​How much? 
 
Once a week I get a call from someone asking me that.  If you have ever read my blog "Ask Leslie" on www.overlandparkcabinets.com, I have stated that we DO NOT quote prices over the phone, but 3 weeks ago I got talked into it.
To my realtor friends, have you had that phone call?   Someone wanting to know how much is a 4 bedroom, 3 bath, walk-out basement home.
 
How could you possibly give a correct price without specific information?  Location, school district, taxes, age and condition of the home, are facts you must have to begin the process of pricing a home.
 
To my friends in the car business, how much is a new Lexus?  Mercedes? GMC truck?
Of course that depends on what features you want. You may see an ad on television, showing the beautiful, new auto hugging the curves of a winding mountain road. The ad may state "starting at 19,999.99, then in the very tiny, print as shown $48,999.00!
 
The same is true for our cabinets.
 
If price is the ONLY factor, I will tell you we are NOT going to be the cheapest. You can find cheap MDF (particle board) cabinets, RTA cabinets. Ready To Assemble yep!
You can buy pieces of cabinets, that you can put together yourself. If it is cracked or broken in the assembly process, that’s on you, to contact the company, pay for/wait for the replacement. 
 
You might save some money by buying un-finished cabinets. You buy them, buy paint or stain, paint them yourself or hire a painter to finish them. You are now out the cost of the cabinets, paint or stain and I doubt you will get a professional factory finish, like the ones we offer at Premium Cabinet Studio.
 
Do you want drawers or doors? 
Drawers cost more, more construction, more parts. 
What finish do you like? Style? 
Raised panel cabinets have, more detail, more workmanship, they cost more.
Do you want glass inserts?
Mullions? 
Pantry? 
Wine Rack?
Crown molding? 
Lazy Susan?
Roll–out trays?
Spice rack?
 
I have friends, clients and acquaintances that are building million dollars plus homes, others are remodeling 300-600 hundred thousand dollars homes....trust me... EVERYONE IS ON A BUDGET!
 
Quality in a home will last over time. You can get cheaper, lower quality cabinets, and need to replace them within a couple of years. That’s not value, that’s more money out of your pocket. 
 
You install cheap cabinets to sell your home…you will probably get a lower offer, because the buyer is planning on replacing them.
 
That’s not value, that’s more money out of your pocket.
 
Premium Cabinet Studio offers all REAL wood cabinetry. We have over 50 styles and finishes.
 
We offer quality for a great price. I want you to think about cost for value.
 
NO, we aren’t the cheapest cabinets, nor do we want to be. 
 
We are proud to offer an excellent quality, with design service and superior customer service, at a great price.
