John was very knowledgeable in the design and style of cabinetry. He was also patient with us as we got a quote and design from him early on in or project. Then after searching many other sources locally and on-line we returned to him and Cliq Studios. He found problems with our design, from our contractor, that would have caused us trouble and dollars during the installation. He also had exceptional skills when it came to using our limited space in the kitchen. He kept his cool even when we didn't. We were very satisfied with all aspects of his work.Read More

We worked with John on our kitchen remodel. John was great at listening to all our "wants" or must haves, he suggested things we didn't think about (even saving us money in some areas), and he was always professional. John was patient with us as we made changes with the plans and I loved the 3D drawings. We love the cabinets and though we had a few cabinets/doors that didn't have the quality that we expected and have on all the other cabinets, John was helpful when customer service dropped the ball. (read my company review for more details). We would definitely work with John again, and we LOVE our new kitchen.Read More

I worked with John on a master bathroom project at my new home. When we moved here, the bathroom cabinets were the standard depth (21") in a narrow, long bathroom. I'm disabled and must use a walker, and while I could walk into the bathroom, the cabinets took up so much space that I couldn't turn around. I had to back out of the room. I decided to pull out the cabinets and replace them with cabinets that were 16 inches deep (base) and 10 inches deep (uppers). I also wanted display space in two of the cabinets. John walked me carefully through the process and made a couple of suggestions that really improved the design. Without his input, the cabinets would have worked, but not quite as well. As it is, I have 100% happiness with my order. I ended up with a single base cabinet with two doors (and lower roll out tray) and one drawer that runs completely across the top. This gained me an inch or so of space instead of using two single cabinets. On the uppers, the display cabinet is a single cabinet without a door. Works perfect. John's input here was so helpful. This was a really great experience, and I would do it again. I'm hoping to address some kitchen issues in a future project, and I would definitely use these cabinets again and ask for John's help. Really good experience, and I highly recommend John and CliqStudios.Read More

John helped us designed a long vanity for our bathroom. He had several suggestions that we hadn't thought of that really improved the functionality. Very nice and easy to talk to!! When we start our remodel of our kitchen we will ask for John!Read More

John Z worked with me to out together a new kitchen design for our home. There were many constraints due to door and windows in the space but he was patient and revised the design more than once to tweak it once we taped it out on the floor. The kitchen came out great, we couldn't be happier.Read More
