Frequently Asked Questions
What is Custom Cabinetry?
Custom cabinetry is built from scratch around your room — not chosen from a catalogue and adjusted to fit. That means no awkward gaps and no storage that was designed for someone else’s room. The layout, the materials, the finish, and every interior detail are planned around the way you actually live and work in the space.
The lifespan of your cabinets depends heavily on how they’re built. High-quality custom cabinets — especially those made with plywood boxes, solid joinery, and durable finishes — can last 40 to 50 years or more with normal use.
Over time, the finish may need refreshing, but the structure itself usually holds up extremely well.
By comparison, lower-quality cabinets, particularly those made from particleboard, tend to show wear much sooner — often within 10 to 25 years depending on construction quality, with particleboard in high-moisture areas like around sinks and dishwashers falling toward the shorter end of that range.
In other words, the materials and construction methods make a big difference in how long your cabinets actually last.
Yes. Chase Cabinetry is fully licensed and insured. That’s important because it protects both the homeowner and the project. It also gives you peace of mind that the business is operating professionally and responsibly — something every homeowner should confirm before hiring any contractor.
Insurance matters in practical ways too. It helps protect against accidental property damage and ensures proper coverage for the people working on the project.
It’s one of those details that may not feel exciting, but it absolutely matters when you’re inviting someone into your home to do renovation work.
For many homeowners, ceiling-height cabinets are worth it. They give you more storage, create a cleaner built-in look, and eliminate that dusty, awkward gap above the upper cabinets. In homes with standard 8-foot ceilings, they can make the whole kitchen feel more finished.
In taller rooms, the top section — generally anything above roughly seven feet of floor height, where most people can’t comfortably reach without a step stool — usually works best for items you don’t need every day, such as seasonal dishes, serving pieces, or small appliances you only bring out occasionally.
That said, full-height cabinetry does cost more. It takes more material, more finishing, and often more care during installation, especially if the ceiling isn’t perfectly level.
So the choice comes down to both style and function. If you want a more custom look and you’ll use the extra storage, ceiling-height cabinets are often a smart upgrade.
They can — especially when they improve both function and appearance. Kitchens are one of the most important rooms for resale, and cabinetry is one of the first things buyers notice.
Outdated or poorly fitted cabinets can make a kitchen feel tired, even if the rest of the space is fine. On the other hand, well-designed cabinetry signals that the home has been cared for and thoughtfully updated.
In strong markets, homeowners may recover a significant portion of their kitchen renovation investment. Some industry reports suggest returns of 70% or more for mid-range kitchen remodels, though returns can vary depending on the region, scope of work, and local real estate conditions.
If you’re planning to sell within the next 5–10 years, upgrading your cabinets can help your home stand out, sell faster, and feel more move-in ready to buyers.
Often, yes. A quality painted finish usually involves more steps, including sanding, priming, and multiple coats to achieve a smooth, even look. That extra labour is a big part of why painted cabinets often cost more.
Stained finishes also require careful prep, but the process is different because the goal is to highlight the natural character of the wood rather than cover it. The final cost can vary depending on the wood species and the finish system used.
In the end, the price difference comes down less to one finish being “better” and more to the amount of work needed to do each one well.
Yes. Chase Cabinetry offers free project estimates. The more information you can share at the start — photos, measurements, your location, your goals, and your timeline — the more specific and helpful that estimate can be.
A good estimate should do more than give you a number. It should help clarify the scope of the project, the options available, and what direction makes the most sense for your home.
That first conversation is often where the project starts to feel more manageable, because it turns a general idea into something more concrete.
