"Hello, My name is Phil Carr-Jones, I am reviewing my experience of working with and building my own kitchen, using cabinets and doors from Arkansas Wood Door. While I am an Episcopal Priest, it turns out I get to do a lot of things they don't teach you in seminary. Over the years, I have had to get fairly skilled in all the trades, including, no surprise, carpentry. But I am by no means an expert. For instance, I employed a retired carpenter to help out with the crown molding and other trim. Apart from that though, this is all my and my wife's work. So let me state up front, Arkansas Wood Doors is the go to place for the DIY’er who is thinking of remodeling their own kitchen. Here's why: I searched the web for months, literally doing comparisons and research on flat pack rta cabinets. I went to the big box store for a design and pricing in their three lines of cabinets, and I went in for a consult with a small custom shop in my area. Here's what I found. 99 outof 100 rta cabinet companies have their product made in china which means the standards for formaldehyde are going to be as fishy as they smell, plus you can only get cabinets in fixed sizes so if you looking to eeck out every last inch of space you're going to lose a lot and you'll be using a lot of filler strips wasting what could have been useful storage. If you want to go custom, then you only have less than a handful of online options, companies that will make to order in any dimension. For instance, I only wanted an 8 inches deep spice cabinet to allow for greater working room over the counter. My wife and I are pretty serious about cooking from pastries to mains and sides. We want a very serious kitchen. Plus, I'll tall so I needed the room. In any case, if you want something custom your choices online are limited. The big box stores don't really do custom and are just as limited in their options as are the online rta places. Most online rtas offer far cheaply made boxes with construction methods less sturdy. I have found that if I buy cheap, I shouldnt expect my kitchen to hold up past a few years. The finish will fade. The drawers will warp. The joints will open up. The big box stores basically offer the same thing, too. When I go to a big box store to buy something, I do it knowing I probably willl get a year out of it, whether that’s a lawn chair of a power tool. I mean when was the last time you regretting spending too much money on a better grade of power tool? So if you want quality, a better and safer grade building material and much wider choices in sizing then your basically down to three or four options. I went with Arkansas Wood Door and am completely pleased and impressed by the experience. Now I could have spent twice what I did and gone to a small custom shop and gotten the same thing, but I am in to saving money and frankly I enjoy the challenge. AWD worked with me directly. Working up the order and getting the plan for each box just right. If you have never designed and built a kitchen before, there are plenty of tips and guidance on the web and I recommend you heartily research all of the aspects and complications involved. I hit a couple of unexpected bumps. But more about that below. So do your research. For instance you can save a lot of money by building the plinths yourself and only order squared off boxes without the toe kick. By making the platform on which you place the lower cabinets first, you can get that plumb and level, so throwing up the boxes is a breeze. And again, the cabinets are also less expense, a complete all around win. AWD uses an easy system for matching up box parts so assembly was easy. No special tools required. Given the many parts and I used a mix of frameless and face framed cabinets, there was a moment or two when in amongst all the materials I got nervous about having everything I needed, but low and behold, all was right there in the end. I also recommend the concept from French cooking "mis en place" that is have all your ingredients in place and all your tools where you need them before starting out. Also, it was a lot easier to work with my wife than doing it alone, but I did a few by myself and so if that is your only option than you should have no problem. I've assembled a lot of cheaper Swedish flat packed furniture in my day, and the quality and sturdiness of AWD leaves no doubt about how long these will last. Just rock solid. Great thing about AWD is the cost to quality ratio. Cant beat it. Which also means if you make a mistake the replacement is so reasonable it becomes not big deal. I mis-measured one box and so I needed to order the right size. Worked out fine, but that was because AWD had an incredibly fast turn around. The other few reliable companies are several weeks to months. And these other places are crazy expensive. And in truth, the other companies are a complete rip off on trim and accessories. AWD pricing was so amenable that my mistakes cost me so little in comparison with what I was saving. So there's a built in confidence for the first timer. Also AWD made one mistake on the placement of a hinge in two doors. They immediately and without question remade them and sent them out in under ten days. You just can't get that service anywhere in the custom cabinet world. It was so affordable I upgraded on one side to black walnut. Trying doing that at the other quality shops. The quality of the roll out drawers and top drawer boxes is superb and the hinges and under-mount sliders are top grade excellent. The hardware was the easiest part frankly. Their system, for lining up the hardware is just so easy. Drill driver is all you need as the placement is already leveled for you. SO: high end quality custom built cabinets, superior custom support, fastest turnaround in the marketplace, most affordable pricing out there, excellent hardware, and oh yeah, I almost forget, color choices. They offer complete line of lacquer - just pick a SW color and they'll match it. SO completely and truly custom for a fraction of cost without sacrificing any quality. The Rev. Philip Carr-Jones"

"Performed multiple handyman projects and did a great job. They were very friendly and accommodated my schedule."

"It went really well.  I contacted them through their number on Angie's list and got a messaging service, which was a little strange at first.  However, I got a call back that day so it was totally fine.
Harold came by to give an estimate one evening and drew up the contract in real time.  We had received other bids from other top Angie's list companies of about $8-9.5K.  Harold said he had a crew ready to go for two days from then and he said it would be $6400 including installation of gym flooring.  He said we did not need a permit to do the work, which I did give me some concerns but I also trusted Angie's list reviews that these guys were really professional.  I signed the bid and paid half up front.
The only negative experience I had was that I ended up reaching out to Mike about whether we needed permits/being concerned about closeting the furnace without someone inspecting the airflow, etc.  He said they would send over a gas expert journeyman to check it out and that I would hear about scheduling soon.  I never heard anything after that and the project was done so fast that I never really followed up before it was done (which is a good thing that it was done so fast).  
During construction: The two gentleman that executed our project were both very nice.  I am bad with names, but they were great.  It was an out of the way basement room but they still cleaned up every day and put their tools away really neatly.  I was super impressed and so was my wife who was worried about dust/dirt with our baby.  A couple of issues came out of our quick turnaround on the project (meaning I hadn't drawn out what I wanted or written out specs) but they were always fixed VERY quickly.  They framed the door about 2 feet from where I wanted it and they moved it for just $75 in labor with no material cost - which i think is very fair since I didn't specify in writing where I wanted it.  I also gave them HDMI outlets so that I could hang a TV and they installed those at no additional costs, which was a great help to me.  The WHOLE project was done in 7-8 work days, which was fantastic.
Overall: We left the project thinking that these guys were great.  We recently had a less-than-grand experience with a large addition ($150K+) to our house using a Angie's List Service Award winner and these guys were much better.  I'm OCD so I tend to point out things not done very well (which irritated the other builder to death), but these guys did everything right the first time despite not having a lot of direction.  They just finished a couple days ago and I have already recommended them to two good friends, so I really do have a positive opinion of them."
