"Amazing to work with. I provided a rough sketch of our idea and he made it happen. Provided updates along the way and stopped and asked us questions if he was unsure about a specific detail while he was in the process of construction. The table he built was Made to last and have not had any issues."

"I had a wonderful experience working with Mark. He painted my 1990's builders' grade cabinets in the kitchen. I got his name from a neighbor who also used him. He was able to give me a quote the same day. The work took a month to complete from first contact to completion. He took the cabinet doors to his shop to paint which was the longest part of the process. Then he returned on 3 consecutive days to paint the frames and to do the installation. I should also mention that he did a sample on one of my doors since a friend recommended a particular color, so I was able to compare that color with a more standard cream color, which I ultimately went with. He was very easy to work with, always responded to text messages and he is very good at what he does. I am 100% satisfied."

Cabinet Making questions, answered by experts

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.

Frameless cabinets fit the space-saving, minimalist attributes of European-style kitchens more than face frame models. That also makes them a good pick for apartments and dorms, as well as any more modern-style kitchen.

If your walls aren’t plumb, it can make installing frameless cabinets difficult because they require precise measurements so they don’t show imperfections. Any dissymmetry with installation can cause the doors and drawers to not function correctly. Frameless cabinets are also thicker and heavier, making them harder to install by yourself.

It is typically cheaper to buy stock or semi-custom cabinets than to build custom ones. The price difference is significant:

  • Custom Cabinets: Cost between $500 and $1,200 per linear foot. This price is affected by materials, size, design complexity, and door styles. For instance, a simple slab door's materials might cost $60-$70, while a decorative mullioned glass door could be $100-$200.

  • Semi-Custom Cabinets: Cost between $150 and $700 per linear foot.

  • Stock Cabinets: Cost between $100 and $400 per linear foot.

While buying pre-built cabinets is more cost-effective, building custom cabinets allows for full modification to fit unique spaces, such as rooms with high ceilings or unusual layouts, which stock options cannot accommodate.

Medicine cabinets are a convenient storage solution, but they’re not the only option. People often use alternatives like open shelving, recessed wall niches, freestanding cabinets, and mirrored bathroom vanities to replace traditional medicine cabinets. These offer storage space while allowing for a more customized and modern look in the bathroom.
