Teagan communications thought the process from the initial meeting, to gaining a quote and completing the job was fantastic and most appreciated. He was always available and followed through on his promises. I was very happy with Plank and Pine and would recommend them to other home owners."
"The installation process was very professional. They crew was very knowledgeable and experienced with the installation of the cabinets and other carpentry works. Also they were very helpful and friendly on things that needed a better ideas from carpenters to change it. In addition, they were very transparent throughout the installation and work on the stairs. I would hire them for my future projects, in carpentry work, kitchen cabinets installation and other changes around the kitchen."
"Paul and Jay were a pleasure to work with. We added on a 10x14 addition (dining room) to the house. They were extremely flexible as the design location and final specifications changed several times. The price was very fair and allowed for 2-3 progress payments along the way. Jay's attention to detail in putting the hard wood floor down was amazing as he matched panel to panel from the connecting room. They brought in their contractors for HVAC and electrical ( pricey there ) but that helped us a lot! Highly recommended.. Thanks again Paul"
"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"
There are some tips when hiring a cabinet installer that’ll help prepare you to create a new space. When installing new cabinets, keep the following in mind:
Hire the same cabinet installer professional to measure, design, and install the cabinets, as opposed to jumping between companies.
Discuss what types of cabinets the installer offers, including stock, semi-custom, and custom, to give yourself options.
Discuss financing options with your installer, as this project can be expensive depending on your chosen cabinets.
Discuss your cabinet installer’s prior experience, including asking for photos of previous projects.
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.
Most assemblies take 1-3 hours, but larger units or those requiring wall mounting may take longer.
In most cases, it’s more affordable to refinish your cabinets than replace them, with refinishing costs averaging $3,000 and replacement costs around $9,000. However, there are some instances in which it’s better to replace your cabinets, like if they’re an outdated style, badly damaged and beyond repair, or a sub-par material, like fiberboard. In all other cases, it’s usually a better idea to have a professional refinish them to save money and restore their original condition.
There are several ways to save money and keep costs down when building an outdoor kitchen. Building on an existing patio can reduce the cost of a new foundation, especially if it's close to the house. You can also save on utility line installation by opting out of a sink and using a built-in propane or charcoal grill. If you have the skills, tackling parts of the project yourself—like building or finishing cabinets, installing fixtures, and constructing seating—can lead to significant savings. Reusing appliances you already have is another great way to cut costs. Finally, consider starting small with just the essential components and adding more features over time as your budget allows.
