Yes. Alfa Woodworks LLC is a custom cabinet maker serving San Jose and the greater San Francisco Bay Area. As the largest city in the South Bay, San Jose holds every kind of home we build for: Eichler mid-centuries, Spanish revivals, and brand-new construction, often on small lots. We design and build everything in our own shop, so one team carries your project from first sketch to final door.
Every cabinet we make is built to order for your home or business. Across San Jose we regularly build:
Every project starts with a free consultation at your home, where we measure and listen. From there, we produce 3D design renderings so you can see and adjust your kitchen, closet, or built-in before a single board is cut.
Manufacturing happens in-house, from real wood to finished and unfinished plywood, in the species you choose. You get regular project updates with photos along the way, and our team arrives on time in branded trucks and uniforms and leaves the job site spotless.
San Jose’s housing stock is unusually varied. A 1950s Eichler calls for flat, flush inset doors that respect the original lines. A Spanish revival may want warmer woods and framed detailing. A newer tract home often needs smarter storage than the builder provided. Stock boxes from a big store are made for average walls; yours are not average.
We also work on the practical realities of San Jose living: garage-laundry conversions, ADU kitchens, and compact rooms where every inch counts. Being local means we can visit your site quickly, answer questions in person, and stand behind the work for years to come.
Q1. Do you serve all of San Jose?
A. Yes. We work across San Jose, including neighborhoods like Willow Glen, the Rose Garden, Almaden, and Evergreen, and we serve both homeowners and businesses. If you are inside the city or nearby, we can come to you.
Q2. How much do custom kitchen cabinets cost in San Jose?
A. As a ballpark estimate, custom kitchen cabinets commonly run from the mid five figures, depending on the size of the kitchen, the wood species, and the finish level. The honest answer is that it depends, which is why we give you a firm quote after a site visit and a 3D design, at no cost.
Q3. How long does a custom kitchen take?
A. Most San Jose kitchen projects take several weeks from an approved design to finished cabinetry. The exact timeline depends on the scope, and you get a clear schedule up front plus photo updates while we build.
Q4. Can you match the style of an older San Jose home?
A. Yes. Flush inset and slab doors suit mid-century homes like Eichlers, while framed styles with warmer species fit Spanish revivals. We design around your home’s character instead of covering it up.
Q5. Do you build cabinets for ADUs and garage conversions?
A. We do. Compact kitchens, laundry storage, and built-ins for small spaces are some of our favorite projects, because good design matters most when the room is tight.
Q6. Is soft-close hardware included?
A. Yes. Soft-close hinges come standard on all of our custom cabinetry, at no extra charge.
