Finding the Right Kitchen Cabinets for Your Michigan Home

Cabinets Kitchen Remodeling Mar 10

Your kitchen is one of the most used rooms in your home. It represents not only a place where you prepare food, but where your family gathers together on a daily basis. As such, choosing the right kitchen cabinets to personalize your kitchen is paramount. Choosing cabinets that not only provide exceptional functionality, but make a statement about you and your family is important. This guide will provide you with a few steps to help you make the correct choice.

Your Current Cabinets

Perhaps the best place to start when wanting to choose new kitchen cabinets, is to determine what is it that you don’t like about your current cabinets? Perhaps the style is dated or they simply lack the functionality you desire. Your major complaint about the current cabinetry will help you to determine which aspects of the cabinet choosing experience is most important to you.

How long do You Plan on Having These Cabinets?

The amount of time you plan on spending in the home will help you to determine the price you are willing to pay. If you are selecting cabinets in anticipation of selling the home, then naturally you will want to pay as little as possible. When considering which kitchen cabinets to purchase, determine what the purpose of the cabinets are. If you intend on staying in the home for a great period of time, then choosing the ideal cabinets is important, independent of relative cost.

Choosing Which Style You Want

The style of the cabinet is important. Getting an idea of the different styles available to you is relatively easy. A good place to start is by looking online to get a feel for what styles are available. However, there is a major drawback to looking at something online versus seeing it in person. Visiting the Michigan parade of homes is a good way to see many different kitchen cabinet styles in person. This will allow you to choose which style is best for your personality, lifestyle and tastes. The style of a cabinet is affected by three primary factors, material, door style and hardware.

Material

Choosing which material is a good way to start. Deciding whether or not you want your cabinets to be a warm oak or an industrial steel will help you to decide the remaining factors.

Door Style

The door style is perhaps the most expensive part of the kitchen cabinet. Determining exactly what style you will want is important. The door doesn’t have to be made of the same material as the rest of the cabinet, in fact multi material doors are becoming quite popular. For example, a glass door will look particularly good in certain styles of cabinets. However, it is important to think of the upkeep that particular style will require.

Hardware

The hardware are the handles on the cabinets. These function as an accent which ties the entire cabinet together. It is important to choose hardware that is durable as well as matches the style of cabinet you have selected. Visiting local hardware stores around Michigan is a good way to choose which hardware is best for the style you have chosen.Improve your home with beautiful cabinets, vanities, flooring and other home improvement options from Kurtis Kitchen & Bath.

Reviews

From start to finish Kurtis was a great company to work with. From the initial contact and design concept with Gregory Holster to the cabinet drop off team, the install team led by project manager Jeff Tuomi and the countertop company, the project was on time and all work was performed beyond expectations. This was greatly appreciated seeing as it was completed on December 23. All the people involved were professional and did an excellent job.

Shanna was our project consultant. Picking out cabinets along with counters can be somewhat overwhelming but her knowledge & experience helped us make the right decisions. Dylan & Juwan unloaded truck & Dylan check off ship ticket to make sure all boxes were accounted for. Courteous & pleasant to talk to…nice job of stacking everything neatly in our garage. We couldn't be more pleased with the service & so happy with our kitchen

We recently worked with Lauren on cabinetry for a master bathroom renovation. She was great to work on the design and selections. Lauren was efficient and responsive from cabinet selection through ordering. Our overall installation was smooth. We had some unforeseen circumstances impacting our ability to accept delivery of our cabinets on the initial agreed upon date. Kurtis was very accommodating in rescheduling delivery given our project challenges. We couldn't be happier with our cabinets for this project.

We had complete renovations to our kitchen and main bathroom. From start to finish, the design with Shanna was exactly what we asked for and Jeff stayed on top of the renovations, communicating each step of the way. Every worker was professional and the final product is elegant and functional. We were very happy with Kurtis and would choose Shanna and Jeff again.

We love our new kitchen! Kurtis Kitchen & Bath did an outstanding job, and Adrian at the Clarkston location was exceptional to work with—creative, patient, and really listened to what we wanted. The project was well-organized, and we went from demo to a fully functioning kitchen in just 30 days. Highly recommend!
