Gabriel Conen Cabinetry

Gabe did an amazing job putting a built-in-bench into my kitchen. It turned out better than I could have imagined it would! On top of being a cabinet making artist/genius, Gabe is also easy to work with, super reliable and generally a great guy. I highly recommend hiring him, you won't regret it!

We loved working with Gabe on our kitchen renovation! The cabinets he built and installed for us are exactly what we wanted and more! We love them and couldn't be happier. They are both functional and beautiful. On top of that, Gabe was communicative, detailed, friendly, and reliable! We would absolutely work with Gabe again, if we had another kitchen to remodel.

We hired Gabe to build a custom media cabinet and we could not be more pleased with the final product. He gave us a first rate piece of furniture that is stunning to look at inside and out and was easy to work with and quick to respond to any questions, I would use him again in a second and only wish we had more work for him to do. Thanks Gabe!

Gabe designed and build the cabinetry, shelving and a sliding door for the kitchen of a home remodel that I designed in San Francisco. During the design process, and into construction, Gabe was conscious and respectful of the overall design intent and continued to give good feedback on how the cabinetry would support the needs of the client functionally and aesthetically. Philosophically, Gabe and the client agreed to prioritize bamboo as a rapidly renewable resource, and the execution of all the millwork was detailed to showcase this decision in attractive ways. The finished product was absolutely beautiful; the client was impressed, and I have continued to recommend Gabriel Conen Cabinetry for many other jobs that I am working on.

I *LOVE* my kitchen and it would never have been as wonderful as it is to work in if it weren't for Gabe. I think I had an idea of the cooking experience I wanted and how I wanted my kitchen to look, but I really overestimated my own ability to turn that idea into reality in terms of kitchen design. Gabe asked all the right questions, he was patient, and I now have exactly what I was hoping for. Rather than focus on the whole, here are a few examples of really great things about the experience: (1) Early on it was clear that we needed a designer to help us formulate our ideas. Gabe introduced us to a designer he worked with and stayed involved throughout the process. (2) Our cabinets are really beautiful. They open and close smoothly, all the drawers slide smoothly and almost silently, etc. Every detail works well! (3) Because of our limited counter space, we wanted an "appliance garage". Gabe worked with us to provide exactly what we hoped for in a really constrained space. He made a lot of effort to find exactly the right door, etc., so that it would work well and be compact. (4) Gabe made us some beautiful countertops. We oil them once a month and they are both beautiful and functional. (5) Gabe is just generally incredibly nice, smart and genuine. There were a lot of people working on our tiny kitchen space, and he did everything he could to make the experience calm and easy. I highly recommend him!

Gabe made a set of beautiful cabinets for an alcove in our master bedroom. His work is of the highest quality with great attention to detail! Gabe helped me and worked with me in planning the cabinets, offering valuable suggestions and options with price variations. Therefore, so we got the perfect cabinets with self-closing drawers and doors for the space (creating cabinets that fit into an alcove required precision). He also provided options for cedar lined drawers from one of his vendors at cost which was a valuable saving. Beautiful, top quality cabinets built on-time at a very fair price from someone who obviously takes pride in his work and is very pleasurable to work with. What more can you ask! He gets my highest recommendation and future business too. For perspective, I am now retired but ran a remodeling construction business for years depending on reliable quality subs - Gabe Conan would be high on my vendor list.

Gabe built the bamboo cabinets for our kitchen remodel, and they are perfect! Not only did he work with us diligently throughout the planning and design process--helping us pick storage features that we didn't even know existed--he went above and beyond in the material selection process, walking us through the wood supplier's inventory to choose the best pieces with matching grain. Our cabinets are so beautiful: the color is consistent throughout (and there is a lot of variation with bamboo), and the grain pattern is clean and even. They are exactly what we dreamed of when we embarked on the project. His scheduling and delivery fit the timeline perfectly, too. We definitely felt he made our cabinets a priority, and he provided updates as they came along, too. We even visited his shop to see our cabinets in progress, once. In every way, Gabe's work was exceptionally professional. We're very happy with our new kitchen, and grateful to Gabe for helping make our dream house a reality.
