    Our cabinets after painting!
    Kelly Y.

    We had some pretty dreary looking cabinets and wanted to spruce up our kitchen by painting our cabinets green. Because of that we reached out to a good amount of cabinet painters in the greater Sacramento region. Essential Cabinet Painting was not only the fastest but also the most thorough in providing a clear quote of everything that needed to done including how long it would take and a clear breakdown of all the services included. After comparing, even though it was not the cheapest, we felt that Essential would give the best value and assurance that our cabinets would come out looking great. They do get booked out which is testament that other people feel the same way so allocate some time for that! We got our cabinets painted in October and we reached out in the summer time. Painting all our cabinets took around a week, only a few days were onsite and some other days were done at their site. Devin did an amazing job sealing up our kitchen and making sure that everything in our kitchen would be protected and was extremely flexible throughout the process. One of the concerns we had was whether the cabinets would be smooth since we had builder grade new cabinets that were really smooth and we were worried that paint would make them tacky. This wasn't a problem at all with Devin because our cabinets turned out amazing! We're super pleased with the results and we highly recommend Devin and his professionalism, his quality of work, overall a great guy for the job! You won't be disappointed!

    I booked them because of their incredible reviews. They were quick on a quote and great pricing. They finished the job by December 31st. It was a great way to enter the new year. However, within 2 months they had to come out multiple times to fix issues. They were professional and accommodating. However, they became frustrated when things kept going wrong and I was unhappy. As any customer would be after a project was having issues after just months. The owner then began blaming ME for the paint issues. After him and I got into an unpleasant conversation he agreed to fix it "one more time and that's it." After hanging up the phone he then blocked me. Somehow, the issues with paint chipping, within months of the job being complete, was blamed on me. Here we are, 6 months after the project, and so many cracks (see photos). They have a ton of happy customers who don't seem to have experienced what I have, so that's great! I do believe they do a great job so what's happening with my cabinets may be a fluke or maybe poor prep, I'm really not sure. However, just beware that IF there are issues they'll make you feel like it's your fault and refuse to make it right. I am not sure how I could be causing splits and cracks in the paint, that's a professional error and it sucks that the paint is doing this 6 months into the completed job. *his response below claims I made legal threats, which didn't happen. However, I could file a complaint with the BBB as well as the CSLB for failure to comply with your contract (given paint did not adhere correctly as it is splitting everywhere) but have yet to do so. I also never told you I had issues before, I told you I've had three kitchens repainted and NEVER had these kinds of issues. So again, lack of accountability and being upset with me is on you as the professional. Without saying anything else I've said, these pictures speak for themselves, they shouldn't be cracking everywhere 6mo later and that isn't a ME issue.

    What can I say about Devin and Isaiah beyond that they did such great work and amazing customer service. Cabinets paint is smooth as baby touch, that's exactly the quality my wife was looking for. The value to price ratio was great as well.

    I would definitely recommend this company to any of my friends and family! The painter (Isaiah) was great at his job, respectful (took off his shoes), and punctual. Devin, who coordinated the painting, was also super nice and easy to work with. He follows up really quick, which is rare I feel nowadays. The pricing is also the best out of all the quotes I got from the area. Will definitely pick them to do other parts in my house in the future.

    I highly recommend Essential Cabinet Painting. My cabinets are Alder and were in pretty good shape for being 17 years old with the exception of a few places in the cabinet frame where the dogs had damaged the cabinets with scratch marks and chewing. Devin and Isaiah filled and smoothed those areas out before painting. With the sanding, priming, and painting, I cannot see any grain underneath the white paint. When painting, the prep work is always the most important piece; otherwise you will have paint bleeding all over the place. Their prep work is very thorough and effective. I was quoted a three day job and they were done halfway into the third day. They were professional in all areas. I am absolutely thrilled with the way my cabinets came out! Thank you Devin and Isaiah. I love your work. The hardest part is getting on their schedule because they are so busy, but it'll be worth the wait.

    I care about customer service and the quality of work. Devin from Essential Cabinet Painting met all the criterias that I was looking for. Devin responded quickly when I first reached out to him for a quote. He gave me the best quote as a licensed business owner. Devin came with his crew on time and very detail when it came to masking my cabinets/walls prior to painting. Devin went above and beyond by asking if I need to do any wall touch up areas in the house because he has to do some minor touch up after the cabinets were done in the bathrooms/kitchen/hallway. Thanks Devin. Our cabinets turned out AMAZING and we couldn't be happier. My guests came over and kept touching the cabinets. They said the paints you used were veryyy nice. We picked Swiss Coffee for our cabinets throughout. Again, I definitely recommend you for any painting projects because you did a wonderful job. Keep up the great business.

    Devin did a fantastic job with our kitchen. So great that we are asking him to come back to do our staircases and cabinets in the rest of our house (bathroom and hallway). I've been recommending him on NextDoor. My mother-in-law is likely to hire him next. He's super courteous and professional. Covers and protects everything, cleans up every day, and was always on time, ready to work. Efficient and easy to work with. And he follows the processes he says he will follow...sand, prime, first coat, final coat. No BS. He really does want to make his customer happy and takes pride in his work. I love that he does everything over SMS. He just needed a few photos and a count of the doors and drawer. I signed a contract with him before some of the other guys even responded to my phone calls. Short side story. On the last day of the job, Devin noticed that he might have bumped into a duffel bag in the hallway, leaving a small white mark. Honestly, I wouldn't have noticed. But Devin did and he brought it to my attention. He told me to deduct $50 from his final check. That's the kind of guy you are dealing with. I thank him for his offer and duly gave him the full payment. Generosity is a 2 way street. You'll have great looking cabinets and ZERO headaches if you hire Devin.

    We are so happy with the work from Essential Cabinet painting. I had searched many options to update my oak cabinets. I am so happy that I was able to work with Devin. He was easy and quick to get a quote. He was very responsive throughout the whole process. He painted my oak cabinets white and you can't even see the grain from the oak! He painted all the cupboards/drawers in my house and I couldn't be happier! Do not hesitate to work with Essential Cabinets!

    Extremely happy with the final result of our cabinets in our kitchen! We decided to hire Devin with Essential Cabinet Painting and the entire experience was great. After 4 quotes for painting, we decided to move forward with Devin and it was the right decision! The price was very reasonable. A detailed contract was provided, Devin had excellent communication and was very prompt. Devin squeezed our project in even though he was booking one month out. His team was respectful, friendly, and really great with detail. They were flexible with our requests and gave good feedback to some questions we had during the process. So happy we chose to go with Essential Cabinet LLC and would definitely use them for future projects!

    We recently had the pleasure of working with Devin! He was knowledgeable, flexible, and a great communicator! His employee Isaiah was cheerful and respectful of our home. Their quote was reasonable, but what we appreciated most about it was how thorough it was. We would highly recommend Essential Cabinet Painting to anyone looking to have their cabinets painted!

    Devin and his crew are great. Extremely professional, respectful, punctual, and finish was top notch. We were VERY specific in what color we wanted (wouldn't budge on paint brand and paint color). Devin had never used the product before and was hesitant to do so. But he did, and the finish product came out amazing!

After the work was done I walked around my house and pointed out a few things that I wanted theme to fix and they were very accommodating and took care of the issues without question. My wife had some concerns about the underside of the the front porch being painted the same color as the walls so we were thinking of paying them more to have it repainted the trim color because it was our mistake for originally telling them to paint it the wall color. We talked to Jason about it and he offered to do it for no extra charge. After about a day my wife came to like the color it had been painted so we declined the offer. This showed me that Jason is truly more concerned with customer satisfaction more than making a few extra bucks.

Even though Jason was not able to be present at the job site, his crew did a fantastic job. A couple of exposed areas had to be painted an extra coat (no extra charge) because the stucco had never been painted before. It's rare these days to see service contractors who value quality over quantity. I do recommend Straight Edge Painting for their quality work and reasonable pricing. Besides, know that you are also supporting a veteran-owned local company.

He really pays attention to every detail and listens to you to understand what you're looking for and what you want the end result to be. He was always first and foremost, focused on the quality of work and came by almost every day just to check on progress. He knew the exact price of the job before they started work and were able to get scheduled on the calendar about a week later. The crew was extremely careful and thorough. They were always kind and accommodating and went the extra mile in so many ways. One crew member even repaired some wooden window trim that's been on my to-do list for over six months without even being asked! This is one of the rare situations where I felt like every dollar I spent was worth it. I'll be coming back for touchups after our floors are done and I'm looking forward to our house looking better than ever. If you're looking for a painter to really go the extra mile and deliver the value you're looking for I highly suggest giving Tommy a call and at least sitting down to talk about your vision for your dream home.

I showed him photos from other points of views with high def cameras on HD zoom and he still proceeds to tell me its dirt and that I basically am seeing things. Expressed to him how all i needed was a touchup considering we hired them to paint a house that was well over 2400 sqft with a warranty to which he basically said no, and would charge regular price for a power wash and touchup, but hed take good care of me. Complete used car salesman vibe completed at this point. This warranty isnt worth its weight in toilet paper at this point. Photos attached, you tell me if this looks like natural fading or paint failure. Hired another paint company to do the touchups who agreed that they could even see where their brushes were weak or where the paint didnt adhere. The support staff of this company was great in 2021 during the pandemic, super respectful and professional, but from what people have told me, those people are long gone because of owner. Not surprised.
