Zeffery’s Cabinets

We recently had Jim/​team update all of the cabinets in our home, and we couldn’t be happier. The team was professional and courteous. They even touched up a few other areas that were not a part of the work order, at no additional charge. Fantastic workmanship, and easy to do business with. We will absolutely use Jim and Zeffery’s again!

Jim has remodeled or built most of our home. He designed and installed custom cabinets and shelves for our son’s bedroom, a custom desk for our daughter, numerous entertainment centers and completely remodeled our kitchen. The reason we keep coming back to Jim is that the quality of his work and, more importantly, his work ethic, are consistently excellent. Jim does beautiful work at a fair price, he is meticulous, thoughtful and creative and always responsive to our needs and concerns. Jim stands behind his work and is a true professional — difficult to find in his industry. We highly recommend Jim and Zeffery’s Cabinets without reservation and we are confident that anyone who works with him will have the same excellent experience that we’ve enjoyed for many years working with Jim.

Zefferys Cabinetry drew up a concept of what we imagined and his shop came through with this gorgeous piece of furniture.

Zefferys Cabinetry built us a custom library for our downstairs, then we hired them again to be a custom office with cabinets, display cases and custom lighting. They did a great job. They are very detailed, professional and finished on time. I would highly recommend this company to anyone that is serious about a professional result. Jim, the owner, is very professional and is a pleasure to work with. He is willing to fix anything and do the job to your satisfaction.

We are in the process of opening a small craft winery in Crestline. I designed a tasting room and serving bar. I wanted the finished bar to have a fine finish and great craftsmanship in it’s execution. I called several cabinet makers to meet with them and for pricing. Jim Zeffrey met with me and understood the level of quality I needed and provided a very reasonable estimate. Even though I had already provided detailed plans, he provided me with shop drawings to verify my intent and insure that the final product met our needs and addressed the subtle challenges of the room that I hadn’t considered.
I would highly recommend Jim and his company.

We were recommended to Jim Zeffery by a friend and we hired him to upgrade our old out of date kitchen in our condo. It is a small space, with not much opportunity to expand, but Jim helped us out and made some recommendations, which not only kept our costs in-​line, but also included some interesting features to help us expand our storage. Now, not only is our new kitchen beautiful… it is functional, and we are very satisfied with his service. His team was professional and organized. And they cleaned up nicely after the work was done.
We will certainly consider to hire Jim again in the future when we upgrade to our next bigger home.

We highly recommend Black Coffee Cabinets. They have completed a number of projects for us without issue. We have found the business owner (Jim Zefferies) to be a man of integrity. He & his crews set the bar high with their level of craftsmanship, creativity & dependability.

I would like to highly recommend Jim Zeffrey of Black Coffee Cabinets. Jim has done several projects for us. In 2000 he designed and built 3 beautiful maple built cabinets for our new home. In 2012, we had a pipe burst behind a wall that destroyed the 8 foot lighted cabinet Jim had built. We were adamant with insurance that the rebuilt cabinet must be a perfect match to the other two cabinets in the room, and they agreed being unable to find a carpenter to duplicate such a piece of furniture. We contacted Jim and he immediately stepped and removed the large one piece cabinet and returned it to his workshop. He was able to save all the drawers, lighting and glass shelves when rebuilding the cabinet. The re-​staining of the box was beautiful and the new cabinet was a seamless replacement.
Jim’s work is not only highly detailed and craftsman specific, but he’s also a very professional contractor to do business with, timely response and turnover time, and his end product is always dependably exact. A very welcome change! I’m sure you will be as pleased as we have been!

We received a call from Jim very promptly after submitting a request on Thumbtack. He was very thorough in regards to the work he would do to help us with our crown moulding installation (including a fairly tricky masonry wall that is far from ideal or square). I had a very good feeling after speaking with Jim over the phone. He came to inspect the home before providing an estimate, and his estimate was not at all out of line with what we expected. So we felt very comfortable with our decision to hire Jim.
Of course, we wanted to know what kind of craftsmanship he commands. He showed multiple pictures in his portfolio that illustrate his vast talents. Again, this helped make the decision easier to move forward and schedule the 2-​day job. Jim and Brian came on schedule each day (despite the long drive to Orange County), worked very efficiently, were respectful of our furniture and home, and left the home in relatively clean condition (there will always be some dust/​mess).
Most importantly, the work was so wonderful that we decided to have them expand the scope to include our whole house! They still got it done, with the two additional rooms, within the original 2-​day schedule… and that included another troublesome masonry wall.
In the end, we are very pleased with the work and professionalism of Jim and his staff, Brian.
We would highly recommend Jim to friends and family and will be hiring him for future woodworking projects!

Jim was first utilized to refloor our living room and retile our front entry way. The result was quite pleasing and added a fresh new look to our home. We were impressed with Jim“s professionalism, his ability to stick to a time schedule and give us an accurate estimate of cost. We were so impressed that we asked Jim to remodel our son’s home, as it was in need of major renovation from cabinet workt, inside and outside painting, electrical problems and plumbing issues. The result was a great job that our son and his family very much appreciated. Again, the professionalism and great work ethic are impressive. We would recommend Jim to anyone.

We had a project for a built in custom entertainment center that two previous contractors could not complete. We contacted Jim to see if he could fix the issues and complete the project to our specification.
The project required detailed wood and metal finish precision. Jim came in and fixed all of the issues, and delivered an outstanding, quality work product. It is the focal point in our living room, and it beautifully compliments the space. Excellent work!
We highly recommend Black Coffee Cabinets to friends and family.

I hired Jim Zeffreys and Black Coffee Cabinets to do multiple cabinet work all thru out my house. Not only were they on time ans professional but their work was better than any other cabinet designer out there. The designs I chose were not standard nor were the colors and I was pleased at how I was accomodated for what I wanted. The workers were very respectful of my house and cleaned up when finished. I must say if your looking for cabinetry or wood work thos company is a MUST. Thank you Jim and your team for everything you did! We definately look forward to working with you again in the near future!
