Kitchen & Bath Cabinetry Pricing FAQ

How much does a new kitchen cost for cabinets alone?

Stock cabinets for a 10x10 kitchen (the industry benchmark) run $2,000–$5,000 including installation. Semi-custom runs $5,000–$15,000; fully custom cabinets run $15,000–$40,000+. Cabinets are typically 40–50% of kitchen remodel budgets.

Is cabinet refacing worth it?

Refacing (new doors, drawer fronts, and veneer on existing boxes) costs $4,000–$10,000 vs. $8,000–$20,000 for full replacement. It's worth it if cabinet boxes are solid and the layout works — not worth it if you want to change the layout.

How long does cabinet installation take?

Stock cabinet installation takes 1–3 days. Semi-custom takes 2–5 days. Countertops and hardware are installed after cabinets, extending the total kitchen timeline. Custom cabinets have 6–12 week lead times before installation can begin.
