Is it right for you?

Are custom cabinets right for your Wilbraham kitchen?

Custom cabinets make sense when the old ones are failing, the layout needs to change, or you want real wood in a species and finish you choose. Wilbraham sits between Springfield and Palmer, so we're usually just a short drive from your door, and Raymond comes to you for the visit.

A good fit if

  • You want solid-wood doors in maple, white oak, red birch or cherry, painted, stained or clear
  • Your existing boxes are failing, or the layout needs to change
  • You want a full kitchen, island, pantry or built-in made to measure
  • You want soft-close hinges and drawer glides as standard

Not the right fit if

  • Your boxes are sound and the layout works. Refacing in Wilbraham is usually the better value
  • You only want a new color. Cabinet painting in Wilbraham is the budget-friendly route
  • You bought cabinets elsewhere and want them installed. We install only cabinets we build or supply

The process

How custom cabinets work with us

Raymond is personally involved in every project, from the first visit through the final inspection.

  1. Phone call
    Talk through goals, budget and timeline

    We start with a phone consultation. A ballpark is often possible from photos.

  2. In-home visit
    Measure and plan

    If needed, Raymond visits your Wilbraham home to measure, evaluate the space and bring samples. You then get a written proposal with scope, materials, options and pricing.

  3. Deposit and selections
    Reserve your spot and order materials

    A deposit and your selections reserve your place on the schedule. Payment terms are spelled out on your written quote.

  4. Build and install
    Made to order, finished and installed

    Your cabinets are made by local Western Massachusetts shops, finished in our spray booth and installed, with a final inspection at the end.

What's included

What a custom cabinet project can include

Planning

What to expect at your home

On-site installation takes 1 to 3 weeks, and the kitchen is a full work zone. For a full replacement, the cabinetry takes up to about 3 weeks, and everything else, including countertops and flooring, up to about 8 weeks in total.

Scheduling is usually 3 to 6 months from accepting a quote to the start of work. It varies with the season and the size of the job, and Raymond confirms the timing.

Comparing options

Custom cabinets, refacing or painting

Painting is the most budget-friendly option and refacing sits in the middle. New custom cabinets cost the most, but they're the route to a new layout. If your existing boxes are sound, see cabinet refacing in Wilbraham or cabinet painting in Wilbraham.
