"Josh was professional, easy to work with, very communicative and did an amazing job designing and building custom bookshelves for us. He was able to seamlessly incorporate our existing crown molding to make the full wall bookshelves look as if they had been there for 100 years. We highly recommend JT Custom Woodwork and can't wait to use them again!"

"The Kitchen cabinets and appliances that both Joel and Paul suggested fit my needs and its helping me now to enjoy mi kitchen even more.  Cabinets can be the biggest expense when it comes to remodeling but they help me to keep the cost low not compromising with the quality of the product. From the beginning they were always professional and attentive, their follow up and attention to details are great and they always ready to answer any of my concerns, I will definitely recommend them to my friends and neighbors.
Great job Joel and your team at Appliance Driven.

"Frank, the owner, is awesome.  I made an appointment with him, and he came when he said.  He refinished a very special hutch that has been in my family for about 100 years.  At the time he came to see the hutch, we were dealing with losing my mom and cleaning out her house.  Frank picked up the hutch at her house in queens and delivered it to mine in suffolk when it was done.  He gave me a great price.  I cannot say enough about Frank's personality and ethics.  Having to deal with so many other things going on at the time, it was so great to have someone who just handled everything and did so with respect, consideration and professionalism.  The only thing I had to do was get handles and choose the color.  After Frank's employees finished half the piece, Frank was not happy with the color. So, he called us to go back and pick another color.  Frank kept in touch every step of the way.  This hutch is so very important to me and my family, and I did not feel the least bit nervous about leaving it in his hands.  Based on his reviews and his personality, I knew it would turn out great.  Well, it far exceeded my expectations.  They had a lot to deal with.  The piece was originally redone by two different people, so the top was a different color than the bottom, and none of the doors were ever refinished.  As a matter of fact, one of them was sanded way too much, and we were worried that it would not turn out well.  In addition, four of the doors on top are beveled glass--not easy to strip the wood that surrounds it.  Despite all of the challenges, they did an awesome job.  I have never in my lifetime seen that hutch look so beautiful.  When they carried in the first piece, it brought tears to my eyes. Words cannot express the gratitude and happiness I feel for the experience I had with Frank and his employees and how beautiful the hutch turned out.  With so many companies not caring about their clients, it is so important to me when I find someone who is the complete opposite.  I will recommend Frank to everyone I know who is looking to have anything refinished, and I plan to send him more of my own furniture.  This was an awesome experience.  I just sit and stare at the hutch because I cannot believe how beautiful it looks.  With all of the problems, it is a miracle how beautiful it looks.  Oh, and let me not forget, Frank personally delivered the hutch with one of his employees.  I still have not put anything in it because I am loving the way it looks, and I'm just not ready to change it right now.  Thanks for everything Frank.  You are fantastic all around.

"PERFECT! PERFECT! AND MORE PERFECT!
 We found this place called Trust Builders, LLC, on Angie's List  (Of Course), and James (people call him Jim) had answered the phone. I called him up on the phone letting him know what the situation was, and how bad it was. Jim did a perfect job with everything that he did here. First of all, this is a very hard working man. I have never seen anyone take out LARGE portions of walls apart, so meticulously, so perfectly neat and with precision skill. The wall sections that were damaged were removed and discarded. Jim gets right down there in the wall, and takes out ALL of the dangerous BLACK MOLD by removing that harmful horror that we lived with for so many years. He was working so vigorously and managed to vacuum out everything that was such a difficult and tedious job.
Jim worked for many hours on his first day at the house, RE-building the beams that rotted out on the first wall that needed work. Everything to perfection. The next and last visit to work here, was just as industrious and he just works his heart out. This guy worked so hard, we felt that he was really true to his word. He gave us a written estimate of EXACTLY what work needed to be done, and to the mark, we paid that exact price. In fact, the verbal price we were quoted at the beginning was higher than what we actually paid, due to the fact that the second wall was not as rotted as the first, and required less work. Jim told us that himself, he didn't mince words or take extra because it didn't require as much work as the first wall. Very Honest, Jim let us know right away, there would be a REDUCTION in our estimate.
*************************************************************************************************************************************

I'll tell you something, this guy puts hard work, sweat and strength into his work. Jim KNOWS this business. He acts like a  PROFESSIONAL throughout, he was prompt, and got started almost immediately. He even ran out to get the materials after he was here, showed us receipts for all he purchased, and even left us the extra materials!   I would ABSOLUTELY hire Jim again on the spot. All I can say is, a job like this takes a lot of precision. If a contractor doesn't do the work correctly, harsh chemical black rot irritants could become airborne. He was very careful and we got kicked out of the room to the upstairs (nicely) for our safety. He cleaned every bit of the areas that were worked on, that the area didn't even seem like anyone worked there. Only that it looked so much better. Great Job. If you know anything about carpentry, if it isn't done right, it becomes a real big problem.  The price that we received for all of this work was unbelievably reasonable. VERY REASONABLE FOR ALL OF THE WORK THAT WAS REQUIRED OF THIS JOB. Friendly, Professional, Business - Like, and knows the business. Is there ANY reason to use anyone else? I recommend Jim for this type of work. You wouldn't believe all of the other beautiful woodwork he does. I've seen it in pictures.  Everything as promised here both in work detail and in price.  WHAT ELSE CAN I SAY? AT THE END OF THE DAY, WE WERE EXTREMELY PLEASED. Hire again?  ANYTIME!  YOU BETTER BELIEVE IT  : )    

****************************************************************************************************************************

AND I HOPE THAT WE ARE ALLOWED TO SAY, WE LOVE EVERYTHING THAT HE DID FOR US AND LOVE HIS WORK!

THIS IS THE WAY WORK AND SERVICE SHOULD BE!  GOOD SERVICE IS RARE THESE DAYS. WE ARE  HAPPY CUSTOMERS!  "

Cabinet Making questions, answered by experts

It’s much less expensive to build your own garage shelves, and you’ll still get stable, long-lasting, and sharp-looking shelves. Garage storage systems cost between $615 and $2,635, with the national average of about $1,455. Building DIY garage shelves typically costs less than $500, and the quality of a DIY garage shelving unit will almost always be higher than what you could buy premade for the equivalent price.

There’s no strict rule about which way cabinet doors should open, but generally, double cabinet doors should open away from each other. With single doors, you want to avoid having them block your path or swing into  areas where people need to stand. Some kitchens are angled so that cabinet doors may crash into something no matter which way they swing, but the methods above can help prevent damage.

Before making any big plans, climb up a step ladder and closely examine the top of your cabinets. You’ll get to see what sort of clean-up work needs to be done, but you can also check for any unexpected obstacles. Sometimes this space holds electrical boxes, wiring, or even plumbing components. Those will affect plans to install a new layer of cabinets or shelves.

You aren’t obligated to tip cabinet contractors, but you can choose to do so if they went above and beyond and you want to show your gratitude. This is usually something in the ballpark of 10% to 15% of your total cost. As an alternative, you can provide snacks and drinks for workers and/or offer to serve as a reference for prospective customers.

The cost of cabinet installation is influenced by several factors, including the material and type of cabinets, the level of customization, labor rates, and any additional features such as soft-close mechanisms or hardware upgrades.
