– The Service

Cabinetry That Matches the House It's Going Into

A kitchen cabinet remodel in Irvine has to answer a question a lot of cities don’t ask, which village’s design guidelines and architectural style is this home built around. Cabinet refacing for a Mediterranean-style home looks wrong with the wrong door profile, and a kitchen cabinet installation project in a newer, more contemporary build calls for cleaner lines than a traditional home would want. We start every project by identifying the style, not defaulting to whatever’s fastest to source.

Custom countertop installation and countertops materials selection usually happen alongside cabinetry, quartz, granite, and quality kitchen materials chosen to match the cabinet finish rather than picked separately and hoping they work together. Kitchen cabinet installation covers both new builds and full replacements, we handle the layout, the boxes, and the finish work as one job.

- Built to Your Standards

From Cabinet Refacing to Fully Custom Builds

Cabinet refacing keeps your existing cabinet boxes and replaces doors, drawer fronts, and hardware, a real option when the boxes are structurally sound and the layout still works. When it isn’t, we move to full kitchen cabinet installation, semi-custom or fully custom, built to your exact space rather than adjusted to fit it. Designer kitchen fixtures and hardware get selected to match whichever direction you’re going, not an afterthought tacked on at the end.

Creative storage solutions come up in almost every Irvine cabinetry project, pull-out pantries, corner solutions, drawer organization built into the cabinet design rather than added later. We also handle kitchen island installation as part of a larger cabinetry project, matching the island’s finish and storage to the rest of the kitchen instead of treating it as a separate piece.
