CABINETS: THE MAIN POINT OF HOME IMPROVEMENTS

As your family grows, storage areas will magically disappear. As a result, many homeowners choose to add as many cabinets to all rooms as possible. Whether it’s storing food, extra plates or office supplies, homeowners and interior designers are getting creative and resourceful when it comes to adding storage. Of all the elements of home improvement, the construction, door style, color, and material of your cabinets will make the strongest visual statement. They’ll also have the most impact on your wallet. Since choosing cabinets is such a large portion of the average home improvement project budget, understanding all the options is critical. 

What type of cabinet is best for you?

Stock or Production Cabinets. This type of cabinets invests most of its manufacturing dollar in a good, durable finish. It suffers from a limited number of styles, finishes, accessories, and hardware, and it requires space-wasting fillers to fit. The upside is that these cabinets have an entry-level price point and is usually in stock or available within a few days. It is perfect for investment properties or starter homes.

Semi-Custom Cabinets. These cabinets offer the consumer a selection of cabinet options. All of the 'standard' cabinet configurations and sizes available from a stock cabinet company will be available from a semi-custom cabinet company. The availability of size and style options allows you much greater freedom to create a home improvement layout that is tailored to the tastes and desires of the customer.

Custom Cabinets. Custom cabinets are made by skilled cabinet makers by hand - not on assembly lines.  Cabinet makers take pride in their work, using quality materials for a finished product that’s a work of art.  Custom cabinets are quality construction that’s built to last.

How much should your budget be?

If you want really inexpensive and really easy home improvements, then forget about the heavy-duty sanding and staining. Choosing custom made cabinets is not advisable for those tight on budget; maybe investing in more expensive cabinets in the future would be better. But if your budget is more than enough, custom cabinets are the best deals for you.

The inside of your home isn’t all that matters when it comes to home improvements. Make sure to save some for exterior improvements.
