Custom Cabinet Builders in Ithaca
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsNovember 13, 2015
“John Bishop designed and built us a live edge table after spending a couple of hours with us at his shop. We selected from dozens of log slabs from trees he cut on his property, cut and dried himself. He sent us some drawings, and we settled on a design. The result was beyond even our high expectations, and he was great to work with. We recommend him without reservation!”

“The people at Kitchen Express were extremely knowledgable and professional. They took an extensive period of time to assist with the layout for our kitchen including coming to our home before, during and after the project. They also worked very closely with our general contractors who did the instillation. Finally, the quality of their cabinetry was excellent.”

“Ray Hoover is simply the best, most fastidious craftsman of custom face-frame cabinets in the area. He expects the workmanship from his shop to be impeccable; any tiny flaws are immediately resolved. I first saw his work in my friend's new home. He made and installed my new custom cherry kitchen cabinets. His price is comparable to those of much lower quality. He carefully matches the grain of the wood on the door panel so that it appears to be one plank. The hardware - door hinges, soft close, full extension drawers - is top quality. Ray will work with you to design custom features, such as my paper towel cubby. I was able to make changes to the design almost up until the date he started construction. Ray 's team installed my cabs in one day, on exactly the day he had scheduled weeks before. I'm told that he is always on time..Another contractor looked at my cabinets and said they were about the best he'd ever seen. Ray has a showroom where you can see two display kitchens. If you're anywhere near Penn Yan, you owe it to yourself to get a quote from Ray.”

“After shopping in our local Lowes store and collecting all the recommendations we needed, we had replacement storm doors installed in summer of 2013 and the Lowes installer didn't quite do the complete job required, so representatives of the store kindly came to our home to evaluate, and agreed that the quality of work wasn't 100%. They kindly offered to have the issue fixed by a different installer who came out and did a 110% job, no questions asked! Because they handled the issue with such friendliness and professionalism, I trust them enough to return in the future and continue to utilize them with my home improvement projects.”

If you’re having trouble finding stock cabinets for your home in Ithaca, NY, then you may consider installing custom cabinets to meet your storage needs. On Houzz, you can browse through our network of custom cabinet professionals who are skilled at installing cabinets in many different sizes, shapes and materials. To learn more about the benefits of custom cabinetry, average project cost, preparing for a consultation and hiring a custom cabinet company near you, read more below.

What’s the difference between prefab and custom cabinets?
The main difference between prefabricated and custom cabinets is that the latter is made specifically for your home. With custom cabinets, you can work with a professional to find materials, designs and finishings that match the rest of your home. Aside from being functional and beautiful, custom cabinets are durable and highly customizable to solve even the trickiest storage needs.

What are the benefits of custom-built cabinets?
Even though stock cabinets are more affordable, custom made cabinets provide a range of benefits that make them easy to use in your home. Whether you need cabinets for your kitchen, bathroom, garage or bedroom, this type of custom solution can fit in any space and complement your interior design.

You can have full control over the finished product of your cabinet design. By selecting hinges, knobs, drawer pulls, cabinet faces and frames that you love, it’ll be easy to coordinate your cabinet style with other furniture in your home. Aside from just being beautiful, custom cabinets maximize your storage space and accommodate everyone’s storage needs.

How much do custom cabinets cost?
The price of custom cabinets varies by the number of cabinets and the material you choose. Generally, cabinet contractors estimate the cost per unit or linear foot. The average cost for custom cabinets when purchased by linear foot is roughly $800, while a prefabricated unit is around $500.

The cabinet material may impact the price estimate by linear foot or by unit. The most affordable custom cabinet material includes MDF, particle board, plywood and laminate. If you want to elevate your custom cabinet design, then materials like mahogany, cherry, maple and white oak are great to use. Each material has its own benefits, from being durable to more attractive. Before deciding on a specific material, make sure to speak with a contractor about what might work best for your needs.

What is the average timeline for custom cabinet installation?
There are three major steps in custom cabinet services, including design, fabrication, and installation. The design stage usually takes about 2 to 3 weeks to complete and consists of an initial consultation meeting, detailed kitchen measurements, as well as design visualization. The time to fabricate custom cabinets may vary depending on the number and complexity of the cabinets being built; however, in most cases the fabrication time can range from 6 weeks to 12 weeks. And finally, the last step is installing the custom cabinets, which normally takes 4 to 6 days to complete the installation. From the initial consultation to final installation, most custom cabinet projects ultimately take 2 to 4 months.
