Custom Cabinets

Custom cabinets built into your kitchen remodel

When the new layout has an odd angle, a soffit coming down, or a wall of storage that only works with boxes built to the exact space, stock sizing will not get you there, and it is one more reason the cabinet decision belongs inside the bigger remodel plan, not a separate project. As part of your remodel, we design and build shaker, inset, and full-overlay cabinets in paint-grade MDF, maple, white oak, or walnut, plus matching pantry built-ins, coffee stations, and floating shelves sized and scheduled around the rest of the kitchen's new layout.

What do homeowners ask about Custom Cabinets?

How much do custom kitchen cabinets cost in Tampa Bay?

Custom cabinets in Tampa Bay typically run $25,000-$80,000+ for a full kitchen, depending on the wood, door style, and accessories. Paint-grade maple shaker lands in the $30,000-$50,000 range. Inset face-frame or rift-sawn white oak can push $60,000-$100,000+. Hardware and accessories are a meaningful share of the total.

Custom vs. semi-custom cabinets: which should I pick?

Custom is worth the cost when you need a non-standard size, a specific wood, or a layout that stock lines cannot cover. Semi-custom is a better value when standard widths can be adjusted to fit and you are happy with the door and finish options from a catalog. We help you decide at the design consult, not after the deposit.

What wood is best for Tampa Bay kitchen cabinets?

Maple and white oak are the most common in Tampa Bay remodels. Maple takes paint cleanly for shaker doors. White oak is the go-to for natural finishes, rift-sawn for a modern look and tight grain. Walnut is softer and better for accent panels or islands than full kitchens in heavy-use homes. Whatever the wood, we build the boxes on plywood, not particleboard, since Florida humidity and the daily splash zone around the sink and dishwasher will swell a lesser substrate over time.

How long do custom cabinets take from order to install?

Plan 8-14 weeks from final shop drawing sign-off to install for most Tampa Bay shops. The shop drawing and material sourcing step is the longest. Local shops can be faster than out-of-state distributors if you want to compress the timeline.

Can custom cabinets match my existing trim?

Yes. We measure the existing baseboard, casing, and crown profiles and match them on the cabinet ends, toe-kick, and any built-ins. If the existing wood is stained, we custom-tint new pieces to blend. If the existing pieces are painted, we use the same paint line and sheen for a clean match.
