CGI Construction in Las Lomas, CA | San Bruno Construction
We provide independent CGI kitchen, bath, and cabinet construction service across Las Lomas, including full kitchen remodeling, walk-in shower installation, and cabinet refacing. The thing that makes our CGI work different here is simple: we know how unincorporated Santa Cruz County’s well-and-septic rules and coastal moisture affect CGI cabinetry and glass before we ever open a box. If you’re pricing a CGI kitchen or shower project in Las Lomas, call (866) 472-1908 for a free estimate built around your actual lot, not a generic price sheet.
Why Las Lomas Residents Choose Us for CGI Service
We’re not a CGI dealer. We’re a full-scope residential general contractor that has spent years learning CGI’s cabinet, countertop, and shower-enclosure systems from the inside out: how their boxes and drawers are built, where their finishes fail, and which replacements actually hold up in a coastal-valley climate. We source CGI sales & service expertise from real project reps across the Pajaro Valley, and we apply it on the ground in Las Lomas.
Noel Carvalho grew up off El Camino Real in San Bruno, trained in construction technology at Skyline College, and has spent two-plus decades running residential projects across San Mateo and Santa Cruz counties. He’s pulled permits at City Hall, coordinated ADU builds in tight side yards, and finished bathrooms where the tile actually lines up. That background matters when a CGI cabinet run on a Las Lomas ranch home is swollen at the toe-kick and someone needs a straight answer about whether to reface or replace.

Common CGI Construction Problems We Solve in Las Lomas
CGI products are solid mid-range fixtures when they’re installed right. Here are the failures we see repeatedly on Las Lomas properties, and what’s driving them:
- Swollen MDF and particleboard cabinet boxes at the toe-kick and sink base. In Las Lomas, many homes are on private wells. A slow well-line drip under a kitchen sink goes unnoticed inside a CGI RTA cabinet base, and MDF swells and delaminates within months. We see this constantly on ranch-style homes built mid-century.
- Shaker door panels chipping and crazing near the dishwasher and range. Older Las Lomas ranch kitchens often lack a dedicated vent hood. Steam and heat cycling from a dishwasher or range attacks CGI painted finishes on lower cabinets until they craze at the edges. The fix is usually new door fronts plus a properly vented hood, not another repaint.
- Quartz countertop seams failing at cooktop cutouts. Mid-century Las Lomas framing can deflect slightly under a heavy island load. CGI quartz slabs don’t flex with it. Seams and edge profiles open at cooktop cutouts when the framing beneath wasn’t reinforced. Our crew checks the load path before we set the slab.
- Frameless shower glass and door hardware loosening at the pivot. Custom builds on unincorporated Pajaro Valley lots often sit on uneven foundation movement. A CGI frameless shower enclosure installed on a wall that isn’t dead-plumb will corrode or loosen at the pivot hardware within a couple of years. We plumb and reinforce the wall first.
- Cabinet drawer glides binding after seasonal humidity cycles. Foggy summers and wet winters in Las Lomas put moisture into the air that CGI standard drawer glides were never designed to handle. We swap them for soft-close aftermarket slides when the OEM part is backordered or overpriced for the application.
CGI Service in Las Lomas: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Las Lomas sits in unincorporated Santa Cruz County, not the city of Watsonville. That distinction carries real weight. Agricultural-residential zoning here means most major CGI kitchen, bath, and addition projects can’t pull permits until percolation tests and well water-supply verification are done. CGI repair in Watsonville city lots a few miles away simply don’t have that requirement. Add the Pajaro Valley’s wet winters and foggy summers, and you have a construction environment where moisture-sensitive work like CGI cabinet installs, quartz countertop setting, and frameless glass mounting has to be sequenced around both the county’s permit window and the weather. We plan installs around those constraints instead of fighting through them.
On a mid-century ranch off a private-well lot in the Las Lomas area of ZIP 95076, we tore out a swollen CGI RTA cabinet run whose sink base had delaminated from a slow well-line drip and reset the kitchen with new CGI shaker boxes, a quartz island, and a dedicated vent hood. Because the property is on private septic, we sequenced the remodel around percolation and water-supply verification before the county would sign off. Our crew built the cabinet install and tile backsplash around that permit window instead of through it.
CGI Models & Products We Service in Las Lomas
We work on the CGI product lines most common in West Coast distributor stock and in Las Lomas homes: CGI Ready-to-Assemble kitchen and bath cabinetry in shaker and flat-slab door styles, CGI quartz and granite countertop slabs, CGI frameless glass shower enclosures and vanity tops, and CGI all-wood and MDF cabinet box lines. For repairs we source OEM CGI doors, drawer fronts, hinges, and glass hardware when a homeowner wants a true color and profile match. When an OEM part is backordered or overpriced, we use quality aftermarket soft-close slides and hinges and tell you exactly why. We’re an independent construction provider. We don’t claim CGI authorization, partnership, or warranty endorsement. We just know their products cold and install, repair, and refit them across the Pajaro Valley and nearby Amesti CGI service area.

FAQs – CGI Construction in Las Lomas
No. We’re an independent construction provider. We install, repair, and refit CGI cabinetry, countertops, and shower enclosures, but we don’t claim CGI authorization, partnership, or warranty endorsement. We source OEM parts when a true color and profile match is needed, and quality aftermarket hardware when it makes more sense for the job.
Both, depending on the application. For CGI doors, drawer fronts, hinges, and glass hardware where a homeowner wants exact color and profile match, we source OEM. When an OEM soft-close slide is backordered or overpriced, we install a quality aftermarket equivalent and tell you why before we do it. Call (866) 472-1908 for a repair quote.
Wet winters push moisture-sensitive work like cabinet setting, quartz seam curing, and frameless glass mounting to drier windows. Foggy summers keep indoor humidity high enough that MDF cabinet boxes and painted finishes need acclimation time before installation. We schedule CGI repair in Corralitos and Las Lomas around both, and we sequence installs so the county’s permit window doesn’t stall progress.
We work on CGI Ready-to-Assemble kitchen and bath cabinetry in shaker and flat-slab door styles, CGI quartz and granite countertop slabs, CGI frameless glass shower enclosures and vanity tops, and CGI all-wood and MDF cabinet box lines sold through West Coast distributors.
Cabinet installation and refacing typically runs $4,000 – $13,000 depending on door count, finish, and whether boxes need work. Swollen MDF carcasses from well-line leaks can push that higher. Call (866) 472-1908 for an exact quote, estimates are free.
