"Vincent and his assistant Sergei took on a difficult job of installing a stove top and a downdraft fan that posed some challenges of fitting into an existing counter space. An installer sent by the dealer failed at this task but they were careful and creative in finding solutions. We appreciated the attention to detail and their hard work - and the result was fabulous. Not least, the price was reasonable and both of them were easy and pleasant to work with. No hesitation in recommending their services."

American Kitchen and Bath, Inc. is a reputable full-service General Contracting business based out of San Jose, CA. We specialize in kitchen and bathroom remodeling. We not only design your kitchen and bathroom, we handle the entire project while offering innovative ideas and creative design solutions. Contractor's License #886059
"American Kitchen and Bath, Inc. completed my contracted improvements on time and within budget. And that’s what would be expected. Yes, I would recommend them. AKB went beyond the normal expectations. My project required a whole house renovation. It included replacing the electrical, plumbing, windows, flooring and interior and exterior paint along with a completely new kitchen and bathroom. I found AKB by reviewing the City of San Jose permit website and saw they had pulled more permits than other local firms listed in National Association of Remodeling Industry (NARI). I completed an online contact request, and Shawn responded within the hour. We made an appointment to discuss what I wanted and was assured they could do the work within the budget. The process of developing the scope of work was very detailed. There were a few subcontractors necessary for my project, and I was introduced to each contractor at this early stage. I could tell from these meetings that the contractors had a very good relationship with AKB. It also involved working very closely with their designer, Buffy. I had no vision as to what I wanted, but Buffy was able to tease out what I did not like. In no time, she knew exactly what would appeal to my taste. Both Shawn and Buffy remained part of my project all the way through to the finish. When the project started, the demolition, installing a beam, rough plumbing and electrical all moved along very quickly. We were scheduled for the first city inspection when the pandemic shelter-in-place order was given. I was reassured by Johans, the owner, that the minute the business was released from the shutdown, my project would proceed. After the shutdown and passing that first inspection, the work progressed at an amazing rate. The site supervisor, Ron, would save up all of his questions for our Friday meetings as well as email or texting which would allow me to make necessary decisions quickly. They made sure that every decision I made was followed. There was a great deal of plaster and drywall patching, interior and exterior trim work, refinishing of doors, and many other finishing touches that needed to be done. Ron made sure each detail was completed with care and craftsmanship. The quality of the work was exceptional. All AKB employees and subcontractors were very responsive and respectful of my house as well as my time. At the first meeting with Buffy at my house, she called my house a “gem.” The finished project is better than I could imagine. I was promised a new beautiful home and now have my dream home, my gem."

"job went well but behind schedule as there were unforeseen issues that had to be updated/repaired. in addition to the delays crews were not on site daily as they were also working on other jobs at the same time. staff was very pleasant and courteous yet there were a few who spoke very little English. Overall i would most likely hire them for further jobs."

"Oscar truly stands out as a contractor who cares deeply about his clients, and that’s exactly how he made me feel. I reached out to five different contractors to assess my bathroom and offer ideas, but my experiences varied significantly. Some were overly sales-driven, others dismissed my ideas entirely, and one didn’t even follow up with an estimate. Oscar, however, was a breath of fresh air. He arrived on time, listened attentively to my ideas, and offered thoughtful suggestions. He was highly collaborative with the other workers on site, making sure everything was well coordinated. Oscar's expertise in the industry is evident, and he’s exceptionally creative when it comes to problem-solving. When he identified additional challenges during the project, he took the time to offer practical solutions, demonstrating his commitment to delivering the best result. Oscar has earned my trust and will be my go-to contractor for any future projects. I highly recommend him to anyone in need of a reliable, skilled, and dedicated professional"

When properly maintained, most refrigerators last about 10 to 15 years. With regular upkeep, some can run efficiently for up to 20 years or more. However, lower-performing models might need replacing after as few as eight years. Keeping up with maintenance and hiring an appliance pro for any repairs can help extend your fridge's lifespan.
Despite common perceptions, the average cost to repair a mini fridge is around $250. Technicians may charge an hourly rate between $45 and $120, with an additional service charge of $150 to $200. You’ll double that for a home visit. Unless the issue is easy to fix on your own, buying a new minifridge usually costs less than paying for a repair.
Once your repair bill hits about 50% of the replacement cost and your fridge is out of warranty, it’s time to replace it. Spending $100 to $300 on a repair (especially when it helps the fridge last for several more years) is a fraction of the $1,000 to $1,500 price for a brand-new one.
A fridge is low on Freon if it’s leaking refrigerant. If you notice your food isn’t staying cold, the motor is running more than usual (or even constantly), and there’s a chemical smell, this could indicate a leak. You should never need to replace refrigerant in a well-functioning fridge, but if you do, call a pro to handle this issue safely.
A refrigerator stops cooling due to multiple underlying issues. Faulty compressor fans, malfunctioning thermostats, obstructed coils from accumulated dirt, or an unplugged unit are the primary reasons for failed cooling. In addition, wiring faults, damaged door seals, or mechanical breakdowns can also disrupt performance. Inspect all components carefully and consult a repair pro if the problem persists.
A failing refrigerator control board displays clear warning signs that affect cooling performance and generate error codes. It is the central unit that governs compressor operation and temperature regulation. Key symptoms include erratic temperatures, unexpected display malfunctions, unresponsive controls, and a complete loss of cooling. Recognize these issues immediately and secure professional repair to protect the appliance.
