Your kitchen should work with you, not against you. When you can’t find what you need because everything’s stacked behind something else, or your counters are covered in appliances because there’s nowhere to put them, cooking becomes a chore instead of something you enjoy.
Quality kitchen cabinets in Garner, NC change that. Soft-close drawers with dovetail construction mean you’re not slamming things shut or dealing with broken slides in six months. Pull-out shelving and specialty storage cabinets give you actual access to your pots, pans, and pantry items without the Tetris game every time you need something.
All-wood construction matters because particle board swells and fails when it gets wet—and kitchens get wet. Plywood boxes with solid wood doors hold up to humidity, spills, and the kind of daily use that comes with feeding a family or entertaining friends. You’re not replacing these in five years because the finish bubbled or the hinges pulled out.
We’ve been serving Garner, NC and the Triangle area since the late ’90s. We’re BBB accredited, locally owned, and we show up when we say we will.
We install J&K and JSI cabinets because they’re built right—all-wood construction, soft-close hardware, and finishes that last. Our installers measure twice, level everything properly, and handle the awkward work of mounting heavy cabinets on walls that aren’t always perfectly straight. That’s what 25 years of experience gets you.
Garner homeowners know us because we’ve worked in neighborhoods from Blue Valley to White Deer Park. We understand the mix of newer construction and older homes here, and we know how to handle both.
First, we come to your home and measure everything. Walls, floors, ceiling height, plumbing locations, electrical outlets—accurate measurements prevent the delays and headaches that come from ordering cabinets that don’t fit. We’ll talk through what you’re trying to accomplish: more pantry storage, a better bathroom vanity setup, pull-out trash cabinets, whatever makes sense for how you actually live.
Next, we walk you through cabinet options. J&K offers contemporary, transitional, and traditional styles in all-wood construction with premium features like under-mounted soft-close drawer glides and hidden hinges. JSI gives you high-end details at a more accessible price point. You pick the style, finish, and configuration that works for your space and budget.
Then we order, schedule, and install. Our team handles the removal of old cabinets if needed, preps the space, and installs everything level and secure. We’re dealing with the weight, the wall anchoring, and making sure doors and drawers operate smoothly. You get a lifetime warranty on the installation work, and we don’t leave until everything functions the way it should.
Ready to get started?
You’re getting all-wood cabinets from manufacturers who’ve been in business for decades. J&K and JSI both use plywood construction with solid wood doors and face frames—no particle board that swells when your bathroom gets steamy or your kitchen sink leaks.
Soft-close drawer glides and hinges are standard, not upgrades. Dovetail drawer boxes hold together under weight. Finishes are catalyzed and sealed properly so they don’t chip off when you bump them with a pot or a cleaning bottle.
For Garner homeowners, this matters because the housing stock here ranges from brand new builds in developments like Aversboro Crossing to older homes from the ’70s and ’80s near downtown. Newer homes often have builder-grade cabinets that look fine but use cheap materials. Older homes might have solid bones but outdated storage that doesn’t work for modern kitchens. Either way, you’re upgrading to something that lasts.
We also understand the local market. Kitchen remodels in the Triangle typically run $20,000 to $65,000, and cabinets are the biggest line item. We give you transparent pricing, a best price guarantee, and options that fit different budgets without sacrificing quality where it counts.
A typical kitchen cabinet installation takes three to five days once the cabinets arrive. Bathroom vanity installations are usually one to two days. The timeline depends on the size of the space, whether we’re removing old cabinets first, and if there’s any prep work needed on the walls or floors.
The bigger variable is usually the ordering and manufacturing timeline, which runs four to eight weeks depending on the cabinet line and finish you choose. Custom configurations or specialty storage cabinets can add time. We give you a realistic schedule upfront so you can plan around it.
Delays happen when measurements are wrong or walls aren’t prepped properly. That’s why we measure in person and check for issues like uneven floors or out-of-plumb walls before we order anything. Fixing those problems on the front end saves you weeks of frustration later.
Both are all-wood, semi-custom cabinet lines with quality construction. J&K is the premium option with complete overlay doors, heavy-duty soft-close hardware, and a wider range of finishes and door styles. JSI offers similar construction quality at a lower price point with a more streamlined selection.
If you want maximum customization and the highest-end finishes, J&K gives you more options. If you’re working with a tighter budget but still want solid wood construction and soft-close features, JSI delivers good value without cutting corners on the basics.
We walk you through both lines based on what you’re trying to accomplish and what you want to spend. Some people mix them—J&K for the kitchen where you want the showpiece, JSI for the laundry room or garage where function matters more than aesthetics.
Yes. Both J&K and JSI offer extensive specialty cabinet options: pull-out trash and recycling cabinets, spice rack organizers, deep pantry cabinets with roll-out shelving, corner solutions like lazy Susans or pull-out units, and appliance garages to get your mixer and toaster off the counter.
These aren’t aftermarket add-ons—they’re built into the cabinet line with the same construction quality as the rest of your cabinets. The drawer glides are rated for the weight, the finishes match, and everything integrates cleanly.
This is where the semi-custom aspect matters. You’re not stuck with a fixed set of cabinet sizes and configurations. We can design storage around how you actually use your kitchen: more drawers if you hate reaching into lower cabinets, pull-outs if you have back problems, extra pantry space if you buy in bulk. The goal is making your kitchen work better, not just look better.
We do full bathroom vanity installations, including removal of the old vanity, installation of the new cabinet and countertop, and reconnection of plumbing. If you’re keeping your existing top, we can work with that. If you need a new countertop, we coordinate that as part of the project.
Bathroom cabinets take different abuse than kitchen cabinets—more humidity, more standing water, cleaning products that can damage finishes. That’s why all-wood construction matters even more here. Particle board vanities fail quickly in bathrooms. Plywood construction with properly sealed finishes holds up.
For Garner homes, we see a lot of interest in the 2024 trend toward natural wood vanities in lighter tones like maple and oak, paired with modern fixtures. Shaker-style doors with reeded fronts are popular right now. We can show you what’s current without pushing you toward something that’ll look dated in three years.
Older homes in Garner—especially anything built before the 2000s—often have settling that creates uneven floors and out-of-plumb walls. We deal with this on most installations. It’s not a deal-breaker, it just requires proper shimming, scribing, and adjustment during installation.
We check level and plumb during the initial measurement visit. If there are significant issues, we’ll tell you upfront and explain what’s needed to correct them. Sometimes it’s as simple as shimming the cabinets during installation. Other times, if the floor slopes badly or the walls are severely out of square, we might need to do some prep work first.
The key is addressing it before the cabinets arrive. Trying to force cabinets onto uneven surfaces leads to doors that won’t close properly, drawers that bind, and gaps that look terrible. We take the time to do it right so your cabinets function properly and look clean when we’re done.
Kitchen cabinet costs in Garner typically range from $8,000 to $25,000 depending on the size of your kitchen, the cabinet line you choose, and how much specialty storage you add. A standard 10×10 kitchen with mid-range cabinets usually falls in the $12,000 to $18,000 range including installation.
Bathroom vanity cabinets run $800 to $3,500 depending on size and features. A basic 36-inch vanity with a simple door style might be under $1,000. A 60-inch double vanity with drawers, soft-close hardware, and a premium finish can run $2,500 to $3,500 before countertop and installation.
We give you a detailed quote after measuring your space and understanding what you need. The best price guarantee means you’re not overpaying, and the lifetime installation warranty means you’re not paying twice if something goes wrong. We’re transparent about costs because surprises halfway through a project are how budgets spiral out of control.
