Get matched with top cabinet contractors in Megargel, AL

There are some tips when hiring a cabinet installer that’ll help prepare you to create a new space. When installing new cabinets, keep the following in mind:

• Hire the same cabinet installer professional to measure, design, and install the cabinets, as opposed to jumping between companies. 

• Discuss what types of cabinets the installer offers, including stock, semi-custom, and custom, to give yourself options.

• Discuss financing options with your installer, as this project can be expensive depending on your chosen cabinets.

• Discuss your cabinet installer’s prior experience, including asking for photos of previous projects. 

Contractors commonly install floors before cabinets during a kitchen remodel. It’s the standard option when installing hardwood, vinyl, and tile flooring. Installing flooring first helps prevent height misalignment, ensures a seamless appearance, and saves extra flooring work and costs if you plan to replace or remove any cabinets later.

Using a shim or another type of self-leveling feet on the bottom edge of your cabinet bases will help to level them out if you’re installing them on a less-than-level surface. To make this process easier, you can add your shims before attaching the bases to your cabinets while they’re still light and easy to move around.

Yes, cabinet makers continue to fabricate custom kitchen and other household cabinets for new construction homes. Cabinet makers also replace and renovate existing kitchen cabinets. The cost tends to be higher than choosing manufactured cabinets from a major retailer, but you get the cabinets specially designed and made to fit the unique needs of your space.
