We had a rough idea what we wanted- a wall of shelves in our living room for books and media but we weren't exactly sure about the details, what kind of wood, stain, design, etc. She showed us many pictures and showed us wood samples in her office, and came to our house to help us decide what would work best in our living room. She gave us much more personalized attention than a previous carpenter we had contacted, and her estimate was about 25% lower. Her crew started and completed the work in the time frame they promised, and there were no overruns on the price estimate. It completely changed the look of our living room for the better. The unit is versatile because the shelves are moveable, even though it looks like they are permanently in place. We now have a useful and beautiful living room wall. I highly recommend Monterey Cabinet and Woodworking. Georgine is a pleasure to work with and her crew is highly competent.

We were likewise thrilled with the quality of the work, and the finished kitchen and bathroom look absolutely beautiful. Jarrod did most of the work himself, including the heavy construction and installation of cabinetry and appliances, and the few subcontractors that he used for tiling and electrical work were similarly highly qualified. We will definitely use Evergreen Construction again.

Just as he did for his previous renovation project, he took such care with passion and integrity. My favorite is the gas fire pit. I showed him a square cereal bowl and told him that is the shape of the fire pit that I would like to have. In the matter of a month or so, I had a fire pit, even better than how I pictured it, yes in the shape that I wanted, matching nicely with the beautiful stone walls in front of the house that Butch recently worked on. This is what I like about him and the reason why I cannot go with anyone else when it comes to designing. He really wanted to know what I like, had me drive around look at different landscapes, research about what sort of plants I like, then discussed with me various times as both Butch and I came up with new ideas to incorporate to the project. I watched what I pictured in my mind become real. It was very uplifting process. I can say the same about the remodeling project. I feel a sense of ownership and closeness to everything that Butch worked on as he let me get involved in the process of it from the beginning to the end. I am still mesmerized by the beauty and perfection of his work. Consider yourself lucky, if you can manage to get him. Good luck with your project!

I might use them again; however, would have to carefully weigh the cabinets' pluses against the service minuses. I would look long and hard for another source before going back to them. The looks and quality of the cabinets are excellent; unfortunately, follow-through was lacking. I was looking for a special look and sturdy cabinets; and found what I wanted at Huntwood. I was also able to get "up-grade" to plywood boxes at no additional cost. Several cabinets had "organizing inserts" that Huntwood installed, without any issues. However, I also had a special cabinet design, which they totally got wrong on the first try. The cabinet sent didn't not match the specifications provided (doors/drawer front didn't align to match adjoining cabinets) and they didn't get a special hinge right, so one door didn't open as designed. Extensive emails and phone calls followed; and finally I personally had to draw the cabinet specifications and email it to them. Finally, four weeks later, I got the correct cabinet. In addition, all the cabinets were shipped with the wrong drawer glides. Again, numberous calls and emails, and finally Huntwood sent some; but only half the number needed. Another 10 days, and calls and emails, before we finally got the rest. But, the glides were sent without the necessary attachment mechanisms. Again, more calls and emails, and another 10 days, before we got some, but, again, only half the number needed. I had had enough, and ordered the remaining myself from a supplier, and got them in two days. Huntwood said the would reimburse me the cost of the mechanisms I ordered myself; however, I never received the payment.

FAQs for residential design projects in Monterey, CA
One starting point to find a local home builder is to collect suggestions from friends and neighbors. However, it’s still wise to do some more research before you hire a builder. Read reviews to supplement any word-of-mouth recommendations. Check sources like Angi that have standards and criteria in place to screen the pros it lists can also help you find more reputable local home builders.
The cost of home remodeling is $50,000 for the average homeowner. However, this cost can range anywhere from $3,000 for a small projectto $170,000 for a whole home remodel. Factors like project size, location, and room type all affect your overall cost. For example, bedroom remodeling costs are one of the least expensive projects, costing about $1,500 to $5,500 per bedroom. However, a kitchen remodel has a significant cost range, totaling anywhere from $14,500 to over $70,000.
Typically, it’s more affordable to buy an existing home than it is to build a new one. New construction loan interest rates tend to be higher than interest rates for traditional mortgages. Additionally, the cost of materials is likely higher when building a new home than it was when an existing home was built (unless it’s a very new one). You’re also paying for all new appliances, finishes, permits, inspections, and connections for water, gas, and electricity.
Yes, most states require home remodeling contractors to be licensed, and for good reason. Hiring an unlicensed home remodeling contractor could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations.
As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:
The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review
Paying to advertise their services
Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi
Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
The best time of year to remodel your home is late winter and early spring when fewer homeowners are thinking about projects and pros are more available. Also consider the type of remodel you want and plan ahead as much as possible. For example, the summer is a great time of year to update your fireplace, but winter is a better option for fixing foundations and building room additions.
