"I am very pleased with the work done by JV Cabinets. They were timely and very responsive throughout the process. The refacing of the cabinets and updating the hinges have transformed the kitchen. The stone counter top is made of quality stone and was installed wonderfully. I will definitely have JV Cabinets do the kitchen in my other unit when the time comes."

"I can’t say enough about the incredible, outstanding, excellent job that Sam and Ricardo did on moving our Murphy bed to a new location at the other end of our house. It was a chore that I would have given up on but they did it without a scratch to the unit, our walls or paint! As one section had been glued together and was too tall to get through the doorway they ended up taking it outside and bringing it in through the window. I was amazed! They were so professional and easy to work with! I couldn’t be happier with the professional job they did and the Murphy bed looks great and works perfectly in the new location. I highly recommend MGM and will use them for any cabinet work I need done in the future!"

"Adval Construction The details were worked out smoothly. This company is well organized. My house had a slab leak that caused mold between the walls and kitchen cabinets. Abatement company to remove all mold needed the central heater/Air furnace removed. My family and I moved to a hotel for 3 days. Andy arranged for a technician to uninstall and install my furnace. I came back home on 3rd day and my furnace was being reinstalled. (It is been a cold winter). My walls, the platform my heater sits on, bottom kitchen cabinets have all been restored- it is better than before. They are sensitive to their customers financial situation-I could not come out of pocket so they accepted what insurance paid."

"It took us time to find a contractor. We got over Six quotes only two contractors actually sent us a bid. Ben was very responsive. He sent us the quote within a week from the visit. We were very satisfied with the process. We were always in the know. We have done renovations In the past with contractors and we were always not pleased with not knowing the schedule. We finally found someone we can trust and will definitely be using him again. Thank you again Ben it was a pleasure meeting you and working with you."

Customers say: True professional

"We found McCormick home builders through Angie’s list. They were not one of our original contacts, but they contacted us and came out to give us a quote. Matteo was extremely helpful, informative, honest, and gave us reasonable realistic prices, and did not try to inflate the prices or pressure us in anyway. We felt very comfortable with him immediately. We felt like he was a member of the family that we could just talk to and ask questions he was very personable. He gave us his contact number in case we had other questions and he was always available when we needed him for any type of questions or concerns. Mateo‘s team did a beautiful job. They were fast. They were efficient. They cleaned up beautifully. They did a wonderful job. They were very considerate of our time our needs and our neighbors. They were an absolute pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend Matteo from McCormick home builders for any home building projects, and we will be calling him again in the future!"

"Mr. Polanco is awesome. We went through several other contractors getting bids before Mr. Polanco. Their bids were ridiculously high and we had to supply the 20' redwood arbor beam, get it and the hardware painted ourselves. Mr. Polanco located the 20' redwood beam, painted it (2 coats of primer & 2 coats of paint along with the upgraded hardware), brought it to our home removed the old beam and installed the new 20' arbor beam. The job he did was beautiful! Mr. Polanco is fair priced, honest and the workmanship is outstanding. He is professional and very customer service oriented which is not easy to find with most contractors. The work area was left very clean when the job was completed. We are so happy we found Mr. Polanco and will call on him for other jobs for our home. I work for a real estate company and will certainly forward his name to realtors needing an excellent licensed contractor."

Cabinet Contractors questions, answered by experts

The Janka Hardness Scale rates wood species according to their hardness levels or density. On the scale, hickory ranks as the most dense hardwood that is common for use in making cabinets. While there are woods that are harder, they're uncommon in cabinetry. Maple, oak, and walnut also rank relatively high on the scale and are excellent for use in cabinetry. 

The 1/3 rule is a design guideline used by interior designers and cabinet installers to select appropriately sized pulls for cabinets and drawers. The rule suggests that for a balanced and cohesive look, a cabinet pull should be approximately one-third the height of the cabinet door or one-third the width of the drawer face. This guideline helps create a symmetrical appearance because the human eye tends to follow the length of the pull across the cabinet face.

While the 1/3 rule is a helpful starting point, it is not the only option. If a measurement falls between available pull sizes, it's generally best to size up. For an ultra-contemporary aesthetic, you can also opt for full-width pulls that span the entire drawer.

Since there are many methods of repairing your cabinets, including refacing and refinishing, it can be tricky to know when to replace or fix your existing cabinets. Generally, it’s best to repair your existing cabinets when the cabinet boxes are in good condition. Additionally, this option is best when you’re being budget-friendly or remodeling. 

Replacing your cabinets is best when you’re changing the layout of the room or when the cabinet boxes are in rough shape. It’s also best to replace your cabinets if you need more storage space, as this will remove the existing cabinets for new ones.

We recommend installing wall cabinets first so the base cabinets aren’t in the way. This order also prevents damage to the base cabinets if you drop tools or materials when installing the upper cabinets.

It is typically cheaper to buy stock or semi-custom cabinets than to build custom ones. The price difference is significant:

  • Custom Cabinets: Cost between $500 and $1,200 per linear foot. This price is affected by materials, size, design complexity, and door styles. For instance, a simple slab door's materials might cost $60-$70, while a decorative mullioned glass door could be $100-$200.

  • Semi-Custom Cabinets: Cost between $150 and $700 per linear foot.

  • Stock Cabinets: Cost between $100 and $400 per linear foot.

While buying pre-built cabinets is more cost-effective, building custom cabinets allows for full modification to fit unique spaces, such as rooms with high ceilings or unusual layouts, which stock options cannot accommodate.
