Paul Lauguico Cabinetry

We are very pleased with the end results. Our kitchen turned out like something you would see in a magazine. One of our friends who visited a $ 15M home in the Pasadena showcase said they had a very similar kitchen but ours was way better. They customized every single detail down to copying an antique finish on our island that I saw in a magazine. And for the couple of our unusual requests, which were a first time for them, they even brought in a specialist to make sure it would get done right. The colors and finish turned out amazing. Like any remodel, there are usually some challenges or problems along the way, of which we had many. Many of our walls/​floors were not straight (by a lot) and there were a few other surprises as well, but to no fault of Paul’s. Paul always stepped up to the plate to make sure it was done right, even if they had to redo something. If anything wasn’t right, Paul always took responsibility and fixed the problem. He wanted to be proud of his work and I have to say this was a masterpiece kitchen.
Now for some background: We started our initial design and getting estimates about 8 months prior to hiring Paul’s company. We almost signed two other contracts. First, for a Kraftmaid Kitchen (i.e. Home Depot) and after than with a custom cabinet maker who had great reviews on Angieslist. In both cases it was the day we were supposed to sign the contract, but something was holding us back. We did a tremendous amount of investigation and normally wouldn’t even consider someone who didn’t have enough reviews. It was a Sunday afternoon of desperation as the clock was ticking and we were about to sign a contract we didn’t totally feel good about (and even less expensive than Paul). We had seriously researched many (I mean many) other vendors in depth, but there was always something. that Sunday I three other cabinet makers surprisingly answered the phone and we quickly researched all three. When we met with Paul in his shop we saw how they build their cabinets that was it. He rendered our design almost immediately gave us an estimate we were very please with. A few days later we signed the contract.
We would definitely recommend Paul Lauguico to others. He has a lot of integrity and does not try to nickel and dime you to death like some companies. His price and quality was far better than any of the Home Depot or Lowes semi custom cabinets.

Paul was very professional and always picked the phone when we needed him. We had Paul complete our living room with a floor to ceiling entertainment center. It came out amazing and was better than what we imagined.

We recently remodeled our kitchen and used Paul’s company. He completely exceeded our expectations. He was able to give us the perfect cabinet design and stain color we wanted. He also created distressed beams throughout our kitchen and living room. I showed him a photo of what I wanted and he delivered and end result even better than the photo. Finally we had them create a new laundry room for us and as with the kitchen, we are very happy. Paul and his team are very reliable, professional and a company we would use again and again. If you are looking to remodel your kitchen, add amazing beams, or have someone design beautiful cabinetry in any room of your house, we would strongly recommend that you use Paul.

We recently moved & wanted to make our home more modern & contemporary. we wanted to have custom built ins in the living room & kitchen, closets in all 3 bedrooms, cabinets in garage, custom island in kitchen, and window casings placed throughout. We interviewed and compared 4 contractors and Paul Lauguico was by far the most honest, comparable prices, and straight forward of them all. Looking through Paul’s website & seeing his great work & all the rave reviews, we decided to move forward with our long list of project with him & his crew. The end results are just phenomenal! Way better than what we had in mind & definitely way better than the magazine pictures we showed. Paul, really listened to our ideas and our needs. Paul & his crew were professional & efficient every time they were in our home working. Crazy to say, but this renovation was stress free & fun. Thanks again Paul & crew!

Thank you, fellow Unilocalers, for recommending Paul Lauguico Cabinetry!
Paul and his team came in and totally fixed a job that another «contractor» had totally botched, which we were having a hard time finding anyone with the skills and courage to fix. Our kitchen was gutted, with half a kitchen full of partly done cabinets, half of a floor, half of a paint job and we were a month past our timeline and way over budget.
Enter Paul.
Paul assessed the situation, gave us an extremely reasonable price to fix the cabinets and set to work right away. Although he does custom work, we needed more pieces of cabinetry for our kitchen, so Paul opened an account at the place we had gotten our cabinets originally and got all the necessary pieces to finish it out. I was impressed with his professionalism in dealing with the cabinet company for me, the fact that his licensing and paperwork were so organized that he was able to get the account set up with quick notice, and the fact that he just made it happen. In less than a week.
The work turned out amazing.
Paul also worked with the tile setter we had subcontracted to solve a tile issue we were having (the lot on the tiles to finish out the floor was a sliver too big to lay next to the old tiles, yet too small to get an even cut). So there was another problem Paul solved, besides just the cabinetry.
Then, he hooked us up with a granite fabricator and voila, beautiful counters. Thanks again, Paul.
Oh, and if we call he will send someone to fix the crown moulding and baseboards that the other guy did not.
So, after being taking advantage of by two other «contractors» who did not do their job but got paid for calling subpar subcontractors, Paul comes to do our cabinets, charges a very reasonable price, and ends up doing the work that a full on contractor is supposed to do: coordinating the job so that all goes smoothly, problem solving as things come up, working with the subs, and making things easier for us as the homeowner.
Did I mention the cabinets are beautiful!!!
I feel like we went from the Money Pit, to being on an episode of «Holmes makes it Right».
I was seriously worried by the level of your work that your prices would be out of our budget, but you were beyond reasonable. Oh, the money we would have saved to have done it right and gone with you in the beginning. Everything completed on time and right on budget.
Thanks, Paul! Your cabinets make us smile. I know I had sworn off contractors, but you changed my opinion. Will you be our contractor for our first real estate flip? If you are not snatched up by then, as like, a project coordinator for some huge corporate job? Your professionalism and communication skills are boundless.
And the cabinets. The mess. Now flawless!
Thank you Unilocalers. You did us a solid on this one.

After performing hours of searches on the internet and looking at home remodel magazines, I came across Paul Lauguico Cabinetry on-​line. I couldn’t be happier with my cabinet Paul custom made for me. It is extremely well built. He provided excellent customer service. I also love my stain, which was a huge factor for me.
