The Original Mr. Cabinet Care has been family-owned and operated by the Jaridly family since 1987. Founded by Moe Jaridly and his three sons—Sam, Sid, and AJ—the company has grown from a small 1,500 sq. ft. shop in Santa Ana to a 24,000 sq. ft. factory in Anaheim. With over 29,000 satisfied clients, Mr. Cabinet Care is one of Southern California’s most trusted kitchen remodeling companies. They've been voted the #1 Kitchen Remodeling Company and are the only 18-time winner of California’s People’s Choice Award.

"Having hosted the HGTV program “My House is Your House”, we’ve worked with and vetted many cabinet builders across San Diego and Southern California. I cannot understate enough how much of a mistake it was to choose Mr Cabinet Care for our kitchen cabinets on an Encinitas project. We are extremely disappointed with our experience with Mr Cabinet Care. We arranged & purchased custom cabinet drawer fronts that were supposed to be high-quality, but they arrived with noticeable gaps. the gaps were problematic for two reasons: 1. for the drawers / doors that closed incorrectly and 2. for being prone to collecting food debris (and unable to clean or remove that debris). When I contacted the company about this clear defect (the food /gap error), they completely dismissed my concerns, blaming “care and maintenance” instead of acknowledging the poor workmanship. Even worse, they provided doctored photos in an attempt to shift the blame, falsely suggesting that residue such as gum or putty had been left on the drawers. Not only was this completely untrue—no such residue existed in any of the photos we originally provided, nor in any additional photos we took. Falsifying evidence to avoid responsibility is not just dishonest; it’s unethical and gives us even greater concern over other claims they’ve made in workmanship or materials. The operations manager even said “The material you selected, White Oak Select, is naturally prone to expansion and contraction due to environmental factors such as heat and humidity. Upon reviewing the photos taken by the technician, it appears that the issues you are experiencing are likely related to care and maintenance, rather than any manufacturing defect.” These were installed weeks prior to our notice, not years later, and during a cool weather season. To claim extreme weather (like heat & humidity) in San diego is laughable and outrageous. Under California law, products like these are covered by warranties ensuring they are fit for their intended purpose. These drawer fronts clearly do not meet that standard, yet the company refused to honor its obligations. Instead of standing behind their product, they chose to manipulate the situation to avoid accountability. Beware if you work with them and have future warranty issues, youre going to likely run into similar defenses and accusations. I would strongly caution anyone considering doing business with this company. If they are willing to misrepresent facts and dismiss valid concerns, I can only imagine how they handle other customer complaints. We regret this purchase for our client and would never recommend them to anyone looking for quality craftsmanship or honest customer service. We will not be using them for any future HGTV projects nor recommending them to other clients or customers"

Cabinet Making questions, answered by experts

If maintained, custom cabinets can last up to 25 years or more, nearly double the lifespan of prefabricated cabinets. Of course, this longevity comes with a higher price tag. If you have the budget and plan to live in your home for decades, it’s a worthwhile investment.

When it comes to cabinet hardware rules, there aren’t any. Let your personal style and budget be your guide. You can mix and match hardware or use all one kind; the choice is yours. But if you could use some overall guidance, many homeowners like to use knobs on doors and pulls on drawers. 

Clean with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals and keep cabinets dry to prevent damage.

Clean regularly, avoid overloading shelves, and check hardware for wear to ensure longevity.

The designs are different enough that a conversion would mean more or less fully replacing cabinets to switch between the two. However, if you really like the frameless look but you have face frame cabinets, you may be able to mimic the style by replacing your cabinet doors with full overlay ones.
