Featured Reviews for Custom Cabinet Builders in Illinois

Top Drawer Carpentry LLC
Custom Cabinet Builders in Illinois
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJanuary 15, 2014
“Beautiful work! Top Drawer added crown molding to our family room addition. He matched the existing molding in the living room and dining room perfectly. His price was very fair and his attention to detail was exactly what I was looking for. Very professional.”
Garman Painting Custom Decorating
Custom Cabinet Builders in Illinois
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 8, 2015
“Mike painted most of the interior of my house. He was very professional in all respects from the signing of the contract through completion. He repaired several coats of peeling and cracked plaster resulting from a leak (prior to new roof) from the attic into the living room ceiling. The job is so perfect that there is no longer any evidence of the leak. He helped me pick out colors and suggested a couple of color changes resulting in a more attractive appearance than if I had insisted on my original choice. He even replaced two ceiling light fixtures as well. I highly recommend Mike Garman for your painting needs!”

“I hired PJ Carpentry to replace trim around a three car garage. He was responsive, did not go over estimate, was clean, and did an excellent job. I requested use of Azek and he used the material that I requested. I recommend PJ carpentry.”

There is nothing they can't do and they are meticulous and always leave my house in perfect condition. I highly recommend them.”
Relentless Carpentry Inc.

“Work done November 2016. Bannister work, wainscot, and trim/crown work completed. Competitive pricing, quick and flawless work. Would definitely contact again for future projects!!”
Nest Construction
Custom Cabinet Builders in Illinois
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsOctober 6, 2013
“Nest Construction Took my plain, boring deck area and transformed it into a fantastic outdoor living space. The owner, Bryan, and his team constructed bush and tree planters, privacy screens, and couches. Bryan stayed within the agreed-upon budget and the work is very high quality. I would recommend Nest Construction for all types of patio/deck work as well as interior carpentry projects.”
Midwest Trimworks

Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsOctober 21, 2015
“Midwest Trimworks provided an exceptional experience from estimate to project completion. They were able to exceed expectations on a very challenging project and did so in a timely manner. We especially appreciate being consulted while the project was being executed to ensure that the work met our expectations. Midwest Trimworks is punctual, professional, highly-skilled and creative. We would not hesitate recommending them, or employing them again. World-class!”

“I've known Mike for going on 8 years now, and over that time he's done a lot of work for me. He is absolutely meticulous and can tackle the most difficult of situations. His work is spot on perfect. His attention to detail is unmatched and he often makes design recommendations that I haven't considered, but turned out to be far better than the designs or ideas I originally proposed. Perhaps the most important traits to consider (besides skill of course) when hiring someone to work on your home is honesty and integrity--he's one of the best people I've ever worked with and I have complete trust in him. You will not be disappointed if you hire Mike to do some work for you and your friends and neighbors will be so jealous when they see what he's done!!”
ComfortBuild

Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsOctober 23, 2017
“Excellent carpentry! Mack did a fantastic job helping to design and build a custom mantel for my client project. His estimate was timely and was even able to do the job a week earlier than I requested! I'll definitely be working with him again.”
MasterJohnny Inc
Custom Cabinet Builders in Illinois
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 5, 2015
“Chris created some built-in shelves and a desk for us in our third bedroom/office and fixed some door issues we were having. Overall I was very happy with the work completed and I'd recommend Chris for other jobs. He was communicative, courteous, on time, and completed the work when he said it was going to be done. His prices are competitive and he's willing to work with you to figure out a solution to your needs with the constraints you have.”

If you’re having trouble finding stock cabinets for your home in Illinois, 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.

Where to find custom cabinet professionals near me?
On Houzz, we make it easy to find trustworthy home professionals, including custom cabinet makers, right in your neighborhood. Simply enter your city or address and select a specific distance away to get a list of cabinet makers in Illinois. Directly contact a professional on Houzz by selecting contact and submitting a query that includes more information about your project. Once you’ve submitted an inquiry, a custom cabinet professional will follow-up to provide you with more details.

How to prepare for a custom cabinet consultation?
In order to make custom cabinet installation as easy as possible, here are a few tips you can follow before meeting with an Illinois professional. Start by collecting pictures that highlight the materials and styles you’d like to use, including door faces, drawer pulls and hardware and environmental images that show off the look and feel of your preferred custom cabinets. You can use Houzz to collect all of your inspiration in one place by creating an Ideabook and once you’re done collecting photos, measure your space and write down your preferred budget and project timeline.
