What is the typical turnaround time for a custom kitchen project?
Every project is unique, but most custom kitchens take between 8-12 weeks from design approval to installation. This timeline can vary based on the complexity of the project and current workload. We'll provide a more accurate estimate during our initial consultation.
-

Do you handle demolition of the existing kitchen?

-
How many site visits should I expect?
Typically, you can expect 1-2 site visits from us. We always conduct a thorough site visit after installation to ensure everything meets our high standards. Depending on your project's complexity and the designer's plans, we may need an additional visit earlier in the process. For example, if there are questions about load-bearing walls or other structural elements, we'll schedule a visit to assess these factors in person.
-
What types of materials do you use?
We specialize in using high-quality, reclaimed wood for our custom cabinetry. This not only provides a unique, characterful look but is also an eco-friendly choice. We source our reclaimed wood locally in Connecticut. We also offer a range of finishes and can work with other materials upon request.
-
What is your pricing structure?
Our custom kitchens typically start at $15,000, with final pricing dependent on the size of your kitchen, the complexity of the design, and the materials chosen. We provide detailed, transparent pricing as part of our project proposal process.
-
When is the deposit due and how much is it?
After you approve the design and before we begin crafting your custom cabinetry, we require a 75% deposit. This deposit allows us to secure the necessary materials and begin the craftsmanship process. The remaining balance is due upon completion of the project.
