The kitchen has changed greatly over the years as it has increasingly incorporated many of the functional elements of the dining room and family room. It is only by thoughtful, experienced, and creative design that these differing elements can come together harmoniously. Cabinets are the backbone of kitchen design, setting the tone of the room’s style. We are not in the business of selling boxes—our goal is to create a home environment that is both functional and aestetically pleasing. We address the function and flow of your proposed environment by discovering how you and your family life. From there, beauty, form, and function are the ideals we pursue. To address your needs, we employ both in-house designers and independent design partners. Perhaps a simple cabinet layout is all you require. Others may desire full design services. Whatever your needs, we have people who can help. Ken McDuff Co-Owner Design & Office Supervisor
Initial Consultation

Our representative meets with you to discuss your cabinetry and remodeling needs, then prepares a “ballpark” estimate outlining approximate cabinetry costs. If you are satisfied with our products and pricing, we begin the process of working with you to design your project. You can choose to use our basic layout services or our full design services, as described below.
Layout Services
$500 retainer* with 100% credited to your order
A design specialist leads you through the decision-making process in regards to your cabinetry selections, offering advice and suggestions to maximize the functionality and look of your cabinets. Based on your choices, the designer prepares an initial cabinet layout, creating a plan, elevations, and perspectives. The designer reviews the layout with you, revising the plans and cost estimates until you are satisfied. At that time, you receive the design package and a Sales Agreement for the cabinets specified.
Design Services
$1500 retainer* with $500 credited to your order
A certified kitchen and bath designer works with you to create a one-of-a-kind design for your project. Selection of cabinetry plays a large role in the design  process, but the designer also offers assistance with space planning, interior design, and selection of materials and appliances. The designer may create two or three design options, then work with you to choose a design that best suits your needs and tastes. Plans, elevations, and perspectives are prepared, and revisions made until you are satisfied. At that time, you receive the design package and a Sales Agreement for the cabinets specified. During construction, the designer works with the contractor to insure that the project is completed according to design specifications and to your satisfaction.  
*     The $500 layout retainer applies to most projects and provides up to eight (8) hours of design and consultation. For simple projects (under $10,000), the retainer is $300 and provides up to five (5) hours of design and consultation time.  Additional time will be billed at a rate of $45 per hour.
**    The $1500 retainer provides up to twenty (20) hours of design and consultation time. Additional time will be billed at a rate of $70 per hour. Large, complex projects may require a larger design retainer.
