Because of this, I was not looking for a top of the line product, but wanted something nice and more unique than from a big box store. I visited Dennis at his workshop and was immediately impressed by his craftsmanship and knew he was a perfectionist and stickler for detail. This proved to be exactly the case! Dennis built two gorgeous cabinets for me with soft close drawers and doors and the quality far exceeded my expectations. There were a few minor glitches in the install (not done by Dennis), but he immediately came over to take care of everything. From the workmanship to the customer service by both Amanda and Dennis, I will never use anyone but Dennisbilt again for my cabinetry needs. I should also note, I have seen the high end work Dennis has done and it is absolutely beautiful and stunning. I highly recommend him! **★★★★★ — Bryan Renyer, Dec. 2016** > Dennis Bracken provided a superior quality product and on time for my project. The attention to detail was evident when I compared his product to others in the custom cabinet marketplace. I would highly recommend Dennisbilt Custom Cabinetry & Design to others looking quality, value, and experience. **★★★★★ — Nancy Johnson, Dec. 2016** > My husband and I recently decided to update the kitchen in our 15 year old house and our designer introduced us to Dennisbilt Custom Cabinetry (and are we ever glad she did). We had Dennis Bracken design and hand craft a new wet bar and center island for the kitchen, it’s both beautiful and very functional. The materials used were all first class and sturdy, my husband now jokes that in case of a storm we should get in the center island, no need to head to the basement. > Our friends all comment on the beauty of his work. There is nothing “off the shelf” in the construction, but the cost is not that much higher than the “off the shelf” cabinetry. We now have “one of a kind” works of art for our kitchen, we don’t just have cabinets, we have kitchen furniture. **★★★★★ — E.L. Construction, Dec. 2016** > Dennisbilt did an exceptional job on the custom cabinetry for our kitchen! Dennis came out and measured, gave advice, showed examples and took our budget into consideration during the whole project. His stain choice matched the existing cabinets there were staying, next to the new ones that he made. You can't tell that we have 2 different kinds of cabinets, he is THAT good! **★★★★★ — Carol Murray, Sept. 2016** > I hired Dennisbilt Cabinetry for a kitchen remodel. Dennis met with me prior to starting the project and we looked at all the styles and options for cabinets, hardware, and drawer organizers . He showed me many options and offered helpful suggestions, making it clear that all final decisions were mine. I was able to choose the type of wood used, the custom wood stain, and when it was time to pick out countertops, Dennis met me at the Cambria Quartz showroom and walked me through that process. Dennis provided several layout alternatives for my small kitchen (11 x 11 feet) and the improved layout makes our kitchen not only feel larger but is more functional. He worked very well with my contractor and coordinated schedules so the process was seamless. Dennis is very skilled and meticulous, and the craftsmanship of the cabinets is very high end, yet the price was very reasonable. I highly recommend working with Dennisbilt Cabinetry. (Amanda is great to work with too). **★★★★★ — Interior Directions by Susan Prestia, Allied ASID, Aug. 2016** > Dennisbilt is a Designer's & Client Dream come true. Quality is \#1. Professional follow-through with on time meetings,quotes and installs. Dennisbilt has an emphasis to detail. Works well with all professionals & clients. Can wait for the next project. Much success, Dennisbuilt. **Comment from Dennisbilt Fine Cabinetry & Design:** > Thank you very much Susan for the kind words. We always enjoy working with you as well and we also are looking forward to the next project! > Warm regards, > Dennis & Amanda **★★★★★ — invitinginteriors, Aug. 2016** > Dennis is a true craftsman. He and Amanda are ejoyable to work with and my clients have always been extremely pleased with the outcome of their projects! **★★★★★ — Curtis Young, April 2016** > After getting several estimates from cabinet builders we decided to use Dennisbilt for a full kitchen remodel and we were not disappointed. The attention to detail and the craftsmanship put into our new cabinets I cannot imagine we would have gotten anywhere else. Dennis built Knotty Alder cabinets with V-Groove doors with a light stain for a rustic look and what he provided was amazing. They are very sturdy and very well built. > > The personal attention Dennis and Amanda provide is unmatched. Dennis walked us through every step of the build and provided design ideas that helped us get the perfect kitchen for us. Dennis was able to keep us close to on budget for this stage of the build and he walked us through what was increasing or decreasing cost so that we could make educated decisions on the importance of each stage of the build. > > If you are looking for a cabinet builder that has a great eye for detail and quality you will not be disappointed with Dennisbilt. **★★★★★ — Tom McChesney, March 2016** > Quality of workmanship is amazing. Dennis worked under a tight time frame and did a superlative job! I would not hesitate for a moment to recommend him. **★★★★★ — lnbeck, March 2016** > Dennisbilt Custom Cabinetry was a crucial part of my kitchen design. His level of craftsmanship and attention to detail are impeccable. He was fantastic to work with and was able to see my vision and build on it. I am beyond thrilled with the finished product and would recommend Denisbilt to ANYONE! Well done Dennis. Thank you. **★★★★★ — glegaspi, April 2015** > 2014 Kitchen remodel: Excellent quality, meticulous, came to my work to show me samples, told me timeframe to start/finish the job and followed it, told me when they would be able to install and were on time. Courteous, accomodating and patient with changes in design and would always tell me cost changes. I would work with them again. **★★★★★ — Brynn Burns Photography, LLC, April 2015** > I have photographed Dennisbilt Custom Builders' projects in clients' homes, and I've been impressed with his attention to detail, gorgeous design and high quality finished product. It's a pleasure to document his amazing work! ## Selected projects - [Hyde Park Luxury Master Closet](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/hyde-park-luxury-master-closet-pj-vj~2513303) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 18 - Description: Lavish and organized luxury enhances the fine art of dressing while providing a place for everything.

A: Hello Andrew, the color is Sherwin Williams Dorian Gray. **Q: What color are these cabinets painted?** *(in Photo Questions)* Thanks, beautiful work! A: I like to have the furniture and wall color different myself. Depending on how much wall would be a factor on the color **Q: This light fixture is beautiful! Where is it from? Thanks!** *(in Photo Questions)* A: It's from Wilson Lighting! **Q: Love floor!** *(in Photo Questions)* Love this floor! Would you share the wood species, stain, & finish/sealer? A: The floor is a Rustic White Oak with a clear coat. **Q: I need help deciding on cabinet brand/material! Quick please!** *(in Design Dilemma)* I am trying to decide between Wellborn Select cabinets and Marsh Furniture cabinets. The biggest difference is the paint and door materials. The Wellborn has a "Wellguard" finish - a patented process with melamine enriched top coats and UV cured. The Marsh Furniture cabinets just put 3 coats of paint and 2 coats of sealer. We will be doing white and gray cabinets. The other difference is the door fronts - Marsh has maple stiles and mdf center panel. The Wellborn has a completely MDF cabinet door. Any experiences or expert advice is greatly appreciated. I need to make the choice today! Thank you! A: Mdf is a good stable material for the center panel of a cabinet door no explanation or contraction under normal conditions . you are correct on the part of water problems can happen if you neglected to wipe them down of moisture . for the most part if it is a hard wood frame around the panel and the Mdf panel is caulked in with 3 coats of paint and 2coats of sealer it will be fine. if you are concerned about water damage to any thing it should be inside the cabinet if those prefab cabinets you are looking at are melamine interiors that is where you're problems will be .and if they do make there cabinets out of that stuff the doors will last longer the cabinets **Q: Range hood vent** *(in Design Dilemma)* I'm looking at the chimney type of range hood vent. I prefer the look of the one with the glass around it but am concerned about how hard it will be to keep it clean verses the all stainless steel model. Any advice please? Thank you. A: Just something simple that is to much to clean --- *Source: Houzz professional profile. Reflects the profile as of 2026-09-23.*
