Custom Kitchen Cabinets Services in Alameda, CA

“As an architect, I am thrilled whenever I get the opportunity to work with Mike Dickinson and Dickinson Cabinetry. From his ability to listen to the client, to his development of quality shop drawings of all the casework, to his craftsmanship in building some of the finest cabinets I have seen, I always know that Mike and his shop will be able to build cabinets that will not only look amazing, but will last for years and years. Dickinson also has an amazing showroom that is a real asset to my clients. I can send them to meet with Mike where he can review door styles, materials, finishes, colors and answer any questions they might have about what their new cabinets will look like. I have worked with Mike and his shop on a half dozen projects ranging from full kitchens to small bathroom vanities and I look forward to continuing to work with him on projects to come.”

“Laura has supplied the cabinets on some of our most successful projects, including my personal residence in San Francisco. Since Laura represents several different cabinet fabricators, she has the ability to accommodate virtually any stylistic, design, and budgetary requirement. She is a second generation kitchen designer, and virtually her entire family (including her contractor husband Mike) is in the residential remodeling business. Laura understands the importance of client service, and shares my own philosophy of building a business through an ever-growing base of satisfied clients. On my own home, Laura not only provided the cabinets, but improved upon my original layout, suggesting changes that enhanced the functionality of the kitchen and the overall look and feel. A critical detail where I wanted a panel-ready fridge to integrate with a pantry cabinet and a filler piece to hide a plumbing chase came together effortlessly with minimal heartache on my part. I have seen even custom cabinet shops struggle mightily to accomplish a similar result on my other projects where Laura was not involved. Laura personally supervises the delivery of all of her orders, and stands behind any factory mistakes or damage incurred by shipping. On my own house, she made multiple site visits to oversee installation and made sure the results came out as intended. Highest marks for Laura Moloney and Kitchens Galore; I look forward to collaborating with Laura on many projects in the years to come!”

“I have provided tile for two of Elyse's recent kitchen design projects. Elyse provides her clients with a wealth of design knowledge and endless creativity. Coming from the perspective of a vender I'm appreciative of her professionalism. I always look forward to the opportunity to collaborate with Elyse and her clients.”

“The Klein Design Group designed the cabinetry for our entertainment center/bookcase wall unit in our den and our kitchen cabinetry. Jonathan Kleid listened carefully as we outlined what we knew we needed and made very apt suggestions about possibilities that we had not initially recognized. The elegant, uncluttered designs in both rooms have stood the test of time. In the kitchen and den his choices of internal hardware and fittings for specialized drawers and cabinets have worked smoothly and have operated flawlessly for more than fifteen years. His collaboration with Swift Finishing gave us cabinetry whose paint finishing was perfect and silky smooth to the touch. Jonathan was very responsive to our initial request to meet, enthusiastic about our projects, and a joy to work with throughout. He has followed up periodically to make sure that we knew help was available if any issues arise.”

“I enjoy working with them on our new kitchen, they are very professional and understand our needs. I highly recommend them.”

“I was as satisfied as can be with my new kitchen. Betty helped me with my design and helped me pick out tile and my mural. The workers were there early every day and cleaned up at the end of the day. it took the amount of time they said it would. it was a really easeful renovation, with Betty showing me a countertop and cabinets and I loved it all. I can't say enough good things about this company.”

“Diablo Valley Cabinetry provided one of the best remodel experiences that we have had. Not only with the outcome the most beautiful product that we could have asked for, but the process was smooth as well. They were very involved with every detail and the owner actually came to our house on many occasions to oversee everything! I have never experienced that kind of service from another company. They are professional in every aspect of their dealings and they truly provide top of the line product. I will absolutely use them again for future projects and highly recommend them for both projects big and small. Thank you for actually making the process of a remodel pleasant!”

“As in Interior Designer, I have collaborated with Steve on several kitchen and bath projects in Alamo, Lafayette & Walnut Creek, California. Regardless of the scope, cabinet upgrades or a kitchen redesign, he is professional and mindful of the client's goal as well as their budget. Steve gives a considerable amount of attention to detail in his layouts: counter & storage space, island design, lighting, ventilation systems and recycling needs. I find him a true joy to work with and would recommend him for any project. He is on my "short list" of kitchen and bath designers. - Carol”

“Chris did an amazing job of customizing our beloved 1950's built-in cabinet with a modern tv lift system. We gave him the difficult task of cramming the biggest tv we could find into a tiny, narrow cabinet. Then he encased the tv with a beautiful frame, which perfectly matches the original wood of the cabinet. He also updated the vintage speaker grill and thoughtfully repaired broken hinges. It was a very difficult project that required someone with strong technical skills, talent, and good taste. Chris is fast and affordable for the quality of work he produces. We will definitely be using Chris again for our kitchen and bathroom remodels, as well as some custom furniture pieces.”
