Explore this project

Modernize offers a route to cabinet-installation professionals. Decide whether you need completely new cabinets, additional storage or a discussion about retaining existing units. Cabinet construction, dimensions, door style and internal fittings all influence the project, especially when worktops or appliances will remain in place.

Prepare a useful request

Make an inventory of the storage you need and measure appliances that must fit between units. Ask for a plan showing cabinet sizes, filler pieces, door swings and clearances. Discuss drawers, shelves and accessibility features, then confirm finish samples and the exact cabinet range before ordering.

Understand the complete price

Compare cabinet supply, delivery, assembly, installation, hardware and finishing separately. Removal, wall repair and worktop handling may add cost. Identify who checks measurements, how damaged deliveries are resolved and which changes can still be made after an order is placed. Record lead times in the contract.

From request to written proposal

Open Modernize using the button and choose the relevant project. Supply accurate location and contact information, then review the contact-consent terms before submitting. A request may lead to calls or messages from participating providers. Ask who will perform the work, arrange an assessment when needed, and compare written proposals before signing.

Keep the same project brief for every contractor. Record what is included, what is excluded, the proposed start date, payment milestones and the process for approving changes. Confirm local licensing and insurance where applicable, and keep copies of the contract, product details and warranty documents.

Frequently asked questions

Can existing worktops stay during cabinet replacement?

That depends on their material, condition and attachment. Ask the installer to assess removal and reinstallation risks and to price any necessary support or replacement separately before you decide to keep them.

Does the quote request include free installation?

No. Access to a quote request does not make the project free. Confirm whether an assessment has a charge, then review the separate price for products, labor, permits and ongoing maintenance before authorizing work.
