"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 questions, answered by experts

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.

Kitchen cabinets can hold a whopping 500 pounds, but that is only possible if you attach them correctly. They must be anchored securely with long screws driven straight into the wall studs for solid support. Depending on your cabinets and the installer, some upper cabinets use specialized hanging systems or brackets for extra reinforcement, ensuring they stay put no matter how full they get.

It’s much less expensive to build your own garage shelves, and you’ll still get stable, long-lasting, and sharp-looking shelves. Garage storage systems cost between $615 and $2,635, with the national average of about $1,455. Building DIY garage shelves typically costs less than $500, and the quality of a DIY garage shelving unit will almost always be higher than what you could buy premade for the equivalent price.

In many homes, upper cabinets are installed with a 1- to 2-foot gap between the tops and the ceiling. However, many homeowners extend their cabinets to the ceiling to gain extra storage and a polished, built-in look.

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.
