Let me start by saying that I am a detail oriented person and some may even call me obsessive. I have very high expectations and often expect perfection, despite of course, not being perfect myself. We researched products and planned our kitchen for many years while we saved the money to afford such a project. Thus, I didn't want to trust our kitchen to just anyone. We spoke with many (8) and met with several (6) other companies before being referred to Adam McKee at Contemporary Woods.
I cannot speak highly enough of the service we received. The attention and patience Adam personally showed to us throughout the entire process is why Contemporary Woods has earned five stars from us. We have an old house with small spaces and odd measurements. We needed custom cabinets to maximize space and utilize all areas. We received high quality cabinets built to our specifications for what we consider to be a fair and reasonable price for our small (yet very important to us) project.
I will not lie, as with most construction projects, there were a few issues like a short delay of our order from the manufacturer, a miscommunication between our plans and the installer's plans, and a small snag that resulted in a cabinet needing to be rebuilt. However, the timely communication and corrective action taken by Adam and his staff proved to us (mainly me, as I am the one obsessed with the smallest of details) that we were correct in trusting Contemporary Woods with our project.
The time and attention Adam personally contributed to fixing the few issues and making sure we are truly happy with every last detail of our project is very much appreciated. It is a testament to his character and to the business he is continuing to build. It is easy to maintain professionalism when everything goes right the first time around, but it is more important to maintain your professionalism while striving to perfect a customer's dreams after a few hiccups. The website for Contemporary Woods indicates a person should get what they want, not just whatever is available. They truly mean it! Thank you Adam and...
Read moreMy experience with contemporary woods has been quite unfortunate. I brought Adam and his team into my home to do a somewhat simple layout of cabinets. Everything seemed great up until install day which the cabinet installer notified me that the area was measured incorrectly. Adam and his team were out over the next day trying to remedy the issue. During that time I realized that our cabinets had not been built to the specs of our final agreed upon draft but a previous rendering. After this the mistakes started to compound. I left it in Adam and his teams hands to make it right. They chose to stick with what they had already installed to not compromise any of the cabinet structure, which I was not ideal but likely the best option for the situation. However, in my conversations with Adam leading towards this conclusion we had spoken about that he would be reviewing the projects billing and I would receive an invoice describing what services I ought to be paying for and what services ought to be refunded as they did not follow their own steps of design process for my project which led to the mistakes. I waited for a month to hear back from Adam before I reached out but it seemed as though my project had again fallen off his radar as a priority to resolve. Would not recommend as their integrity did not show when problems came to...
Read moreThis summer we asked my nephew who owns Contemporary Woods, custom wood crafters in Lincoln, NE to create a live edge dining table. And boy did they come through!!
Adam McKee and I personally chose the stunning maple planks at Big red Saw mill. Adam kept me abreast of the stages throughout the process by sending pics. Adam and Cory McKee personally delivered the fabulous table and took the utmost care in assembly and cleaned up after the work!
Yes, the price tag is more than a machine made product. And it was so worth every penny. We adore our maple live-edge table handcrafted just for us with such purposeful and intentional care!! Thank you Adam and the crew!!
If you need any wood piece of furniture, cabinetry, etc... contact Adam McKee at Contemporary Woods, they will not disappoint!
