We chose to go with all new uppers so you wouldn't see the refacing of the lamination as the uppers are highly visible. This was a $4000 additional cost (400 per cabinet). As it turns out, Kevin installed raw maple cabinets and refaced them with white laminate. A $4000 mistake on our part. Kevin claims this is because if he ordered white cabinets they may be a different shade of white from the doors and other trim and laminate. Huh?
We had requested under counter dimmable lighting to replace the lighting that existed. We learned that his plan was to install an outlet box in each cabinet, install a dimming switch in the cabinet and run wires on the inside of the cabinet to the puck lighting below. We chose not to more forward with that solution.
It took 2 additional weeks for some of the pieces to arrive and another week for the remainder. A total of 4 weeks for the project. Two legs for the center island were on the order but never installed. Kevin gave no explanation on the missing legs and we decided the island looked fine without them. I asked that the crown molding be raised as I could see the soffit behind and Kevin raised the molding an inch on one section of cabinets and touched up the old pin holes. When I said 1 down 4 to go, I think he took offense and questioned whether I wanted the other crown molding raised. Yes, so it would all match. They pulled the other molding down and raised it up but did not touch up. I could tell they were not happy.
On the final day, a week later, we asked for credit for the lights, the island legs, and for 4 drawers since we were initially billed for 14 drawers and only had 10. Kevin came back with a piece of paper showing $1000 extra for the 2 full size cabinet doors, and full size drawer and front, less 700 for the legs, less 375 for the lights, and less 600 for the 4 drawers. We thought about the $1000 for the extras and later sent an email to Kevin for clarification. He responded with "We want to make sure you are happy. How much would you like for us to send you back?" We responded with we weren't asking for money, just clarification on the amount and he responded with get a bid from Home Depot so you won't feel like you were taken.
I didn't feel taken until I discovered that 8 of the 10 new dovetail slow close maple drawers were cut and nailed back together as they too were measured incorrectly, thus cutting off the dovetails. These should have been replaced but he knew they were wrong and he did not even tell us.
Our recommendation: Ask for a detailed invoice so when something has to be changed or credit is due, you will know exactly how much.
