### Reviews

**★★★★★ — mike\_kirkendall, May 2017**

> I have nothing but good things to say about our experience of a major remodel of our kitchen and adding hardwood floors in other rooms.  Alex is meticulous and very detailed oriented. That pays off in the finished product. We are proud of our beautiful new kitchen and have received many compliments on the design and workmanship. (Even the building inspector praised the craftsmanship and planning.)  We have not hesitated to recommend Alex to our friends and neighbors. Again, good job.

**★★★★★ — milan928, Jan. 2017**

> Wonderful experience! Alex from Anew Kitchen helped us with our full kitchen remodel. He made the experience seamless. Very knowledgeable on functionality and also creative on the style. We love our kitchen and get compliments all the time. Highly recommend Anew Kitchen!!

**Comment from Anew Kitchen and Bath Design Experience:**

> Thank you for the kind words Milan. It was a pleasure working with you. We especially enjoyed the challenge set before us with your island design and layout. We hope you enjoy your kitchen for many years to come! We have attached a "during" pic.

**★★★★★ — bldunbar, June 2016**

> The work performed by Alex, his designer Rachel, and his entire team was excellent. They completed our project on schedule and within our budget. They were respectful of our privacy, cleaned up every day before leaving, worked with us on our mid-stream requested modifications, and every detail was personally overseen and inspected by Alex, the owner. The quality and workmanship of the project was top notch. It's been almost two years since completion and I continue to love my remodeled bathrooms and linen cabinets as much today as I did then. I highly recommend Anew Kitchen and Bath to anyone who is looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and high quality contractor.  You will not be disappointed with Anew Kitchen and Bath.

**Comment from Anew Kitchen and Bath Design Experience:**

> Thank you very much for the kind words. We enjoyed working with you too.

**★★★★★ — HU-788543, June 2016**

> Alex and Anew Kitchen and Bath exemplify the utmost in professionalism with attention to detail, easy to work with, adheres to timelines and budget.  Quality of work is excellent.  Customer service was great.

**★★★★★ — daddywags70, July 2014**

> Alex and his ANEW Kitchen team did an excellent remodel job.  Upgrade and cost saving options were explained and guidance was provided in helping us make those selections.  Unexpected challenges  arose after the demolition was complete, but  ANEW resolved those issues quickly without affecting the project timeline.
> I was most impressed with the ANEW teams ability to deal with the various changes I requested throughout the project.  I’m sure it’s frustrating for a contractor when a customer wants to deviate from the original plan, but ANEW made the changes and never broke stride.

**Comment from Anew Kitchen and Bath Design Experience:**

> Thank you for your kind words! We are happy to accommodate you in fulfilling your kitchen dreams, even if that means making changes along the way. It means a lot to us that through the unexpected you kept your faith in us and are satisfied with our service. Thank you for taking the time to share your experiences with us.

Thank you for mentioning the commitment we have to our clients; we are dedicated to quality and will always be around to ensure that we delivered a finished result that lasts.

**★★★★ — taribrand, July 2014**

> Anew Kitchen was key, from the design phase to completion, in remodeling our 1930s kitchen and powder bath. The demolition of lathe and plaster, flooring, three walls, the entire original kitchen and bath was first, followed by moving existing plumbing to outside wall, rewiring three rooms, insulating walls and ceiling, drywalling, painting and final lighting, flooring, cabinets, tile, counter tops and appliances.

**Comment from Anew Kitchen and Bath Design Experience:**

> Thank you for uploading these photos and sharing your experience! You were a pleasure to work with and as well as your beautiful home. We appreciate your kind words and are happy to hear that you are happy with the results.

**★★★★★ — momobley, July 2014**

> A New Kitchen basically did my whole house, not just my kitchen. I would give them the highest rating possible. They were on time, and if for some reason they were going to be even a half and hour late, they let me know. Everything they did, including floors, cabinets, bathrooms, was done professionally and perfectly. They are still my go to people if I need anything done in my home.
> Maureen Mobley

**Comment from Anew Kitchen and Bath Design Experience:**

**Comment from Anew Kitchen and Bath Design Experience:**

> Thank you Carol, it's always a pleasure working with you.

**★★★★★ — robertlange, May 2013**

> I had three bathroom partially renovated.  The decorator was extremely helpful and very pleasant to work with.  We took shopping trips which helped me decide what was best for the bathrooms.  The different workmen were always on time, very friendly and always cleaned up afterwards.  My only complaint was the painter.  He was very immature, not always on time and came unprepared.
> Alex, the main contractor came every day to check on the work and see if there were any problems.
> All in all I would recommend this company.

**Comment from Anew Kitchen and Bath Design Experience:**

> Thank you very much for the kind words. We have taken steps to assure that our sub contractor's employees understand how to act professionally. It is a great honor that you feel confident enough in our work to leave us such a kind review.

**★★★★★ — Chris Peirce, May 2013**

> I met Alex from Anew Kitchen many years ago.  He was building beautiful cabinetry in a storage unit in the middle of nowhere.  I had been referred to him by a kitchen person in Palos Verdes that was helping me design a new kitchen for my townhouse renovation in Hermosa Beach.  I met with Alex several times and was pretty sure he was the real deal.  Then I placed my order.  I was nervous and excited.  When Alex showed up with the pieces to my new kitchen and began work installing, I knew I had made the best decision in the world.  Everything was done beautifully in true custom quality workmanship.  He worked hard, but equally important he cared and his woodworking talents were exceptional.  Now I am living in my fourth home since then and every time I decide to change something he is my first and most confident call.  Alex has done several jobs for me and I have referred him to many other happy customers.  I just hope he still has time for me when I need him next, he is awesome!!

**Comment from Anew Kitchen and Bath Design Experience:**

> Thanks Chris, it is always a pleasure getting the call as we know your projects are exciting and fulfilling design wise. And hey, who doesn't like working at the beach!

## Community Q&A

**Q: Are the island cabinets the same cabinets (Loring) as the white ones?** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: Yes they are Loring with Smokey Hills finish.

**Q: Great backsplash!** *(in Photo Questions)*

I love the random-cohesiveness of this kitchen.

A: Thank you, it was a lot of fun putting it all together.

**Q: Great atmosphere** *(in Photo Questions)*

You have created a great feel to this space.  Love all of it, especially the incorporated red! This is one of two kitchens (in years!) where I felt the need to investigate more and comment.  Great job.

A: Thank you for the kind words. Let us know if there is anything you would specifically like to know about the project.

**Q: Kitchen Remodel and Home Remodel – Los Gatos, California** *(in Before & After)*

When our client reached out to us, they needed to update their home and create more space for their family. After meeting we found that their wish list also included a home office, a nice entry way and open space. To help bring both their wants and needs to life, we added space to the front of the house and opened up some areas near the kitchen. 



See More After Photos!

A: Very nice layout. I like that you brought in the grey cabinetry in the island.

**Q: KItchen cabinets? Should all upper cabinets be 14" vs 12" deep.** *(in Design Dilemma)*

Our plan currently has 12&quot; and a few at 15&quot; for a staggered effect.  Our ceilings are only 9ft so the cabinets go all the way up.  A friend suggested all uppers be 14 and extent the few to 16 1/2.  Is that common?  Do I need to adjust the lower cabinets?  Any thoughts on this idea.

A: Design wise, as stated, staggered cabinets are out. Going to a deeper wall cabinet may hinder your counter usage as well. But, you may have extra deep plates that require a deeper cabinet interior. Clean straight lines are the way to go but, the kitchen must be functional too so use the depth increase only when needed.

**Q: Backsplash?** *(in Photo Questions)*

Gorgeous backsplash ... assuming the edge isn't finished, how did you finish the top edge where it isn't running up into the cabinetry?

A: The pencil liner is the perfect element to finish the tile with.
