Who's Who & What's What
Dennis Berthiaume, sole
proprietor, with 21 years Union training and experience, founded
TopNotch
WoodWorking in 1995.
Since that time he
has developed his own technique to provide
homeowners with a top-of-the-line product at affordable prices.
His experience and genuine know-how are evident in the
overall
construction. TopNotch offers traditional face frame or the
more
contemporary, full overlay, "frame-less" European Styles.
CONSTRUCTION
Regardless of which species
you choose, interiors are 3/4 inch hardwood ply; all joints
are
"dadoed", glued and screwed. The backs are 1/4" hardwood ply,
hand-nailed for greater strength and durability. The cabinet
lineal foot price includes raised or recessed panels doors and drawer
faces as selected by you. The drawers boxes are priced separately
and
are either dove-tail construction of 5/8" Solid Maple or 1/2" ply, tongue and groove - both with 1/4" plywood
bottoms. The hardware is state of the art: Concealed,
self-closing and fully adjustable hinges; full extension, 100lb rating,
steel ball-bearing slides for optimum performance.
FINISH DEPARTMENT
We
use a High Volume/Low Pressure Spray System in the finish department to
provide a brushfree, even sheen finish to all stain-grade cabinetry.
After the stain (if applicable) is applied, a generous sealer
coat is laid on. After sanding the sealer coat, topcoat is applied with sanding between coats.
We use commercial grade, precatalyzed lacquers to afford you the
finest conversion finish available. As a "plus" we clearcoat the
interiors of the cabinetry as well!
The fact that we can provide a prefinished cabinet adds to the affordability!
COMMITMENT
In
Dennis' total of 31 years in the trade, he has worked with both
homeowners and contractors. His dedication to quality and his
ability to coordinate successfully with other contractors,
promises a "topnotch" product, delivered in a professional and timely
manner. With very little overhead, TopNotch quality comes with a
very affordable price tag and Dennis stands behind his work 100%.
