Q: How can I get your company's catalog?

Q: Does your company do cabinet re-facing?
A: Bardon does not offer cabinet re-facing, nor do we recommend it!

Q: What areas of the county does Bardon serve?
A: Bardon serves the Southwest area including but not limited to: San Diego, Riverside, Coachella, and Orange counties as well as their surrounding areas.  Bardon also serves areas of Arizona! 

Q: Do you sell countertops?  Do you install them with my cabinets?
A: Bardon does offer countertops, but we work through an outside supplier for our materials and our fabrication/installation.  We will assist you in obtaining the pricing and we will assist you in the scheduling/coordination of the fabrication and installation of your countertops if you purchase through our referred companies.  Countertop fabrication and installation cannot happen until after your cabinets are installed.  After installation, your countertops will be templated and shortly after that, your countertops will be installed by the fabricator.  Granite countertops usually take  10-14 days to be templated and installed. 

Q: Do you sell appliances?
A: Bardon does not actually sell appliances.  We provide our customers with the benefit of an Appliance Specialist, located right there in our Miramar Showroom & Design Center.  This person can help you pick out your appliances, as well as make sure the model numbers and specs get relayed to our manufacturing team.  Your appliance purchase, however, will be made with a separate company.

Q: Do you provide cabinet removal or any other contractor services?
A: Cabinet removal is an option that is provided to our customers through an outside contracting company from Bardon's referral list.  All of the contractors on our referral list have been thoroughly screened by our company for their license requirements and standings, as well as being bonded and insured.  Bardon has created a convenient "All-in-One" package of services that consists of cabinet demolition and removal from premises, wall repair and primer coat of paint, appliance installation and sink installation.  This package can certainly be included in your cabinetry bid upon request by the customer.

Q: Do I have to use your referrals for countertops, appliances, and contractors?
A: Bardon provides referrals to our customers to help make the process of remodeling their kitchen easier.  Taking advantage of our referrals is in no way a requirement!  You are welcome to use your own choice of company for these products and services, however, Bardon will not necessarily be able to assist in the coordination of schedules, ensure timeliness, and/or quality of work.

Q: What is your turn-around time?  How long will I be without my kitchen?
A: Depending on the scope of your kitchen remodel, most customers have a complete kitchen (cabinets, countertops and appliances installed) within 2-3 weeks after their existing cabinets have been removed.

Q: What if I already know my kitchen measurements, must I still have an in-home consultation?
A: Yes, Bardon requires the initial in-home consult because we manufacture a custom built product.  Everything is made-to-order.  It is in everyone's best interest to allow our trained design associates to obtain all the necessary information they feel is needed to provide you with an accurate bid.  By allowing Bardon in to your home to take measurements, we are better able to avoid unforeseen design errors when we get to the manufacturing process.

Q: Do you offer financing options?
A: There are some promotional time periods where Bardon offers financing options for our customers.  It is not always available, but it is always dependent upon credit approval.  If this is something that you are certain will be necessary for you to remodel your kitchen, please let us know and we will see what options we can provide to you.

Q: Does Bardon use water-based finishes?  Will you use a water-based finish if I request it?
A: Bardon is proud to be able to use the highest quality mineral-based finishes.  We do not use any water-based products in our finishing systems, only conversion varnishes and pre-catalyzed lacquers are used.  If you insist that a water based finishing product is used on your cabinetry, we will accommodate you, however, we will not be able to provide a warranty on your cabinetry, due to the nature of water-based finishes.  They do not last as long, nor do they protect your natural wood product the way conversion varnishes do.  Please consult one of our sales associate for more information on this topic.

Q: How long does it take to install a kitchen?
A: Installation occurs the day after your cabinetry delivery.  Installation can usually be completed in one day, however, in some cases, we may need a subsequent day to complete your installation.

Q: What happens after I make my purchase? Who do I call if I have more questions?
A: After you purchase your new cabinetry from Bardon, we provide you with a Project Manager to handle your job from point-of-sale through installation of your countertops & appliances.  Most of the time, you will meet your Project Manager during your final sales appointment with us!  Your Project Manager will assist you with scheduling your timeline and appointments, as well as serve as a liaison between you and any outside company you were referred to through us.  She/he will be there to answer any questions you have, as well as solve any issues that may arise during the course of your project.
