#ad It finally happened - install day arrived! This is where California Closets distinguished itself from all the rest, going to extreme lengths to make the process stress-free, quiet (which I wasn't expecting!) and tidy. Something else to know - there's no job too big or too small for California Closets. I thought ours was a relatively small project, but they can handle any size storage solution. Got a tiny, little closet that seems like a waste because it only houses your water heater? Let them make useful space out of that closet! That example is actually one I saw at their new Punta Gorda showroom. Ask them to show you, too!
First step was to protect the floors, which I really appreciated because we just replaced the laminate after Ian.
The next step is to measure precisely and I mean precisely. I want one of those laser levels now!
Only about 45 minutes into the process, and I can see our vision coming together!
Uh oh, a little hiccup. I had run a necessary cord where I shouldn't have, and it needed to stay. "No problem Mr. Matthews," they said! They cut a quick hole (outside - NO power tools inside whatsoever) and put a grommet in, no extra charge!
The home stretch! The drawers and cabinet doors take some effort but, it's worth it just to have that slow-close whisper that says this is a quality product. Incidentally, something else that distinguishes California Closets from the rest is that they manufacture everything locally. That's why it's so easy for them to pivot when your project needs a little change in direction!
Ta -da! Less than four hours later, we were able to start putting stuff away and decorating. We love the look! It literally stops us in our tracks every time. It's so sturdy and well built - but luxuriously beautiful at the same time. Maybe we won't junk it up after all with that now somewhat infamous Senor Frogs tourist chachki I've talked about so much. Still don't know what it is anyway. I highly recommend you visit them to get inspired and excited about your personal space! Visit the new California Closets showroom in Punta Gorda at 512 E. Marion Ave. or call for a free consultation at 239-694-8100!
