Types of Kitchen Cabinets We Install
We can install a large variety of kitchen cabinets for you and your home – whether you’re looking for modern hardwood, framed glass cabinets, laminate cabinets, you name it. If you’re unsure, not a problem. Our design team is here to help you find the best material, and look for your future kitchen.
Traditional Hardwood
Traditional hardwood is used in a lot of households around the United States. It’s sleek, sturdy, and reliable at the end of the day.
They do require a lot of care however, and they’re unfortunately on the slightly costly side of things.
Veneer Wood
Veneer wood is like the cheaper hardwood. It looks the same on the outside, so it gives you the same feel as traditional hardwood.
The downside is you have to be pretty cautious because they’re much easier to damage than the other woods on the list.
Plywood
Plywood is a pretty versatile option when it comes to budget and looks, as you can kind of make them to be what you want. However, like veneer wood, sometimes it will chip.
On the positive side, its very sturdy and resilient to denting – so if you ever hit it with something by accident or so on, you won’t do any damage.
Glass Frame Cabinets
Cabinets with glass frames tend to come with laminate materials, and combined can really spice up your interior. Being able to see inside is a major plus when it comes to beauty and if you’re ever trying to find something.
They will of course require the most care, with glass cleaner and so on.
Custom Wood Cabinets
We work will all wood materials to bring your kitchen the exact look you’re going for. If you want to turn your kitchen into a Victorian era kitchen or completely flat modern kitchens without handles, our team can install it for you.
You have complete freedom over what you want, it’s your kitchen after all.

Our Process
Step 1: Design Consultation & Measurement
We start with a free meeting to understand what you want, what you need, and what fits your budget.
During our meeting, we’ll help you pick cabinet styles that match your taste, good materials and finishes, and the right hardware for your space.
Then our crew measures your kitchen, including appliances, windows, doors, and other features. We use special tools to make sure everything is exact, because even small mistakes can cause big problems during installation.
Step 2: Demolition and Area Preparation
Once your new cabinets are ready, our team will carefully remove your old ones. We protect your floors, countertops, and nearby areas from damage during removal.
Our crew then cleans the space and checks the walls, floors, and plumbing to fix any problems that might affect the new cabinets. This prep work makes sure the installation goes smoothly and helps avoid surprises.
Step 3: Professional Cabinet Installation
Our installers mount your new cabinets safely and correctly. We start with the base cabinets and make sure they’re level and lined up. Then we move to the wall cabinets and attach each one firmly to the wall studs for strong support.
We adjust as needed to work with uneven walls or floors. This way everything looks clean and smooth. We also line up all the doors and drawers so they open and close easily and look great together.
Step 4: Hardware, Finishing, and Final Inspection
After all cabinets are installed, we add the final touches. This includes adding hardware like knobs, pulls, and hinges based on what you chose. We make final adjustments so all doors and drawers open and close smoothly.
Our team checks everything to make sure it meets our standards and what you expected. Then we clean up the area completely, removing all packaging and debris. You’re left with a beautiful, working kitchen that’s ready to use right away.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does kitchen cabinet replacement cost in Sacramento?
Kitchen cabinet replacement costs in Sacramento typically range from $5,000 to $25,000, depending on several factors. Stock cabinets offer the most affordable option ($5,000-$10,000 for an average kitchen), while semi-custom cabinets provide more design flexibility ($10,000-$20,000). Custom cabinets, which offer unlimited design possibilities and premium materials, generally start at $20,000 for a standard kitchen.
Additional factors affecting cost include cabinet material (with solid wood being more expensive than MDF or particleboard), the complexity of your kitchen layout, and whether structural modifications are needed. For the most accurate pricing, we recommend scheduling a free in-home consultation where we can assess your specific needs and provide a detailed quote.
In Sacramento County, professional kitchen backsplash installation typically ranges from $50-$60 per square foot, depending on material choice and complexity. Basic ceramic tile installations start around $50 per square foot, while premium materials like natural stone or glass mosaics range from $50+ per square foot. Complex patterns, custom designs, or difficult demolition may increase costs. We provide detailed, transparent quotes after assessing your specific project requirements during our free consultation.
How long does it take to install new kitchen cabinets?
The timeline for kitchen cabinet installation varies based on project scope, but typically follows this schedule:
For a standard kitchen with stock cabinets, the installation itself usually takes 2-3 days. Semi-custom and custom cabinet installations may take 3-5 days due to increased complexity and precision requirements. However, the entire process from initial consultation to completed installation generally spans 4-8 weeks.
This timeline includes 1-2 weeks for design and measurement, 2-6 weeks for cabinet ordering and delivery (with custom cabinets taking the longest), and the final installation period. We provide detailed timeline estimates during your consultation and keep you informed throughout the process to minimize disruption to your daily routine.
Most standard kitchen backsplash installations in Sacramento homes take 2-3 days to complete. Day one typically involves demolition (if needed) and wall preparation. Day two focuses on tile installation, and day three includes grouting, sealing, and final cleanup. Larger kitchens or complex designs may require additional time. We always provide a specific timeline during your consultation and work efficiently to minimize disruption to your daily routine.
What's the difference between stock, semi-custom, and custom cabinets?
Stock cabinets are pre-manufactured in standard sizes and limited finish options. They’re the most affordable and quickest option, typically available for immediate delivery or within 1-2 weeks. While economical, they offer limited customization and may require fillers to fit your space precisely.
Semi-custom cabinets offer a middle ground with more size options, finishes, and features than stock cabinets. Manufacturers build these cabinets to order with some customization options, including modified depths, heights, and specialty storage features. Delivery typically takes 3-4 weeks.
Custom cabinets are built specifically for your kitchen with virtually unlimited options for materials, sizes, designs, and features. They provide the perfect fit for unique spaces and can accommodate special requirements or unusual dimensions. While they represent the highest investment and longest lead time (6-8 weeks or more), they offer unmatched quality and personalization.
Should I reface or replace my kitchen cabinets?
Cabinet refacing is ideal when your existing cabinet boxes are in good structural condition, you’re satisfied with your current layout, and you’re primarily looking for aesthetic updates. Refacing involves replacing door and drawer fronts and applying new veneer to exposed cabinet surfaces, typically costing 40-60% less than full replacement.
Full cabinet replacement is recommended when your current cabinets have structural damage, you want to change the layout or storage configuration, or your cabinets are poorly constructed. While more expensive initially, replacement allows for complete redesign and often provides better long-term value for significantly outdated kitchens.
During our free consultation, we can assess your current cabinets and help determine which option makes the most sense for your specific situation, considering both your immediate goals and long-term plans for your home.
Can you install cabinets in a new kitchen layout?
Yes, we specialize in both replacement installations and complete kitchen reconfigurations. Our design team can help you reimagine your kitchen layout to improve workflow, maximize storage, and better utilize your available space. We can modify or completely change your kitchen’s footprint, including moving cabinets to different walls or creating new arrangements like islands or peninsula configurations.
Layout changes may require additional services such as plumbing or electrical modifications, which we can coordinate with our network of licensed professionals. During the design phase, we’ll discuss how layout changes might affect your timeline and budget, providing transparent information to help you make informed decisions about your project scope.
Do you help with the design and material selection?
Absolutely! Our comprehensive design services are a key part of our cabinet installation process. We begin with an in-depth consultation to understand your style preferences, functional needs, and budget considerations. Our experienced designers will guide you through material options, color selections, hardware choices, and organizational features to create a cohesive design that reflects your personal style.
We provide 3D renderings of your new kitchen to help you visualize the final result before making decisions. Our showroom displays sample door styles, finish options, and hardware selections so you can see and feel the materials firsthand. Throughout the process, our designers offer expert advice on current trends, timeless options, and practical considerations to ensure your new cabinets are both beautiful and functional for years to come.
