Cabinet Installation in Austin, TX
Cabinets go in fast when the layout is locked, the walls are plumb, and the right jack is on the truck. Crestview kitchen renovations and Clarksville bath upgrades both move on the day we show up — shimmed to level, crown-tied to the ceiling, and hardware-set before the week is out.
- Shimmed and level — set same day
- Crown molding tied in same visit
- Prefab through semi-custom: one crew

| Cabinet installations in Austin run $1,800–$12,500 depending on box count, cabinet line, and crown tie-in scope.

Scope is set at the address — room dimensions and ceiling height determine the final number. |

Our Services
Related Installation Services in Austin
Cabinet installation anchors kitchen and bath renovation projects. These are the services most often sequenced alongside a cabinet set at Austin addresses from Crestview to Travis Heights.
Kitchen Remodeling
Cabinet installation is the structural core of every kitchen remodel. Once Fabuwood or prefab boxes are shimmed and leveled with a Bosch laser, the backsplash tile, crown molding, countertop template, and hardware all sequence off that confirmed install date.
Bathroom Remodeling
Vanity cabinet installation sequencing in Mueller and Tarrytown renovations requires backer board and tile to be complete before the vanity is set. We coordinate the trade order so nothing is reinstalled — cabinets go in on dry, finished substrate every time.
Painting Services
Cabinets often receive a factory-grade spray finish after installation. Sherwin-Williams Emerald in satin or semi-gloss over Insl-X Stix primer gives a durable, cleanable surface. We coordinate the paint window with the cabinet set date so the scope stays on one timeline.
Trim & Baseboard Installation
Crown molding tie-ins at the ceiling line are part of the cabinet scope on Anderson High-area ranches and Clarksville Craftsman renovations. MDF crown is coped at every inside corner — no mitered joints that will open when Crestview’s clay substrate shifts.
Flooring Installation
Base cabinets install after flooring is complete. Once Lifeproof LVP or engineered hardwood is set, we shim cabinets to the finished floor height and run the toekick so the base covers cleanly. The correct sequence prevents any cabinet from sitting proud of the finished floor.
