Call (833) 589-8103 to talk through your project.
Why Mountain View Residents Choose Us for KraftMaid Service
We’ve installed and serviced KraftMaid in Sunnyvale and across hundreds of Bay Area kitchens, from full-room layouts to single-cabinet swaps. Our crews know the brand’s box construction, door styles, and finish behavior in real homes, not just showroom samples. That matters when you’re adding cabinets to a 1963 ranch near Cuesta Park, where the walls aren’t plumb and the slab has moved a half-inch since Kennedy was in office.
Glen Sorrento, our owner, spent two-plus decades working through nearly every project type the Peninsula throws at a contractor. He’s the one who looks at your existing Vantage cabinet boxes and tells you whether they’ll accept new OEM hinges or whether the particleboard is too far gone. We use OEM KraftMaid hinges, slides, and touch-up kits for warranty-eligible cabinets, and quality aftermarket soft-close slides when the original hardware is discontinued. If a box is swollen or delaminating from past water exposure, we recommend replacement over repair. Our Mountain View service area has low-pitch roofs and additions that make hidden moisture common.

Common KraftMaid Construction Problems We Solve in Mountain View
- Hinge screws pulling out of particleboard boxes. Older KraftMaid Vantage cabinets are prone to this after years of humidity swings, and Mountain View’s open-plan kitchen remodels amplify the problem. When a wall comes down between the kitchen and dining room, airflow changes, and those boxes see more moisture than they were built for.
- Thermofoil door finishes blistering near cooktops and dishwashers. Momentum cabinet doors are particularly vulnerable when ventilation is marginal. In Mountain View’s compact galley kitchens, the range hood often recirculates instead of venting outside, and that trapped heat and steam peels thermofoil within a few years.
- Drawer slides binding and wearing prematurely. Slab-on-grade foundations are standard in Mountain View’s post-war tract homes. Seasonal ground movement transfers directly into cabinet frames, and we see slides that worked fine in June start grinding in December.
- Hairline cracks at stile-and-rail joints on painted Boston-style doors. This happens when cabinets are installed before drywall moisture has fully stabilized. Mountain View remodels move fast, especially on investment properties where a tech worker is relocating in six weeks, and rushed sequencing shows up in the finish months later.
- Cabinet boxes separating from walls in Eichler-style homes. Exposed post-and-beam framing means there’s no drywall cavity to hide fastener issues. Cabinets anchored to the wrong part of the structure will sag or pull away, and the city’s inspectors will notice before you do.
KraftMaid Service in Mountain View: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Cabinets
In Mountain View’s Eichler-style and low-slung ranch homes, kitchens often sit under exposed post-and-beam roof structures with no attic. That means any cabinet installation or venting change must be coordinated with structural shear upgrades that the city’s permit reviewers scrutinize before drywall goes up. We’ve pulled permits in this city long enough to know that a second-story addition on a small lot near Sylvan Park will get red-tagged for setbacks and neighbor privacy before construction even starts. For KraftMaid repair in Loyola and Mountain View owners, the practical consequence is this: you can’t just order cabinets and schedule an install. The cabinet layout has to work around shear panels, post locations, and the load path of the addition. Get the sequence wrong and you’ll be paying to move boxes that are already anchored.
KraftMaid Models & Products We Service in Mountain View
We work with KraftMaid Vantage and Momentum series cabinets, plus the Boston and Glenwood door styles. For warranty-eligible work, we spec OEM hinges, slides, and touch-up kits directly. When a line is discontinued or a client wants an upgrade path, we move to quality aftermarket soft-close hardware that fits the existing face frame without modification. We keep common hinge types and touch-up kits on the truck, which means a single-cabinet fix in Old Mountain View doesn’t wait on a parts order. For full remodels, we coordinate the entire scope: cabinet installation and refacing, kitchen design and layout, full kitchen remodeling, countertops, backsplash, and the plumbing and electrical that go behind the boxes.

FAQs – KraftMaid Construction in Mountain View
Can you match my existing KraftMaid Vantage cabinets if I only need a few new boxes?
Yes, we can match the door style and finish on most existing Vantage runs, assuming the line isn’t fully discontinued. We’ll spec OEM components where available and use aftermarket soft-close hardware if the original slides are no longer made. Call (833) 589-8103 with your cabinet door style and we’ll tell you exactly what’s matchable before you commit.
Do Mountain View permits require special cabinet anchoring in Eichler-style homes?
Not a separate cabinet permit, no. But Eichler-style homes have exposed post-and-beam framing, and the city’s plan reviewers expect any kitchen remodel to address structural shear before finish work is approved. We coordinate cabinet anchoring with the shear upgrade scope so your boxes never get mounted to a wall that’s about to be opened and rebuilt.
My KraftMaid Momentum doors are peeling near the dishwasher – is that covered?
KraftMaid’s finish warranty may cover thermofoil delamination depending on cabinet age and whether the failure is a manufacturing defect versus heat and moisture exposure. We’ll inspect the doors, document the failure mode, and help you file a warranty claim if it’s eligible. If not, we’ll walk you through replacement door options that match your existing layout. Call (833) 589-8103 for a free inspection.
How do you handle cabinet installation when adding a second story or ADU changes the kitchen layout?
We treat it as one scope, not two projects. The framing, shear, plumbing, and cabinet layout get sequenced together, which is the only way to avoid redoing finish work after an inspector flags the structure. Glen coordinates this as your Mountain View General Contractor on every addition; it’s not a specialty we sub out.
What’s the typical lead time for a KraftMaid cabinet order in Mountain View?
Stock Vantage and Momentum lines usually land in 3 to 6 weeks. Custom sizes or special finishes can run 8 to 12 weeks. We’ll give you an exact lead time once we lock the layout and door style, and we schedule the rough-in work around that date so your kitchen isn’t torn apart longer than it needs to be. Call (833) 589-8103 for current availability.
