Canoga Park, CA Wine Cellar Designers and Builders

“We had a closet that we turned into a wine cellar. Closet Wine Cellars made and installed our amazing wine racks. These racks show the labels of the bottles making them a piece of art. Our friends all say how beautiful our wine closet is. It is so easy to find the bottle you are looking for, instead of just seeing the top of the bottle with traditional racks. Plus, the cork is kept wet by being slightly lower. We have just bought a new house and will have Closet Wine Cellars make our new wine cellar. Love my wine cellar because of the racks”

“Have worked with Paul for years and he has continued to do quality work and service. We have a showcase wine cellar in my business thanks to PC wine cellars and I highly recommend them as a provider of quality custom wine cellars.”

“I have referred Valentini's Custom Wine Cellars to clients because of Kathleen's excellent decades long track record of providing a complete service from the design process to installation. Her complete understanding of the importance of maintaining the proper environment for wine storage assures my clients that they will be able to store wine properly and in the most beautiful way.”

“Scott did a great job helping me design our wine room. We had limited space to work with, but I was still able to build a walk in room that holds 500 bottles! Love the "label view" storage for the back wall. It is the focal point of our Great Room. I would definitely use him again.”

“Gabriel is one the most hardworking, creative, and honest design professionals in our community. He designed for us the largest and most elegant, and efficient wine cellars. It holds over 1500+ wines. When we decided to turn our gym room into a cellar we had no idea what to do or expect. But Gabriel came in full of different ideas. He was prompt and extremely reasonable and everything was absolute quality work! No issue seemed too big or too trivial for him. We have never had a single issue or problem with our cellar since he built it and Gabriel has regularly stayed in touch with us - anytime we need it to be serviced he is there on the spot. I cannot recommend Gabriel enough. He is by far 5 plus design professional!!”

“Jill was very professional during the entire process of design and construction of all the custom millwork pieces she supplied to our restaurant project. We would definitely recommend her for other installation.”

“Working with Ted from California Wine Cellars was a terrific experience. I am so grateful that he was introduced to us and that he made creating this "special space" in our home a professionally managed and reliable experience. Conceptualizing and creating a wine cellar/tasting room was a very intimidating project from the get go. Researching this process online only led to greater fear and anxiety....I heard horror stories about DIY results. The idea of ordering the racks from some far out provider based on our template, while attempting to measure the space and then draw it out....Yuck!!! Ted did it all....guaranteed the work and the fit and I didn't have to deal with the stress of making any errors. The work was fast and efficient and I got exactly what I envisioned.”

“Vintage Cellars has worked with Dan Phillips at US Cellar Systems for over 10 years. We rely heavily on his Commercial Wine Cellar Cooling Units for our projects, and we have had nothing but smooth sailing with Dan's products. US Cellar Systems and their team are consistently showcasing what it truly means to run a caring business. The customer service is outstanding - Dan has even allowed us to call him on his cell over the weekend in a pinch. We could not say better things about this company and we highly recommend all of their products. We look forward to a great continued relationship and many projects in the future together!”

“Mario at M&M Cellar Systems has been our go-to HVAC Contractor for over 10 years in the Los Angeles Area. Mario and Vintage Cellars have collaborated on hundreds of projects together. It is very apparent that Professionalism, Knowledge, and Dedication are rooted deep in M&M Cellar Systems's core values. We highly recommend Mario and look forward to many more projects in the future together!”

“For years we were wanting to remodel/renovate the long narrow galley kitchen in our 81-year-old tudor-esque home in Long Beach, Calif. Because the home is located in the California Heights historic district, the changes had to reflect the history of the house which has been preserved through the years through what can only be called benign neglect. Through the historic district's annual home tour fundraiser we were able to see the work of Lou Gaudio and Omnicraft Enterprises. It was apparent that he took a keen interest in preserving the flavor and historic nature of the homes in the neighborhood, while providing for modern conveniences. When we finally pulled the trigger on the renovation, Lou is the guy we called. The project proceeded in three phases: consultation, execution, completion. Consultation: Lou was incredibly resourceful and helpful during this phase. He visited with us. He listened. He looked at the pictures of what we liked from various magazines we'd been saving. He paid careful attention to what we thought the kitchen should be from living in the home for 12 years. Through this consultative approach, he offered his own suggestions based on our ideas and what best fit the character of the home. We decided that instead of doing a simple tile job and new cabinet doors, we would gut the kitchen, install new cabinets that would offer more usable space and give us more counter space, tile two whole walls with subway tile and install a soapstone counter. We also opted to add a set of dishwasher drawers. Lou is also a cabinet maker and he helped us decide on Shaker-style doors and drawer fronts (including on the dishwasher) as well as materials for drawer glides, hinges, etc. At each step of the process, we asked for and received his input on just about every detail — from lighting to grout color to which tile we would use. Given our budget, he also helped us shave off some of the cost by going with different materials and types of construction. After mostly nailing down the scope of the project we moved into demolition. Execution: Lou and his employee Marvin (sorry, I forget his last name) completed all the demo work and were exceedingly clean and organized. Once the room was gutted, Lou proceeded with his subs for some of the work. His drywall guys were in an complete, then came the cabinets, then counter top, then the tile guys (Thanks Gurzi Bros Tile!), doors, drawers, and paint. Again, Lou's extensive knowledge of various historic home styles was helpful in making decisions on the little details. We waffled back and forth on what kind of hinge, narrowing it down to two different style butterfly hinges. Lou and I stood there in the kitchen one day comparing the two, matching the various elements in the ornate hinges to the lines and style of the cabinets, etc. It was a small detail it seemed, but once the cabinet doors were installed, it was obvious we went in the right direction. Completion: All of Lou's subs were extremely skilled and conscientious, but his painters really took the cake. The prep work was exacting and methodical and the finish painting was just beautiful. These guys, Action Paint and Services of Whittier, Calif., were fantastic. Toward the end of the project, we decided to add some work to the scope. At some point in the home's history, two wood sash double hung windows were replaced with glass louvered windows. We made the move back to wood windows and Lou was able to get a window guy in to give us an estimate and then move forward with making and installing the windows, all without adding too much extra time to the project. Now all but finished (just a couple small, extra bits left), the kitchen is exactly as I'd envisioned it while cooking in there for 12 years. It's the kitchen we'd seen in the various magazine clippings we'd saved. It's the one that now gives me a huge amount of counter space, cabinets that are usable (the originals had long outlasted their usefulness) and a dishwasher that makes the manual dishwasher in our house very happy. I'd happily recommend Lou and his services to anybody looking to make a period-correct, carefully detailed upgrade to their home.”
