Joinery & Cabinet Makers in Georgetown, CT

“My wife and I hired Kling Brothers Builders/Keith Kling to build an addition onto the back of our house, which included a new kitchen, family room, patio, mudroom, and other modifications to the interior. From the start, I was very impressed with Keith’s preparedness and diligence. He created a very detailed and transparent budget (approximately 10 pages), which outlined each item to be done and the price. More importantly, his estimate was accurate, and the prices that we agreed to did not change throughout the project. Keith is also very hands-on. He was on-site every day during the project. He is extremely responsive by email and phone, and if I emailed him a question while I was at work, within a very short period of time, I would receive a response. He was also available on weekends to meet with me, which was more convenient for my schedule. The workmanship of Kling Brothers Builders is top notch. Their on-staff carpenters are excellent, and their subcontractors are all superb. I did not have any issues with shoddy work or questionable characters walking around my property or in my house. Keith is very diligent about the “structure” and integrity of the building, and takes pride in how well built and solid the “bones” of the project are. Although I am not a builder myself, you can just tell that something is well put together by looking at it. Keith stresses quality and perfection, and was not satisfied until we were satisfied. He has access to some of the best craftsmen in the area, and in particular he introduced us to a custom cabinet maker who created a showcase kitchen for us. His other subs, such as the electrician, the plumber, etc., were all personable and flexible. All in all, we were very impressed and happy with Keith Kling. Although my wife and I are reasonable, we also have very high standards. Given the size of our project (to us), we expected top service and attention. Keith came through with flying colors, and he was very friendly, personable, and professional throughout. I have no tolerance for service providers who do not do what they say or make you feel as though you are doing them a favor by giving them your money. Keith is certainly not one of those people. Our project came in on budget, and any additional work that I wanted done was communicated and agreed-to up front. There were no surprises and the communication between Keith and us could not have been better. I give Kling Brothers Builders/Keith Kling my highest recommendation. I hope to use them again on a future project.”

“Can't speak highly enough of Eric at Paradigm. I'd been trying for months to identify a solution for enclosing our open bookshelves with cabinet doors. I even attempted to do it myself with IKEA doors and hinges off Amazon - not recommended. Finally found Eric through an Instagram hashtag and he worked some magic: came to meet us, measure the space, and take an existing door for color matching purposes; made the doors; and came to install them - over the span of ONE WEEK. He saved me additional months of headache trying to sort this out, and we were finally able to baby-proof the entire second floor of our home. Would recommend Eric a million times over, and are now looking for additional projects around the house just to have him be the one to complete them.”

“JWH went beyond our expectations with our home expansion. They did an amazing job. The transformation of our home has made us feel like we are living in a dream. Never did we imagine that this project would go so smoothly, and be so stress-free. I would highly recommend them to all for any project.”

“I have had the pleasure to deal with Greg Ackley and his son on numerous jobs in the past seven years. They truly are professional craftsmen in their field. When it comes to cabinet refacing his system is not even close to what other companies are offering out there. I highly recommend Ackley Cabinet because quality and the personal customer service is second to none.”

“Zee is not only a colleague, but a friend, who has helped us grow our own business in the kitchen and bath industry - through his experience, support and thorough knowledge of cabinetry products. I highly recommend Zee and Manhattan Cabinets for all of your kitchen and bathroom needs.”

“Working with the designers from Artista Kitchen and Bath was pure pleasure. They handled every detail from the beginning, with compassion and skill. Mike and his team ran the project smoothly, on track throughout the entire process. Their design suggestions, even steering us in directions we were reluctant to try, turned out beautifully. Any minor flaw was addressed immediately and corrected without question. I have my dream kitchen thanks to the Artista team!”

“We are thrilled with the work done by nd Gothic Furniture. So much so we remodeled one room when our daughter was 3 and did so again as she got older and her needs were different. Our first set of built-ins made it possible for us to have desperately needed storage and closet space, a desk, television closet and a single bed with a trundle underneath for our then 3 year old. As she got older, and we no longer needed room for toys, we remodeled the same room and our bedroom. The design was perfect for a late teenager (lots of storage still) with a larger desk, more floor room and a bed with storage. We also remodeled our own bedroom at that time and were concerned that they would make the room look smaller. We assured the room would look larger and, in fact, it does. Plus we have storage space and a design that looks first class.”

“Ok, I know, when you see five stars you figure friends and family. Well I'm not. I'm just a very satisfied customer. How satisfied you might ask? Satisfied enough to drag David and his team at NY Woodwork to my next home, which will be a full brownstone restoration project! For my current home which I have just sold. David and his team helped me design, build and install custom cabinetry that helped to identify separate use areas, create massive amounts of storage and to be honest, became part of my apartment's aesthetic. During my open houses, I kept hearing about how beautiful the job was. David had someone on staff that helped me with the drawings, and I was able to visit his shop, review several choices of wood and finish as well as hardware for knobs and pulls. David's team works fast, can accommodate any customization you can dream of (and I did having him score each door to create a shaker look) and it seemed I had my cabinets in no time. The biggest difference is in the installation. Having great cabinets that are installed badly is a waste of money. My apartment did not have one level floor or ceiling, nor one plumb wall - so installing was a major feat - which David and his team passed with flying colors. David stands by his work. I had a small problem with some little paint cracks on a couple of doors, due to the climatization in my apartment. David whisked them off to his shop and had them back to me in a couple of days. I would heartily and readily recommend David and the team at NY Woodwork to anyone. Except don't call him next February, he will be busy with my job!”

“Hub built an amazing bookcase in our apartment. It's about 25 feet long, and he was WONDERFUL to work with. He has an excellent taste level and can offer options and solutions that fit the aesthetic you are looking for. We still love it and get many compliments on it. It is the centerpiece of our living room.”

“I have hired, worked along side of and recommended Marilyn's company, Touch of Class Fine Finishing, for well over a decade now. On each and every occasion, she and her company have far exceeded each project's expectations. Her knowledge of the business, high standard of quality and overall commitment to meeting and surpassing her client's needs are unparalleled. As far as I am concerned, there is no other finishing or touch up company I will use or recommend others in my network to use on projects.”
