"Splendidly! Larry is a consummate professional with decades of experience. He designed our kitchen upgrade and the upper and lower bar cabinets. He then installed all of the cabinets and drawers. The end result was that we have a brand new kitchen that is absolutely beautiful. The workmanship is second to none. We are now in the process of remodeling and expanding our master bath and consider ourselves lucky to have Larry working on the project with us. I highly recommend using Larry for your cabinet needs."

"Carlos is absolutely amazing and what everyone wants when they hire someone to work in their home. The hinges on over 30 kitchen cabinet doors were old and either broken or on about to break. Carlos was extremely professional and respectful of my time and made every effort to schedule the work when it was most convenient for us. He did a great deal of research to find the upgraded versions of the hinges that were on the doors. Because the cabinets were custom made, regular hinges did not work. Carlos gave me a quote for the service that was extremely fair. He and his crew were friendly and cleaned up the cabinets better than they found them. Carlos is one of the best contractors that I have ever used, and he will be my first call for my next job."

Customers say: True professional

"Our kitchen remodel with McCormick Home Builders went beyond our expectations. Leoni and her team took the time to understand exactly what we wanted. The open layout design changed the way we use the space, and it’s been perfect for family gatherings. They were prompt, courteous, and genuinely invested in making sure we were happy. Really impressed!"

Cabinet Making FAQs, answered by experts

There’s no strict rule about which way cabinet doors should open, but generally, double cabinet doors should open away from each other. With single doors, you want to avoid having them block your path or swing into  areas where people need to stand. Some kitchens are angled so that cabinet doors may crash into something no matter which way they swing, but the methods above can help prevent damage.

If you're looking for ways to save money on custom cabinets, there are a few ways to cut costs without sacrificing beauty. For starters, comparing door styles to choose the most cost-effective option is a great way to save money on the overall project.

In addition, choosing a common wood species versus an exotic one will lower the price. Woods like oak and hickory are often more affordable wood choices, and the same goes for knobs, pulls, and other finishes where picking a commonly available style can reduce costs.

A cabinet installer measures and designs cabinet units for homes and businesses, including determining how to hide large appliances in the kitchen. They then prepare the spaces and install either custom, semi-custom, or stock cabinets. These contractors may apply paint or stain, or they’ll hire a third party to perform these services.

If you’re brave enough to tackle building your own cabinet bases, you’re brave enough to install them yourself. You’ll need a stud finder to get you started, but the installation will be a breeze if you’ve already done all the hard work to build the cabinet bases yourself. If you’re hanging upper cabinets, you’ll need a helper, though, to balance the weight of the cabinets and make the process easier.

The time it takes to install new cabinets depends on the scope of the project. For a kitchen installation, you can expect the process to take anywhere from 2-5 days for a standard layout up to a couple of weeks for more complex projects, depending on the number of cabinets and the installation space. For a smaller project, such as installing cabinets in a bathroom, you can expect the work to take a week or less. Your cabinet installation expert will be able to provide you with a realistic timeframe.
