Partial kitchen remodel - buy or build base?

16 years ago

Hi All,

I am going to remodel just part of our kitchen. The remodel will consist of two base cabinets - 18" and 36" and corresponding wall cabinets plus an over fridge cabinet and over range cabinet. All will match the existing cabinets on the other side of the kitchen - painted, simple shaker style doors and drawer fronts.

I am 100% committed to building the wall cabinets (I want deeper than the standard and have done this before), but am wondering if buying the base cabinets would be a good option. I want all the nice blum hardware and boy does that add up when you buy the parts. I'm trying not to wimp out here, but I don't see the cost/benefit of building the base cabinets myself (and I have plenty of projects). However, where to go? Online has a million places with cheap looking stuff. I'm not crazy about going to Lowes or Home Depot and I wonder if a real custom kitchen place would want to waste time with such a small order? Any good online sources - that have blum soft close and more?

Thanks in advance.
