Custom Built-Ins October 2nd, 2015


“We interviewed several Custom Cabinet companies and frankly were not impressed with their vision or ability to present a clear and concise direction.  We found AppletonRenovation.com  on line and set up a design consultation, Ken Appleton arrived and after asking me about what I would like incorporated he put together a complete conceptual drawing of a Self standing desk, Coffered ceiling, Book shelf built-ins, lighting & Shutters.  It was quickly clear to me I found someone that had a great deal of experience and would have no issue in executing our project.

The project went exactly as promised..  We absolutely love our new office, in fact we have already contracted Appleton Renovations to do another Built-in in our formal and two more coffered ceilings.

The Appleton Team is very polite & clean, pleasure to have around.â€

“After interviewing several custom cabinet companies it was clear Appleton Renovations was the one to go with. We were very impressed with Ken’s previous work, knowledge of the entire scope of our project (including cabinetry, electrical, home theater, masonry and finishing), attention to detail, professionalism and transparency in pricing. Appleton Renovations was also the only company who coordinated and scheduled all professionals needed to complete the job including paint and masonry. The project went as planned, on time, on budget and caused minimal disruption to our daily lives. The end result speaks for itself and we are so happy with our beautiful custom built-ins. We now have a warm and inviting place to spend time with our loved ones. Appleton Renovations went above and beyond and exceeded our expectations. We would be happy to recommend Appleton Renovations to anyone seeking perfection!â€

“We have been in our home doing multiple home improvements through out the years and finally felt it was time to address our Master Bedroom.  Upon reviewing www.AppletonRenovations.com  we discovered a few examples of areas similar to our home.  We had Ken come out to design a system for us and then scheduled our project, it was amazing to see them hand craft our custom built-in unit in only a day & a half!   Amazing craftsman ship and a very professional team.  Lastly I thought the painting was a little expensive at first but when I watched the detail in the prep work, then seen the final furniture grade product… I realized I definitely got what I paid for… Perfection and worth every penny!

We are now enjoying our newly renovated sitting room within our Master Bedroom.â€
