First Class Woodworks:
Murrieta's Premier Cabinet Makers.

First Class WoodWorks is a kitchen remodeling company in Murrieta, California that specializes in custom cabinetry and finish carpentry for homeowners across the Temecula Valley. If you need kitchen remodeling in Murrieta — from full gut renovations to custom cabinet refacing — we handle every phase in-house with zero subcontractors.

We are not a general contractor who farms out the cabinet work. We are the cabinet builder. Every drawer box is dovetailed in our own shop. Every face frame is joined with mortise-and-tenon construction. Every surface is finished with post-catalyzed conversion varnish — the same professional coating used on high-end furniture, not the house paint other shops spray on particle board.

Our kitchen remodeling process starts with a free in-home consultation where we take precise laser measurements and discuss your vision. You'll receive full 3D renderings before a single board is cut. From design approval to professional installation, the typical timeline is 8–12 weeks — and our own employees are on-site for every step.

Looking for custom cabinets in Murrieta? First Class WoodWorks builds bespoke cabinetry for kitchens, bathrooms, closets, and entertainment centers — all from furniture-grade plywood and solid hardwoods. We never use particle board, melamine, or imported flat-pack boxes.

Why local homeowners choose us over big-box stores: Pre-fab cabinets come in standard 3-inch size increments. If your wall is 32 inches, you get a 30-inch box plus a 2-inch filler strip. We build to the 1/16th of an inch — perfect fit, zero wasted space, zero unsightly gaps. Every cabinet ships with Blum soft-close hinges and undermount slides backed by a lifetime warranty.

What to ask before hiring a cabinet maker near you: Ask if they subcontract. Ask if they use solid wood or particle board. Ask to see their joinery — dovetails and mortise-and-tenon, or just staples and glue? At First Class WoodWorks, we welcome the comparison because our craftsmanship speaks for itself on every project from Bear Creek to Old Town Temecula to the Santa Rosa Plateau.

Diego Macias built First Class WoodWorks on a single principle: every project gets a team of skilled finish contractors — not rough carpenters, not subcontractors — who take pride in clean job sites and heirloom-quality results. The built-ins, entertainment centers, fireplace mantels, and crown molding we produce in Murrieta and Temecula are permanent architectural features, built to the same standard as the finest furniture.

Whether you need a floor-to-ceiling media wall with integrated lighting, a hand-profiled fireplace mantel in solid White Oak, or custom wainscoting for your dining room, our cabinet makers use the same dovetail joinery, mortise-and-tenon construction, and post-catalyzed conversion varnish on every project — large or small.
