"We recently had custom built-in bookshelves designed and installed by CT Yankee Crafts, and we couldn't be happier. From start to finish, the experience was an absolute pleasure. Nick was very communicative throughout the whole process, and he listened to our vision, then translated it onto paper and then into a beautiful masterpiece and a focal point in our new home. The best part is filling them up! Watching our book collection find its new home on these gorgeous, sturdy shelves has been so satisfying. It has completely transformed the room into a cozy sanctuary. Highly recommended for any custom woodwork!"
"They were extremely friendly, and the work was started and done on time. They communicated well and the price was more than fair. Would highly recommend."
"Matt has done multiple projects for me, including kitchen cabinet refacing, applying new kitchen tile, kitchen floor and all new inside doors. Everything was done timely and with excellence. Matt gave me an estimate and stayed within budget. He arrives on time and cleans up as he works. He is very polite and takes the time to answer questions completely. While he was here for my door replacement, I asked him if he could install a flag on my house, that would require a base built where it attached to the house. He completed it by improvising a beautiful custom wood mount for the flag. I highly recommend Matt for any project you may have."
"Yes I got the job and Homeowner was Happy and I the best was the office Material and everything I needed was Tristen Did Fabulous Job would work with on any project Thank you Tristen awesome Job"
"I recently had my shingle roof replaced and I?m very happy with the results. The team was professional, punctual, and completed the job efficiently. The quality of the work is excellent, and the new roof looks great. They kept the work area clean and communicated well throughout the process. I would definitely recommend them to anyone needing a roof replacement."
"We couldn’t be happier with the European Custom Cabinets team, who helped us transform our old, barely usable master bathroom! Our original bathroom was... let's call it "cozy." It had a single vanity sink and a freestanding shower that was so comically small, with such terrible water pressure, it felt like showering in a broom closet with a trickling garden hose. And, of course, no bathtub. We reached out to Angelo and the European Custom Cabinets team, shared our vision, and they turned our old, cramped, and dreary bathroom into a luxurious master bath spa! Now, we have a two-sink vanity, which means my wife can no longer hog the sink—a major victory! We also have a large soaking tub, which my wife and kids love (though if I'm being honest, most days it's a Barbie pool for the kids). Add to that new, spacious cabinets and a walk-in shower big enough to do a victory lap at the end of a tough day! We even had an outlet installed behind the new toilet for a bidet seat. Side note: I thought a bidet seat was the most ridiculous gift one could receive, but turns out it’s like the Rolls-Royce of bathroom experiences—warm seat, warm water, total luxury. There’s no going back to the savage, caveman days. Overall, we’re incredibly happy with the quality and professionalism of the entire team, and I highly recommend them to anyone considering a remodeling adventure!"
To estimate the cost of your kitchen cabinet installation, measure along the wall where you want your cabinets to be. Add up the linear feet, remembering to include both upper cabinets and lower cabinets in your total. Then, calculate the cost by multiplying the average price per linear foot of the type of cabinet you plan to install by the total length you measured.
Since melamine is a type of laminate, both types of cabinets are similar in features and benefits, but they also differ in some ways. Melamine is generally more affordable than laminate, while also being resistant to scratches, stains, and heat. However, melamine cabinets are also heavier and may easily splinter during installation. All in all, the choice between melamine and laminate cabinets will depend on your specific needs.
Yes, you can find inset cabinets that come in the same standard sizes as other types of kitchen cabinets. Or, as is the case with any type of cabinet, you can order custom inset cabinets in any dimensions you want. That said, inset cabinets sometimes have less storage space compared to frameless ones.
Solid wood is the most common material for cabinet bases. It’s a popular choice because it’s durable and will hold up over time. Oak, maple, cherry, hickory, and pine are all types of solid wood that can be used to build cabinet bases. Other options include plywood, medium-density fiberboard, and other types of manufactured lumber, but they need to be sealed properly to avoid swelling, separating, and delamination from moisture.
Yes, you can replace the cabinet hardware after installation to change up the look of your cabinets. Replacing the hinges, handles, pulls, and knobs allows you the design flexibility to match your other appliances or finish schemes to your liking. Talk with your kitchen designer or cabinet installer about the best hardware option for your cabinets.
