Is it less expensive to buy cabinets or have them built?

• <div><p>It is much more cost-effective to purchase semi-custom and stock cabinets than to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/stock-custom-how-choose-best-cabinets.htm">build custom cabinets</a>. You’ll pay between <b>$500 and $1,200 per linear foot</b> for custom cabinets, <b>$100 to $650 per linear foot</b> for semi-custom, and <b>$100 to $300 per linear foot</b> for stock cabinets. However, stock cabinets don’t allow you to customize cabinetry for an odd-shaped room or one with high ceilings.</p></div>

What’s the difference between a walk-in pantry and a butler's pantry?

• <div><p>The main difference is size: a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-is-butlers-pantry.htm">butler's pantry</a> is much larger than a typical walk-in pantry. They are both primarily used for storage, however. Traditional butlers’ pantries also had private food prep and cleanup areas—complete with a sink, microwave, refrigerator, wine fridge, and countertop prep space. But, many newer walk-in pantries include the same items that make up a butler’s pantry.</p></div>

Mediocre. Let's say it didn't start of great when he showed up late for appointment but, gave them the benefit of the doubt because the price was great. I guess you get what you pay for. The communication was poor. They cut a plumbing pipe to get cabinets out of the kitchen and never paid for...

I bought an Angie's List Big-Deal for $299 for 8 hours of general contracting work. I had a floor to ceiling built in cabinet about 48" wide that I wanted to have the top part taken off so that the lower cabinet and shelf would be all that is left. I wanted to salvage the crown moulding around...

They are good and we've been happy with them. We had an emergency when the power came back after hurricane Sandy. Our furnace was making a terrible grinding noise in the basement and they came out right away to fix it.

"We can't express enough our genuine gratitude on the awesome job Mike and Nick did refacing numerous 7 yr. old painted cabinets. Totally unbelievable! They refaced all the kitchen cabinets up to our ceilings. Made legs for our granite kitchen table along with other custom things my husband wanted and refaced a powder room cabinet to the ceiling. The guest bathroom was also refaced. Finally, my bathroom was completely transformed. They added shelves to an enormous to the ceiling quadruple linen closet. Heightened and customized a large countertop, installed a larger sink plus added 2 additional drawers to my existing 4 drawers. Useless space under the sink, they put in a huge slide-in drawer. They can and will make anything you need or want and absolutely go above and beyond. Mike, Nick and Cheryl are extremely professional, personable and accommodating. We admire their super strong work ethic (never late and minutes for a lunch break). Always respectful and then hustled to finish a days work with smiles on their faces. I wish you could see all the work they did. They deserve 10 stars and the wait was well worth it--trust me. They were meticulous. Perfection at the highest level!!!! All this work was done in 4 days. Money very well spent and prices very reasonable. We trust and highly recommend them and the company (American Kitchen Refacing Inc.) they are affiliated with. Everyone deserves a promotion plus a bonus for ALL they can do."
