Process FAQs

1. When should I get in touch to start the process?
We recommend reaching out early, even if you’re still finalizing your plans. The more lead time we have, the smoother and more efficient your project will be.
2. Do I need a contractor before starting cabinetry design?
We highly recommend having a general contractor. Engaging them early in the process can help ensure all trades are aligned. We’re happy to coordinate with your contractor or designer as part of our collaborative approach. If you would like a recommendation of a trusted contractor, we would be happy to help!
3. What’s the typical lead time from sign-off to installation?
Production typically takes 6–8 weeks after final approval. Your dedicated Sales & Design lead will keep you updated every step of the way.

From initial planning to completion, a typical project takes 12-14 weeks.
4. Can I order just cabinets without installation?
Yes, we offer supply-only cabinetry for clients managing their own installation. Cabinets are delivered preassembled with doors hung, ready to place. Loose components such as fillers, crown moulding, handles, and other accessories are packaged separately for flexibility on site. While most of our projects include installation by our team, we’re happy to discuss supply-only options that suit your needs.
