"Thank you Lou and Gib!, For the second time you make all things new.. I hired Lou Log Kitchens to re-do my Orchard Park home kitchen. We built the home and that builder disappointed us greatly. So the reface was done by this company.. When we downsized and bought a home in another area I saw the cabinets were of the same quality of our first builder. No worries, I bought our home knowing I would need LOU LOG KITCHENS again. He and his company did not disappoint. My new kitchen in my present home turned out spectacular. As a side note: I saw a great growth in the years in between. Lou Log Kitchen invested in better and even more efficient equipment and continued to create a better, more cleaner way of doing cabinets. Their efficiency was noticed and was remarkable. Thank you Lou and Gib. You are outstanding and men of character and integrity which I appreciate immensely. Debbie Keem Elma, NY."

Custom cabinets made from solid wood tend to last the longest, remaining in good condition for 20 to 50 years. Cabinet lifespan depends on upkeep, the amount of heat and moisture inside the home, and general wear and tear. Popular hardwood options include oak, cherry, maple, walnut, and hickory. Its longevity means that solid wood is more expensive than alternative materials like furniture board, laminate, and plywood. The average cost of solid wood cabinets ranges from $100 to $1,200 per linear foot.
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.
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.
