This review is well overdue but I'm happy to finally write it to let everyone know how talented and respectful rick and his crew are. I'm looking forward to the next project with him (resurface my old brick fireplace). Rick did our kitchen counters and they're freakin beautiful. Tough as nails too cause I got kids. He also painted all the cabinets which look awesome. Like a whole new kitchen. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to all my friends - which I have! Till next time. read more

Its been about a month since we had Rick do countertops in our kitchen and two bathrooms. We love them. After getting three estimates from the usual granite and quartz countertop companies, we set up an appointment to visit Rick in his showroom- almost as an afterthought. But my wife fell in love with the unique look of Rick's work, and he answered every question she had, including whether these can be repaired if something bad happens (they can be). We were aware of Rick from a Press Democrat Article from two years ago. He is a pleasure to work with, showed up on time, and did everything he said he would do. If you want new countertops that look just like those of all your neighbors, then go the granite route. But if you want something unique, that has the heavy look of stone, and will save you a few grand, then give Rick a call. Steve Smith in Petaluma read more

WOW! What an amazing difference in my kitchen! I wanted concrete and had a difficult time finding anyone willing to tackle the project. I happened on Designs by Rick and am THRILLED! His professionalism and team were outstanding, on time and fulfilled all promises. My budget was limited and he was able to give me exactally what I wanted - and that was NOT granite like everyone else. I had a wonderful experience with what could have been very stressful and time consuming. My 1957 kitchen looks like the new ones in model homes now and the kicker was he was able to go right over my existing tile, no demo work at all. Needless to say I am very happy and you will be too.

Rick and Jenn were both professional and great to work with! Our countertops look AMAZING! We had a standard white tile in our kitchen and once the neutral/tan concrete was installed, our kitchen went from boring to chic! It has made such a big difference in our kitchen. Thank you Rick for a great project! read more

We hired Ricky to do our countertops, and we are so happy we did! He is extremely professional and easy to work with. He was great about communicating with my contractors what needed to be done to prepare the countertops for his concrete work, and would also have been able to have someone do that if my contractors couldn't. A bonus is that the materials and process are very environmentally friendly, and we got a beautiful, modern, designer look at a fraction of what we would have paid for new counters. read more

Wow, I had painted over my oak cabinets on our wet bar and it looked awful. I had Rick come in and he painted and glazed the cabinets and they look like I bought new expensive cabinetry. I love them! read more

Rick did a tremendous job covering our granite countertops with his concrete overlay. He came out to inspect the job beforehand. Then we went into his shop to select the color we wanted and brought home samples to see on site. He and his team were very clean, professional, and meticulous. We were very pleased with his work. read more

I was interested in Concrete overlay counter tops. I found Rick on line and he had good reviews. I called him, he called back the same day. Set up an appoint for bid 4 days later, he showed up on time. Invited me to come to his shop and look at different options. I liked what I saw and scheduled the job. The price was reasonable, he was in and out in 3 days and did an excellent job. I would highly recommend Rick and his crew if you are interested in unique and durable counter tops. read more

Rick did a wonderful job re doing my failed concrete counter tops! My old counter tops were peeling and chipping. He was able to go over the counter tops and up to my back splash, around my already in place sink and make it look like it was the original job! Great job and he even came back and fixed some places that needed sanding with a big smile on his face! He was easy to communicate with by email, text and his wife who also answered my calls and questions. My kitchen looks like a million dollar kitchen again! read more

Rick and the guys covered our old corian kitchen countertops and painted our cabinets. Looks great and we get tons of compliments. I showed him some samples of the look I was going for and he matched it. Recommend highly. read more

Love, love, love my new counter tops by Rick. He is the guy if you want amazing counter tops with impeccable results. Rick is professional, knowledgeable, answered all our questions and very patient. You have to check out the show room, so many different colors and patterns to choose from, we took a long time to decide what color. Concrete counter tops is the way to go if you want cost effective high end counter tops. Thank you Rick! read more

Rick did a very poor job of painting our kitchen cabinets. Rick was arrogant, defensive, and unwilling to fix the errors he created i.e. paint did not cover cabinet surface, paint chipped in one week, cabinet handles did not align, and cabinet handles were not tightened securely. Job was done in 2012, got our money refunded in 2013, and hired a real professional painter to redo the job in 2014. Looks beautiful today!! read more

We contracted with Designs by Rick, Santa Rosa, CA, to re-finish our kitchen counter tops and backspash in a custom concrete-epoxy finish. The firm was cited in the Press Democrat. They should re-name the company Disaster by Rick. He does not like visiting the job site so he asks you to pick-up samples and drop off by the tree in front of his workshop. He only saw the jobsite once before beginning the project. He works with a plumbing contractor to remove and install the sink. Rick's work was shoddy and inconsistent. The backsplashes looked as if they were finger painted and were in different designs and color. When we commented, he said they were still wet and would dry differently. We paid his bill but the next day after drying, the backsplashes remained different and amateurish. Our painter and contractor agreed. We called him to ask him to come back to look at his work. He refused! Our painter tried to explain but Rick was rude and insulting to him. We tried to appeal to his professional integrity - his response: "You paid me and now I'm done. " The next day his plumbing contractor came by to pick up his tools. He told our painter: "This really is poor quality - I'm surprised he did this. Rick told me not to even come back here to finish installing the sink." We then had to replace his "work" with a tile backsplash at much added expense. We've kept the old boards and photos for anyone who wants to see them. Several of our neighbors who had once expressed interest in using him saw the work and wisely lost his contact info. The contract we signed was written in lay legalize by his wife. It does not contain a performance clause. Beware!! You'll need one if you contract with Designs by Rick. His lack of professionalism, quality and an atrocious, immature attitude except when he's selling you is why we rate him a "1." read more

Amazing excellent job by this company. We completely redid our kitchen counters (which were green granite) to matte dark grey and they are fantastic. This method is also very affordable- can't recommend more highly! read more

My husband and I hired Rick to resurface our old tired tile countertops.We couldn't have been more happy with his work.It is like looking at a piece of artwork evertime we come into the kitchen.He and his crew are very professional and always showed up on time.He was extremely pleasant to work with and we would recommend him to anyone. read more

We had the greatest experience with Rick and his team. They absolutely transformed our concrete counters. We had stains and damage to our counters and he came in and showed us examples of what we could achieve with the same surface - just creating a new layer with a new finish and design. We are so happy with the end result. He was easy to work with, showed up as agreed, was fair on the pricing. He is a true artist and knows his business. I highly recommend Designs by Rick for those building a new kitchen or a re-model. His showroom gave us helpful ideas that ultimately helped us choose the colors and design for our kitchen. We spend a ton of time in this room - and I am grateful everyday that we used Rick for our re-model. You will not be disappointed! Forget granite - his designs are much more beautiful! read more

We contracted with Rick to do some countertops for a house we had in Fairfield, CA that we were getting ready for sale. We could have done granite but his sample designs looked better than what you can attain with granite. The countertops ended up taking him a couple of days longer because the epoxy layer, which is the last step, wasn't cooperating. He came back, without my prompting him, to correct the situation. After all was said and done, they looked great and everyone from real estate agents, potential buyers, and other people we had working on the house, had nothing but good things to say about the countertops. They ended up being one of the main selling points for the house. read more

We contracted with Designs by Rick to change a butcher block table into a French country distressed table. Could not have gotten better service. Excelled customer service. Took several visits to get it where we wanted it and Rick could not have been any nicer. We are delighted with the final result. We plan on using him again for another piece of furniture. read more

Terrible work and a terrible attitude. Rick did an awful job painting my cabinets. I went back-and-forth with him trying to get them done correctly and they never were. I gave up. His attitude was that he gave me a good deal on the job. I guess that means you get what you pay for! Not worth the added expense of having to hire someone else to fix Rick's poor-quality work. read more

Rick helped rescue us from our golden oak with heavy tiger stripe grain cabinets! He sanded and filled them and then transformed them into custom appearing by a oyster paint and amber glaze which he masterfully distressed to give such charm. He also designed a mantle for us including distressed wood mantle with hinges and concrete to replace tile. When rick was working, it was the first time over 1 month renovation that I did not worry! He is professional and deli able! read more

We had the good fortune of learning about Rick via YELP. When we contacted him, we didn't have much hope that our stained, cratered concrete countertops could be revived. How wrong we were! Rick did a beautiful job from start to finish. He transformed a kitchen and two bathrooms, perfectly matching the color chips we gave him. He and his wife, Jenn, run a well-organized business, giving quick estimates, meeting at the shop to show samples and discuss possibilities, and promptly returning phone calls and emails. Having Rick and his assistant working in our home was comfortable and low-key, and they did a great job of cleaning up before they left. Home improvement projects can be challenging, but working with Designs By Rick is as good as it gets. read more
