A kitchen install is where every design decision either meets the wall cleanly — or reveals compromises. Plano homes present every possible install challenge: 30-year-old ranch homes with settled subfloors and out-of-plumb walls, mid-2000s two-story tract kitchens with soffits and drops, and new 10-foot-ceiling builds in West Plano and Frisco where inset reveals have to be exact from door to door. Our install program is built to handle all three without missing a schedule.
Every kitchen we install in Plano is set by our own W-2 crew — not day-labor subs — with the same equipment on every job: laser-level lines, French cleats for perfectly straight wall runs, scribe planes for out-of-plumb walls, biscuit joiners for tight case-to-case joints, and a dead-blow mallet everywhere. The lead installer usually stays with the job from delivery through punch, which is why our punch lists are short and our callbacks are rare.
Install is the last step in a longer program. Most of our clients come through custom design and fabrication or our homeowner kitchen program, but we also install for clients who bought elsewhere. If your existing boxes are still sound, look at refacing and refinishing first. Related work often extends into bathroom vanities, hardware installation, and other cabinet installations throughout the house.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many days does a Plano kitchen install take?
A standard 20–24 linear-foot full-overlay kitchen installs in 2–3 days. Inset construction, integrated appliance panels, or two-tone paint work push that to 3–5 days.
Will you tear out my existing kitchen?
Yes. Demo, disposal, and drywall patch behind the cabinets are included in our written scope. You wake up with a working kitchen and go to bed with a stripped room the same day.
Do I need to be out of the house during install?
No. Most Plano homeowners live at home during install. We zip-wall the kitchen off from the rest of the house and clean up daily, and we can set up a temporary microwave/sink station in a nearby room.
Can you install a kitchen we bought from another company?
Yes — install-only for cabinets from another shop, semi-custom brand, or even online supplier. We inspect the delivery before install day and quote based on what shows up.
Do you handle plumbing and electrical hookups?
We coordinate with your plumber and electrician; we don't perform those trades ourselves. If you don't have one, we can refer Plano-based tradespeople we've worked with for years.
What if my walls are out of plumb?
Common in older East and Central Plano homes. We scribe filler strips and end panels to the wall with a compass and hand plane so gaps disappear. This time is quoted up front, not billed later.
Do you work on new construction in West Plano and Frisco?
Constantly. We install for homeowners directly and for a handful of custom builders. Coordination with framers, trim carpenters, and stone fabricators is our standard process.
Will my countertop template happen the same week?
Yes — we hand off dimensions to your fabricator on day one of install so templating happens as soon as base cabinets are set.
Are your installers insured?
Fully insured with general liability and workers' comp. Certificates naming your builder or HOA available on request.
