New kitchen cabinets are the answer when refacing can’t fix what’s wrong: boxes that have swelled from a leak, shelves that sag, or a layout that fights you every time you cook.

Not sure whether you need new cabinets or a refacing? The services overview compares the two side by side.

Stock, Semi-Custom, or Custom?

  • Stock cabinets. Standard sizes and a set range of door styles and finishes. Fastest and most affordable; a good fit when the layout is simple and standard widths work.
  • Semi-custom cabinets. More door styles, finishes, and depth or height modifications, plus better interiors. The most common choice for a full replacement.
  • Custom wood cabinets. Built to your dimensions and specifications with the door style, wood species, and finish you want. The right choice for unusual layouts, tall ceilings, or a specific look.

We’ll walk you through the trade-offs at the in-home visit. Soft-close hinges and drawer glides are standard on the lines we recommend.

What a Cabinet Replacement Can Change

Replacing the cabinets is the moment to fix the things refacing can’t. Taller uppers that use the space below a 9- or 10-foot ceiling. A pantry run where a broom closet used to be. Deep drawers instead of base cabinets with doors. An island, if the room has the clearance. If the existing layout works and the boxes are sound, we’ll say so and point you to cabinet refacing instead.

How Installation Works

  1. Measure and plan. We measure the room, note plumbing and electrical locations, and lay out the new run with you.
  2. Selection. You pick the line, door style, finish, and interior features, and we confirm lead times.
  3. Removal. Old cabinets come out, and we check the walls and floor for anything that needs attention before the new boxes go in.
  4. Installation. Cabinets are set level and plumb, scribed to the walls, and fastened to studs. Doors and drawers are aligned, and hardware goes on.
  5. Finish and walkthrough. Toe kicks, fillers, and trim are installed so the run reads as built-in, and we review the kitchen with you.

The homeowners whose kitchens we’ve re-cabineted describe the same experience: one person measured, one person installed, and the questions got answered along the way.

Cabinets for Southwest Florida Kitchens

Humidity is the enemy of cabinet boxes here. We favor plywood construction over particleboard where the budget allows, seal cut edges, and pay attention to the sink base, where cabinet damage usually starts. In canal homes and older concrete-block (CBS) houses, walls are rarely straight, so scribing and fillers matter more than the catalog suggests.

What Affects the Cost

The cabinet line and construction, the number of boxes, door style and finish, interior features like drawers and pull-outs, and whether the layout changes. We don’t quote from square-footage formulas; the estimate after the visit itemizes cabinets, installation, and trim separately.

Kitchen Cabinet FAQs

How much should I expect to pay for kitchen cabinets? It varies with the line and the size of the kitchen. Stock lines cost the least; custom wood cabinetry costs the most. We give you a written, itemized number after measuring your kitchen rather than a range that may not apply.

Do you install cabinets I buy somewhere else? Our projects include both supply and installation so the line, the fit, and the install are one responsibility. Ask us about your situation at the consultation.

How long does a cabinet replacement take? Lead time for the cabinets is usually the longest part. Once they arrive, installation is usually the quickest part, and your estimate includes the expected schedule.

Can you change my kitchen layout? Yes, within the cabinet run. Taller uppers, a pantry run where a closet was, or deeper drawer bases are common. Moving plumbing or electrical is remodel work outside what we do; we’ll tell you at the visit if your plan needs those trades first.
