Gilmans Kitchens and Baths – Mountain View

This places gets a 5 star for great customer service and satisfaction. After a couple of months searching around for kitchen cabinets, we walked into Gilmans and met Linda. She wasn’t pushy like many places we experienced before and was very kind and helpful from the start. She showed us various options and informed us about the materials and such. She was extremely patient with us (as we toyed with several ideas) and was always ready to incorporate our requirements and ideas. She worked thru design ideas to optimize for our small kitchen footprint and incorporated space change such as taking walls down. She really listens and pays attentions to your needs. Thanks for fitting the spice rack and wine rack Linda!!!
Linda helped us with millions of other details as well from coordinating the countertop with our cabinets to taking care of ordering and scheduling the countertop installation. She even helped us pick the tile for our fireplace so that the whole living area and kitchen were coordinated. The cabinets turned out fantastic and with the space slightly re-​worked and new appliances, the kitchen feels a dream to be in.
The best part was their service after the sale (at which point other places often leave you on your own). They took care of ordering replacement doors for the couple of doors that had minor imperfections and scheduling the cabinet representative to make sure that the cabinet were level.
Thank you Linda for making this part of the remodeling work so smooth and stress free.

My wife and I contacted Janis for a kitchen remodel in Menlo Park. From there we hired Gilmans Design-​Build team to do the remainder or our house remodel (except the roof and window/​doors which we had already chosen firms.) From a February 2014 start to the end in mid June, we could not have been more happier in the results.
With our small kitchen footprint and some of our needs, wants and ideas collated, Janis incorporated this into a couple designs which we then narrowed down into a concise end single product. The cabinets turned out fantastic and with the space slightly re-​worked, not to mention new appliances, the kitchen feels a dream to be in.
Design Build also managed the construction of the kitchen/​living room skylight well which was worth every time and money spent, opened up our small space even further, and feels like a piece of architecture in its own right; re-​lighting in the kitchen space to match the new area perfectly including LED uplit in the sky well; the complete re-​painting of the exterior and interior of the house; a remodeled contemporary fireplace that is stunning to look at thanks to the unique tiles sourced by Brigette and Avery; and the overhaul and re-​design of our back landscaping so we have a space for our young children to play in.
Keeping to our budget was very important to us and Gilmans made sure of this. Yes we did spend some of a contingency but this was for items added into the scope.
So thank you Janis and to all the team at Design Build — Sean, Brigette, Avery, Alex and Phil.

Working with Cheryl to finish our master bath. Cheryl really listens to what you want and need plus offers fantastic ideas and options to make the project special while being mindful of price. Excited to see it all come together! My husband and I truly enjoy working with Cheryl!

I just have to give this place 5 stars for great customer service and satisfaction. After a couple of months searching around for kitchen cabinets, I walked into Gilmans and the first person I met was Gloria, she wasn’t pushy like many places I experienced before I found Gilmans, she was so kind and helpful from the start. I even told her that she made me feel so comfortable around her. Gloria helped me pick out the perfect cabinets for my mom, and I wasn’t the easiest person to work with because I’m the type to worry a lot and ask a bunch if questions. I would email her for advice on the kitchen and she was really good at getting back to me. Everyone at the store was always really nice when I stopped by. I would definitely recommend her to all my friends. Thank you Gloria, I love the cabinets and the new remodeled kitchen.

Ken Rose at Gilman’s saved us at least 4 months of «shopping around» for fixtures. Ken had everything in order and made us feel very relaxed through the construction process. If you are working full time like we were then Ken is a no brainer. He did everything for us and stayed within our budget. He designed our kitchen, two bathrooms, and fireplace and worked in tandem with our contractor which was a huge plus! We feel like we are living in a luxury resort. Thanks Ken!

This is a recommendation for Gloria Carlson, a designer, who works at Mtn View, CA — Gilman’s Kitchens and Bath. My friend recommended her to me. I was very apprehensive about my kitchen project (first one) and worried about millions of details, getting what I wanted and budget. In short, Gloria helped me survive and get the results that I wanted. She is creative, practical and responsive (emails, phone calls). She wants you to be happy with the result — she designed my kitchen and helped me pick out backsplash, cabinets and fixtures. I highly recommend her. You will be happy with the result. I would also like to compliment the rest of the staff at Gilman’s — Esty (front desk) Cynthia and Ken (all designers) — all were very personable and helped me in a pinch. It’s a great place to have your kitchen done.

I stopped in to ask about Kitchen Cabinet pull-​outs and Kitchen/​Bath Faucet fixtures. They do more comprehensive remodelling jobs, but Cynthia took the time to give me names of brands, contractors, and showed me catalogs and gave me pamphlets. Very helpful, despite my not bringing them overt business.
