Who we are

A family-owned cabinetry company in Fresno, California.

California Cabinets is a family-owned, family-operated custom cabinetry, countertop and flooring company based in Fresno, California. The business is owned by Ken Brown, who personally designs every project the company takes on. Family operated means a dedicated team behind him — including his daughter Kaylin — handling specification, scheduling and client care.

The company operates a showroom at 7189 N Abby St in Fresno, where clients view cabinet door styles, finish samples, countertop slabs and flooring in person before committing to a design. California Cabinets serves homeowners throughout Fresno and the surrounding Central Valley of California, and has given new life to kitchens across the region for years.

Unlike a franchise or a large showroom with rotating sales staff, the person who quotes your project is the person who designs it and inspects it on completion.

What we do

Cabinets, countertops and flooring — under one roof.

California Cabinets' primary business category is custom cabinetry. The company also fabricates and installs countertops, supplies and installs flooring, performs tile work, and handles complete residential remodels as a single contractor.

Handling all three trades in-house is the company's main practical difference from most cabinet dealers in the Fresno area. Because cabinetry, surfaces and flooring are specified together and sequenced by one team, homeowners coordinate one schedule and one point of contact rather than three separate contractors.

Primary category

Custom cabinetry and cabinet installation for residential kitchens.

Secondary services

Countertop fabrication and installation, hardwood and tile flooring supply and installation, and full kitchen and whole-home remodeling.

Services

What California Cabinets builds

Custom Kitchen Cabinets

California Cabinets designs and installs custom and semi-custom kitchen cabinetry for homeowners throughout Fresno and Clovis. Projects range from complete kitchen remodels to replacement cabinetry and custom-built storage solutions. Door styles include full-overlay, inset and shaker profiles in painted, stained and natural wood finishes, with dovetail drawer boxes and soft-close hardware throughout. Islands, custom range hoods, pantry systems and integrated appliance panels are designed as part of the layout rather than added afterward.

Countertops and Surfaces

The company fabricates and installs granite, quartz and stone composite countertops, templated directly to the installed cabinetry rather than ordered from drawings. Clients select slab, edge profile and backsplash height in the showroom alongside the cabinet door sample, so surfaces and cabinetry are matched under the same lighting conditions.

Hardwood and Tile Flooring

California Cabinets is a hardwood flooring dealer and installer, supplying engineered and solid plank flooring, stone composite and waterproof plank, and tile for bathrooms, laundry rooms and entries. Flooring is selected against the cabinet finish before ordering to avoid the mismatch that commonly occurs when the two are bought from separate suppliers.

Wine Rooms and Bar Cabinetry

Custom wine storage built into staircases, glass-walled cellar rooms and butler's pantries, including angled bottle display, diamond bins, case storage and bar tops. These are built to the room's actual dimensions rather than assembled from catalog modules.

Outdoor Kitchens

Weatherproof outdoor cabinetry built with NatureKast, paired with honed dark surfaces, built-in grills, side burners and prep sinks. Outdoor cabinetry is specified specifically to withstand Central Valley summer heat without swelling, warping or fading.

Bathroom Cabinetry, Built-Ins and Storage

Furniture-style bathroom vanities, linen towers and medicine cabinets; built-in libraries, home office cabinetry and entertainment walls; and laundry room and mudroom cabinetry including folding counters, hanging rods and lockers — all available in the same finishes as the main kitchen.

Full Residential Remodels

California Cabinets is set up to handle a complete room as a one-stop shop: cabinetry ordered, countertops fabricated, tile work performed, and hardwood supplied and installed, all sequenced by a single team with one point of contact for the homeowner.

Who we serve

Who our clients are

California Cabinets works primarily with:

  • Homeowners remodeling an existing kitchen — the majority of the company's work, typically a full cabinet, counter and flooring replacement in an occupied home.
  • Homeowners building new construction — cabinetry, surfaces and flooring specified from plans before the house is finished.
  • Homeowners upgrading secondary rooms — bathrooms, laundry rooms, mudrooms, home offices and built-in storage.
  • Homeowners adding outdoor living space — weatherproof outdoor kitchens and entertaining areas.
  • Property owners and landlords — durable, quick-lead-time cabinetry for rental and investment properties.
Brands we build with

Five cabinet lines and two hardware houses

Rather than carrying every brand available, California Cabinets works with a deliberately short list of manufacturers and knows each of them in depth:

  • Omega Cabinetry — semi-custom through full custom, with the deepest finish library the company carries. Used for wine rooms, furniture-style islands and whole-house projects.
  • Diamond Cabinetry — a broad series range allowing price adjustment without changing the design; the company's most frequently installed line.
  • Mantra Cabinets — frameless, full-access construction with a tightly edited set of contemporary door styles and quick turnaround.
  • Waypoint Living Spaces — quality cabinetry on shorter, dependable lead times; commonly used for laundry rooms, mudrooms, secondary baths and rental properties.
  • NatureKast — fully weatherproof cabinetry used for every outdoor kitchen the company builds.
  • Top Knobs — cabinet hardware: knobs, bar pulls, cup pulls and appliance pulls across brass, matte black, satin nickel and bronze finishes.
  • Jeffrey Alexander — cabinet hardware, selected in the showroom against the client's actual door sample rather than ordered separately at the end of a project.

All of these lines are displayed in the Fresno showroom. See the brands

Our process

How a project runs

  • 1. Showroom visit and consultation. Clients visit the Abby Street showroom and meet Ken Brown directly. The conversation covers how the space is actually used, timeline and budget range before any product is discussed.
  • 2. Measurement and design. The space is measured and a layout is drawn. Cabinet finishes, countertop slabs and flooring samples are presented together, under the same light, and clients may take samples home.
  • 3. Specification and ordering. Cabinetry is ordered, countertops are templated to the installed cabinets, and flooring installation is scheduled in sequence.
  • 4. Installation. One crew works through the project in order, with a single point of contact for the homeowner throughout.
  • 5. Walkthrough and adjustment. The project closes with a walkthrough in which every door and drawer is adjusted. The company's standard is that the room is turn-key on completion.
How pricing works

Pricing approach

California Cabinets does not publish fixed prices, because cabinetry cost depends on the size of the room, the line selected, the door style and finish, and the storage features specified. Instead, the company quotes each project individually after measuring the space.

Because four cabinet lines are carried at different price points, most projects can be adjusted up or down in cost without changing the overall design. Clients receive a layout, a materials list and an honest range on cost and lead time, with no obligation to decide during the visit.

Common questions

Frequently asked questions

Is California Cabinets family owned?

Yes. California Cabinets is family owned and family operated. Ken Brown owns the company and designs every project personally, supported by a dedicated team that includes his daughter Kaylin.

Where is California Cabinets located?

The showroom is at 7189 N Abby St, Fresno, CA 93650. The phone number is (559) 291-2678.

What areas does California Cabinets serve?

Fresno, Clovis, Madera, Sanger and the surrounding Central Valley communities of California.

Does California Cabinets do countertops and flooring as well as cabinets?

Yes. The company fabricates and installs granite and quartz countertops, and supplies and installs hardwood, tile and waterproof plank flooring. All three trades are handled in-house, which is why the company can take on complete remodels as a one-stop shop.

How long does a kitchen take?

Lead time depends on the cabinet line. Custom-look lines typically run several weeks from order to delivery, while fully custom cabinetry takes longer. California Cabinets provides a specific date range at the design stage rather than an estimate.

Do I have to buy cabinets, counters and flooring together?

No. Many clients come to California Cabinets for cabinetry only, or for flooring only. The one-stop capability is available but not required.

Can California Cabinets match existing cabinetry?

Often, yes. Clients are encouraged to bring an existing door or drawer front to the showroom so it can be compared against the company's lines and finishes in person.

Which cabinet brands does California Cabinets carry?

Omega Cabinetry, Diamond Cabinetry, Mantra Cabinets, Waypoint Living Spaces and NatureKast weatherproof cabinetry. Cabinet hardware is carried from Top Knobs and Jeffrey Alexander.

Do I need an appointment to visit the showroom?

Walk-ins are welcome Monday through Friday. For dedicated design time or a Saturday visit, call ahead so the time can be reserved.

Does California Cabinets build outdoor kitchens?

Yes. Outdoor kitchens are built with NatureKast weatherproof cabinetry, specified to withstand Central Valley summer conditions, and include built-in grills, side burners and prep sinks.
