How to Get an Estimate
1. Draw a rough sketch of your existing kitchen with rough measurements of the room's dimensions. Measure along the back walls.
Measure where the window(s) are placed on the wall(s) & where the doors are. Make note of where your appliances are & where
the sink(s) are located. Also don't forget to note the height of your ceiling in the kitchen.
2. If you are building a new home, just bring in your plans.
3. Pictures always help. You can also take digital pictures of your existing kitchen & email them to us. Please fill out this form in
order to get our email address.
Also if you have any pictures from magazines of details that you like bring them in as well. Tip: Whenever you see something that
you like in a kitchen picture, cut it out or tear it out. Start collecting pictures if you haven't already in order to communicate to whoever
will be designing your kitchen what your style is & what kinds of details you want in your dream kitchen.
4. Bring in your sketch, dimensions, and/or pictures & come into our showroom to pick out details & to get more information. You
can also fax us your sketch but we'll need further information in order to get you an estimate. We will need these questions
answered: will the cabinets ultimately be painted or stained? If they are to be stained, what type of wood species are the cabinets
to be? Are the doors to be raised panel, 5-part flat panel, or slab doors? Where are accessories to go, ie. pullouts, lazy susans,
spice pullouts, corbels, appliques, etc. Are the cabinets to be supplied unfinished, painted, with glaze, or stained? Will we be
delivering & installing the cabinets?
For countertops:
1. Draw a rough sketch of the layout of your cabinetry. Measure along the back walls where the countertop will be going. Make
note of appliances, sink(s), walls & exposed ends. Bring in your sketch with dimensions, & any flooring, backsplash, paint or
cabinet samples in order to get a good coordinating color.
2. If you do a little leg work you'll come out ahead in the end. If you just rely upon companies that are willing to come out with what
limited samples they are willing to bring out, you put yourself in a great disadvantage. Drawing a sketch with measurements &
bringing along your samples opens up a world of possibilities. Many high end companies are unwilling to come out & chase down
jobs.
For vanities, entertainment centers, & display cabinetry:
1. Draw a sketch of the desired cabinetry. Bring in any pictures from magazines of desired details that you may have collected.
Measure the space that the cabinetry will go into & the desired dimensions of the cabinetry. Make note of where wall(s) are,
clearances, and/or obstructions that may get in the way of the installed cabinetry.
