"I highly recommend Jennifer Lewis, who has designed our master bedroom custom closet and our living room wall unit. She is a great collaborator, highly consultative, and brought so many great ideas. We are in love with our wall unit. Because of the pandemic, there were issues getting some of the components fabricated, so there were delays and the work required three separate installation dates. Other than the delays and very spotty communication from Closet Factory regarding the delays, the project went well and the wall unit is gorgeous. Despite having to hound them for updates, I would definitely do business with them again. And I'd ask for Jennifer every time. She's fantastic."
"Promises made, promises kept. Rare to find a contractor who sets a date and keeps it on the calendar. John was super and kept the project running on-time. He took time to walk me through the process and options. Great clean up and follow through as well. It is without hesitation that I can recommend this outfit!"
"Excellent work. We purchased natural cherry cabinets in shaker style, with the panels made of solid wood rather than veneer. That is more difficult work, as each panel has to be constructed from several planks. Moreover, the clear finish would leave any flaws more visible. Simply put, the doors are beautiful--flawless in both construction and finish. They are similar in quality to custom cherry furniture we own."
"Everything went very well. Nicole (owner) and Christine came in advance to see my place and gave an estimate, and we scheduled the first few cleanings at that time. I have been putting off organizing my stored things since I moved in 6 months ago (!) and didn't even have anything put away in closets. When I first moved in I was working swing shifts and my parents were trying to sell the place, so I never wanted to invest too much time/money/energy even in unpacking boxes from the move. I wanted to play an active part during the first cleaning so I did help. I need a kick in the butt sometimes to make decisions on where to put things or whether to keep or throw things away and Christine was understanding of this but firm when she needed to be. The only problem was that a small speaker fell from a table during the cleaning process and an insignificant plastic part broke off; both offered to buy a new speaker for me but it's just a plastic part that will glue back on nicely so I refused. I only bring it up to show they handled the situation very professionally. Ultimately I do rent and it's my decision but because my parents (who are also my landlords) wanted me to be careful about using an internet service, I asked for ID which they were happy to show me. My father showed up during the process to finish a project he started the day before and was impressed and asked me to keep their contact info for another unit he needs cleaned. I marked N/A in punctuality because I repeatedly told them I was very flexible and open to any time of day, and even on any day of the week. Overall I am happy and will hire again."
"They are above your expectations, communication skills are excellent. They do the work and clean up the area, a treat to the consumer. Highly recommend them. I would rate them higher than 5 if I could."
"Mike is a great professional he was extremely fast and did an amazing job repairing my drywall and my electrical highly recommend and will definitely be reaching out to him again for future projects"
There are certainly luxury upgrades you can make but you can seriously improve the look and functionality of a closet without spending much money. Color matching will make the closet seem bigger so any shelves painted the same as the wall is a good tip. While pre-made closet organizers may seem expensive they offer an aesthetic look that's hard to achieve with DIY methods. Lastly, removing clutter and unworn items will help the closet seem bigger and cleaner.

Costs depend on material, customization level, and additional features like lighting or sliding doors.
You can budget a little less money for how to build a closet with wire shelves than with wood shelves. Some people don’t like the aesthetics that wire shelves provide, though, meaning they’ll gladly spend a little more to add wood shelves to the build. If you decide to buy pre-made wire shelves instead of building custom-sized wood shelves, you’ll be restricted in the closet shelving dimensions you can use.
The time it takes to build a closet varies widely depending on the project's size, complexity, and level of customization. On average, construction can take anywhere from a few days to two weeks.
A simple reach-in closet might be completed in less than a day, while a more complex walk-in closet could take one to two days or more. A typical project often falls in the 2-to-5-day range. However, a large, highly customized walk-in closet that requires structural changes, like moving a load-bearing wall, will take significantly longer.
A professional contractor can provide the most accurate time estimate for your specific project. If you are planning a DIY build, it is best to budget additional time.
