CRu Custom Wine Cellars and Saunas

Gary and his team helped us transform our kitchen pantry into a wine closet. From the beautiful design to the impeccable install, CRu Custom Wine Cellars and Saunas were true professionals. To say that we're thrilled would be an understatement. Our wine closet is a statement piece in our kitchen. By far the best contracting experience we've had to date. We'd recommend them in a heartbeat!

We highly recommend Cru Custom Wine Cellars and Saunas! Gary and his team, Dario and Peter, were fantastic to work with, extremely professional and skilled in the design and installation of our wine cellar! Gary could not have been more accommodating, he worked with us from start to finish and he and his team went above and beyond our highest expectations. We had a small area to work with, and Gary understood our vision, offering input and advice throughout the process. The quality, skill, and professionalism of this team far exceeded our expectations and you cannot go wrong choosing them for your wine cellar design and installation!

We had a storage space transformed into a beautiful full spectrum infrared sauna. It was a custom job in a an odd shaped space. The people involved were professional. And the gentleman who did the actually work was an artisan. Double thumbs up!

After building a brand new house, we have been very selective about who we have chosen to work with to add an even greater level of elegance to our home. We reviewed CRu's work on houzz and reached out to Gary to gain insight on what was possible for the space we identified for a wine room. Not only was Gary very responsive, but he used our basic concepts to design a custom room that fits perfectly with our lifestyle and interior design. The finished product exceeded our expectations, gave us a wonderful way to display our collections of wines, and is truly a gem! Thank you, Gary and team!

We used CRu Custom Wine Cellars for our most recent home improvement project and could not be happier with how the project turned out. Everything from my first phone call to the final installment day was a pleasant experience. They are very easy to work with, and Gary really takes the time to listen to your vision for the project. Our wine cellar turned out exactly how we had hoped. Would highly recommend this company for any of your wine cellar design needs!

Gary at Cru Custom Wine Cellars was excellent to work with; professional, met all timelines and was super flexible with our designs when making alterations along the way. Their work quality far exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend Cru for your next job!

My dream has always been to have a wine cellar in my house and the opportunity came up when we were building our house. After meeting with a few people we met Gary and knew instantly he was who we wanted to build our cellar. After explaining what we wanted, Gary came back with a drawing that was exactly what we wanted. Our room is 10X5 glass front, with side laying racks on the top of the wall and beautiful wood racks on the bottom. Rich who installed it was amazing and very hard working. All my friends are jealous now and are trying to figure out how to put a cellar in their house. Thank you Gary and CRu Cellars, we couldn't be happier, I'll be sure to refer you to all my friends.

There's no "wine-ing" here, great design, impeccable installation, reasonably priced and right on time delivery. We highly recommend Gary and CRu Custom Wine Cellars for all you wine cellar needs. Gail and Jerry

CRu Custom Wine Cellars worked seamlessly with my designer, Lauri Godfrey, to create the wine cellar of my dreams! Their collaboration with Lauri was an open dialogue that kept me in the loop with the process from start to finish. The final product is adored by all of my friends who visit. I would highly recommend CRu to anyone wanting to install a wine cellar!

We are so very pleased with the outcome of our wine racking system that words alone just cannot express how happy we are. We worked with Gary for many months providing him with our capacity and space requirements, looks and desires, and budget. He took all of that and went the extra mile providing his experience and vision in numerous CAD drawings bringing it all to life! The final outcome was not only the professional look we desired but it is the talk of the neighborhood! We do not hesitate in highly recommending CRu Wine Cellars and Saunas, and Gary Chapdelaine, for your wine racking...

Our experience with Gary and CRu was exceptional from beginning to end. We spent decades dreaming about building a wine cellar and our day finally arrived. Naturally, we were nervous about picking the right company to work with. Not only was Gary accommodating, meeting with us to go over plans, but he listened carefully and provided a plan that met our needs perfectly. His word was his bond; when he said he would have something done by a certain date he delivered.The installation was expertly done and it is gorgeous. We could not be happier with the work product or professionalism.

We recently upgraded our far-infrared sauna. Gary came out and discussed the options, connected me with the supplier who was able to give me all the information to make the decision. He communicated through the whole process and did a great stress free install working fast to beat the rain. He even worked with me to customize by adding extra insulation. Wish we had room for a wine cellar as would love to work with him on any project!

Very satisfied! The staff is professional, friendly, and punctual. Our wine cellar was beautifully designed and crafted, and installed ahead of schedule. I highly recommend CRu for custom wine cellars.

CRu has built several amazing wine cellars in both private homes and commercial properties (including the JS Marriott in Grande Lakes and Norman's Restaurant at the Ritz) using our label-forward, contemporary wine storage systems. They understand how to design the space to look fabulous while ensuring that the wines are stored safely in climate controlled settings. If you are in the southeast, CRu is a great option for your wine cellar build (using VintageView racks, naturally!).

We used CRu Custom Wine Cellars to design and build our wine room in our new home. The experience from beginning to end was outstanding. They designed a perfect room for our home and the insulation and final product exceeded expectations. I would highly recommend them to anyone.

It has been over seven years since Gary and his team installed my wine cellar. Not only did he build a fantastic cellar, he also has continued to provide excellent service after all o these years. Job well done!

I couldn't have asked for a better result, more pleasant dealings or a better professional than Gary! I'm thrilled with my wine cellar. Gary was respectful of my price concerns and limited space. He made great contributions to the design and made the project a pleasure. Feel free to let me know if you need more information.

Gary did an amazing job with my wine cellar. He was very professional and delivered as promised. I would highly recommend his services. Everything from design to installation was perfectly executed.

I have worked with Gary and Cru on several high end projects that require near perfect results. He is always professional and reliable and provides excellent service. The end result is a beautiful installation and a happy client! He is innovative and creative which leaves us with numerous options. I would recommend his company highly.

Gary was a consummate professional. His knowledge and expertise made the process of building our cellar very enjoyable and the end result was stellar and it actually won Outstanding Feature in our Parade of Homes winning home this spring.

It is a pleasure doing business with Gary of Cru Custom Wine Cellars and Saunas. His great sense of design results in beautifully aesthetic wine cellars, however, his understanding of the nuances and complex building science of wine storage ensures a space that both looks good but functions right as well. His attention to detail is a critical element to the success of his business and I am excited to be collaborating with Cru on the amazing wine cellars he constructs.
