"We hired Ken to convert a front closet into half closet/half pantry. This required him to create a side entrance into the closet to install multiple custom pantry shelves and install a barn door. He did a fantastic job with the project, was clean, neat and had great communication. He was flexible with issues due to Covid and the lack of power due to Isaias. We couldn't be happier with what he built for us. Great skill and attention to detail. Thanks!!"

"DAVID IS AMAZING ! I have a 10 foot long closet that i tried fixing myself 3 times and it was a nightmare that wouldnâ  t end my clothes were all on the ground and my room was a mess ! Nobody would take the job and if they were willing to hear my story their price was astronomical. I called the cleaners and builders and David and i agreed on a fair price and picked a day for him to get started working on the closet, his flexibility was perfect for my schedule. He put the closet up extremely professional and was nice and upfront about the whole process it was extremely hard to find an honest handyman and let me tell you for now on heâ  s my guy ! Also as a bonus after the job was done he followed up came back to check if everything was good and also refunded me the amount from the materials that were refundable after the job was done. 10/10 in my book ! Thank you again for resolving my closet problem in such a timely manner."

"Arnaldo and his crew did an awesome job on fixing a bouncy floors, sheetrocking, removing/fixing odd and shoddily done things that were done by the previous owner that made the floorplan unworkable,laying new floors and making our house beautiful! He was honest with quoting the work that had to be done and was very responsive and timely. Was courteous and cleaned up after every days work and did a good job in a reasonable amount of time. I would definitely hire him again if we need work done in the future."

"Lindsay and Jimmy just finished refinishing our kitchen cabinets. They did a beautiful job and were a pleasure to work with and are both charming and good-hearted. They arrived when they said they would on day 1, and finished on time on day 7 (lots of cabinets). The kitchen looks beautiful, refreshed, and I wish I had other projects to give to them. We obtained multiple bids and Lindsay's was by far the most reasonable. We couldn't be happier with the results."

FAQs for closet service projects in Newtown, CT

Building a custom closet costs about $2,000, on average. Because many types, sizes, and designs are available, the cost to build custom closets ranges from $250 to $6,000 or more. A reach-in closet is on the lower end of the price range from about $250 to $1,500, compared to a walk-in closet at $750 to $3,500 or a wardrobe at the high end between $1,500 and $6,000 or more.

The main difference between a closet and a wardrobe is that a closet is a separate room for general storage with its own door, and a wardrobe can be either built-in or freestanding place to store clothing. A walk-in or reach-in closet connected to a bedroom often serves the same purpose as a wardrobe by primarily storing clothes and shoes. A built-in wardrobe often does not have doors and leaves clothes exposed to view, whereas a standalone wardrobe usually has doors.

You may need a building permit to add a closet, depending on the size and kind of work required to install it. The most likely scenario requiring a permit involves changing the structure of the house and performing electrical work for closet lighting. A permit can cost between $100 and $450. If you’re installing a smaller reach-in closet, a permit may not be required, but always check with your local municipality and consult a closet designer or builder.

Different types of closets are defined mostly by size. A few different types of closets include:

  • A reach-in closet is a smaller closet that you can stand in front of and reach everything inside it. Aside from the size, the doors and the level of drywall finish are typically the largest price factors.  

  • A walk-in closet can be anything from a small 5-by-5 feet closet that has a narrow walkway with shelves on both sides to a 100 square foot bedroom-sized closet with shelving along the walls and plenty of room to move around in.

  • A built-in wardrobe often does not have a door and leaves the clothes and other contents open to the room, whereas a closet usually has a door to separate it from the rest of the room.

Yes, building a custom closet can definitely add value to your home. Creating a more useful and pleasing space to your home, especially a custom closet for prospective home buyers to imagine as their own, is likely to increase the value. However, avoid overdoing it with a closet that takes up too much space that’s otherwise more useful as living space, or paying extra for overly lavish materials and finishes that aren’t likely to add more value than they cost.
