There is quite a difference
between a cabinet maker and assembler from commercialized cabinetry. With
careful analysis, you can quickly determine the degree of professional skills
and get more comfortable with your potential maker. Prior to making a
commitment, do some research by asking friends and family as you consider their
reviews.
In choosing a cabinet maker, start
by thinking about the job you want your cabinets to perform, what you envision
them looking like, and how much of your budget you’re willing to spend on
storage. Building furniture from scratch allows designers unlimited
customization options. Treat cabinetry as an essential craft; that’s why you
should always have a few go-to resources in your black book. Never hesitate to
ask your cabinetmaker if the doors are his own or are ordered on the side. Be
honest with yourself here. No self-respecting professional would use mass
produced products available because they could risk damaging their reputation.
Green material choices including finishes have come a long way in years, and
are becoming more affordable and available every day. Hardware choices have
also improved. Make use of your cabinet makers’ professional skills in
assessing which type of material is to be used for your cabinetry.
The design phase is when all of
the important functional decisions need to be made, from how the finished
project will look, to which materials and finishes will be used. Your cabinet
maker will then be able to estimate the time to be spent on this phase and the
building process. Time lines will vary depending on the project and the cabinet
maker, but it is best and most affordable time to make changes. It becomes more
expensive, and the project will likely suffer if changes are made after the
product is done. Whether you are working with an architect, designer or
directly with your cabinetry contractor, make sure you have the final design
worked out on paper up front. Ask to review the shop drawings generated by the cabinetmaker
to ensure that both parties are on the same page.
License, reputation, and insurance
are your current concern to save you from having future problems.
