Custom Cabinetry in Houston, TX
Cabinets are the single biggest driver of how a kitchen looks and functions — and the line item that fails first when someone cuts the wrong corner. We design and build to your exact space in inset, frameless European, shaker, or traditional door styles, in painted hardwoods or stained Texas species. Real wood boxes, dovetailed drawers, soft-close everything. No stock-sized compromises.
Our process
- Design consultation — Measure the space, discuss door style, finish, layout, and storage needs.
- Shop drawings & quote — Detailed elevations showing every cabinet, dimensions, hardware, and finish.
- Build & install — Cabinets are built, delivered, and installed by our crew — with on-site adjustments to ensure perfect fit.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much do custom cabinets cost in Houston? +
Custom kitchen cabinetry in Houston ranges from $15,000 for a small kitchen with painted shaker doors up to $60,000+ for a large kitchen with inset doors, specialty finishes, and custom built-ins. Expect 30–40% of a kitchen remodel budget to go to cabinets.
Custom vs semi-custom vs stock cabinets — what's the difference? +
Stock cabinets are pre-built in standard sizes. Semi-custom allows modifications in ½-inch increments and limited finishes. True custom cabinets are built to your exact dimensions, in any door style, finish, and interior configuration — fitted like furniture to your space.
What door styles do you offer? +
Shaker (most popular), inset (traditional, premium look), frameless European (modern), flat-panel, Shaker with beaded inset, and custom profiles. We match historic homes or modernize with clean lines.
Painted vs stained — which holds up better in Houston? +
Both last decades with proper prep. Painted finishes show wear sooner at pinch points (drawer edges) but are easy to touch up. Stained hardwoods hide wear better and age gracefully. For a family kitchen, we often recommend painted perimeter cabinets with a stained island for contrast.
Do you refinish or just build new? +
Both. If the cabinet boxes are solid wood and in good shape, refacing (new doors + drawer fronts + veneer on boxes) is often 50-70% the cost of new. We'll tell you honestly whether your existing cabinets are worth saving.
What's the lead time for custom cabinets? +
6–10 weeks from order to delivery for most projects. This drives the overall kitchen remodel schedule — we order cabinets first so demo and rough-in can happen while they're being built.
