1. Contract is very vague and open for interpretation which Harry interprets in his own way often - tip #1 - be sure to have all product information, time of services, and every little detail down in writing no matter how much he pushes back. He will provide a lesser quality product in a greater amount of time and done in a less than professional manner otherwise. 2. Harry is a his way or the highway kinda guy, so if you have any opinions on how you want your remodel done, be ready for push back from him. He will perform services and provide materials that he wants to and thinks is best, regardless of the homeowner's opinions 3. He took 3 weeks longer than the 1 week proposed. 4. He thought he was 'done' when there were still holes in our walls from him moving appliances and unpainted cabinets. Drawers and cabinets were hung crooked. He thought this was complete. I repeat, a self-claimed professional contractor would call holes in walls, unpainted cabinets, and crooked drawers a complete job. 5. He mocked my being a woman on more than one occasion. 6. He threatened me in my house twice. All which had no basis, fortunately my fiance is a lawyer. I could go on, but I am sure you all get the point. My fiance and I immediately changed our locks after Harry was done with the kitchen. I took a month to write this review mostly because I couldn't bare the thought of Harry again; however, I want to warn others to never hire him. Or if you are still inclined to do so, demand a detailed contract, keep an eye on all work and progress throughout the entire project (at least daily if possible). And, most of all, don't let him take advantage of you. This is your house and you are the one that has to live with it, not him.

Extremely dedicated to thinking creatively about the projects and talking through his ideas in a way that engaged my layman understanding of both design and construction work. His attention to detail was excellent, and he clearly takes great pride in his work. He drove around the bay area looking for cabinets that would match our existing set. Upon opening the box he discovered that one of the drawers was flawed, and he drove all the way back to South SF to replace it. All of this while staying within our agreed upon budget. The cabinet removal was a delicate job due to the granite counter above, but he and his crew handled it perfectly without a crack or chip to the granite. Joe is also very responsive to feedback - his initial design for our storm door left a small crack where the hinges attached to the wall. I asked him to figure out a way to cover the crack (imagine a 1.5 year old and a 4.5 year old finding all kinds of fun things to shove down there) and he took care of it without missing a beat. Overall, he was very responsive and easy to get in touch with over the phone. His work crew as professional and courteous, and I hope to work with him again soon.

The price is reasonable and does really good work. He had to reinforce the door the last time and he did a really good job on it and it didn't open up to the rain anymore like it was. I have a really old house and he knows how to fix the locks and worked on the old equipment to the house and there aren't many that can do that. He also fixed some of the bedroom locks for me too. I knew another family that he do the bathroom for and they just love it, it's beautiful, put in a new tile and did new cabinets and all that. The only thing about him is that it only takes a while to get him to come over because he's so covered up with work and you have to stand in line and wait for him unless it's an emergency like he has to fixed the toilet one time and he came right over and stopped the leak and all that but it's him for a while for regular projects. He's not cheap but he works with quality and I'd rather save up and use him than just get anybody. He doesn't have to come back and do it over the second time. The subcontractors that he recommended were really good and also with the plumbing when we did the backyard. I'm really pleased. He calls you back the same day when you call him. He always call me and let me know when he's coming. There's nothing wrong in what he does. I trust him. He also fixed my washing machine."},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/ca/san-jose/oxley-works-reviews-7782641.htm"},"position":10}]}
Cabinet Refacing And Refinishing reviews from real Angi homeowners in San Jose, CA
Rohan Cabinets did a fantastic job painting our existing kitchen cabinet shells and painting and installing new doors and drawers. We thoroughly enjoyed working with the owner, Candler, and his assistants. They communicated well and left the area neat and tidy. Candler helped with color...
There is no doubt in my mind that they'd do a beautiful job done to code that'll last, but MAAAAAN they're expensive! I think that's really my only complaint. I mean, an acrylic tub and surround/vinyl flooring shouldn't be $4500 more than an all-ceramic tile bathroom with a new steel tub....

The hardwood floor refinishing was stellar. The floor looks great. Initially, we thought the two bedrooms had hardwood underneath carpet, but later discovered that the floors were actually laminate. Joan did an excellent job of keeping my original (and very short) timeline over the holidays,...

The overall experience went well. The initial appointment, I felt, was very professional. They made sure and looked at all the details that the project entailed. They started with the roof demo which I also thought was priority. The demo was done efficiently and all debris was cleaned up...

FAQs for cabinet refacing and refinishing projects in San Jose, CA
The cost of cabinet refacing is $7,230 on average. However, it's possible to pay between $1,200 and $16,000 for this project. Factors like the number of cabinets and the refacing materials impact the total cost significantly.
For example, plastic laminate is the most cost-effective cabinet option for refacing, costing $1,000 to $3,000. If you're looking for solid wood cabinets, you can expect to pay more, ranging from $5,000 to $10,000 on average for refacing.
The difference between cabinet refinishing vs. cabinet refacing is that the latter involves replacing most of the cabinet components, whereas the former only freshes the exterior look of the cabinetry.
Cabinet refinishing involves the cabinetry being disassembled, cleaned, and sanded, then a new finish, like paint or glaze, is applied. You can refinish the cabinet doors or go further and refinish the cabinet boxes, too.
Cabinet refacing involves replacing the majority of the cabinet materials, including the cabinet, drawer doors, and hardware. In this process, a veneer is applied over the existing cabinet boxes to make them look new.
The cost to refinish cabinets is $3,000 on average. However, this cost can range from $700 to $6,000, depending on the size and location of the cabinets, the refinishing method, and number of cabinets.
Staining your cabinet doors is the most cost-effective option, costing between $4 and $10per square foot. However, if you choose to glaze them, that price jumps to $10 to $25per square foot.
While it’s possible to reface or refinish kitchen cabinets yourself, it requires substantial time, money, and sweat equity. In particular, cabinet refacing requires many tools and materials, costing you between $1,645 and $6,570, depending on what you already own. Besides that, this is a project that shows imperfections easily. If carpentry isn't your strong suit, hiring a cabinet professional is best to ensure high-quality results.
To prepare for cabinet refinishing or refacing, it’s important to remove all items from the cabinetry in question. In addition, clear any clutter from the room, whether it's the kitchen, bathroom, or otherwise. Be sure to have additional cabinet materials, such as cabinet hardware, lights, and glass inserts, ready for your cabinet installer to use.
Finally, if you have pets, ensure they are in a safe, separate location away from your cabinet professionals, who will bring materials in and out of your home during the process.
