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.
Semi-custom cabinets are made within a manufacturer’s preset system — you get more choices than stock, but the sizing and construction still follow their rules. Custom cabinets have no preset limits on size, depth, layout, storage configuration, or finish.
Semi-custom cabinets give you more flexibility than stock, but you’re still working within a manufacturer’s system. You can usually adjust sizes slightly and choose from a wider range of styles and finishes, but you’re still limited to what that brand offers.
Custom cabinetry removes those limits entirely. Everything is built from scratch, so dimensions, storage features, and finishes are tailored exactly to your space and how you use it. That means you can solve very specific problems — like fitting a drawer into an awkward gap or designing storage around the way you cook and organize your kitchen.
In terms of timeline, semi-custom cabinets usually take 4 to 8 weeks, while fully custom work is closer to 6 to 12 weeks. Cost-wise, custom is typically 20–40% more, depending on materials and complexity — but it also gives you complete control over the final result.
There isn’t one perfect number, but most kitchens benefit from more drawers than they currently have. Once homeowners switch to a more drawer-focused layout, they usually notice the improvement right away. Things are easier to reach, easier to organize, and much less likely to get buried.
A well-planned kitchen often uses drawers for a large portion of the base cabinetry. Deep drawers are ideal for pots, pans, and mixing bowls. Medium-depth drawers work well for dishes and storage containers. Shallow drawers are useful for utensils, tools, and smaller everyday items.
The goal isn’t just to add drawers for the sake of it. It’s to give everything a spot that actually makes sense.
When drawers are planned around how you use the kitchen, the whole space tends to feel more organized and more efficient.
Yes. A 50 percent deposit is required once the quote is accepted. That is standard for custom cabinetry work because materials need to be ordered and production begins well before installation day. The deposit helps secure the project and allows the work to move forward on schedule.
As with any renovation contract, it’s helpful to understand the payment structure clearly before the project begins so everyone knows what to expect.
When the terms are set out clearly from the start, the process tends to feel much more straightforward.
Projects are overseen directly by Chase Collings, who is involved as the owner, designer, and cabinet maker. For homeowners, that means the person you’re discussing the design with is also closely connected to how the project is built and carried through to installation. That kind of continuity can make communication much easier and helps keep the vision consistent from start to finish.
Some homeowners really value that direct involvement because it creates a more personal and accountable experience. Instead of being passed between departments, you’re working with the person leading the project.
If you have to prioritize, cabinetry usually has the bigger impact on daily function. Countertops matter too, especially visually, but cabinets affect storage, workflow, organization, and how the kitchen feels to use every single day. A beautiful countertop can’t make up for a layout or storage plan that doesn’t work well.
That’s why many homeowners are better off investing in solid cabinet design and quality construction first, then choosing the best countertop option that fits what’s left in the budget.
In most kitchens, yes — drawers are easier to live with. With a drawer, everything pulls out toward you, so you can see what you have and reach it without digging around. With a cabinet door and shelf, items tend to get pushed to the back and forgotten.
That difference becomes even more noticeable with pots and pans, food containers, dishes, and other heavier everyday items. Drawers simply make lower storage more accessible.
They’re also easier on your back, since you’re not bending and reaching as much. For many homeowners, that convenience alone makes them worth the extra cost.
A mix of deep drawers, medium drawers, and a few specialized pull-outs often creates a kitchen that feels far more functional than a row of basic lower cabinets.
