KraftMaid Construction in Bloomington, CA | San Mateo Construction
We provide independent KraftMaid construction and cabinetry service throughout Bloomington, CA, for kitchens, islands, vanities, and full remodels, and we also offer KraftMaid repair in Fontana. What makes our KraftMaid work different here is that we know how these cabinets fail in Bloomington’s specific housing stock, older stucco tract homes and rural-residential lots, before we ever open a wall. Call (855) 901-7266 for a free KraftMaid service estimate in Bloomington.
San Mateo Construction is an independent general contractor. We install, reface, repair, and replace KraftMaid cabinets every week. We are not authorized, sponsored, or endorsed by KraftMaid. We simply know the Momentum, Marquee, Vantage, and Deluxe lines well enough to tell you what’s worth fixing and what isn’t, and we’ve applied that knowledge to KraftMaid sales & service across the region for years.
Why Bloomington Residents Choose Us for KraftMaid Service
Most cabinet installers in Bloomington can hang a box. Fewer can look at a KraftMaid sink base with a swollen toe kick and tell you whether the leak came from the plumbing, the summer humidity cycling, or the fact that the slab was never sealed before the cabinets went down. That’s the level of specificity you get from our crew.
Noel Carrington, owner of San Mateo Construction, has spent nearly three decades working residential and light commercial jobs, and he’ll tell you exactly what he’d do if it were his kitchen. “Tell me what you actually need, and we’ll figure out the right way to build it,” he says on the first call. That means we don’t push a full tear-out when three replacement doors and a hinge adjustment would do the job.
Every KraftMaid project in Bloomington gets OEM-compatible parts where the box is sound, honest repair-versus-replace guidance, and a written line-item quote before any work starts.

Common KraftMaid Construction Problems We Solve in Bloomington
- Swollen sink bases and toe kicks. Bloomington’s older single-story homes sit directly on slab, so any slow plumbing leak or winter rain that finds its way inside wicks straight up into the particleboard box. By the time you see the swelling, the structural edge banding is usually compromised too.
- Hinge screw pull-out on heat-cycled doors. Inland-empire heat and dry Santa Ana winds push Bloomington kitchens through wide temperature swings. KraftMaid door fronts, especially on mid-century homes with leaky windows, expand and contract enough that hinge screws work loose over several seasons.
- Finish cracking on painted fronts in unpermitted additions. Bloomington has a large stock of owner-built back additions and enclosed porches that were never permitted. These rooms have almost no insulation and wild humidity swings, so KraftMaid painted and stained fronts crack and peel faster than cabinets in the main house.
- Warped drawers in the Vantage line. When KraftMaid boxes get shimmed against out-of-level framing, which is common in older Bloomington homes with settled slabs, the drawer runners bind. It looks like a cabinet problem, but it’s usually a framing problem underneath.
- Delaminating door edges from standing water. Winter rain on Bloomington’s compacted decomposed-granite soil pools around older foundations. If a planter or downspout directs moisture against the wall, the MDF cores in KraftMaid door edges will delaminate from the bottom up.
KraftMaid Service in Bloomington: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Here’s the thing most contractors who bid Bloomington jobs from outside don’t understand: because this is one of the last unincorporated pockets of San Bernardino County, permitting runs through San Bernardino County Land Use Services, not a city building department. Any kitchen remodel that touches layout, adds an island, or opens a wall on a property with a back garage or owner-built addition can trigger a county records check before the first KraftMaid box gets ordered. On a postwar stucco ranch off Valley Boulevard, our crew opened a kitchen to find KraftMaid Vantage boxes swollen at the sink base from a slow leak and hinge screws pulling out of heat-cycled doors—similar to what we see with KraftMaid repair in Glen Avon. After the county records check cleared the unpermitted back addition, we replaced the damaged bases with new KraftMaid boxes, refaced the sound uppers, and reset the layout with a small island so the room worked with the existing framing. The homeowner got a clean inspection sign-off and soft-close drawers that finally stayed aligned. If we’d skipped the records check and just swapped cabinets, that sign-off never would have happened.
KraftMaid Models & Products We Service in Bloomington
We install, reface, repair, and replace across all four current KraftMaid lines: the Momentum series, the Marquee series, the Vantage series, and the Deluxe series. Each line has different box construction, door profiles, and hardware tolerances, so our parts sourcing changes depending on what’s in your kitchen. When a countertop or cabinet box is sound, we source genuine KraftMaid replacement doors, drawer fronts, hinges, and touch-up finish. When OEM parts are discontinued or back-ordered, we use quality aftermarket soft-close hardware and shelf pins that match the existing hardware footprint. For Bloomington homeowners, and those needing KraftMaid service in Pedley, that means we don’t hold up a cabinet refacing or repair job waiting on a factory order when an equivalent part ships in days, not months.

KraftMaid work in Bloomington spans a wide range because the scope varies. A single-bay cabinet installation is one thing.

| Service | Price Range |
|---|---|
| Cabinet Installation | $4,000 – $13,000 |
| Kitchen Remodel | $14,000 – $45,000 |
| Small Kitchen Remodel | $9,000 – $20,000 |
| Kitchen Island Installation | $3,000 – $10,000 |
| Countertop Installation | $2,000 – $6,500 |
| Backsplash Installation | $800 – $2,500 |
What drives the final number is the condition of the underlying framing, whether the property has unpermitted prior work that needs correction, and the specific KraftMaid line you select. Our free estimate includes a records check for any Bloomington property where layout is changing, so you know the full picture before we start. Call (855) 901-7266 for a written line-item quote.

FAQs – KraftMaid Construction in Bloomington
Yes, we can. KraftMaid door styles and finishes are documented by model line and production year, so if your boxes are sound and you just need a few replacement doors or drawer fronts, we match the profile and order accordingly. The trick is identifying whether your cabinets are Momentum, Marquee, Vantage, or Deluxe, because mixing lines will show. Call (855) 901-7266 and we’ll identify what you have.
Not necessarily. Bloomington permitting runs through San Bernardino County Land Use Services, and any layout change or island addition on a property with unpermitted work can trigger a records check. We pull that history first so we know what, if anything, needs to be corrected before cabinets go in. Call (855) 901-7266 and we’ll check your specific property.
They hold up as well as any engineered-wood cabinet when the installation is right. What kills KraftMaid boxes in Bloomington is moisture wicking from the slab, heat-cycled hinge screws, and uninsulated unpermitted additions that swing through humidity extremes. Installed correctly on sealed slab and in climate-controlled interiors, they perform the same here as anywhere else.
No, in most cases it isn’t. A swollen sink base means the particleboard core has already absorbed water, and no amount of refacing will stop it from continuing to deteriorate. We’ll always tell you straight when a box is past repair, and we’ll quote you a replacement base with matching door fronts instead of selling a reface that fails in a season. Call (855) 901-7266 for an honest assessment.
Often yes, if your framing is level and the floor can handle the added weight without additional support. In Bloomington’s older slab homes, that’s usually the case. On larger lots off the old farm-road grid where houses have settled or additions were built unpermitted, we may need to address the floor or framing first. Call (855) 901-7266 for a free measurement and layout check.
