Layout planning

Kitchen Cabinets
in Houston, TX
Cabinets decide how a kitchen works every day: where the pots go, how far you walk from the sink to the stove, how much counter you have to work on. We plan the layout with you, measure the room, help you choose the door style and finish, and install every box level and square so doors close evenly and the countertop sits flat.
What a kitchen cabinet project includes
New cabinets are more than boxes on a wall. This is what the job covers from the first measurement to the last handle.
Measuring the room
Walls in older Houston homes are rarely straight. We measure every wall, corner and window so filler panels and trim close the gaps instead of leaving them.
Door style and finish
Shaker, raised-panel or flat-panel doors in painted or wood finishes, with the hardware and crown molding chosen to match.
Removal of the old cabinets
Old cabinets come out carefully. Floors and walls are protected, and the wall is repaired where the old boxes were fastened.
Installation level and square
Base cabinets are shimmed level and fastened to the studs, uppers are aligned to one line, and doors and drawers are adjusted so the gaps are even.
Hardware, trim and finishing
Soft-close hinges and slides, handles and knobs, toe kicks, crown and filler panels, so the kitchen looks built in rather than assembled.
Cabinets we installed
A full kitchen in Spring with navy raised-panel cabinets, a matching island and quartz countertops, and white shaker cabinets going in on a remodel in Oakhurst.

Choices that change the result
Most of the look and the price of new cabinets comes from these decisions. We walk through them with you at the estimate.
Shaker doors
A clean, flat center panel with a square frame. The most popular style today; it works in modern and traditional kitchens and is easy to clean.
Raised-panel doors
A more traditional profile, like the navy kitchen above. Gives a classic look, especially with crown molding to the ceiling.
Painted or wood finish
White, navy, sage or gray paint, or a natural wood grain. Two-tone kitchens, with a different color on the island, are a common choice.
Inside the cabinets
Drawer stacks for pots, pull-out trash, lazy Susans in corners and tall pantry cabinets can do more for daily use than the door style.
How a cabinet project goes
Cabinets are ordered to your measurements, so the schedule depends on the delivery date. Everything is written into the proposal before anything is ordered.
In-home estimate
We measure the kitchen, talk about how you use it and look at the styles you like. No charge, no obligation.
Written proposal
You receive a fixed price with the cabinet style, finish, hardware and layout spelled out, plus the expected delivery date.
Ordering and delivery
Cabinets are ordered to the confirmed measurements. We check every box when it arrives, before the old kitchen comes out.
Removal and installation
The old cabinets come out, the wall is repaired, and the new ones are set level, fastened and aligned.
Countertop, hardware and walkthrough
Countertops are measured on the installed cabinets, hardware goes on, doors are adjusted, and we walk the kitchen with you before the final payment.
Why Houston homeowners choose Earlimon for kitchen cabinets
A cabinet that is a quarter inch out of level shows up later as a door that will not close or a countertop that cracks. This is how we avoid it.
- Written contract on every project. Style, finish, hardware, price and dates are signed before anything is ordered. No verbal add-ons.
- Measured twice, before ordering. Cabinets are ordered from our own measurements, checked against the plan you approved.
- One team for cabinets and countertops. The countertop is measured on the cabinets we installed, so the two fit each other.
- Jorge on site. You have his direct number. Questions are answered the same day.
- Estimates that hold. The price in the proposal is the price you pay unless you change the scope, and any change is written and priced before it happens.
Questions homeowners ask
How much do new kitchen cabinets cost in Houston?
The price depends on the number of cabinets, the construction and door style, the finish, the hardware and whether old cabinets have to come out first. Painted shaker cabinets and wood finishes differ in price, and extras such as pull-outs and crown molding add to it. After the free in-home estimate you receive a fixed written price for your kitchen, and that is the price you pay unless you change the scope.
How long does a cabinet installation take?
Most of the waiting is the delivery of cabinets made to your measurements; the date is written in the proposal. Once they arrive, removing the old cabinets and installing the new ones usually takes a few days for a typical kitchen, and the countertop is measured right after.
Can you install cabinets without remodeling the whole kitchen?
Yes. We replace cabinets on their own, keeping your flooring and appliances when they are in good shape. Because the countertop sits on the cabinets, new countertops usually go in at the same time.
Shaker or raised-panel doors?
Shaker doors have a flat center panel and suit most kitchens today; they are also easier to keep clean. Raised-panel doors give a more traditional look. We bring door samples to the estimate so you can see both in your own light.
Do you also install the countertop?
Yes. We install quartz, granite and marble countertops measured on the cabinets we set, so the two fit each other. See our countertop page for details.

Houston and the north and northeast suburbs including The Woodlands, Conroe, Spring, Humble, Kingwood and Atascocita, plus the Lake Livingston area: Livingston, Onalaska, Coldspring, Oakhurst, Huntsville, Willis, Cleveland, New Caney, Porter, Splendora, Shepherd, Point Blank, New Waverly and Trinity.
