Cabinets, a kitchen that closes properly

It usually starts with doors that no longer line up. The hard part is not the work — it is that every cabinet company sounds equally sure of itself, and you get one guess. We check licence and insurance before we introduce anyone, and we record the date we checked.

Cabinets in short

There are four distinct cabinet services and they differ by an order of magnitude in price. Refinishing paints or restains the doors you have. Refacing puts new doors and new skin on your existing boxes for about $4,000-$9,500. Replacement swaps in new boxes and doors, from roughly $3,200 for a 40-foot stock kitchen to $20,000-$32,000 custom. A custom build is designed and made for your room.

Kitchen cabinets are priced per linear foot of run. In 2026 that is roughly $80-$120 for stock, $150-$300 for semi-custom and $500-$800 for custom, installed. A standard 10x10 kitchen with 40 linear feet therefore lands at about $3,200-$4,800 stock, $6,000-$12,000 semi-custom and $20,000-$32,000 custom. Refacing your existing boxes instead runs $4,000-$9,500.

Why a pro gets to be on this list

Most sites sell your number to whoever pays the most for it. We check the cabinet companies we match you with, and we publish the date we checked so you can hold us to it.

Licence checked

We look up the licence with the issuing state or local authority and record the date we checked it.

Insurance confirmed

General liability and, where it applies, workers’ compensation — confirmed with the carrier, not taken on trust.

Reviews read, not counted

We read the recent negatives as well as the average, and we look at how the pro answered them.

Re-checked, not set and forgotten

A licence that lapses drops the pro out of matching. Every record carries the date it was last verified.

We don’t publish a cost until we can show the data behind it. If you need a number today, the quote form gives you real prices from local companies.

Homeowners

What people say after they’ve hired

Zero reviews. On purpose.

We’d rather show you nothing than show you someone else’s reviews.

Plenty of sites fill this space with reviews scraped from elsewhere, or written for them. We don’t. The first cabinets review on this page will come from a homeowner we matched, after their work was finished and paid for.

FAQ

Cabinets questions, answered

The questions homeowners ask us most about cabinets.

In 2026, about $80-$120 per linear foot for stock, $150-$300 semi-custom and $500-$800 custom, installed. A 40-linear-foot 10x10 kitchen is roughly $3,200-$4,800, $6,000-$12,000 or $20,000-$32,000.
Reface if the boxes are sound and the layout works — $4,000-$9,500 per Modernize, and up to 78% less than replacing. Replace if the boxes are damaged or you want to change the layout.
Full custom is realistically 8-14 weeks from approved design, per Alliance Woodworking, with smaller single items at 3-5 weeks. Confirm what date your supplier's clock starts from.
Ask whether the line carries ANSI/KCMA A161.1 certification, then check the drawer box construction, glide type, shelf sag and how the door sits. Those tell you more than the finish does.
Partly, and restraint returns better. Per Cost vs. Value data cited by NerdWallet, a $28,458 minor remodel recovers over 100% of its cost while an $82,793 major midrange remodel returns around 50%.

The wrong cabinet hire costs more than the right one.

Cabinets are priced by the box and ruined by the measurement. A remake is weeks, not days. Getting matched takes about a minute, costs nothing, and you can walk away from every quote you receive.
