What We Do

We design and install semi-custom cabinetry, then take it all the way through a fully finished kitchen or bathroom — everything handled, one cohesive turnkey result.

AT KITCHEN WORKS

We design and install semi-custom cabinetry, then take it all the way through a fully finished kitchen or bathroom — everything handled, one cohesive turnkey result.

Cabinetry Only?

We will provide and install semi-custom cabinetry without the full remodel. This works perfectly for our developers and builder trade partners.

Our Process & Timeline

We’ve built a structured, start-to-finish process to deliver high-quality kitchen and bathroom turnkey construction services centered around semi-custom cabinetry. Every step is intentional — designed to eliminate guesswork, maintain momentum, and ensure a cohesive final result.

Pre-Construction
1

Initial Inquiry

Once you reach out, we'll gather high-level details about your project. Note: We do not provide on-the-spot quotes. Accurate pricing requires proper measurements and design development.

2

In-Home Consultation

We schedule a visit to your home to take precise measurements, evaluate the space, and understand your vision, priorities, and budget parameters.

3

Preliminary Design Development

Our team returns to the studio to create your initial design concept, built around your layout, functionality needs, and cabinetry goals.

4

Showroom Design Presentation

You'll meet with us — preferably in our showroom (or via Zoom for out-of-state clients) — to review your design in detail. During this meeting, you'll select:

  • Cabinet styles and configurations
  • Finishes and colors
  • Hardware and key visual elements
This is where your project takes shape
5

Design Revisions

We include one round of design revisions following your showroom visit. Additional changes require a $500 design retainer to proceed — applied to your final payment.

6

Contract & Deposit

Once your design and scope are finalized, we move forward with a signed agreement and 50% deposit. This secures your project and allows us to proceed with ordering materials.

  • Signed agreement
  • 50% deposit

Cabinetry Ordering — Up to 6 Weeks

Your custom cabinetry production begins. Lead times can be up to 8 weeks depending on specifications and manufacturer schedules.

8

Project Scheduling

Once your custom cabinetry arrives at our showroom, we coordinate and confirm your project start date.

Construction Phase

Site Preparation & Rough Work

We begin with demolition, followed by any necessary rough work:

  • Structural modifications (including wall removal if applicable)
  • Electrical updates
  • Plumbing adjustments
10

Cabinet Installation & Countertop Templating

Cabinetry is installed first, establishing the foundation of the space. We then template for your custom countertops to ensure a precise fit.

11

Parallel Progress & Change Orders

While countertops are being fabricated, our team continues work in other areas to maintain momentum. Any changes must be documented as a written change order and paid in full prior to execution.

12

Countertop Installation

Your custom countertops are installed once fabrication is complete.

13

Finishes: Backsplash, Flooring & Fixtures

We complete the primary finish surfaces, bringing the design together visually and functionally.

Final Details & Clean

We wrap up with finish carpentry, detail work, and professional post-construction cleaning.

Project Completion

You reclaim your space — fully transformed and move-in ready. If you're happy (and we aim to make sure you are), we always appreciate a review.
