Had a great experience using RTC for my ikea cabinet install. They were very fast, efficient and super organized. Really appreciated their brining a laser level to show me where the wall was not straight and where it bowed which affects the installation. Richard has all his tools organized neatly and they carry all the right equipment. When they nicked the end panel he was also Honest and told me about it which is not something many contractors will do. They will hope you won't notice. It says a lot about their honesty and integrity which is why I highly recommend them over using the task rabbit installers for ikea. In addition to their very fair pricing !!! read more

Great experience from start to finish. The entire team was professional and friendly. We made a small adjustment to the original job at their suggestion and it worked out perfectly. The cabinets are installed much more cleanly than previous cabinets the IKEA installers fitted for us. We were missing a couple of pieces and they made a second trip without charging extra. Oh, and the price point is super competitive. Our job was very small and they treated us with the same care that a huge kitchen remodel would have warranted. One of my best ever experiences with a home improvement team. read more

This company was incredible to work with! It was very easy to schedule, plan and execute design plans with their team and I would highly recommend them above others that provide similar services. Their price point is competitive and they will work to make sure the job is done to your liking. Shout out to Don - who single handedly did our full kitchen and did an amazing job! Take note- they not only work in Los Angeles area but also Bay Area! read more

When we purchased our home, we made major renovations and I can find issues with everything everyone has done EXCEPT for the kitchen cabinets Richard and his team at RTC Services did. They were professional from day one and worked around contractors and movers but here are a few more reasons why they were so great: 1. When he came on day 1 of install, he said "i couldn't sleep worrying about whether the floors and walls were even". Richard is such a perfectionist he actually lost sleep worrying about our install and he was genuinely excited, like it was his own home, when he measured and saw that the walls and floor were even. 2. Richard made a trip to Ikea to pick up something we needed and only charged us for the actual item that he purchased and everyone who knows Ikea knows that alone makes Richard an angel. 3. Richard made suggestions in our layout that in hindsight the kitchen look so much better. 4. Ikea hardware (knobs and pulls) aren't great. Ikea's installers charge extra per knob or pull you use that isn't Ikea. Richard uses whatever you ask him to... that saved us hundreds. 5. He charges SIGNIFICANTLY less than Ikea's installers. Seriously, I could go on, but do not second guess yourself. Hire Richard and his team asap... they are booked out for good reason. read more

Exceptionally knowledgeable, professional, and kind people. We had Traemmand (through IKEA) install a previous kitchen and had a horrible experience. RTC has since done two ikea kitchens for us and we've had an amazing experience both times. read more

I would give these guys 6 stars if I could. They are so efficient, so meticulous, so professional. They have a high standard for their work and they know how to make off-the-shelf Ikea cabinets look high end. I appreciate the little pieces of advice they gave me along the way. If there's any drawback it's that they have a long backlog, but that comes with the territory. Just be sure to plan in advance. They are SO worth it. read more

Richard and his team recently installed our Ikea kitchen for us and I couldn't be happier with the service. He was incredible easy to work with and the quality of the finish is fantastic. Right in the middle of the install we noticed an issue with the floor we had installed (not by RTC) and Richard was amazingly flexible as we navigated that, coming and removing the island he had already installed and then putting it back in once the floor had been fixed by the other contractor. I truly could not recommend Richard and his team enough if you are installing an Ikea kitchen. Oh, and Pam, who manages bookings and communications leading up to the installation is amazing. Super quick to reply, friendly and offered some great suggestions when we had struggled to get specific parts due to Ikea stock delays. read more

Richard and team are professional and work at the highest quality standard. Remodeling a kitchen is a sizeable project... But for us it was compounded by the effects of COVID-19-era Ikea. Ikea delivery issues are well known but we also had items unavailable to us due to supply shortages. Which meant RTC had to make several return trips in our case. Email communication was spot on and our project was very well managed by RTC. They squeezed us in at every given opportunity. Answered all of our questions promptly, and showed up with proper safety face covering, proper equipment, and very clean and efficient work routine. 100 % better results than Ikea contracted installations. We can't be any happier. Thank you, RTC! read more

tl;dr - Richard and his crew did an excellent job installing our IKEA cabinets and Semihandmade doors. It took 3 separate trips to get all the moving parts handled (countertops, sink, plumbing, appliances) and Richard was flexible enough and accommodated our needs to get the job done. He's not the cheapest, but you definitely get what you pay for. His professionalism, promptness, and attention to detail are worth every penny. Hire him without hesitation. read more

I used RTC services for two projects, one to install my beautiful IKEA kitchen cabinets, and another to put a pantry. Both times the service they provided was very good. They are so good that the waiting list is about 6 weeks, but it was worth to wait to get excellent service and a kitchen you will enjoy for years! read more

If I could give 10 stars I would. Richard is a true professional. Not only is he an expert at what he does, he is a great human being to work with. I have been through multiple renovations and I wish I found out about this company sooner. He helped remedy multiple small issues, was very patient, super flexible with scheduling, and helped complete the kitchen. His team is fantastic. They are prompt, quick, and really really specializes in this. If you are doing an Ikea kitchen, I would not waste time considering any other option. read more

WOW!!!! After getting a quote from my Ikea referral it almost threw me off my chair!!! RTC and the gang did it for over half the price I was quoted! No secrets or surprises. just absolute honest work in record time! I couldn't be happier. I spent an hour talking to Pam who is an absolute angel. Thanks guys! read more

If you buy anything from Ikea from a desk to an entire kitchen, call RTC Services (Richard and Mike) to build and install! Professional...check Reasonable rates...check Clean and quick...check and Really nice guys!! Mike saved our kitchen remodel from turning into a nightmare. I want the guys who are recommended by Ikea to know how ridiculous their quote was. I was blown away by Mike's work. Our kitchen is ninety years old with crooked walls but that didn't stop Mike from putting in my cabinets and shelves perfectly. I couldn't be happier with the job they did. I will definitely use them again. Thanks!! read more

Very professional and punctual. They finished my installation in two days, it would of been one if Ikea had provided all the proper panels. Richard's experience shows in quality of work. Do yourself a favor and just call RTC Services for installation of your Ikea cabinets. read more

Richard and his team were simply amazing. I had so many issues remodeling my new home and the only thing that went smooth was the installation of my Ikea kitchen all because of Richard and his team! They were quick. clean, kind, and so wonderful to work with. Richard gave me suggestions and his prices can't be beat. He goes above and beyond. I highly recommend and encourage you to hire this company you will be so relieved you did. Thank you Richard for my beautiful kitchen! read more

Richard and his crew are incredible! We hired RTC Services to do our office kitchenette a few months ago, and now we are in love our new kitchenette. They were professional, reasonable, and very fast! Some of the parts for our cabinets never made it off the delivery truck (IKEA) and Richard solved the issue and made sure we were satisfied with our kitchen. read more

Richard and his team were phenomenal. We could not be more pleased with Richard and his team. Richard actually built our dream kitchen. He made some suggestions that really made our dream kitchen a reality and not to mention saved us money. We have a latge kitchen which required 2 days for installation. On the first day most of the kitchen was installed with Richard making note of so many items we did not need. In addition, he really listened to what we wanted and took the extra step to send us a detailed email of items that we could use to make our dream kitchen a reality. Richard and his team are incredibly professional and hard working, not to mention his level of perfection. If I could, I would rate him 10 stars!!! I HIGHLY recommend Richard and his team. read more

Richard and his crew did an wonderful job at installing my IKEA cabinet frames and custom fronts. They are very professional, came with every tool under the sun! Richard started by measuring the space and asked me a few things about the appliances. Then his crew went right into work. They took care of the details, made sure that I will still have access to the outlets. Also, I ordered the handles from China which were very difficult to screw. They were too short for my custom fronts. But RTC were able to help me inset the difficult one. Wow, they are true professionals! They also saved me a lot of money by not opening some of the extra IKEA drawer sliders and lights that I didn't need. I would hire them again! Great customer service! Reasonable price. Worry free. read more

Just had Richard and his team come out and install the PAX closet system and the IKEA bathroom vanity with Semihandmade fronts. WOW!!!! What an awesome job. So good at what they do. Could not have asked for a better team to quickly install this and make it beautiful. Would 100% recommend them to anyone!!! Will post pictures once the construction project is done. read more

This team is AMAZING. Richard and Don worked on installation of ikea kitchen cabinets and countertops at the company I work for. Super quick response to my request for quote. They finished a job in well under 8 hours that the IKEA recommended contractor claimed would take 2+ days and that they couldn't start for over a week! RTC worked with me and my urgency to get work started the next day after RFQ! Quality work. Great customer service. read more

Richard and his crew had been a pleasure to work with. I chose them off the reviews but booked them for the job because Richard answered all my emails/questions. I set up the install in advance and the day of install they arrived before I arrived. This was for my Home Depot Cabinet Install. It turned out beautiful, thank you!! read more

I accidentally stumbled upon RTC after becoming increasingly frustrated with the company Ikea recommends for installation (Sig. Services - if I could give SS zero stars, I would but that is a moot point. Back to what's important...) I am beyond happy with the services provided by RTC. They turned what could have been a kitchen nightmare into a dream come true. They showed up on time and ready work; my cabinets were installed in 1 day. And the job was done very well. I am one happy customer and gladly refer them to anyone needing Ikea cabinet installation services. read more

Richard was absolutely first-rate, on every level. He helped us out of a huge mess (our contractor suddenly refused to fit an IKEA kitchen, we were out of town, and both had covid, as it happened, and were really stuck!) I found him here on Yelp and he matched the best quote I'd had, and was able to start work 3 days later. He was kind and informative on the phone and clearly knows everything there is to know about the ins and outs of IKEA. He ended up helping us with more than we'd originally asked for, and all the work he's done has been brilliant. In this messed up/upside down world we live in right now, Richard has been a bit of a faith-restorer in human kindness and professionalism. Don't look any further. If he's available, he's your guy! read more

My old kitchen was in sorry shape, and probably hadn't been updated since the Nixon administration. So installing a new kitchen would be a huge undertaking. I love the IKEA kitchen concept, but the IKEA recommended design team/contractors were a nightmare. They were impossible to get a hold of and took 3-4 days to return a phone call. I was completely irritated and I started looking for alternatives, this is when I found RTC. I was pleased to see they were IKEA Certified. The owner Richard called me back within two hours. And his quote was like 1/2 the price. HIRED! His crew leads by Michael were outstanding. I can't say enough great things about them. They demolished my kitchen quickly and hauled away the rubble. I'm not savy with home repair, and he sketched out where outlets and items needed to be on the wall. This made everything much easier for me when I explained things to electricians and plumbers. They show up ontime and ready to work. Michael's three man crew assembled my 17x8 foot galley kitchen in 7 hours. That's incredible, and they even cleaned up afterwards. The kitchen turned out better than I could have imagined. IKEA says that you can install it yourself. That's a lie, measuring and assembling a mountain of IKEA boxes is probably the 4th circle of hell. Hire these guys, they do amazing work. read more

After getting an installation quote from IKEA's recommended vendor (more expensive than the purchase of the cabinetry plus a staggering 5-6 week lead time), I was given RTC's info from a trusted friend who had worked with them in the past. Within a day I was given a very reasonable quote, and an installation date within 1-2 weeks. I had purchased IKEA cabinetry but Semihandmade door and drawer faces. Richard and Juan knew exactly how to work with both, and the ins-and-outs of how Semihandmade's pieces were different from IKEA's, as well as how to make adjustments so it all worked together beautifully. Our house is 90 years old, so everything isn't perfectly level and even, but you wouldn't know it to look at the cabinetry. They did a stellar job making everything work. We had a couple of trouble spots due to our funky layout and Richard was able to help me find solutions for everything. The one piece of advice I would have would be to contact him BEFORE you purchase your cabinetry so he can help you trouble shoot before he shows up to install. I highly recommend RTC for all IKEA cabinetry installations, and will not hesitate to refer them to my friends. I am not a frequent yelper, but sometimes I feel compelled to call out extraordinary service. This is one of those times. read more

I tried to deal with Signature Services, but was not impressed. I had to badger them to get a quote after waiting for two weeks. And their quote was much higher than I thought was reasonable. I then started searching around to see that Signature Services has less than a stellar reputation. That is when I ran across RTC Services. They were quick to respond. I got a quote and the work done in less time than it took to just get the quote from Signature Services. They scheduled a time within a week for the demolition of my kitchen and performed the rebuilt four days later. I needed the time before the rebuild to move outlets and perform other tasks. RTC did a great job and the price was more than fair. I would highly recommend them again. read more

Richard is a marriage saver! I am so thankful we did not tackle our IKEA kitchen install and hired a pro. His services are in high demand so I would recommend you contact him a month before install. Unfortunately we had a cupboard sizing mix up but he took the time to detail exactly what I needed to order from IKEA and he returned a month later when I had all the supplies. Save yourself a headache and budget for an installer. read more

Richard is on it. Highly recommend. He did me a major solid coming out to our place up in Ojai TWICE, because IKEA didn't deliver all my items. Super flexible about coming back out and didn't even charge me for it. He also helped me organize the list of missing items for IKEA to send out - making it super helpful. He does clean work, is thoughtful and collaborates super well. Thanks for the great kitchen install Richard! read more

My wife and I did a complete remodel of our beach community "fixer-up" home. We initially worked with an independent Ikea kitchen designer (Rodney) are were super pleased with the new layout as it saved us a lot of headaches. When I asked for referrals for an installer I was only provided with one: Richard C., the original installer for all Ikea kitchens coming out of the Southern California stores. Richard, his son Michael, and the crew are consummate professionals. They're fast, clean and clear in their communications which makes for very easy alignment of expectations. On site, Michael was able to answer all my questions, provide guidance on next steps and various considerations, and his crew even went above and beyond by helping me nudge a couple of appliances into place. My home remodel project ran long. The original kitchen cabinets and framework were installed to allow us to then have the sinks, countertops, backsplash, etc. installed. RTC Services was clear as to what point they should be called back to complete the cabinet trims, handles, plinth, etc. Along the way I had questions on mounting the apron sink and the valence for the under cabinet lighting. Richard and Michael were more than willing to take my call and help answer my questions with their professional experience. When I scheduled Michael and crew back for the final install, they picked up right from where they left off and knocked out the rest of the kitchen seamlessly. read more

If you're hesitant about getting ikea cabinets, get them, and hire RTC team to install!! From the beginning, Pam, the coordinator made sure of a smooth communication and successfully scheduled us at the soonest, which is not an easy thing now that everyone's rushing to finish remodel before holidays. And when they came to install our cabinets, we were truly amazed by their work of ART. We have a 100yr-old house so the floor, wall and ceiling are all crooked. Richard, Michael, Steven, and Juan made precise and clean cut to fit every corner and level everything. Beautiful work. I wish I could hire the team for everything around the house! Thank you RTC. read more

Richard and his crew were absolutely fantastic. We were installing all new cabinets in our kitchen (some areas where there had never been cabinets before). We ordered our cabinets from Home Depot, so they were not even Ikea cabinets. I reached out to him (because he had such great reviews) to see if he would install non-Ikea cabinets as well, and lucky for us, he does! He was very responsible and did an excellent job installing our non-Ikea cabinets (which was extra challenging since our floor was uneven and it included uppers and lowers). He even used some of his own wood to substitute for a couple pieces Home Depot forgot to include in the delivery (as a temporary solution). I highly recommend working with RTC and Richard. Very nice, professional, easy to work with and did very quality work at extremely reasonable pricing. And he can install both Ikea and non-Ikea cabinets! read more

They were great to work with all around. Our lower kitchen cabinets were installed with excellence. Thanks.

Richard and his crew did a great job installing our kitchen cabinets once we decided we couldn't do it all ourselves. They're top notch when it comes to problem solving and working with Ikea products. They thought of so many things we didn't, and completed the job so quickly that we can now move forward with the rest of our kitchen sooner than before. We're so grateful for their help and expertise, and wish we had hired them for our previous house work! Highly recommend these guys, they won't let you down! read more

RTC assembled and installed by Bodbyn kitchen and did a great job. Their first install date nearly finished the installation but I had missing and/or damaged parts. Second install date consisted of aligning all door and completing the kitchen. Overall very professional, accommodating, and clean. I would definitely call Richard again for future Ikea remodels. read more

They were fabulous! Super knowledgeable and super helpful. They did a wonderful job!

If all contractors are as easy to work with as Richard and his team, life would be a lot easier. They did a great job installing our kitchen cabinets, and were significantly cheaper than Ikea's recommended installer. They were super accommodating too; when it turned out a wall another contractor installed was done incorrectly, they informed me of the issue and scheduled a third trip back when it was fixed. They were also very responsive to emails and any questions that I had about the installation process. Would highly recommend and would work with them again for any other Ikea installations I need! read more

RTC Services is simply one of the best contractors you can find. Their work, professionalism and speed is bar none. Richard is extremely knowledgable and an excellent problem solver on site when assessing the unique installation conditions of each job. We have used RTC on several projects and will continue to do so. Over the years we have never experienced anything less than five star service. Hire them! read more

Richard and Pam at RTC Services were excellent. From first contact to finish they were professional and timely. The pricing and contract was transparent and I felt that I could easily go over questions and concerns with honest and reliable answers. Richard and Juan did a great job with the install and Pam was there to answer my calls whenever I needed. I couldn't be more happy with how our kitchen cabinet install went. I highly recommend RTC Services and I hope to work with them again on our next home improvement project. read more
