Custom Built-in Companies in Cherry Hill

“We had a 5-star experience with District Cabinetry (also known as District Custom Woodworks)! It started with the careful and thoughtful consideration of our needs and preferences in discussions with owner Benton Chrea. He asked great questions and listened carefully to our answers! He came up with a preliminary design that we modified with his help into its final form. We were so pleased in the planning stage for the initial project caused us to add 2 other projects for other rooms. In the end, he did a huge built-in for the study, another large one for the master bedroom, and transformed a very complicated master closet footprint into a design that maximized every bit of space available. He personally visited the house twice to ensure good measurements and to be sure that we all visualized the same end product. Benton will tell you that I have a lot of construction experience (as a developer and builder), and I quizzed him on technical details of the design that he was unused to from customers. Let us just say that we were at the same time discriminating and exacting and he had excellent answers to all of my concerns. The project was finished on time (actually, a little earlier than originally planned) and was finished exactly on budget. Frankly, in the beginning, I thought the proposed charges were kind of high, but we had seen some of his work and his showroom and had developed faith in him, his product and team. The final product is beautiful, met all our design and quality goals, and is clearly engineered and manufactured down to the millimeter. His installation team was fantastic! They spent the better part of 3 days installing and tweaking everything, making sure we understood how to take out the drawers (a little tricky, as they are fancy, really nice, European hardware), etc. The installers were friendly, careful, respectful of our home and were clearly focused on achieving a quality result and pleasing us. So, in the end, my concerns over price were entirely unfounded, because the time invested in creating the design, the quality of the actual product and the care and professionalism of the installers proved to me that my wife was right – we really should pick District Cabinetry for our project! We unhesitatingly endorse Benton and District Cabinetry! We love and use our 3 built-ins every day and appreciate their work (and our investment) every time we use it! We just finished building a pretty complex home and this vendor is at the top of our list in every respect. Our biggest regret in our new home is that we had to buy our kitchen from our builder, Toll Brothers. We would have much preferred to spend that budget at District Cabinetry to get a unique and custom kitchen adapted precisely to our tastes and needs, where our smaller projects tell us that they would have excelled! Please don’t think that I am a gushing kind of person. Neither of us are. We are simply that pleased! This is easily some of the best money we ever spent on any of our homes! If we can refer District Cabinetry to anyone, we will certainly do so. If we can use them again, we would not hesitate. In today’s world, getting what you paid for is a challenge. We got what we paid for in product and in service and could not be happier about it! PS I attach photos of the study built-in. It is hard to photograph the other ones, given their location.”

“Metropolitan Woodworking was recommended to us by a neighbor in our Bethesda condominium. We were taking a fairly small second bedroom and changing it from a bedroom space into an office/guest bedroom. What Dave Scholar immediately understood was the "space" issue. His built-in was exactly the right size to meet our needs and to keep the room as open and spacious as possible. Doug, Dave's craftsman, was wonderful in his workmanship and his courtesy at arriving when scheduled and cleaning up after each appointment. We could not be happier. We now have two neighbors who after our room converted are having their rooms renovated in a similar way. We cannot say enough about how happy we are with Metropolitan Woodworking and the room they created for us. Elizabeth & Dale Snape”

“In all our years of having work done on our home, we never had a more pleasant experience. From design to execution, Eric Smith and his team were the consummate professionals. The team always ensured perfection when it came to their work and were a pleasure to work with them on planning and execution of the project. Eric and team met deadlines, stayed within budget, and worked consistently to ensure that as customers we were satisfied. A wonderful experience over the course of about two months in building an addition to our home.”

“Mike's attention to detail and precision is unmatched. He does beautiful work, and goes the extra mile to get everything just right. I highly recommend him for anyone needing cabinetry work.”

“We replaced the kitchen cabinet and added a custom island. Justin did an excellent job - design, advise - cabinets, rollers, various door models, colors and stains, offering various solutions, very price conscious and we took advantage of discounts not available for model doors at major retailers like Lowe's and Home Depot. For any questions or clarifications, we received answers (by phone or email) within hours. He brought all the merchandize with his truck at no additional charge, opened all the boxes, reviewed everything - we had a minor issue which he handled ]to our satisfaction, in front of us, with the manufacturer. Kraftmaid products and accessories ordered thru him are of excellent quality, arrived on time and were extremely easy to install. Will hire him again without any hesitation.”

“I had book case/cabinet designed and built by Jed Dinger Company. The cabinet was built from solid wood and plywood arch that had faux finished to make it look like rust steel. The cabinet has thick glass shelves holding by steel cables. His work is an art piece that compliments the arch roof line. Jed is a designer and also cabinet builders so he understand how wood can be made. Above all he is a perfectionist so this says it all about his project!”

“We have been using Ark Woodworking for years for custom cabinetry, built-ins, banquettes, custom furniture, window seats, etc. Ben understands how to work with our designs to meet a client's budget within reason. He will proactively make suggestions on when to use a combination of stock parts and pieces, or laminated interiors and/or solid wood throughout. He and his install team are terrific. Our clients love their attention to detail, craftsmanship, and ability to meet deadlines. They have continued to meet or exceed our expectations and are one of our very favorite resources for custom work. Sandra Hambley, DecorAndYouDC”

“I had an idea in my head that I thought would forever live only there. After having been through several contractors, I found Chip and his team. He was able to pull that idea from my imagination and sketch out exactly what I'd been dreaming of. Few contractors take the time and care that A Cut Above does, it speaks to the quality you'll get from start to finish with any project Chip and his team help you with.”

“Zen Cabinetry is an outstanding organization that delivered on their promise to provide us with both a quality kitchen and bathroom make over. The remodeling crew was efficient, courteous and highly skilled. Frank Wang, the overall project manager paid close attention to every detail and was flexible as needed. Would highly recommend them.

“What I liked most about granite works was that Ari really helped me find a great color granite that worked beautifully in my kitchen (and was not expensive!) The work was very professionally done and prompt.”
