Custom Refacing LLC

It’s my pleasure to add yet another stellar review for Custom Refacing. Lonn first stopped out to our home early this year for the initial sales visit and completed his work in late August. While we had a couple of other contractors stop out as well, the decision to use Lonn was an easy one. You’ll be impressed with his soft spoken, no nonsense demeanor. He listens to what customers want and he makes great practical design and functionality suggestions. He’s not out to sell you anything. He’s very matter of fact and well organized and will do whatever he can to accommodate your list of priorities. A little bit about our project. Our home was built in 1959 and the current cabinets were originals. Eighteen years ago, we initiated a limited remodel that included adding new doors and drawer fronts, but it wasn’t a full cabinet reface. At the time, we also added new countertops, tile and an additional free standing cabinet. Our goal in 2022 was to create a more contemporary, user friendly kitchen. We wanted to move away from our dated golden-toned, wood grain cabinets and go mostly White, and also switch to new updated White Oak wood grain reface on the newer free standing cabinet as an accent. Beyond the cabinet reface, we also needed some reconfiguration of existing cabinets. This included eliminating a very old wall oven and separate cook-top and adding an over the range microwave to maximize limited countertop space. Such a change afforded us enhanced pantry storage in the former wall oven space. We did away with the gas cooktop and small cabinet below and added a new gas range to that location. Lonn then added new cabinetry above the range to facilitate the new over the range microwave. He also replaced the cabinet above the refrigerator for easier access and increased space and modified our free standing cabinet with new drawers, versus previous hard to access shelving. Lastly, he eliminated a bookshelf on the end of that cabinet to give us a more streamlined, less cluttered look with better access to a hard to reach broom closet. Lonn was punctual and his work commenced and ended right on schedule. There were no unexpected issues whatsoever. We did use the tile contractor that Lonn referred us to for the removal and replacement of the backsplash tile. He did a nice job and we were happy with him. We didn’t use Lonn’s regular countertop guy, as we found an alternative source for that part of the project. The bottom line is that we now have a far more contemporary and attractive kitchen with more usable cabinet space and greater shelf and drawer efficiency. Thanks to Lonn and his assistant for their thoughtfulness and expert handiwork. I wholeheartedly recommend Custom Refacing to anyone considering a kitchen refresh.

The whole process with Custom Refacing was great. We got three bids and theirs was the most thoughtful and comprehensive by far. They really listened to us and their bid reflected their understanding of what we wanted. This carried through to the measurement phase and then to the installation phase. Communication was excellent the entire time. They were very patient in answering our questions and were able to explain our choices in ways that made sense to us. The installation took four days. Each day they arrived on time, worked steadily all day and cleaned up before they left so that we could use the kitchen in the evening. Their planning was excellent and they were able to keep to their schedule. We were very impressed by the quality of the workmanship, the attention to detail, the teamwork they displayed and of course, the end result. On a project like this, there will always be some small issues to be dealt with. Custom Refacing took them all in stride. They completely exceeded our expectations. The kitchen is both beautiful and much more functional than it had been before the project. They are currently scheduling several months into the future but in our experience it was very much worth the wait. Custom Refacing provides a truly professional experience from start to finish. You won't be disappointed in choosing them.

Perfect from start to finish. We couldn't be any happier. Lonn is a professional who is punctual, organized and efficient and does high quality work. He took the time during the estimate and measuring to understand what we wanted and made helpful suggestions. We chose a cherry stain and cabinets and we got the color to match perfectly. All of the materials were high quality and the finish detail was excellent with no flaws. We also liked that the kitchen was cleaned up and useable each day after they left. When the job was completed we almost wished we had more work for them to do!

From start to finish, it has been a pleasure to work with Lonn. He was honest, timely and followed through on his commitment to reface my kitchen cabinets as discussed. Best of all, his hard work and skill set has made my kitchen look awesome! Besides myself, all of my friends are amazed how my old kitchen cabinets were transformed into a modern design. His knowledge of cabinet refacing was excellent and I appreciate my new kitchen cabinets. Thanks Lonn!

Lonn was amazing. I wanted to reface my cabinets, replacing all the doors on the lower cabinets with drawers. He was very helpful during the design discussions, giving me some options I had not considered, including replacing our desk area with more cabinets. His workmanship is superb and considering the amount of sawdust generated, his workspace was clean every night. I would definitely recommend Lonn.

Lonn did an excellent job. He was very professional and punctual. He made sure he explained everything up front, and kept checking in thought the project to see if we had any questions or concerns. Lonn cleaned up the work area at the end of each day, and at the end of the project. He pointed out a couple of minor defect that he wasn't happy with (and we likely wouldn't have noticed), and corrected those. Lonn finished the project on the timing he had indicated. Overall, we were extremely happy with the quality of the work and the professionalism of Lonn. I would definitely hire him again.

Lonn started the whole process to remodel the 1st floor. It took most of 2020. After we upgraded to new appliances, the next step was to reface our 1994 oak cabinets with Hirshfields Fruitwood stain on them. We ditched the stain idea and went with the two color combo. Lonn was very helpful on new ideas that we incorporated into the design. Removed the desk that no one ever sat at and built a box cabinet, custom pull out drawers over the refrigerator that now are much easier to get at, and added one foot of height and a larger custom molding all the way around. Lonn was on time, sensitive to our needs, cleaned up on a daily basis, and if problems arose tackled them in a timely manner. He also gave us names for the quartz countertops. In addition to the kitchen work Lonn also built us a custom mudroom cabinet with a bench and drawers attached underneath, also refacing the powder room vanity and the cabinet that was already in the mudroom. When completed Lonn said this was the largest job in the number of new drawers and cabinet doors that he had done. That may have change later in 2020. I would not hesitate at all to use Lonn again, and would highly recommend him.

Lonn Schmitz from Cabinet Refacing LLC recently finished our kitchen refacing and we could not be more pleased. His quality of work was remarkable down to every detail. He has a work ethic that is rarely seen, and his associates are at the top of their field also. The people who did the staining are very concerned about the outcome of the color you choose and will customize to the perfect tone. His experience was apparent. The craftsmanship on the job is beyond expectations and added so much to our home appearance. This update was a true value. I would hire Lonn again and recommend this company.

Lonn is, hands down, the best contractor you'll ever find to reface your kitchen cabinets! He is professional, ethical, respectful of the homeowners home, and his costs are very reasonable! You won't find a better contractor than Lonn! His work is top notch, his attention to detail is amazing, his respect for your home is always at the forefront of his time in your home (he cleans up every day before he leaves) and his genuine desire to provide his clients with a top-notch experience and end result makes Lonn the best and only choice for remodeling. They don't come any better than Lonn! I'm thrilled I found him - and i can guarantee that if you hire him - youll be just as thrilled! Fantastic in every way!

Lonn was amazing! He asked us what our needs were, then walked us through options that we could choose from. Lonn was able to enhance our vision for the the project and it is clear that his passion and expertise leads to high quality work. We were amazed at how he was able to help match the new cabinets with the previous ones also picking up on the small details making the kitchen look brand new.

Lonn was full of great ideas during the planning stage, and the end result is amazing. It looks soooo much better, and the feel of the hinges and glides is fantastic. We couldn’t be happier with what Lonn did for our kitchen. This may be the single best improvement we’ve made to our home.

Lonn came over to fix a broken interior hinge, but he replaced all four. The pantry door works beautifully, better than ever. And a a very low cost. Terrific service!

Custom Refacing should be your first and only call. Lonn will make sure you have all the information you need and he will execute on the work with top notch professionalism. We asked Lonn to reface some of the existing cabinets but also to build new cabinets to extend our space. He added pullout pantry shelving, garbage rollouts and had other great ideas for sheet pan pullouts etc. Impeccable work. Very attentive during initial consult and provided a quote promptly. We are recommending him to everyone that needs a new look for their cabinets. Thank you!

Our new kitchen is beautiful! Working with Lonn was great. We had postponed the project for years because it was so daunting, too expensive and we couldn't out how to solve layout problems. Lonn made suggestions that kitchen designers had not, he refaced existing cabinets, moved cabinets and installed some new cabinets. We now have beautiful cherry cabinets - we spent less money and kept our existing cabinets out of the landfill. We highly recommend Custom Refacing, LLC.

We are very pleased with the work. Lonn clearly explained the process and our options. All the work was completed on schedule. The quality of the work was excellent. Also, Lonn referred us to contractors for countertops and tiling. Those references were excellent as well.

We had our kitchen cabinets refaced in May, 2020. Lonn did an excellent job. We have had so many compliments on our cabinets. We will hire him again to do some our cabinetry upstairs as well. He was prompt and started when he said he would. He was very professional and very kind! We would definitely recommend him to anyone!

Working with Lonn at Custom Refacing LLC was the very best a Project like this could have gone. It is quite an upheaval to remove every last piece of everything out of your kitchen and have someone come into your home to work, but Lon was professional, efficient, and reliable. The cost was extremely reasonable compared to other quotes I received. He did excellent work and even finished early. The attention to detail was fantastic! From detail work on the cabinets themselves, to them creating a custom stain that would match my existing woodwork. I was very happy with the results, and would highly recommend Lonn to anyone who is considering refacing their cabinets!

We were very pleased with Custom Refacing. The end product of refacing our kitchen cabinets and family room and adding floating shelves turned out wonderfully! Lonn always showed up on time, asked if we had any questions, was very curious and told us what to expect every step of the way. Highly recommend Custom Refacing.

Lonn is exceptional. The work he did on our kitchen has exceeded our expectations. He was wonderful to work with: 100% reliable, responsible, and a superb craftsman. He is meticulous in all aspects of the work performed, from the estimate he gave, to the time frame and to the work completed. Incredible attention to detail. He was also extremely helpful as we were trying to figure out how to maximize the space and add some additional features. He is knowledgable and professional. We are thrilled with how he has transformed our kitchen. We are so happy that we chose Lonn, and will recommend him highly to anyone who wants their cabinets refaced.

Lonn is the ultimate professional and does excellent work. He came out within a few days to give us a free estimate on our kitchen refacing project, and had some great ideas on how we could get extra storage space in our small kitchen. We received three estimates for our project, and Lonn's estimate was the most reasonable by far. After reading his excellent reviews on Angie's List, we decided to go with him. We are very happy that we did. Communication was excellent-many choices on colors, wood for cabinets, etc. Lonn is an expert craftsman and cleaned up after the job each day. The kitchen project was finished in the time promised, and our kitchen looks great and functions very well. Very satisfied and would recommend Lonn to anyone.

Lonn did an excellent job. Professional and he knows what he is doing. He gave us several different options, we picked out the type we wanted (Cherry). He has several to pick from and also has several different styles of hardware. He was done by the time we got home from work, cleaned up very well and completed the work within the time frame he indicated.

We are very pleased with the work that Lonn Schmitz performed to make our kitchen beautiful. His ideas expanded our plan to include more space. Communication, respect, trust, reliability, honesty, intergrity and patience are all in his wheelhouse. Lonn's primary concern is a happy customer.. He and Nick were efficient and completed all the work themselves. He works with top quality materials. We love our soft touch drawers and doors. He was comfortable with my need to be meticulous, probably because he is, too. Bottom line: we would use him again and will refer others to him in the future! He receives and A++ rating from us.

Lonn did a excellent job. He offered suggestions during the planning process, which we appreciated. The change made converting cupboards to drawers has been great. Much better use of space. I can't say enough about how well he cleaned up each day and then at the end of the project. He did everything possible to minimize the mess made on such a big job. Everything was completed as promised and with excellent workmanship. THANK YOU Lonn!

Superb. Lonn was an expert designer, and helped us anticipate unique install opportunities we had not considered. Lonn and his install crew were professional, and adaptive to modest changes in the final product. I unequivocally recommend Custom Refacing. Down the road, when bathrooms will require cabinetry, we will first consider Lonn and his team.

Lonn Schmitz helped to redo our 30+year old, oak cabinets into a brand new kitchen. His knowledge/expertise, workmanship and professionalism was evident from the first preliminary appointment to completion of the job. All of our questions and concerns were always fully and quickly answered, putting us more at ease as the project progressed. When at times we were unsure of something, such as size and placement of hardware and asked his opinion he carefully helped us. We also asked him to build new vanities for three bathrooms and he exceeded our expectations. The new cabinetry is beautiful. This was a project that we were nervous to undertake not knowing how the refacing would look and if it was as cost effective as we hoped. It was worth every penny and because of Lonn and his skills, we are enjoying our new kitchen and bathrooms!
