    Kitchen Cabinets

    f my review could deter one individual from using this company then I would consider it a success. Emilio has been a nightmare to deal with from the beginning. He does not return phone calls in a timely manner and is a difficult person to deal with. We had a newly installed (2 months old) kitchen cabinet door chip paint and Emilio would not cover the damage through warranty claiming it was water damage. I do not agree with him (we have not had any water problems in our kitchen) but if what he is saying is true then the "big box" - and much less expensive - kitchen in our last home was better quality than this. I am disappointed that we spent so much money with this company and he would not stand by his warranty for a small door. In addition to the previous information, Emilio offered to replace the door in exchange for more positive reviews but I would now prefer to warn other potential customers about this company. Please avoid the headache and use a different cabinet company.

    Answer from pro:

    Dear Josh and Samantha, I have explained many times that water damage is not covered by warranty. You do not have to have water problems in order for damage to woodwork to occur. When water is allowed to run down the face of the sink cabinet without being wiped, it will collect in the gap between the frame rail and center panel. Ultimately it will penetrate into that gap and cause the wood to swell and crack the paint. Your door had this happen which was apparent by the swelling of both the center panel and the frame rail. This is very similar to spills on hardwood flooring and coffee tables used without coasters. Both will exhibit damage and wear if not wiped of the liquid relatively promptly. Neither of those products will be covered under warranty even though they cost thousands and thousands as well. To compound the problem, you immediately took an assertive stance that this is not your problem and that we have to take responsibility for the water damage, and very quickly followed up with a negative review in what we can only surmise is an attempt of slander in order to get free parts and labour. Unfortunately (for you) we appreciate having some mixed reviews as it sheds light on the realty of the trials and tribulations of running a customer service business. Anyone in a customer service industry will be able to relate to this and we all know you cant keep everyone happy all the time. That being said, and highly coincidentally, another client had just emailed a couple weeks back that she damaged her dishwasher panel door, and apologized for the inconvenience of making a new one and offered to pay. We expressed that we understand it happens, and there is no need to apologize or pay. The key difference being that she took ownership of the issue and did not try to force us into doing free work. We look forward to her positive review for going above and beyond as we have been for the past 30 years. I suppose its also worth noting that you made another false claim in stating publicly that you paid thousands and thousands for the kitchen, from which the door in question is from. When in fact the kitchen was purchased by the seller of the home you bought, for whom we've been supplying kitchens for the past 20 years and has left us numerous positive reviews and sent dozens of referrals. In conclusion, we still stand by our offer to provide you with a replacement door at no charge, if you would be kind enough to acknowledge our effort publicly with a positive review, as we do in fact pride ourselves and are known for great customer service.

    Condo Renovation

    We have used the services of Michael Hollenbeck on 2 occasions. We moved into a new condo and did a complete renovation. We had a large kitchen, dining room cabinets, 2 bathrooms, laundry room and custom shelving for our living room and walk in closet. Michael was the design mastermind behind all of these spaces. Michael creates spaces that are well thought out, have a sense of style and provide function. Michaels experience helped us make good choices for finishing, materials and styles of cabinetry. We could not have done this without his expertise. We always get complemented on our renovations and Michael is a big part of that. Our second renovation into yet another condo had us searching for Michael again as he had changed jobs and was now with K Design Custom Cabinetry. Once again Michael worked his magic in a new space with new challenges and once again wowed us with his design. Hopefully we won’t need him a third time, but would definitely use him again if that came to pass.

    Full Kitchen Replacement *amazing*

    We had a great experience with K Design and continue to enjoy our beautiful kitchen every day. We looked at different companies and chose K Design. A friend also used them and their kitchen was amazing as well. The custom design and thought put into our kitchen was more than what we expected. The results and cabinetry were also more than what we expected. We would gladly use them again and continue to share their name with everyone who asks. It's been over 1.5 years too and it's held up very well. Thanks again K Design and team.

    Kichens, Bathrooms, and Laundry Rooms

    As a designer, I have worked with many clients on their homes and have used K Design for all of the Kitchens, Bathrooms and Laundry Rooms. I bring in a design I have laid out and Karolina fine tunes it so we optimize the space. Matt has always given great after service care to my clients and gone above and beyond for some as well.

    Answer from pro:

    Happy in Oakville

    I went to cca 20 kitchen design companies and decided on K Design the moment I spoke to them. Karolina listened to us, followed our wish list, and designed a kitchen we love. Matt and his crew were always courteous, professional, pleasant...and on time. We recommend K Design Cabinetry !

    Don’t waste your time.

    Terrible service. They are only interested in dealing with you IF you want to spend lots of money. They don’t want your business if you only want to spend $50k. Michael kept talking about a $200k project he is doing and what a hassle it is having to keep changing plans to please the client and his boss. So it’s clear from his comments that it is a huge inconvenience working with clients to give them what they want. There are so many kitchen companies. Go elsewhere.

    Answer from pro:

    Dear Homeowner, We are sorry to hear you had a negative experience with our company. Contrary to your Impression, and although we do nice work in the price range you mentioned, we actually cater to every need a client has for cabinetry in their home, with no minimum. It is true there are many cabinet companies out there, however only the best few such as ourselves can claim being a reputable well established company that provides top quality products and service for over 25 years. This achievement doesnt happen overnight and certainly not by turning clients away. We value and respect all clients regardless of budget. We would only turn away clients if the project was not in the scope of our work, such as door Refacing, repainting existing kitchens or retrofitting our cabinets to blend into existing kitchens. I would like to discuss your experience with you directly rather than via the internet if possible. Thank you Emilio Fabris 905-961-4657 direct.
