Estimated Cost for Built Ins with Fireplace

4 years ago

Hi all,

Hope you’re all had a great week. Just wanted to get your thoughts on how much you think it would cost to recreate the picture below. I already have the fireplace and surround. So you can exclude that from your guess.

Thanks so much!

$500 dollars to build ours, I WIN. But we did it ourselves. But then we built the whole damn house ourselves took 3 years to build the house and 1 month to build the shelves. Custom bookshelves are really expensive. I think Kristin Petro is right on the money.

6K done by you, if you have 12K worth of tools and experience using them. 15K, done by a cabinet pro who has the experience, tools, license, and insurance.

Quality custom floating shelves and their hidden supports are pricey. White oak even pricier. Including framing and drywalling the arches, I suspect this is a $10k-$15k job depending on your market.
