The guys from Charles Cabinets are awesome! We scheduled a…read morevisit and consultation at our house for a update on our kitchen that had a outdated 90's computer area along a wall. We first met up with Tom ( the company President and designer), He measured the area, sketched up some drawings and we all discussed what we thought would be fun, great looking and functional. A few days later, he emailed us blueprints and we met again with another designer, craftsmen. We changed our ideas a few times more before coming up with what we decided on. We scheduled a build and they were very good about keeping to their installation date. A well experienced carpenter showed up and within one day had it all installed. The next day the countertop crew came out to measure and laser scan for the corian countertop. A week later that was installed - perfectly.... We had the black subway tiles installed and had a family gathering to show off our "New Wine Bar". It was a huge hit, everyone loved it. What a improvement to our new home. I would totally recommend Charles Cabinets to anyone who wants perfection.

Pat at Charles Cabinets was amazing to work with. From inception to completion, Charles Cabinets…read morewas there for us. They were professional, they cared about us, they were genuinely interested in how we were going to use the space and what would be best for us, they listened, and they made suggestions. In the end, we have the most amazing kitchen I could ever dream of. It is absolutely beautiful. The craftsmanship is A+++++. The kitchen was installed a month ago, and I still marvel at it daily. I don't think I'll ever get tired of it! Their attentiveness to detail is over the top. The cabinets are made perfectly. Every joint is perfect, the stain color is gorgeous, the grain of the wood is amazing. The grain flows from one front of a drawer to the next front of a drawer. It's one big piece of wood! I am super anal and a perfectionist. They are too! I can't say enough good things about Pat and the whole crew there. Knowing what I know now about Charles Cabinets, if they were booked up with work such that I had to wait a year to have them make my cabinets, I would. It would be so worth the wait. If you are at all wondering who you should hire to design and build your cabinets, wonder no more...Choose Charles Cabinets and you won't be disappointed. I would hire Charles Cabinets again in a heart beat... In fact, I'm going to. To make a vanity for the bathroom!

I want to fully recommend Ryan Remodels as your contractor! We met him at the home and garden show…read morein 2023 looking to finally fully finish the basement of our home after we outgrow the single floor we were on. After my husband did a little looking around, we asked him to come out for an estimate. He showed up and was fantastic even at the estimate. I had sketched out my basement project before he arrived. He looked at it and not only did he not just walk out saying no thanks. HE IMPROVED MY PLAN. He gave us ideas that made it aesthetically more pleasing and far more functional. He was so easy to work with. He utilizes this fantastic app so even as the city delayed our project, we knew who would be in our house when and why. He was communicative through messages. His sub-contractors were polite, friendly, and did good work. When he was done our home now works for all of us with spaces for everyone to have their own space. He made sure that we are as happy as can be and we are so thrilled and grateful for him.

OMG- My life would have been a lot simpler if I had found Steve P (the owner) before I started my…read moreproject...a complete renovation of my townhouse, main bathroom. I really had no idea what this "simple" bathroom entailed and it was definitely bigger and more complicated than I originally thought. I started by picking out tiles and that was the fun part! When my contractor started asking me questions, for example; "How high do you want the counter? What kind of light fixtures do you want and how do you want them placed? What is your wood choice for cabinetry and what color stain would you like? Where do you want the faucet placed for the bathtub? I soon realized I needed HELP. I was way over my head. I found Imagine That through another friend/client and the time spent with Steve was so worth it. He was absolutely helpful and immediately understood the type of look I wanted to create. He had so many great ideas and balanced those with my budget in mind. He has unlimited resources available to him in order to search out products and designs. I will not attempt to do any additional updates to my house before spending time with Steve. I will want him involved from the beginning to the end of the project in order to make life simple, not have any mistakes and see the amazing results.

Kristiaan is, hands down, the best contractor you will find in the Twin Cities. My husband was…read morecatastrophically injured in an accident and we were told we need to move somewhere that can accommodate his wheelchair and other disability needs. Very expensive. When we reached out to Kristiaan to ask if he could help us remodel our kitchen, he not only agreed to give us a quote without charge, he also came to our house and taped out the entire design on the floor, no charge. None of the other contractors were willing to put in that kind of time and effort without a guarantee that they would get the job. Kristiaan not only worked with the IKEA plans we had designed, but he further figured out the engineering required to support the large, open span that we had to have suspended over my husband's wheelchair. Everything you see in the photos is brand new and done by Kristiaan. What you don't see is that, on the other side where we already had IKEA cabinets, he moved the entire cabinet run over and built a stabilized support for our new kitchen sink. He also worked with the countertop installers to get us the cutouts that we needed, and recommended the best outlet/lighting system for us. And when IKEA dropped the ball and failed to deliver the promised toekicks, Kristiaan developed a workaround and personally went to IKEA to pick them up for us. A good friend of mine who is a luxury home builder in the Twin Cities said that Kristiaan basically fulfilled the idea of "aging in place" that is extremely popular now. Instead of moving to a "senior" type development, hire Kristiaan instead to make over your current home into your dream home. Disability, aging, or other circumstances don't necessarily mean you have to leave the home you love. Thank you, Kristiaan, for your impeccable work and your incredible decency.

Kristiaan was very responsive via email and a huge help in the design process given his knowledge of Ikea's products - we felt very prepared placing our order whereas others in the showroom seemed lost. This is a more cost effective way to remodel, but is not the same as using a general contractor i.e. you have to manage timing in your project for electrical, plumbing, counters, paint. Our installation was timely, professional, and they kept a clean workspace. Great company!
