How We Work

Custom cabinet work follows a clear path from your vision to finished installation. We handle design, build, and fitting with precision craftsmanship.

The Process

1

Consultation & Design

We meet at your Lafayette home, discuss layout, finishes, and functionality. You pick wood species, hardware, and stain colors to match your style.

2

Measurement & Drawings

We take precise measurements, account for plumbing and electrical, and create detailed drawings. We confirm all specifications before fabrication begins.

3

Fabrication

Cabinets are built using doweled joinery for strength and longevity. Each piece is sanded, stained, and finished to your specifications for a professional result.

4

Installation

Cabinets are delivered and installed on-site. We level, secure, and fit everything perfectly, ensuring doors and drawers operate smoothly.

5

Final Inspection

We walk you through every detail. All hardware is tested, finishes are verified, and any adjustments are made so you're completely satisfied.

6

Care Instructions

We provide guidance on maintaining your cabinets, protecting finishes, and keeping hardware in top shape for years of reliable use.

You'll always know what's happening next—and when.

Our Services

We specialize in custom cabinetry that fits your space, your budget, and your taste. Every project is built with precision joinery.

Kitchen Cabinets

Kitchen cabinets anchor your room. We design storage that works—deep drawers for pots, pull-out shelves for spices, and soft-close doors. Whether remodeling a Waneka Lake colonial or a Blue Heron contemporary, our custom cabinetry adapts to your layout and appliances.

Materials range from solid hardwoods to painted finishes. Doweled construction keeps everything sturdy through years of daily use.

Bath Cabinetry

Bath vanities and medicine cabinets need moisture-resistant construction. We use quality finishes that handle humidity and resist warping, especially important in Lafayette's variable Colorado climate.

Vanity tops, mirrors, and hardware tie together your bathroom's style while maximizing storage in tight spaces.

Built-In Storage & Shelving

From living room shelving to closet systems, we build storage that maximizes every square foot. Walk-in closets, pantries, and display cases bring order to homes across Indian Peaks and Old Town Lafayette.

Adjustable shelves let you change layouts as needs evolve. Finish options range from paint to stain to blend with existing woodwork.

Every custom cabinet project includes doweled joinery—the hallmark of quality construction that outlasts simple stapled or pocket-hole assembly.

Why Local Expertise Matters

Lafayette homes are diverse—historic mining-era structures, suburban developments, and custom estates—each with unique dimensions, layouts, and character. Local cabinet makers understand these homes.

Real Skill Matters

Custom cabinetry built with doweled joinery—not screws or staples—holds up over decades. Precise measurement and craftsmanship prevent gaps, misaligned doors, and early wear.

We work with solid hardwoods, handle plumbing and electrical obstacles, and adapt designs on-site when measurements reveal surprises.

Building Permits in Lafayette

Work that alters kitchens, bathrooms, or structural elements typically requires city permits. Cabinets that connect to electrical, plumbing, or HVAC systems fall into this category. We know Lafayette's Building Division requirements and coordinate inspections.

Contact the City of Lafayette Planning and Building Department at 303-661-1451 to confirm permit requirements for your specific project.

Fit & Finish First Time

Old Town Lafayette homes sometimes have uneven walls. New builds in White Hawk Ranch have precise angles. We adjust during fabrication and installation, so final fit is seamless.

Quality staining, finishing, and hardware selection tie your cabinets to your home's overall design.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between custom cabinetry and stock cabinets?

Custom cabinetry is built to your exact dimensions and design, using materials and finishes you choose. It adapts to your space, your lifestyle, and your aesthetic. Stock cabinets come pre-made in standard sizes and limited styles.

Do kitchen cabinets need a permit in Lafayette?

If your cabinet work includes electrical, gas, plumbing, or mechanical system changes, a permit is required. We coordinate with the City of Lafayette Building Division to ensure compliance.

What wood species and finishes are available?

We work with a wide range of solid hardwoods—oak, cherry, maple, walnut—and paint finishes. During your consultation, we'll show samples and discuss durability, maintenance, and cost for each option.

Why is doweled joinery important?

Doweled joinery uses wooden dowels to connect cabinet parts, creating stronger, more durable joints than screws or staples. It's the standard for quality, long-lasting cabinetry.

Do you serve Old Town Lafayette and historic homes?

Yes. Historic mining-era homes in Old Town Lafayette often have tight or uneven spaces. We measure carefully, adapt designs, and match finishes to preserve character while adding modern storage and function.

What if my space has unusual dimensions or obstacles?

That's exactly what custom cabinetry solves. We adapt designs around plumbing vents, HVAC ducts, electrical outlets, and uneven walls. On-site fitting ensures a perfect final result.
