Jim Farris Cabinets

Working with real craftsman at Jim Farris Cabinets was a such pleasure. Jim provided invaluable expertise and guidance for our bathroom renovation project. The cabinets and vanities turned out perfect and really make the bathrooms beautiful spaces. If you are looking for exacting work and expert craftmanship, look no further than Jim Farris and his team.

I must say that before I write this review, I am still in the arduous process of arguing with my insurance company on whether they should pay for new custom cabinets as a result of an inside water damage claim. I do not wish this on an enemy. However, I needed someone to turn to that could appreciate the quality of my cabinets and I found Mr. Jim Farris. He was prompt to his appointment and his knowledge of Cherry wood and the effects of water upon them was beyond impressive. It did not take him long to explain to a lay person [Me] exactly why the cabinets could not be de-stained, sanded and re-stained as the insurance company desired and what would happen in the way of further damage overtime because of the water exposure. Nevertheless, he painstakingly determined the total square footage of such a job and provided a quote for same so I could send it to the insurance company. Then, he quoted what the replacement cost would be. Another thing that impressed me about Mr. Farris was his ability to readily admit the quality of work of the original cabinet maker. It takes a real "grown-up" to admit that another's work is of high quality as well as his own. I look forward to the end of these insurer negotiations so, one day, I can experience his work first hand. I recommend Mr. Farris without reservation.

We engaged Jim and his crew to help us with a few special projects for our new home. (We kept expanding the scope as we were so pleased with their work!). They constructed a beautiful live-edge walnut bartop, a custom wine storage room, a barn door, and a custom walnut table to fit a niche in our game room. In each case, the quality and the attention to detail were wonderful. Jim made suggestions in each case that enhanced the functionality and beauty of each piece. We will certainly not hesitate to contact Jim and his crew for future projects.

We strongly recommend Jim Farris custom cabinets. They do high-quality work, deliver on time at the quoted price, and were able to match the color/finish we wanted each time. They have many samples to help you with selection and we were very happy with their installation process.

We moved into a new home about a year ago. Unsatisfied with our existing dining room buffet and unable to find a satisfactory one to purchase, we began investigating custom solutions. After researching local cabinet makers, we decided to email Jim Farris Cabinets. Within a day or two, Jim called and we discussed our needs. Jim came to the house, saw the space we were working with, listened to our conceptual ideas (our taste is modern/contemporary), and began proposing designs. This is where Jim’s artistic background and decades of experience shines through. After settling on a conceptual design, Jim proceeded to complete the detailed design, emailed it and a cost estimate to us for approval, then began work. After a few weeks, John and Jose installed the completed buffet and wall mounted shelf units, doing attentive, meticulous work. We couldn’t have been happier with the end product. Beautiful, high-quality buffet. A few months later, we again turned to Jim for a TV console/feature wall. Holy Cow! Jim had outdone himself! Unbelievable artistry and quality! 100% satisfied! For those considering using Jim and reading these testimonials, I will say this: Almost all the reviews are outstanding. They are legitimate. They are not hyperbole. We based our decision to use Jim in part on these testimonials, and things could not have worked out better. Highly recommended!!!

Jim built custom cabinets for both of our bathrooms. He is very professional, knowledgeable about his craft, & helpful throughout the entire process. The work was completed on budget and within the time frame agreed upon. Our Cabinets Are Beautiful!! The workmanship is impeccable (doors line up, finish is even & smooth, everything fits snug with no gaps, etc.). His installers are professional & courteous. Nothing is bumped or scratched & everything is left clean when they are finished. I have used numerous contractors and Jim is the only one that I could just sit back & relax after I signed the contract.

Each project is unique and challenging in their own way. We believe in creating a team that can execute and deliver on the design and homeowners expectations. We listened to what our homeowners wanted and understood that the performance and finish of their cabinets must be second to none. Farris Cabinets are the only ones we had in mind that could execute, meet those expectations for our homeowners. Jim and his team build some of the most innovative functional cabinets in the market and their finishes are out of this world. If you want the quality of an actual automotive finish or a finish that a painter can't produce on site, Jim has the capabilities at his shop to control the environment and produce those extraordinary coatings. Jim has a wealth of knowledge and years of experience will assure the best results. He is a truly custom carpenter that can take your imagination and make it in reality.

Jim has been building cabinets for us for about 30 years. His workmanship, precision and attention to detail are amazing. His cabinets have stood the test of time and four active kids. We keep coming back to him because no one does it better! We have used him in multiple rooms for several homes.

The journey to a custom cabinetry project can be fraught with peril (cost overruns, delays, poor communication, less-than-expected quality) but we can honestly say that our experience with Jim Farris and his team of skilled artisans was just the opposite: we could not be more pleased with the exceptional quality of our cabinets and custom master bedroom frame and nightstands, and the highly collaborative process of designing and fabricating them. On a scale of 1 to 10, we rate Jim Farris Cabinets a clear 10! From the start, we appreciated Jim's ability to listen to what our goals were, and then translate those into extremely detailed shop drawings for review by us and our team of architects and builder. Jim walked us through each drawing in great detail to ensure that we fully understood them, frequently offering us the benefit of his accumulated wisdom and experience. He is highly collaborative, identifying and fixing potential problems as they arose while also offering creative solutions to thorny issues. We were impressed, too, with Jose and John, who fabricated and installed the cabinets and custom woodwork. They were unfailingly focused on mounting the cabinets with the same high caliber of quality as they were crafted with, as well as ensuring that we were fully satisfied with the look and operation of the installed product. We might have found someone to do the cabinetry for less, we would not have had the great experience and wonderful outcome that we had with Jim and his team. They combined artistry with exceptional craft to produce stunningly beautiful and functional cabinets for us, and for that we are grateful. As such, we would recommend Jim Farris Cabinets without reservation for anyone looking for the best for their new home or remodel project.

We hired Jim Farris cabinets for an island in our kitchen and for an entertainment center in our den area, Jim Farris cabinets completed the job in a timely manner and with very high quality materials. He presented us with a written estimate which gave us every aspect of the layout of our island and entertainment center as well as when each payment would be due, We found Jim Farris Cabinets to be a very well run company and we would use them again, Very good workmanship the kind you do not see everyday.

Jim Farris and his team did a wide variety of custom cabinetry and millwork at a house that I recently renovated. They built a custom bed complete with a leather work head board, suspended side tables, and a beautiful platform. They built a dressing table and two custom dressers, a new vanity for my master bathroom, and even a shower bench. In my office, they built a beautiful suspended desk table and cabinets with pull out drawers. Finally, they replaced my kitchen cabinets, television cabinet, and bar. It was a very big project, but Jim and the team always delivered what they promised and the work is unimpeachable. Jim takes a lot of care to do things right, and provides good advice on the trade-offs along the way. I couldn't recommend them highly enough.

Friends, Our project is a custom structure in a rural Texas setting with detailed architecture. The home is very modern (rustic) and successful aesthetics depended on superbly crafted and integrated cabinetry which Jim Farris cabinets (JFC) pulled off beyond expectation. We were very fortunate he was recommended by our architect to design master closet, 2 baths, kitchen/pantry, guest kitchenette & mud/utility room. A decisive, fair, and capable Jim was consistently ahead of timeline. Straight-up he was the point of light that sustained us during protracted completion period. My husband's father felled and planked walnut lumber in 1980's from which Jim added live-edge walnut features to home. After completion of interior cabinetry he artfully designed and constructed exquisite furniture: dining table, center table and 2 side tables! His superb talent and guidance made the defining difference. Readers need to understand- It doesn't get any better. Thank you Jim for the memories. Linda N and Robert M
