CONTRACTERS REFERRALS

As a licensed contractor I was skeptical of ordering material online and to a certain extent, site unseen. But after much research regarding quality and cost, as well Malcolm's prompt and professional service, I placed my cabinet order through Dunshee Supply. The cabinets arrived quickly, in perfect shape and look great installed. Compared to big box hardware stores these cabinets are higher quality and less expensive. I would recommend Malcolm and Dunshee Supply to anyone looking for a nice cabinet at a reasonable price.

I’m very happy with my cabinets. They are a very good cabinet, and Dunshee was very good to work with, especially Aleisha who was very competent and knowledgeable and made dealing with them, a pleasant experience. I’m a contractor and it was nice to be able to easily communicate my needs.

Also, I would recommend spending the extra $10.00 and get them pre-assembled. That way Dunshee can verify all the parts are there and nothing is damaged before you get it which will save time and inconvenience.

"The saying: 'You get what you pay for', is not true with Dunshee Bulders Supply. You get more than what you pay for, whether it is for kitchens, flooring, windows or just plain service."

"I have done business with Malcolm at Dunshee supply and the service has been excallent as well as the products and Price. Thanks to Malcolm I am able to compete in these very competetive and trying times. Good Job Malcolm and Thanks"

"They re-made a splash because it didn't meet their standards in regards to color match. They fabricated their own cover, completed the job and cleaned up every inch of their workspace.

These guys ROCK!"

"Just wanted to drop a line, to say thanks. The cabinets are beautiful. Unbelievable quality for the price. First words out of the owners mouth were: 'I want these in my house!' Thanks again and keep up the good work."

"I found my experience with Dunshee builders supply to be very professional. communication through, delivery on time and damage free. I promptly got my computer drawings. over all good service thank You for your consideration Higher Ground construction."

"I want to thank you for the wonderful job you did on our kitchen remodel at our vacation home in Hidden Valley Lake. The cabinets and countertops look so nice and they totally make the room. Everyone who comes to visit is extremely impressed by the appearance, and then they are blown away when I tell them about the price!

The other thing that I really appreciated was how you made the process so easy for me, from the initial ordering to the install and finally to the needed touch-ups. Being down here in San Rafael, I had to manage the job remotely, and you made that process go very smoothly by working so well together with my contractor. I didn’t even have to visit the home to make the order. You met my contractor and measured it out together with him and then provided me with a detailed layout from which we made several modifications before finalizing the order. Then whenever there were any questions/concerns during the install by the contractor, you really were responsive and accommodating in making it work out best for me.

It was nice having yours son’s company as a trusted resource for the granite install, so that I didn’t have to go out and try to find someone on my own. They did a flawless job for a good price, and again the coordination was seamless. As a general contractor myself and real estate investor, I know how much potential there is for conflict between sub-trades on a construction job, and you reduced that down below even my best case expectations.

You’ve got my business the next time I need cabinets and countertops, and I will not hesitate to recommend you to others."

"I own Wilder construction building since 1972, mainly in Cobb California I used to go to the bay area and get my cabinets and granite from the wholesale places, this saved me a pretty penny! have known Malcolm as a local builder for over a year , so we had some report when Malcolm at Dunshee builders supply approached me about supplying cabinets and granite to my jobs. I was a little skeptical that it would work for me, as I had my suppliers that were very cheap. What I didnt factor in at first was the savings in time and gas the formula went something like this I would go and arrange the lay out of the kitchen then another trip to pick it up and then one more trip to take care of the damaged or missing cabinets 3 days and lots of miles later I would have my kitchen in order. Now Malcolm comes to the job site lays out the kitchen for my approval, I sign the order and Dunshee delivers pad wrapped in a delivery truck . any issues are taken care of promptly. This represents a tremendous savings of time and effort , for me the connivance actually became more important then the savings, though I also saved money. Plus its nice to have someone with experience to look at the job with me. "

"We have been working with Dunshee builders for awhile now. We have received high grade cabinets that our customers and ourselves are very happy with. Any problems that have arisen were promptly resolved in a timely fashion and with excellent customer service. Malcolm goes to great lengths to ensure that his services are of the highest quality, taking the time to listen to the customer and go out of his way to meet every need. We would definitely refer him to customers and friends again and again."

"I found Malcolm through another contractor in Lake County who spoke well of him and his products. He probably saved me 20%, maybe more. There was no particle board. It was all wood. That was a major plus. I liked the hardware and the lower tracks. I'd definitely use him again."

"Malcolm is on top of his game. He's kind, diligent, and prompt. He delivered the cabinets when he said he would. We had a slight problem with the medicine cabinet that he took care of right away. I've recommended him to others."

"The cabinets were less expensive by far. They're good quality cabinets and we're happy with them."

"General contractor , Builder for 65 years Pretty good results with Dunshee builders supply "If you need any more information just ask the old Man"

"I build houses here in Lake County. I generally go to Malcolm Dunshee when I need nice cabinets and granite for my kitchens. I also get my windows and sliders from him. His connections enable him somehow to deliver his merchandise at the best price (truly). And the guy puts out when it comes to follow-up; if I need some extra hinges or a slightly darker shade of medicine cabinet, he will get right on it.The man is determined to please and his cabinets are elegant and his windows (by Mercer) move with a feather touch. It is nice for me to know that the most important parts of my houses are handled. "

I’m very happy with my cabinets from Dunshee Supply, everyone there was easy to work with and with all the changes I made, Aleisha has the patience of a saint! The cabinets came assembled, stained and finished. They were easy to install, just attach to the wall, level them and you’re done, it’s simple. The price was excellent.

I got top quality cabinets for about 1/3 of the price I would have had to pay at Home Depot or Lowe’s and that doesn’t include the cost of finishing them. That would have been about $500.00-600.00 more! I’ll be buying more for the rest of the house soon.

Jeremy,

They were excellent the whole process was wonderful patient and understanding.

We are kind of perfectionists and they were very efficient sending over the plans and making all the
changes we requested, to meet our needs.They were also very flexible and offered to delay shipment and combine with another order to save delivery costs.

The cabinets were called “construction grade” but we felt they were not like most construction grades. We could really feel the difference the way the drawers pulled out. Not stiff but not loose either with a nice tension and felt solid even with fully extended they feel strong and supported. They also sent crown moldings, and trim and nothing was missing.

We are considering doing our bathroom as well and will be going back to Dunshee for the cabinets.

I did a lot of looking around at Home Depot and Lowe’s and the quality and price of these cabinets can’t be beat. The service was A-1 top notch. Malcolm was awesome, a great guy and easy to work with. Very friendly and professional and puts the customer first. Everyone that sees my kitchen can’t believe what I got for the money. I am very pleased with them and have referred several people including friends and family.

Jean-Marc

Overall, I am very pleased with my cabinets and the service. After comparisons, I found that they are a good value and quality cabinets and saved me money.

I am very happy with my new kitchen cabinets. The quality and price were great and Malcom was very helpful. I would definitely recommend to anyone who wants beautiful cabinets and a good price.

Emilee and Eric

We are pretty particular and Dunshee did a great job working with us to meet our needs.

We got fast service and Malcolm was nice to work with. The cabinets are good quality and they were at a really good price. We recommend them to all our friends.

Dunshee Builder Supply was very nice to work with. Aleisha came up with a great design. I appreciated the good communication as well as the quality of the cabinets I looked around and the cabinets from Dunshee Builder Supply were the best value I found. I am a satisfied customer.

Jill Scott

Dunshee was awesome to work with. From the back and forth communications for the layout with Aleisha to a special delivery on a Sunday, everyone was great to work with. We appreciate the customer service as they went above and beyond the normal service provided by most companies. You would not get this kind of service from the retail chain stores or even most contractors. The price was the determining factor for us and we are also very pleased with the quality which is better than most of the construction grade cabinets on the market.

Dawn Gibson

Our cabinets are great and love them! Everyone at Dunshee’s were very helpful and friendly. The service was fast and they provided good schematics to work with so I had no questions.

Also, the price was fabulous and I have told quite a few of my friends and family about them. I am so glad that I found Dunshee Builders Supply.

Gale and Arthur Cratty

I bought the cabinets after shopping around for the price and quality as well as their beauty. The service was fast and courteous. “Word of mouth” is a great referral and that’s how I found them. I’d buy from Dunshee again.

I am very pleased with the excellent service and the quality of the cabinets. Dunshee was very easy to work with, customized my order and delivered quickly as promised.

When I ordered the cabinets from your company for our rental, I had only seen the images on the internet and they looked nice. When they were delivered, I was totally blown away! They are absolutely stunning -- and these were your least expensive cabinets! Dealing with you and your company has been a real pleasure. Both you and your staff are so responsive and helpful, and the fact that I could order them and have them delivered from California to Nevada, fully constructed, in about 10 days time is totally amazing.

We have been remodeling a rental from top to bottom, and the first thing I tell my friends is 'You have to see the kitchen!' The price was so much less than even the low-end cabinets at places like Lowe's and Ikea, and I know for a fact that the quality is superior -- solid wood. Even our carpenter, who has been in the building industry for many years, is totally impressed with the quality. And they are absolutely accurate to size.

Thank you so much. I just hope I get to do my own kitchen next.

Sincerely,
Tova Roseman

Often you hear the saying "you get what you pay for". While planning our kitchen remodel and pricing out cabinets we considered Malcolm's cabinets but were thinking we should get more expensive ones if we wanted quality.

After much research, we came back to Malcolm's product line because we discovered that they were FAR less expensive without compromising on quality! So we ended up choosing his Maple line of cabinets. Our kitchen looks fabulous! On top of that, his service was second to none.

Any issues or questions we had during the project were met with immediate helpfulness. How often can you find the BEST price and at the same time the BEST service? It's practically unheard of these days.

We are very happy with our kitchen remodel. In this case, the saying should be "you get far more than you pay for".

Hi Malcolm, just wanted to let you know that I'm very pleased with my new Kitchen! The Cabinets turned out just beautiful.

You know I wasn't sure if I wanted the Oak or Cherry Wood, but after seeing how great the Cherry Wood turned out, I couldn't be happier. You were very quick to deliver them, and any problem we had was quickly taken care of.

The price was wonderful! At least $2500.00 cheaper than our lowest bid. Thanks again, and have a Happy Thanksgiving and Happy Christmas!

"I checked out ready made cabinets at both of the large home stores near my house, but I didn’t like the quality of the cabinet. I checked out custom made cabinets, the
quality was there but they were just too darned expensive.

I checked out internet sites for kitchen cabinets and found completely laminated cabinets for the same price as the home stores. I checked out craigslist and found an ad for Dunshee Builders Supply, they had solid wood front cabinets with dove tail joints and full pull out drawers for less than the home stores cabinets. Sounded too good to be true.

I was skeptical about buying kitchen cabinets off of craigslist, sight unseen. So I checked out Dunshee’s references, and took a leap of faith (they couldn’t be any worse than the home stores). I e-mailed them the layout I had done on paper, Malcolm made
suggestions on cabinets, which worked better in my layout, a couple of modifications and e-mails of layout illustrations back and forth and then I ordered the cabinets.

The new cabinets were delivered to the house 8 days later. As they were unpacked from the truck we caught a glimpse of the quality of the cabinets, my installer was impressed.

The following day we put the cabinets in, installation went great. The only negative thing was the color of the end side of the cabinets were lighter than the fronts, nothing that a can of wood finish and an hour of time couldn’t fix. Or purchasing fake fronts would also fix the problem but at a higher cost.

Regardless, these cabinets are the BEST I have found for the PRICE. I have attached photos of the finished kitchen, I hope he can post them. I would purchase cabinets from Dunshee Builders Supply again."

"I would like to express my thanks to Dunshee Builders Supply for the new kitchen cabinets. Malcolm was able to make my dream kitchen a reality!

It was refreshing to work with him on cabinet selection and layout after examining cabinet shapes at the big Box stores. Given the styles, flexibility and beauty of the cabinets Malcolm offered, Dunshee Builders Supply was the clear choice for me.

Malcolm’s professionalism, guidance and design talents went well beyond my expectations, bringing to life my new kitchen. He was able to draw on a deep well of knowledge given his many years of experience in the construction industry. Therefore, his suggestions and guidance on everything from granite countertops, tile, cabinets and stainless steel sinks were a great help.

Due to Malcolm’s positive attitude and scheduling skills the kitchen project progressed very smoothly. The cabinets were delivered and installed on time and the granite counter tops came shortly afterwards. The combination of solid wood cabinets and granite countertops formed a beautiful and stylish kitchen that was within my budget. My new kitchen was functional, well laid out and the focal point for the entire house.

The cabinet quality is very high with the fit and finish being standouts in their class. I would wholeheartedly recommend Dunshee Builders Supply for your choice in new cabinets."

"Dunshee Builders Supply is "Johnny on the spot"! Even goes the extra mile when you get a little confused in what you want. Malcome is very willing to help you when and where you need it. Excellent quality for reasonable cost. We sold a house in three weeks. I know the quality of the cabinets helped to do that!!"

"We are very happy with our cabinets. The quality and style meet our expectations. We really appreciate the pull out shelves on the bottom cabinets and the quality of the hardware on the drawers and doors. Working with Malcolm was great. He was helpful in designing the kitchen cabinet layout and showing us all of our options. He was great from the first phone call all the way to delivery of the cabinets!"

"Dunshee Supply was a pleasure to work with. They provided a superior product at a very reasonable price, and were willing to work with me to create the right cabinet design for the space ."

"I am writing this letter in support of Malcolm Dunshee, of Dunshee Builders Supply. Recently, I was in the middle of a kitchen remodel, and found myself in need of new cabinets. I priced these cabinets at several local businesses, as well as some larger stores. I became frustrated over the expensive prices and the tendency for the larger “Big Box” stores, such as Home Depot, etc., to sell me more than I wanted, and to push the high end products (many of which were not solid wood, but a particle type material.)

Thankfully, by chance my father had a listing of Malcolm’s cabinet styles and stain choices, many of which were perfect for our needs. The prices were very reasonable; Malcolm was refreshingly straightforward and there were no hidden costs or extra charges. We sent him our choices, and within a week, our cabinets were ready.

Our only problem was geographical---Malcolm was over three hours away, so shipping could have been an issue. No worries! Malcolm charged us an honest fee, and delivered our cabinets, wrapped completely--safe and sound. At a price which was $1700.00 less than the lowest price we found at the other establishments. These were solid wood cabinets, beautifully stained, fully assembled with pull out drawers, high end handles and all we needed.

I highly recommend Malcolm Dunshee and plan to do business with him again in the future. We have had nothing but “Ooohs and Aaaahs” and compliments on our cabinets. I am sure you will find him an honest, reliable, hard working gentleman with a cheerful, positive nature who will provide you with a great product at a reasonable price.

Sincerely yours,"

"I live in Kauai Hi. And work as a consultant in telecommunications. I debated whether remodeling the kitchen in my home was cost effective, I asked around for cabinets, as it happened my son Able who lives in Lake county California, knows Malcolm the owner of Dunshee Builders Supply. Able informed me the cabinets are of good quality, and very low priced. I emailed Malcolm and he got back to me. He started by doing a computer lay out of the kitchen and then costing out the kitchen. When I got the quote for the cabinets it was so low, I was a little worried at first( "you get what you pay for"), but I decided to go ahead( on Able's recommendation) and gave my credit card to Malcolm, the cabinets sure enough arrived promptly, there was some damage caused by the freight forwarder. But Malcolm helped me to take care of that very quickly. I really like my kitchen ,It looks great! Please note my house is in the Million dollar plus range. I'm happy to recommend Dunshee Builders Supply. "

"Thank you for the amazing cabinets that were delivered to our home in such good condition! We are both thrilled with the layout you designed for us and the customer service we received! The cabinets look rich and expensive although we both know what a great value they were. And the men who came to install the granite countertops were the BEST! They installed the granite with no problems in one day and even cleaned up! After building a house and dealing with so many contractors, it was so nice to have such an easy finish toward the end of construction. The cabinets came when you said they would and, although, Pat installed them himself after dealing with the granite contractors, I am sure you would have recommended the best. We want to thank you personally for such a fantastic job; from order to delivery, and for going the extra mile for us.

Sincerely, "

"The service was excellent. He came out the same day we called. He held onto the cabinets until we were ready for them, which we appreciated. He's a really good businessman. He called back to check on things. He was on top of every issue. The price we got on the cabinets was excellent."

"He was fast and delivered to the house. He did measurements and helped us find the least expensive way to make our house work."

"I recently purchased a home and began the remodel process. The kitchen, of course, was the biggest project..

I priced kitchen cabinets at several local stores as well as Home Depot, and I began to wonder…… what did I get myself into?? I couldn't believe the high prices. I decided to take a chance with Craigslist, and I found an ad for Dunshee Builders Supply.

I must say, I was a little unsure of using someone I found on Craigslist…..especially someone from out of town. But, Malcolm was professional, helpful and courteous from the start. He reassured me that he was there to make sure my kitchen came out right…. And it did!

The prices of these cabinets just can't be beat, and I was very impressed with the quality too. They were better quality than the ones I had been shopping for, at the higher prices.

I made several changes throughout the process of deciding which cabinets were best for my needs, and Malcolm was there with me the whole way via email and phone communication. You wouldn't think that you could get such personal service through the computer and phone… but I did! And honestly, I couldn't have asked for anything more! This was one of the best customer service experiences I've had. Thanks, Malcolm!!"
