Creative Cabinets

A kitchen/ family room remodel that started out great and ended poorly. The first fiasco was tile behind a pellet stove. Custom tile minted off center leaving 1/2to 3/4 gap on top and one side. This was the final bit to be down. Nick wanted full payment, but I asked him to come out and inspect the work before I wrote the last check. He agreed it was awful, said he would replace it - get him a quote on the tile (($1200). I also offered a less expensive alternative to meet him part way as the relationship had been amicable to this point (horrible paint job -fixed it, ordered a wrong cabinet - fixed it). Never heard from Nick again. Multiple texts and phone calls - only response was when he thought I was a different job. Since then we found our hood was installed wrong - didn’t use mounting hardware- screwed directly to the wall. He installed the wrong dishwasher (we had two) - said he would swap it, never did but then I found out why. The one we wanted was a standard American sized 24” dishwasher (and spec’d for it in the plans). Installed was a euro-sized dishwasher - at the time I didn’t think much of it until I tried to swap them and the opening will not accept a standard dishwasher. Installed vent trim outside the house has blown off, sheet rock seams are showing (poorly taped), flooring uneven and he never fixed a chip from day one. I would give one star but the design was very good - execution and attention to detail including any follow up left a bad taste however taking away from all that.

It’s difficult to get this team rolling, but the end results have been very acceptable. Thank you very much.

My husband and I worked with the owner of Creative Cabinets and his assistant when we decided to remodel our kitchen. Both were professional and designed a kitchen for us that is perfect for our home. During the design process, both Nick and Grace came to our house several times to discuss the vision of the new kitchen, as well as us going to the showroom to choose our quartz, cabinets, etc. Nick and his crew did not disappoint us and we were pleased with the outcome. We highly recommend Creative Cabinets The finished product looks great and is exactly what we wanted! My favorite part is the touch sensor to control the undermounted lights!

We hired Nick at Creative Cabinets to help us with an in-law apartment. We met with him at Creative Cabinets and at the work location. He was very knowledgeable and accommodating. He had all of the contractors that were needed lined up and everything went very smoothly. We were extremely pleased with the cabinets, workmanship and professionalism from all that worked on our project.

Nick and his crew were a pleasure to work with. Nick made the process very easy and was able to show us a number of "virtual" options that helped us make a decision that we were happy with. Nick was able to provide many valuable design suggestions that we would never have thought of and the result was a beautiful, functional kitchen. The crew that did the installation was very professional and the coordination with electrical, plumbing and cabinet installation was seamless. The cabinets are beautiful and all the workmanship is flawless. We couldn't be happier with our experience with Creative Cabinets and would enthusiastically work with them again on future projects.

Creative Cabinets did an outstanding job remodeling our kitchen and dining room. We did 2 months of homework interviewing different kitchen firms and we kept coming back to this firm. The main reason was that they have been in business for 35 years, prompt responses to our questions and most of all they were very understanding and acceptable to our ideas. Our homework paid off and as result we have our dream kitchen. In our families eyes its a masterpiece. there were bumps during construction, as one would expect but Nick and his professional team of contractors handles it all in a very favorable fashion. I love my new kitchen and open dining room plan and would not change thing. Pics Coming

“There is no magic in magic, its all in the details- Walt Disney”, this is in Nick’s email signature, and it cannot be further from the truth. His projected 7 week project in our kitchen turned into a 12 week project and we are still not done because we have to have our entire kitchen floor ripped up and re-tiled. When the tile was put in we noticed that it looked uneven and let him know. He had his contractor “fix” it, but it still looked uneven. We let him know yet again that it stilled looked uneven to which he said they’d fix it at the end of the job. When we refused to have the same contractor put in our tile backsplash Nick brought in a new guy (who did a fantastic job on the backsplash) and he told Nick that the floor was done wrong and it would have to be ripped up to correct it. This was the biggest problem we had, however not the only… Light switch cover: cut a cheap plastic one to fit an outlet, rather than order a new one to fit our brand new kitchen. Wanted to charge us an additional $1,400 to install a countertop, which was supposed to be part of the original work. Had to fight with him to replace the recessed lighting because after they were put in the first time, you could see about ½” gap around each light-fixture in the ceiling. A couple of his contractors called us after the job was completed to find out if we paid him because he was not paying them. This is unprofessional and not our problem, that was why we hired him – to deal with the contractors. Make sure your vet his contractors, because at the end of the job, we found out some very disconcerting information about one guy that was in our home more than any of the other contractors.

remodel of a 1957 kitchen. Kitchen cabinets and design were amazing. Very professional and delivered excellent customer service. I would highly recommend

I would not consider any other company for a home remodel. Creative Cabinets is the best in the business. From the first time that we sat with Tony Maruca to discuss our kitchen remodel, we knew we were working with the right people. They work through the process from start to finish as true professionals who are passionate about what they do. Quality work and making the project as easy on the homeowner as possible are their number one priorities. They also approach the process with a sense of honesty and humility. There was not a moment during our 6-week kitchen remodel that we did not know what was going on. Nick and Tony Maruca were onsite daily, morning and evening to check the progress of the project. We were notified immediately if/when anything came up. And a couple things did, given the fact that we were completely remodeling a 75+ year old house. We were always given options on how to best approach a change in the project and the additional cost associated. I honestly cannot say enough positive things about the entire Creative Cabinets team. Every contractor that they brought into our home was thorough, competent and courteous. Look no further, put your trust and your investment in the hands of Creative Cabinets.

We hired Creative Cabinets to help us design and completely remodel our kitchen. Tony and Nick were professional in every aspect of the process and could not have been more knowledgeable and helpful. Their experience in design, cabinetry and all phases of construction took all of the stress out of the project. The Kitchen was completely gutted and, as with any 100+ year old home, the imperfections were uncovered. What seemed to be daunting to us was, to them, an opportunity to work with the character that was inherent to the original construction. Using what was there, the results, to us, are simply amazing. We love this beautiful kitchen.

We were extremely pleased with the quality of work and attention to detail. The work timeframe was quick and the cleanup was spotless. Nick was very flexible and accommodating. We absolutely love our kitchen and are so thankful we used Creative Cabinets. We would highly recommend to our family and friends!
