Why do you charge a fee for kitchen cabinet estimates?
Designing an accurate kitchen cabinet estimate takes time, experience, and attention to detail. Unlike a quick “ballpark” number, a proper estimate includes reviewing measurements or plans, confirming cabinet sizes, layouts, finishes, fillers, panels, and accessories to avoid costly mistakes later.
The estimate fee helps ensure:
• A detailed and accurate cabinet layout
• Fewer errors, delays, or unexpected costs
• Dedicated time focused on your specific kitchen
• Professional design support, not rushed guesses
Good news: the estimate/design fee is credited back toward your cabinet purchase when you order with us, so it's not an extra cost—just a commitment to accuracy and quality.
We believe this approach protects both you and us and results in a smoother, more successful kitchen project.
