“Their work is great! They deliver what they promise and the team and contractors worked very hard and quickly to make my kitchen remodel as smooth as possible. It was a pleasure working with them.”

“I had living room, dining room and kitchen totally remodeled. I have very limited space and Doreen was able to get every last inch for me. She worked with the contractor seamlessly as if they were a team. I am so pleased in having her as my designer. She was able to get more storage and space in my kitchen then I ever thought possible. I even still have a few sheves still empty. She understood my cost constraints and still made my house look like a million bucks. Words used by my friends after seeing the remodel are incredible, awesome, beautiful, unbelieveable, and stunning.”

“Hi Love working with Lori. I had a remodel done for my kitchen and bathroom and Lori was very helpful in choosing the right colors to match and everything to coordinate.

Lori is very talented and listens to her clients.”

“I’ve had the pleasure of working with Holly Stosic at our homes in Manhattan Beach and in Arizona. The MB house remodel was a galley Kitchen and three bathrooms. The kitchen was orginally very dark and confining. We have a vaulted ceiling. Holly suggested putting in windows above the cabinets, so we wouldn’t lose storage. The outcome was beautiful and it brings in so much natural light. The cabinets are a soft gray (almost white) very coastal looking. The laundry was adjacent to the kitchen and it is all enclosed in cabinetry, so it looks like part of the kitchen. Holly put in a gray cabinet/pantry that looks like a piece of furniture. She added quartz counter tops and blue iridescent Sonoma tile. Holly suggested incorporating rustic wood shelves and a beautiful butcher block top of our adjacent bar area. In kid’s Jack and Jill suite we used Walker Zanger white crackle tile. It had so many great different pieces and allows for accessorizing as our girls grow-up. Going with the coastal theme of the house, we used a Carrera marble looking Caesarstone on the counters. All of our vanities were raised, as we are a very tall family. Holly didn’t miss a beat and she even fed our pets while we were on vacation. Our bathroom was also Walker Zanger tile, an off-white tile with soft green accent tiles. The cabinets are an off-white called linen. The powder room has a bold patterned tile on the floor and a porcelain vanity. The whole family loves the house so much. Recently, we purchased a home in the desert. Holly has such incredible listening skills. She makes the project fun and I just felt so confidant. Even when things go wrong, she is right there with a solution. I love that she doesn’t make excuses. Her team is incredible. We’re in the planning stages for our desert house, which will be very modern. I highly recommend La Costa Cabinets & Design.”

“Alice was a pleasure to work with. She is very professional and truly cares about the project. It was refreshing to have someone that knowledgeable but also very nice and open to ideas.”

““They just don’t build ‘em like they used to.” And that applies to kitchen cabinets as well! I am currently building a new house from scratch, and rather than spend a small fortune on medium or low quality newly-manufactured goods from a large box store or discount house, I wanted quality goods at an affordable price. Fortunately, I found ReFind Kitchens! David has almost as good an eye for quality as I do. Were it not for him, the Youngstown-brand all-steel Mid-Century kitchen cabinets that are now mine would have been tragically rusting away in a landfill somewhere! The cabinets may be over 60 years old, but the mere fact that they were still in use as recently as a few moths ago is proof that they are durable and of quality construction. David and Juliann are clearly very careful when selecting their inventory! Just as importantly, theirs is a very “green” eco-friendly business. In building my house, I want to use as many “re-purposed” elements as possible. In the kitchen, this includes recycled appliances that have been refurbished to adapt them to modern energy needs. So the re-purposed Youngstown metal cabinets will be in good company with my 1953 Kelvinator Foodarama refrigerator and my 1957 O’Keefe & Merritt gas stove! My kitchen will look like something from a 1950s issue of Architectural Digest but still be 100% functional. Too often, being eco-friendly means paying a high premium. But ReFind offers quality “green” products at a very affordable price. In fact, ReFind made the Youngstown cabinets available for far less than I would have paid at a warehouse store for cabinets of similar high quality. Most of all, David is "old school" customer service at its best. He went the extra mile to help me find someone local in San Diego to refinish the cabinets (I am in Palm Springs ... no one here could/would touch them). He even helped me disassemble them and transport them to the powder coater (including loading and unloading). I am always bemoaning how modern businesses not to care about customer satisfaction. David is "old school"! Outstanding customer service!”

“We were fortunate to work with Marge twice. She did an incredible job designing our new kitchen in 2012, which we adore. She had a tough timeline as we needed it completed in record time, prior to our daughter's wedding. She came through on her commitments and our guests were welcomed in our beautiful new kitchen. We hired her again in 2013 for our bathrooms and laundry room and again, she exceeded our expectation with the design and quality of the cabinetry. My husband and I would recommend her highly, she listens and she has a great eye for style and detail. She is a true professional.”

“Susan did the design work for our entire kitchen remodel. She helped us update the layout, select the cabinet finish and hardware, the flooring, the backsplash layout and design, the lighting, and the wall and trip paint colors. Susan was very responsive and helped us to consider the options very completely. She answered questions quickly. She explained the cost impacts of different decisions. Her personality and style meshed beautifully with ours. We highly recommend that you hire Susan for your next remodel design.”
