Serving Pleasanton

Custom wine cellars in Pleasanton

A family room, bonus room, under-stair space or garage needs an enclosure suited to wine storage. Share the room dimensions and surrounding conditions with Mike before choosing the cooling.

What we build here

What a cellar in Pleasanton could look like

Describe how you expect to use the finished space. A room people spend time in needs a different conversation about circulation, access and cooling than one you step into for thirty seconds to grab a bottle.

  1. Leave space for serving

    Mark the counter and nearby glass storage on the plan, and check that people can move without blocking the racking or the door.

  2. Make labels easy to read

    Mike plans the lighting placement with his crew and any designer already on the project, and includes its heat in the cooling assessment.

  3. Plan for the actual use

    Explain how often the room will open and how it connects to the house. Choose equipment for the enclosure and the real operating conditions.

What we do here

Four jobs, one showroom

We plan and supply the cellar. Mike sizes the storage and cooling, orders the equipment, and schedules the contractors he brings in for the build and installation.

  1. Design and capacity

    Rack elevations and a bottle count by format, so you know what the room holds before anything is ordered.

  2. Racking

    VintageView metal, Modularack pine, redwood and mahogany kits, and custom millwork when the room refuses to be rectangular.

  3. Cooling

    WhisperKOOL, Wine Guardian, CellarPro and CellarCool, sized against the room's heat load rather than its square footage.

  4. Install coordination

    Delivery, the install date and the contractors Mike brings in, coordinated from the showroom so the room is ready when the equipment is.

Straight answers

Asked in Pleasanton

Can a Pleasanton cellar include a tasting area?
Yes, as part of the design. Share the intended use and layout so Mike can plan the storage, circulation and cooling with you, then take those details to the contractors he brings in.
How much cooling do I need for an open-plan corner?
An open corner is not a sealed cellar. Share the full layout and surrounding conditions with Mike to compare an enclosure with other storage options.
How long does a cellar in Pleasanton take?
It depends on design decisions, product availability and the schedule of the contractors Mike brings in. Tell Mike your plans and target date and he will walk through the next steps and current lead times.
Do you come out to Pleasanton to measure?
Send whatever dimensions and photos you have to (925) 944-1084. Between you Mike will work out whether a site visit would help, who handles it and which drawings the project needs.
What will it cost?
It depends on room prep, racking, cooling and finishes. Send dimensions and a bottle count and Mike will talk through the scope and what he needs to put a project quote together.
What if I already have a Pleasanton general contractor or architect?
Mike works alongside them when the cellar is part of a larger project. Bring the current plans while the construction details, equipment requirements and finishes can still move.
