custom cabinets add value

Custom cabinets are much more than boxes with doors to store shelves and drawers. And custom cabinets aren’t just for the kitchen. While they do bring a highly personalized functionality to kitchens, custom cabinets can be used in almost any room in the house. Custom cabinets are great for making odd shaped spaces usable or maximizing the storage space available.

Get the Benefits and Features You Want

Sure you can get cabinets from the big box home improvement stores, but you will be limited by what they want to sell you. When you opt for custom cabinets installed by Inspired Remodels, you get the cabinets with the benefits you want.

Did you know that custom cabinets can be built to any height? This is great news for any person that is very short or very tall. Why have your kitchen or bathroom countertops at average height when you are anything but average!

If you enjoy wine, you can have a wine storage cabinet built as part of your kitchen cabinetry. If you are into aromatherapy or essential oils, a storage rack can be added in the bathroom.

Are you an avid reader? Custom bookshelves and cabinets can turn any room into your own personal library.

Custom Cabinet Builders are Not Designers

Custom cabinet builders are masters at carpentry. They can make the custom cabinets you want from quality materials using highly skilled methods. They will make cabinets that last for years. But they aren’t designers.

To incorporate custom cabinetry into your next remodel, you need to work with a designer. A designer will help you determine the overall look you want to achieve and then suggest a layout that meets your needs. They will help you coordinate materials and finishes for a cohesive appearance. A skilled designer can even mix custom cabinet finishes for a seamless flow from one room to another.

See how this design incorporates a light finish in the kitchen and a dark finish on the island that joins the two rooms? This look works because the custom cabinets are the same basic design, just the finish was varied.
