SURFACE SOLUTIONS LLC

I bought an older home that needed renovation. I liked the layout of the existing kitchen so I decided to reface the kitchen cabinetry instead of installing a whole new, custom kitchen. The price is about half. I met and got a bid from Surface Solutions, TJ Bonney. I liked his demeanor and straightforwardness immediately. He gave me a fair bid and I hired him. In addition to receiving new doors, I got new drawers and drawer fronts. TJ was able to put in shelves that pull out in my pantry for ease of use. He also arranged to have my quartz countertops installed. My kitchen turned out beautifully and I couldn’t be more pleased. TJ showed up on time each day and worked non-stop to complete the job. After completion of the job I decided to get a taller refrigerator than originally planned. TJ came back out and made the changes to the cabinet above the refrigerator at a very reasonable additional price. If you want a kitchen that looks brand new in just a couple of weeks and at a reasonable price then this is the way to go. Without hesitation, I give TJ Bonney my highest recommendation.

Very well. Good high quality work, high quality materials, respectful of our needs, and also had the lowest price of all bids obtained. Local business.

Really well. He got the job done in the time frame he said he would. The cabinets look AMAZING! We had new cabinet doors put on along with wood veneers on the sides. I was a bit nervous about how the veneers would look, but they look beautiful. He also built a few cabinets and drawer pullouts, which we are really happy with. TJ and his son worked together and were kind and professional. Installation was quick.

TJ is very responsive to his customers. He was on schedule and easily worked around the electrician's and plumber's schedules. My new kitchen is beautiful and a joy to cook in. Thanks TJ!

TJ was very good at listening to what we wanted.  We had many little details that we wanted right and he made careful notes and completed each task to our satisfaction.  He was very busy (as good contractors are), but he was honest, and punctual with his schedule and for the most part did everything on time and completed the job when he said he would.  He was not a high pressure salesman, and never pushed us to take on more scope/cost than what we wanted, but he did suggest good ideas and some of them ended up being in the final design.

He was respectful of our house and took care when he was there.  While his primary skill is painting cabinets and backsplashes, he was able to do an excellent job at cabinet modifications, and moldings.  We are thrilled with how our kitchen looks now and we felt the price was very fair for the amount of work involved.  TJ ended up not being 100% satisfied with some of the hinges (existing), so he upgraded some hinges/sliders for free, just because he wanted us happy.  I would definitely hire TJ again, and would recommend him to close friends/family, as well as the general community.

My kitchen and bathroom cabinets were very worn and outdated.  TJ replaced the doors and drawers in both rooms.  The materials and workmanship were excellent.  The work was done in one day and it was an amazing transformation.  My kitchen and bath are beautiful and very functional now.  I am so happy with the results of their workmanship.  It was a great investment: looks like brand- new cabinets but it cost about 30% of the other estimates I received to remodel.  TJ was very flexible about scheduling and went out of his way to perform the work before the Christmas holidays.

What a great experience! TJ is extremely competent and professional. He took the time initially to inquire into the details of what we wanted and provide options (without "upselling").  He delivered exactly what he promised, in less than the expected time and at the contracted price. His helper Chris also did a fine job.
We had updated our kitchen with granite countertops, but the cabinets were nearly 30 years old.  We replaced 80's honey oak with natural maple.  What a difference the refacing made! TJ said they would look new when the project was done, and he wasn't kidding.  His craftsmanship really shows.  The only down side is that our old refrigerator now looks out of place...

We have a house built in 1996 with honey oak kitchen and utility room cabinets.  Over the years we have updated the kitchen with new appliances, granite counter tops,  tile floor and back splash. We finally decided to take the plunge and see what we can do to update the cabinets.  our best option was refacing.  We looked a various options at the Spring home show.  We decided to call in three companies for estimates.  Two of the bids were signiificantly higher.  The last bid was from TJ, the owner and installer at Surface Solutions.  It was nice to talk to the installer and not just a salesperson, who could not answer all of our questions.  We liked what TJ had to offer.  The only down side of Surface Solutions, was he did not have actual cabinet door face front samples, only pictures in a catalog. It would be  nice to touch and feel and see actual samples.  My wife contacted several of TJ's referrals and all gave wonderful feedback regarding his quality of work.  We checked his CCB license and all was good.  His bid was the lowest, but we liked TJ and Surface Solutions the best.  We then finallized our choices and signed a contract.  TJ said it would take 5 days to complete.  He started Aug. 10th  and finished Aug. 14th.  Days prior to the start my wife and I prepared by cleaning out all cabinets and drawers and removing all doors and drawers.   It took three days to reface all cabinets and a couple days to install new drawer glides, new drawer boxes, face fronts, crown molding, install new hardware and and final touch up.  After completion, wow what a new great look.  One would not know that we just refaced our cabinets.  The cabinets all look great and so very pleased with the final results.

They did a good job. I would tell a friend that they do good work and that they are very good at communicating what they can do and what they wouldn't do. They did do the work in the amount of time that they said they would. The workers were very courteous.

The General Contractor I used recommended Soil Solutions. From my first phone call to Soil Solutions to the Technician who came out and performed the work, everyone was very friendly, professional, explained the cost and process. I would use them again and have referred them to at least 3 others.

We received 5 bids for kitchen cabinet refacing and quartz counter tops.  We selected TJ Bonney's company for the cabinet work.
TJ was very helpful with ideas and material selection.  He removed the old cabinet doors and window & pocket door casings and installed a quality 1/8 inch vaneer and cabinet doors that are manufactured in Salem, Oregon.  We were able to visit the manufacturer to get larger samples before making the final color selection.  The door and window casings were made to match the color of the cabinets.  We selected the cabinet hardware and he installed the pulls, hinges and soft close mechanisms.  He built new drawers and pullouts and they work great and have the soft close feature.
TJ is very concientious about the workmanship and is a good communicator.  As with any contractor, I recommend working closely to ensure that the small details are done to your liking.  He was very willing to make minor adjustments and the overall quality of the job is fantastic.  I highly recommend TJ and his company and would definitely use him again.

T.J. was very professional and listened to what I wanted.   Every detail was completed to my satisfaction.  His workmanship is excellent.   He attended to the smallest detail. For instance my new stove never quite fit into its space.  T.J. built up the countertop in order to correct the problem. He took pride in satisfying his customer.   I felt the price was fair with what I had done.  I would recommend this company to my friends and family.  

He replaced a small, damaged part of the countertop with a cutting board.
This was done at a rental. 
The property owner decided that she could not afford to replace the entire countertop, so a simple repair was chosen instead.
TJ was on time and professional.
He did some prep work at his shop before arriving, which saved time.
He did a great job, and his fee was less than the estimate from another company.
We felt that his fee was reasonable.
We would hire him again.

This is the 3rd time we have used this company and they are easy to work with. They make sure everything is adjusted correctly.

They were the best guys ever.  I went over to their warehouse which was near my house and they did such beautiful work.  I talked to the seller and he was so personable.  I got an estimate from them a few days later.  I had got an estimate for $4,000 and these folks offered me $2,000.  I had to have a plumber come in and they brought a plumber out with them.  They said the plumber may not come when I wanted him to but they said I won’t have to worry about it.  They had hand-cut and put my counter-tops together which made them so heavy, so that I would not have any cuts.  They cut everything out and backed it in their warehouse and brought it out and installed it.  They were here only for four hours.  They cleaned up the saw dust and everything after they finished and I had my new kitchen counter-top.  I was thrilled with them because they saved me money.  They were the greatest.  They did not even charge me for the plumbing work.

We had a very good experience with everyone involved - salesman, counter top artisan, carpenter, and owner.  Everyone one was very patient with my difficulties making up my mind about what I wanted.  Once the decisions were made they scheduled the building and installation quite soon and they were very well organized.  The quality of the work and the materials was excellent and we were very happy with the result.  There was only one miscommunication about drawer size and the location of a cabinet partition.  We would definitely recommend them to anyone needing this kind of work.

I hadn't planned to have custom made cabinets, but I am very glad I did and I felt that their price was good for the quality of wood and construction.  They would have included a free standard size stainless steel or acrylic sink if I had wanted it.

He did extra things for us, like the backsplash.  He made the seams disappear.  He also put in a bathroom counter.  Our kitchen has three corners on it, I hate seams, and thought I was going to have to go with Corain to get it seamless, but he was able to find an extra large piece of the material so that my countertop is seamless.  It is wonderful!  They arranged to have the plumber here to reconnect the plumbing after the installation.  They were so nice to work with and the lowest bid we had!  They were only in the house for about three hours.  They provided excellent advice as well.  This was the best experience I have had with a company!

Overall they started on time and had one guy working on the cabinets and he took about  a week.  Everything went pretty smoothly except for 2 things.  The first was the wrong door was received for the front of the garbage drawer front and the spice rack.  Otherwise, the work proceeded well and at good speed.  I had them come back about 6 months later to make a small adjustment to the garbage pullout.  They were very quick and prompt.  The only majoro problem was with the sub contractor for the installation of the Granit Counter tops.  They had to redo the island as they cut the piece incorrectly the first time.  However, the owner of the granit place came out and supervised the installation the next time and they did a nice job. Really like dealing with them and they were very responsive to our requests.  I would definately recommend them. 

The transformation was really amazing; I was very impressed.  It was a real pleasure to work with this company beginning with David who came out to give a bid and whom I worked with to choose the style and wood.  The installation process was impeccable thanks to Greg who really knew what he was doing, in additon to being a really nice guy.  Everything went really smoothly and I was really impressed with  not only the overall quality, but the outcome.  It was like walking into a new kitchen.  I would definitely recommend them again.

By far the easiest company to work with. Checked with many companies, they always had a problem with this or that.  Marks answer was always yes! The thing is, they have the experience. For different type projects I would not trust anyone else. They are  so very accomodating, I have been talking to them for months about this project.  They set aside 3 days for the work. I dropped off the RV, and I picked it up and was amazed. The detail is incredible. They reinforced tops for no extra charge. It looks like a condo in there now. They took care to protect wallpaper, floors, and cabinets.

They did a great job. They put in a new sink, hinges on the cabinets, and repaired four cabinets, too. They were reasonably priced and I will continue to use their services in future.

It took them a while to get here, but once they were here they did a nice job. I wasn?t around during the day when they were here. Their pricing and quality of work was very good. We had a whole lot of things done at one time. They did a good job overall.

From their friendly demeanor at the Building and Remodeling Show, to their patience with our one million questions, to their understanding as we shopped many other companies for price and product comparisons, to their promptness in keeping to the promised schedule, to the wonderful finished product, to their leaving the workspace clean, and finally to their willingness to perform one extra kindness (they polished a piece of leftover counter material for use as a hotpad), the people at Surface Solutions were easy to work with, professional, and pleasant. We love our new counters, and we highly recommend the company. Our only complaint is that their generic company name is hard to remember!

They were able to start within a few days. We were informed there would be a few down days while the drawers were being made. They kept to the schedule and were in and out in a week. We found the workman who was assigned our job to be extremely detail oriented and over all did a fantastic job. Mark, the owner, took my request for a removable frame for the microwave opening, and designed a hinged frame at no additional cost for us. We are delighted with it and entire refacing experience.
