soft close; the drawers open all the way; and he included pull-outs in the pantries. Perfect.

Clean, organized, modern and barely a speck of dust in the entire building. I have been a victim not only of the fire, but of two unscrupulous contractors. Because of that, things fell behind schedule and tens of thousands of dollars were misappropriated. I was getting desperate to find somebody who could provide top quality cabinets in a short period of time. Serge was able to design and build almost 100 linear feet of kitchen and bathroom cabinets for my Tubbs Fire rebuild in less than month! I don't know if he can always guarantee that kind of a turnaround time, but it was truly remarkable. The workmanship and the design are second to none. He's not the cheapest, but you definitely get what you pay for in quality. My next project for Serge is a set of custom wall-mounted bunkbeds like I have seen on his website before. Looking forward to working with this company for a very long time.

I would recommend and use Serge again in a heartbeat. Very high quality workmanship.

We had a great experience with PV Tile in our home. Although Paul is very busy and tends to be…read moredifficult to schedule/get hold of, once we had the dates, he and his crew showed up on time and did a great job. We had to call them back to replace some of the tile they installed a little unevenly around the firebox (probably partly due to the firebox not being true) - but they did it without hesitation - even though it was a fair amount of extra work. Paul's right hand man on this job was Kurt, and he was also fantastic and very careful. The price was reasonable, and the prep he did was very good (replacing damaged drywall). He also offered us installation choices for our edges that made the most sense (compared to other quotes we received). Paul also did a great job working around our family - 2 young kids running underfoot didn't bother him at all. We felt very comfortable with him and his crew in our home. We will not hesitate to hire Paul again for our next tiling job.

Once I brought Perry Home from the hospital I think I realized just how hideous the interior of my house really was. We had already redone a bathroom but I couldn't stand the site of my yellow & brown kitchen. I turned to the app "Nextdoor "for recommendations in Marin. After about 8 interviews, my very last one in fact, happened to be Ed Roualdes. Not only was he the kindest of them all, he seemed the most professional. We started working up plans for my kitchen/dining area and before you know it dreams started becoming a reality. I think my favorite part about Ed is that he is a "yes" man. I came at Ed with new ideas all the time and throughout the entire renovation process I never heard the word No! Ed & Steve transformed my dream kitchen into a reality in just a few months! The quality of their work is flawless. They went above and beyond to ensure that everything was done with the future safety and well being of our 19 month old daughter. Things I never would have thought of! We've always heard that renovations can cause lots of fights and stress. Well I'm happy to report that my husband and I made it through just fine. Ed and his crew made everything pretty enjoyable and stress free from start to finish. They cleaned up everyday before leaving, which is a big thing for me. As happy as I am to have my beautiful kitchen back, I will say that we will all miss seeing Ed around here everyday. He really, truly has become a member of our family. * I've attached lots if pictures. I believe their work speaks for itself!
