    TLDR: Don't waste your time, because you will get mistakes (and now gaslighting) and be ghosted. **UPDATE IN RESPONSE TO THE BUSINESS' REPLY: First, this job was from 2024, not 2021. I have posted the entire text chain and an image of an email clearly showing this. The date you're referring to says "Oct 21" as in Oct 21, 2024. Not 2021. It's very telling that you don't even remember a job from only a year ago that was over a week long. You couldn't even be bothered to look up the old invoice to see when this job was? Second of all, the messages in the text photos saying "following up on this" and "following up again" are from ME, not you. That was ME following up with YOU after I said I wanted to go ahead with the repair, and you not answering. So your statement that you have not heard from me is patently untrue. That was ME who hadn't heard from YOU. The text chain clearly shows this. Third, the damage was caused by a complete lack of caulk on the cabinet, not "debris in constant contact." There is no "standing water" and no debris in "constant contact." You're making that up, it simply is not the case. The other side is caulked and is still fine, as I pointed out in my texts. I am aware that paint and caulk can only do so much - but guess what? It can do nothing if you don't actually do it in the first place. I am aware of how wood reacts with water (and it's not wood, because you use mdf, which is far worse). The fact remains that the area was not caulked AT ALL and also that I followed up with you multiple times and received no answer. Do not gaslight me by acting like you "never heard back." I clearly stated that I wanted you to do the repairs and you never got back to me. It's all right there in the texts. **ORIGINAL REVIEW** Sadly, I have to echo the other reviews on here about the owner ghosting people. I hired OC Kitchen Designs to reface our kitchen cabinets. They weren't the cheapest but they had good reviews. We experienced problems from the beginning. The job was quoted as going to take 3 days - it took more than a week. The painter took far longer than the 1 day it was supposed to take. He brought his whole family on a Saturday and had his wife and young kids helping - the young kids did not do a great job (they aren't pros and should not have been there). He should have come by himself. I found VERY obvious drips and runs on the main cabinet that gets used the most, right at eye level. Glenn said he would fix it. I asked him if he would spray it so it would look even with the rest and he said yes. When he came, he simply brushed over it, leaving very obvious brush marks and color difference. I could have done that myself!! There were so many issues, in fact, that Glenn ended up giving me $250 off, which was the price of the custom wine rack he put in, "because of all the problems." So I will give him credit for that. But... A while later we discovered that the painter had not caulked a major area right next to the stove. A whole corner hadn't been caulked at all, so moisture and liquid had gotten under it and it started to swell. Since he uses mdf and not actual wood, the swelling was pretty severe. I texted Glenn about it and he tried to indicate that it wasn't his fault because "there was probably caulk there, but it's a kitchen and we aren't responsible for water damage." I build furniture and have a woodworking shop and CNC machine. I know what I'm talking about. I've done major repairs to my home. I hired OC Kitchen Designs because I have two young kids and no time, not because I'm an idiot. I know when something has been caulked and when it hasn't. I told him if he came to see it he would clearly see that his painter screwed this up and didn't caulk it (and I have photos and videos). He said he could fix it for $200. I wasn't happy since I believe you should stand by your work, but I agreed to it. He said he could probably come out the next week, he just had to check on this other job (in line with the excuses he's given other people according to these reviews). I texted to follow up several times and no response. He ghosted me rather than come fix his company's mistake. He's a nice enough guy I guess, but I think he's overscheduled. In any event the ghosting is crazy unprofessional. Now I have to hire somebody else to come fix it.

    This is my second time using OC Kitchen Designs to reface kitchen cabinets. Always responsive, great customer service, good communication, and quality work at a great price. The pictures speak for themselves. Highly recommend.

    Bathroom vanities were original oak.

    We hired Glen to give our cabinets a fresh new look. He was always on time, gave us answers to every question and the whole projects only took 4 days. We love the result and highly recommend this company. The cost was reasonable and there were no surprises. Glen and his crew handled everything.

    A friend of mine recommended Glenn and OC kitchen design. Glenn is very knowledgeable, serious, flexible and extremely talented. He transformed our kitchen with resurfacing the cabinets and build some custom cabinets and our island. Glenn also recommended a counter person who was great, efficient and well priced. My kitchen looks bright and brand new. I highly recommend oc kitchen design which was also very well priced for the great quality of work they offer.

    Glenn refaced our entire kitchen cabinets. He was fantastic from start to finish. His quote was very reasonable, and he was very transparent, and communicative about the job. He went above and beyond, suggesting improvements that we hadn't considered. His workmanship was flawless and he finished on scedual. Our new cabinets make our house look like a brand new home. I highly recommend Glenn and OC Kitchen Designs.

    We just completed our kitchen refacing with Glenn and his crew. In short they did a phenomenal job! In more detail they were nearly perfectionists in lining up the cabinets, ensuring everything was exactly as we envisioned it. I really want to highlight a few things about the experience that I feel are important when selecting a cabinet refacing company. Typically when we start a project, we are given a timeline and I always.... always overestimate that timeline as they never come true. With Glenn, he is the first contractor I have worked with in our house that actually followed through on commitments and got our kitchen done from signature to completion in less than 6 weeks (not 6 weeks of install! But 6 weeks all in from ordering materials to completion). The process begins at signature and we selected our cabinet design. We didn't want the cracks that occur between the edges of the center panel and the outer panels of a shaker cabinet. To remedy this Glenn recommended a routed MDF door which shaved some $ off as well as looks amazing now that they are up. Don't be afraid of MDF, it feels heavier than the real wood product and it's durable. Also you can get the MDF doors painted ANY color you want if you go this route, in lieu of thermafoil. From there we waited... Glenn got us scheduled once the doors were back from the finisher and the process began. It was a total of 7 business days to complete the project and our kitchen is large. Everything is now slow close and looks awesome. If you are looking for a project done well and on time then don't hesitate to contact Glenn for a very reasonable quote

    Eduardo and Ruben were fantastic cabinet installers! They made sure that everything was completed…read moreto my satisfaction. Eduardo made sure that the kitchen was cleaned up at the end of each day. The install of my cabinets was done fast and professionally! Highly recommend Mr. Cabinet Care for your kitchen remodel or upgrade!

    I am currently in the process of doing a full kitchen renovation with Mr. Cabinet Care and I am…read morevery happy with my experience. I will give another update once the project is complete, estimated in 6 weeks. I initially requested in home estimates from couple of different contractors through Yelp for a project I thought would be less than $10k. One of the other companies with positive reviews straight out rejected me because they said the project would be more than $10k. Mr. Cabinet Care, on the other hand, was friendly and professional despite of my quote expectation project price less than $10k. Mr. Cabinet Care showed up on time, carefully measured my kitchen, and took the time to explain everything thoroughly before giving me an estimate of around $45k. What impressed me the most was how prepared and transparent they were from the very beginning. Even though my original budget expectation was less than $10k, they never dismissed me or made me feel like I wasn't worth their time like the other company. Instead, Mr. Cabinet Care came with a well-organized folder containing the company's history, license information, areas of expertise, and references from previous clients who could be contacted for verification. Everything was explained in a way that I could understand, and he took time to build trust and rapport with me, I felt comfortable and confident to put the deposit to move forward with the renovation. After the first initial deposit, the second deposit due on the day of the surveyor came and remeasured and confirmed the project. That was the big deposit around mid $20k. Then after that, the third deposit due on the first demolition day $14k. I think the rest will be once its all done. I'll keep Yelp updated. On the first week of demo, Alfredo and Ruben came and removed everything. It was awesome. First day and all the all cabinets and drawers already out of the way. They worked so fast, efficient and clean. They covered the floor with tape, post the project's map and plan on the wall, and very respectful of my home. Third day of demo, all the wall had been patched and ready for the next step, the second week. Second week, the lead installer, David came and introduced himself. He worked so hard from 7 am till 3 pm. The field supervisor also came to introduce himself, Fausto. They were so professional and worked efficiently. At the end of the day, David would left my kitchen clean, all the debris were vacummed, and all of his tools and equipment were neatly placed on the table for the next day. Okay, this is where I stop, because I have to wait for at least 7 days for the company to make the custom made granite top. And I will update my review once the project is done. Another thing that I appreciated, all the staff came in the company's Tshirts, in the company's car/ truck. omg even their working truck was neat inside. Anyway, it was just neat, I appreciate that. On the first week of demo, when I had a misunderstanding with what they were going to do, I called the office, and Christin, project coordinator was so helpful and patience in updating and explaining to me what happened. Yeah, best customer service.
