"I wanted to keep an old sink and Jeff designed a base cabinet to fit the space. It was a difficult install due to the age of the home and sink, but the end product is beautiful."

"I highly recommend New Color Cabinets. Raymond was extremely easy to get in contact with throughout the project. He was also punctual and neat. Most importantly, my cabinets look better than ever. I would hire New Color Cabinets for future projects in a heartbeat."

"Jose got the job done right (rehung fallen cabinet) plus went above and beyond by repairing cabinet doors, which had split when my kitchen cabinet fell to the floor. I also appreciated his customer service skills and clear interest in doing a great job."

"Roman is very detailed and knowledgeable. I've never had a contractor who tried that hard to understand the job even before coming for a quote. Very easy to get a hold of as well which is rare for contractors from this site. Would highly recommend."

"Matthew was a pleasure to work with from our initial meeting. He listened to our ideas, made suggestions, provided detailed options, and was very flexible as we iterated throughout the design process. We could not be happier with the outcome! He’s also incredibly kind and was very easy to work with - communication and flexibility was great! The photos show the after - he replaced the lower cabinets with new, larger cabinets that have a drawer, and build the entire bench with three drawers and got us the custom cushion. The functionality of this has been a game changer!"

"I couldn't be more thrilled with the work MM Cabinets did in my home. From the initial consultation to the final installation, Mirsad demonstrated professionalism, attention to detail, and a genuine passion for quality craftsmanship. He listened carefully to my ideas and offered expert suggestions that brought my vision to life even better than I imagined. The custom cabinets they built are not only beautiful but also incredibly functional, maximizing every inch of space with a seamless design. The materials are top-notch, and the finish is flawless. Installation was smooth, on time, and spotless—truly a stress-free experience. If you're looking for a cabinet company that combines artistry with practicality, look no further than MM Cabinets. I highly recommend them to anyone who values quality, reliability, and exceptional customer service."

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.

Building a bathroom cabinet can be cheaper than buying one, especially if you have woodworking skills and tools. The cost of materials can be less than that of a premade cabinet. However, buying a ready-made cabinet might be more convenient and cost-effective if you factor in your time and effort. Custom-built cabinets offer more flexibility in design and materials, while pre-made options provide ease and faster installation.

Durability and appearance are the two main drawbacks to installing budget kitchen cabinets, which are often made of less-durable wood or plastic. You're also limited to stock options, meaning you may have a small selection from which to choose.

On the plus side, you can always paint these more affordable kitchen cabinets to make them look the way you want.

Deciding whether to buy or build a kitchen island depends primarily on two things: your budget and your plans for the island. If you need a working sink or electrical access, you’re safest going with a custom unit. If not, look into a prefabricated unit.

The cost of bathroom cabinets is $550 on average. You could spend as low as $330 or as much as $42,000 or more, depending on the cabinet size and the type of cabinet you choose. 

Stock bathroom cabinets are the most cost-effective option, ranging from $40 to $500 on average. Semi-custom bathroom cabinets range from about $500 to $800 per unit (without installation costs) and offer a wider variety of door and drawer styles than stock cabinets. Custom cabinets range from $700 to $1,000 or more per unit before installation costs.
