I had an extremely positive experience with AZ Wood Renovations LLC:
I was advised to "paint these galley kitchen cabinets white" on the advice of my realtor, in order to sell my houseSo I looked at photos of similar houses for sale that showed kitchen cabinets that had been painted white in an effort to update older out of fashion cabinetsMany looked as if the seller had tried to do it himselfUghI was not optimistic or enthusiasticI was skeptical that this was even the right way to goSo, I also looked into liquid sanding & re-staining my cabinets, and re-sealing them, and was told they would look a LOT betterOne company estimated it would cost me well over $3,--and I did not even like or care for the re-finished samples they showed me! After asking a lot of different cabinet people a lot of questions, I just had a really good gut feeling about the answers I got from Steve Fetters of AZ Wood Renovations, LLCI liked the kind of person he was, and listening to his explanations, I developed confidence in his knowledge, & experienceThus he won my trust, offered to do the job for $2,and I hired himThe result was no less than astonishingSteve delivered results that far exceeded the result I anticipatedDoes this mean I had low expectations? Absolutely notI am a perfectionistMy husband nicknamed me "MsQ.C" (quality control)My cabinets were original to a house that had owners before me, and the fronts of them were in horrible conditionSome of my bathroom vanity drawers needed repair to the degree that several handymen had looked at them and told me they could not repair themSteve took the jobHe knew I was pushing a certain time tableHe met my time table, perfectlyHe had a friend of his re-build identical replicas of several of the drawers that were beyond repairDid he charge me extra for this? NoHe stuck to his original quote to me, that we had agreed uponHe brought samples of moulding like crown moulding for me to choose from to add to the tops of my plain cabinets, as well as *** samplesHe brought a palette of whites for me to select from, (since I had requested white), but he also took some time to look carefully, himself, at the colors in my kitchen tile, and my wall color and my kitchen granite counters before recommending which particular white, of all the many whites, that he thought, in his experienced eye, would work best with the colors in the other components of my kitchenIn the end, I concluded his choice of white, was indeed the right choice, that was my final decision, and I gave him the go aheadI waited a few days for the big reveal of my cabinets (since I was not living in this house) When I returned to see the finished work, I was wide eyedI could barely believe itSteve is no amateurMy finished cabinets had a surface smooth as glass, with just the perfect degree of sheen, not too shiny, just absolutely perfect! I had no worries about the paint ever chippingSteve had added a hardener to the paint, he explained to me afterwardsMy kitchen cabinets and my bathroom cabinets were TRANSFORMEDDoing this not only transformed the cabinets themselves, but the kitchen was transformed, the great room was transformed, the bathrooms were transformedThe result was ASTONISHINGThe knobs he recommended were PERFECTThe moulding he had urged me to select, and that he had attached at the tops of the cabinets truly dressed them up, just the right amount, not too muchThe moulding was minimal cost and yielded an amazing improvementThe particular shade of white Steve had recommended to me was incredibly perfectSteve was easy to communicate with by text or phone call, he always got back to me the same dayHe was always very specific, never vagueThis was a guy whose word I could count onMy husband saw the results and was amazed at the perfection and the quality, and told me that he thought I really chose the right proI know I didI would highly recommend Steve without any reservations, to ANYONEI had a great experience working with him and I received a truly great result
