Frequently Asked Questions
Everything we get asked most about pricing, process, and what we build.
Pricing & Estimates
What does a cabinet project cost?
Pricing depends on materials and layout, so we don't quote a flat rate. Give us a call and we'll set up a walkthrough to get you a real number.
Do you offer free estimates?
Yes. We do walkthrough estimates in person, so we can give you a real number based on your actual space instead of a phone guess.
Do you charge for the walkthrough itself?
No, the walkthrough and estimate are free.
What affects the price the most?
Material choice, finish, and the complexity of the layout are the biggest factors. We'll walk through the options during your estimate.
Our Process
How does a project actually start?
With an in-home walkthrough. We look at your space, take real measurements, and talk through what you need before anything is designed or priced.
Do I see a drawing before you build anything?
Yes. We draw the layout and go over it with you before any cabinets are built.
How do you handle plumbing and other trades?
We meet with you and walk the space before any plumbing starts, then work backward from that plan so trades come in after cabinets are designed, not before.
Can you move appliances or existing fixtures?
Yes, we'll move appliances or fixtures during install when the project calls for it.
How long does a typical project take?
It depends on scope. A single vanity might take a couple weeks from design to install, while a full kitchen can take longer depending on material lead times.
Service Area
What areas do you serve?
We're based in Salem, Oregon, and take projects in Salem and across Oregon.
Do you take on projects outside the Salem area?
Yes, though for places like Bend or the coast, travel time is part of the conversation. We'll be upfront about that on the first call.
Materials & Design
Do you handle kitchens, bathrooms, and closets?
Yes. We build cabinets for kitchens, bathrooms, closets, pantries, wet bars, mudrooms, and built-in seating or entertainment centers.
Can I choose the wood species and finish?
Yes, we go over material and finish options during your walkthrough and design meeting.
Do you build to match cabinets I already have?
In many cases yes. Bring us photos or let us see the existing cabinets in person and we'll talk through what's possible.
Getting Started
How do I schedule a walkthrough?
Call us at (503) 580-4268 or use the contact page and we'll get something set up.
What should I have ready for the first visit?
Just the space itself. If you have photos of styles you like, bring those too, but it's not required.
Do you work directly with homeowners, or only through contractors?
Both. We work directly with homeowners and also partner with contractors and builders on new construction.
