I remember a time when boasting about how much or how expensive something was considered impressive and yes, a bit in bad taste.
Betty said they spent $300.00 on their new console television, I recall my Mom telling a neighbor over coffee when I was a kid.
Fast forward, now it is considered good business to brag on how little something costs. Everyone wants and expects to get a deal, but how do you know if you are getting a deal?
When looking at custom cabinets this is what to expect.

When looking at custom cabinets this is what to expect.
Custom cabinets are designed specifically to fit your kitchen. One should expect to pay $500-$1200 per linear foot depending on the type of wood, the craftsmanship, the demand and reputation of the cabinet builder and what part of the country you live.
Semi-custom cabinetry can still be high quality, all-wood and come in standard sizes that can be tailored to any space. Semi-custom cabinets will cost approximately $200-$700 per linear foot. A huge savings.
Another thing to consider is installation. Yes, if you are a good DIY person you can hang cabinets and save $$$$. Most of us would find installing kitchen cabinets a daunting task and would gladly pay for a good installer.
Average cost to have kitchen cabinets installed is $75-$125 per cabinet depending on the cabinet and the complexity of the install. This is a cost that needs to be factored in when remodeling your kitchen.
Please keep in mind that on average a homeowner can recoup 92-94% of the cost of a kitchen when the home is sold. So it is more of an investment than a cost.
