Cabinets for small house

8 years ago

My house is worth around $120,000. We need a full kitchen remodel and want well made cabinets. We do not want to overspend for the cost of the home? The quotes we have are $7,400 for cliq and $8,700 for Mid Continent. Does anyone have any brand recommendations for this scenario?

    It's a small kitchen, then presumably[?].... many times a local custom cabinet maker can be cost efficient, if you have spots which require size or other modifications...to get the most from your space. It depends on what you have for layout and aesthetic goals, really. Best is to show a picture. Shiloh is really popular these days ….I think Mid Continent became the kitchen showrooms standard mid priced offering here in the Midwest, a few years ago. Shiloh might be a bit more, but nicer offerings/finishes/etc. Depends on your desires. don't rule out Ikea and then do a fabulous floor and counters. A small walled in space: I might do Ikea. Small but open to living space...I might try Shiloh or local cabinet person....and something special in the design.

    Small eat in.

    Pretty much one 13 foot wall and an extra cabinet beside the stove.

    Do you have an Ikea near you?

    I would nail down your budget first....price out electrical upgrade, soffit removal and new floor. I guess you are working with the 13 foot wall and small range wall . You can do things like deeper counters to give you more usable space. 18 in dishwasher and single bowl sink so you can get as many drawers for storage..etc. What is your ventilation?.....you do want something and that can be more costly than sometimes people think....but worth it. You will get help here if you show your plan.

    Ikea. Best value for the money especially if you put the boxes together yourself. And yes they're easy to put together.

    Yes they are easy. I built all our cabs and my husband installed them.

    For a house this price, Ikea will be best for you. But you must assemble them yourself to be cost-efficient.

    IKEA really is a good choice. I opted for them myself. You can probably build the boxes yourself and hire out the install with someone local if you don't feel capable (that's what we did). Or pay for IKEA's company to build and install. I think that runs around $100 a cabinet.
