CWS Construction in San Bernardino, CA | Bradford Remodeling
We provide independent CWS cabinet service across San Bernardino, from Del Rosa to the North End and every neighborhood in between. What makes our work different here comes down to one thing: we know which CWS kitchens can be saved with refacing and which ones need honest replacement. If you have swollen boxes, failing glides, or peeling doors, call (903) 568-7222 and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Why San Bernardino Residents Choose Us for CWS Service
We have installed, refaced, and repaired CWS cabinetry in San Bernardino homes long enough to know the line-specific quirks. The Concord series has a different drawer glide profile than the Atherton. The Summit boxes are built heavier than the Value Line. That matters when you are ordering replacement doors or matching hinges, because a generic “cabinet guy” might order a door that looks right in a photo but sits wrong on the frame. Our installers know CWS box construction, drawer glides, and hinge adjustments specifically, so we can fix or upgrade CWS kitchens without pretending to be the manufacturer.
Curtis Lane runs our crew. He trained in construction technology at Los Angeles Trade-Technical College and spent two decades on jobs from foundation to finish carpentry before starting Bradford Remodeling as a General Contractor - San Bernardino. His approach is simple: straight number, real scope, no surprises at the punch list. That carries through every CWS job we take in San Bernardino. We are an independent CWS service provider, not manufacturer-affiliated or authorized, which means we answer to you, not to a dealer quota.

Common CWS Construction Problems We Solve in San Bernardino
- Swollen particleboard boxes from under-sink leaks. San Bernardino’s hard water attacks plumbing fittings over time, and summer heat accelerates swelling once moisture gets into the box. A swollen CWS box cannot be refaced. We tell you straight when replacement is the honest call.
- Painted doors checking and peeling on south-facing kitchen walls. Afternoon sun through San Bernardino windows puts thermal stress on painted CWS doors. The finish fails along the panel edges first, then the checking spreads across the face.
- Drawer glides wearing out from heavy pots and pans. The dry inland climate keeps humidity low, but daily use still grinds down the nylon rollers and side-mount tracks on older CWS drawers. When OEM parts still exist, we match them exactly. When they are discontinued, we install high-quality aftermarket soft-close hardware.
- Hinges loosening from seasonal expansion and contraction. Unconditioned kitchens and garages in San Bernardino swing from cold winter nights to triple-digit summer days. That movement works hinge screws loose over the years, especially on the Value Line doors.
- Discontinued door styles and finishes. CWS has changed door profiles and color runs over the years. If your Atherton or Summit doors are no longer in production, we source close-match alternatives or reface the full run so the kitchen still looks intentional.
CWS Service in San Bernardino: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
San Bernardino’s pre-1978 housing stock changes how CWS work has to be done here. Many kitchens we open up still have old lead paint on the original framing behind the cabinets. Before we touch a single door or pull a box off the wall, we run lead-safe containment on those jobs. It adds a step, but it is non-negotiable. In neighborhoods like Del Rosa and Arrowhead, where the homes date to the 1950s and 1960s, we see it regularly. A reface or cabinet install in one of those houses is not the same job as it would be in a 2015 build in Rancho Cucamonga. The framing is older, the walls are often out of square, and the lead-safe protocols are required by law. We plan for that from the first estimate, not halfway through demo.
CWS Models & Products We Service in San Bernardino
We work on the full CWS lineup: the Concord series, the Atherton series, the Summit series, and the Value Line. For matching existing cabinets, we use OEM CWS hinges and glides when they are available. For upgrading older CWS kitchens where OEM parts are discontinued, we install aftermarket soft-close hinges that seat cleanly on the original CWS face-frame and box dimensions. We keep common hardware and replacement box components stocked so San Bernardino turnaround is measured in days, not weeks. If you want CWS sales & service without the dealer markup, that is exactly what we provide.

FAQs – CWS Construction in San Bernardino
Yes, in most cases. We source close-match doors for discontinued CWS styles, and if a true match is not available, we reface the full run so the kitchen looks deliberate rather than patched. Call (903) 568-7222 and we will tell you what is possible for your specific CWS door profile.
Cabinet installation and refacing do not require a building permit in San Bernardino when the work stays within the existing footprint. If your CWS kitchen job includes plumbing or electrical changes, permits are required and we pull them. We handle that paperwork so you do not have to chase City Hall.
Most CWS refaces in San Bernardino finish in 4 to 7 working days. That includes removing old doors and drawer fronts, prepping the boxes, installing new doors and hardware, and the final walkthrough. Jobs with lead-safe containment or significant box replacement take longer, and we tell you that in the written estimate. Call (903) 568-7222 for a timeline on your kitchen.
CWS boxes are particleboard, and San Bernardino summer heat will punish any particleboard that gets wet or sits in direct sun for years. The failure usually starts with a plumbing leak under the sink. Dry, shaded CWS cabinets hold up fine. We recommend sealing plumbing penetrations and keeping south-facing windows covered during peak afternoon heat to extend the life of painted doors.
Yes. Every completed project carries the 365-Day Done Right Promise. If the work fails inside that full-year window, we come back and correct it at no charge. That is in writing before we start. Call (903) 568-7222 and we will put the same guarantee on your CWS job.

We refaced a CWS kitchen in Del Rosa where the original oak doors had checked and the hinges were pulling out of swollen boxes near the sink. We replaced the failing boxes with matching CWS-spec cabinets, installed soft-close hinges, and topped it with a Silestone counter.
