Choosing Custom Cabinets in Birmingham

Housing ranges from early twentieth-century homes in Forest Park and Crestwood to the over-the-mountain suburbs of Homewood, Mountain Brook and Vestavia Hills, and newer subdivisions in Hoover and Shelby County. The age of the home is only a starting point. Compare the room's measurements, the storage you need and the changes each company can make. A custom shop may be useful for unusual dimensions, while a semi-custom line can work when its available sizes suit the plan.

For custom kitchen cabinets, ask to see a layout that accounts for appliances, storage and door swings. For a bathroom, compare how custom bathroom cabinets will fit the plumbing and available width. Built-in cabinets need a plan for what they will hold and how they meet the surrounding walls.

Compare written estimates for the same scope before you sign. Alabama requires a state home builders license for residential work above a set contract amount. Ask any cabinet company doing installation or remodeling whether your project requires one, and confirm the license with the Alabama Home Builders Licensure Board.

What to Ask Before Hiring

  • Who designs the project and takes the final measurements?
  • Do you fabricate the cabinets, or order them from a manufacturer?
  • What materials are used for the boxes, doors and drawers?
  • Which hinges, slides and storage hardware are included?
  • Does the installation scope include removal, delivery, fitting and touch-ups?
  • Will I approve the door and finish sample before fabrication?
  • What are the schedule and written warranty?

Use the cabinet installation guide to compare the same scope across quotes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who are the best cabinet companies in Birmingham, AL?

Our current Birmingham ranking, in order, is #1 Cabinetry Refinishing Enterprises, #2 Creative Cabinets and Design, #3 Ronan Cabinet & Customs, #4 DBIW LLC Cabinetry & Wood Work.

How were these cabinet companies ranked?

A ranking starts with each company’s Google rating and number of Google reviews, then considers experience, services, reputation, project portfolio, business information and local presence.

How long does a cabinet project take?

Stock cabinets are often available within days or weeks. Semi-custom and custom orders commonly take several weeks to a few months.

Should I replace, reface or repaint my cabinets?

Choose replacement when the layout is changing or the boxes are in poor shape. Refacing can work when the boxes are sound and the layout works. Painting changes the finish but not the layout.

How do I compare custom cabinet quotes in Birmingham?

Ask each company to quote from the same drawings and identify the box, door and drawer materials, included hardware, approved finish and installation scope. A lower total is difficult to compare when removal, delivery or fitting work is handled differently.
