Cabinetry that defines your kitchen

Kitchen cabinets occupy up to 40% of your visual space. The right choice transforms everything—from daily meal prep to holiday gatherings.

When homeowners across Ann Arbor, Birmingham, and Plymouth start planning their kitchen renovations, cabinet selection becomes the cornerstone decision that shapes everything else. Wright’s Renovations understands this intimately because we’ve guided hundreds of Michigan families through this exact process, helping them navigate the seemingly endless options to find cabinetry that genuinely fits their lifestyle.

Your cabinets determine more than storage capacity. They establish the visual rhythm of your kitchen, influence how light moves through the space, and directly impact your daily cooking experience. A poorly chosen cabinet layout creates frustration every time you reach for a pot or search for spices. Thoughtfully designed cabinetry paired with quality countertops makes your kitchen feel intuitive, efficient, and genuinely yours.

Southeast Michigan homes present unique considerations that national cabinet retailers simply cannot address. The humidity fluctuations between our humid summers and dry winters demand specific wood species and finishing techniques. Historic homes in Dexter and Chelsea often require custom solutions that respect original architectural details while delivering modern functionality.

Why Wright’s

The Wright’s Renovations difference

Your kitchen cabinets are a significant investment. Here’s why Michigan homeowners trust our team to get it right.

Quality-first installation

Our crews have installed thousands of cabinets across Oakland County and beyond. Precise leveling, secure mounting, and meticulous alignment ensure doors close perfectly and drawers glide smoothly for decades. We never rush installation because we understand that poor installation ruins even premium cabinets.

Michigan-specific solutions

We select materials and finishes that thrive in Michigan’s variable climate. From humidity-resistant construction methods to finish choices that withstand temperature swings, your cabinets will perform beautifully whether you live in a newer Canton home or a century-old farmhouse in Saline.

Real-time project tracking

Through our JobTread project management platform, you’ll always know exactly where your project stands. Daily photo updates, milestone notifications, and transparent scheduling eliminate the anxiety that typically accompanies home renovation projects.

Design expertise included

Cabinet layout optimization requires understanding traffic patterns, storage needs, and ergonomic principles. Our design consultation identifies opportunities you might miss—like corner cabinet solutions, appliance garage placement, and drawer versus door configurations that maximize your space and streamline your daily routine.

Materials

Premium materials, exceptional results

The materials inside your cabinets matter as much as the visible surfaces. We partner with suppliers who share our commitment to quality, sourcing materials that perform beautifully in Michigan homes.

  • Solid hardwoods

    Maple, cherry, hickory, and oak provide unmatched durability and natural beauty. Each species offers distinct grain patterns and staining characteristics that create truly unique kitchen transformations.

  • Painted MDF

    Medium-density fiberboard delivers flawlessly smooth painted surfaces without the natural expansion and contraction of solid wood. Ideal for achieving that perfect white or gray finish trending in contemporary Plymouth kitchens.

  • Quality hardware

    Soft-close hinges, full-extension drawer slides, and premium pulls make daily use a pleasure. We source hardware from trusted manufacturers like Blum and Amerock, ensuring mechanisms that perform flawlessly for years.

Why cabinet quality matters for your Michigan home

Homeowners in Southeast Michigan face unique challenges that directly impact cabinet longevity. The dramatic swing from summer humidity levels exceeding 70% to winter indoor air as dry as 25% places extraordinary stress on cabinetry. Cheaper cabinets constructed with particleboard cores and thin veneers often fail within a decade—warping, delaminating, and developing structural problems that no amount of repair can fix.

Quality construction begins with plywood box construction using proper moisture barriers and finished interiors. This isn’t about premium pricing for prestige; it’s about materials that remain stable through seasonal changes. When you’re investing in a kitchen island with custom cabinetry, that investment should perform beautifully for twenty years or more.

The connection between cabinet quality and home value also deserves consideration. Real estate agents across Wayne County and Livingston County consistently report that kitchen condition significantly influences buyer perception. Kitchens with quality cabinets photograph better, show better, and command stronger offers. Whether you’re creating your forever kitchen or positioning your home for future sale, cabinet quality directly impacts outcomes.

We also recognize that cabinet replacement often accompanies broader kitchen renovation. Coordinating cabinet installation with new flooring, tile backsplash work, and electrical updates requires careful sequencing. Our project management approach ensures trades don’t conflict, timelines stay realistic, and your kitchen functions again as quickly as possible.

Questions

Common questions about kitchen cabinets

Get answers to the questions we hear most from homeowners planning their cabinet projects.

Ask us anything
How long does cabinet installation take?

For a typical kitchen with 20-30 cabinets, installation requires three to five days once cabinets arrive. Custom orders typically ship within four to six weeks. The complete timeline—from design approval through final installation—usually spans eight to twelve weeks. We coordinate with countertop fabricators and other trades to minimize total project duration.

Should I choose stock, semi-custom, or custom cabinets?

The right choice depends on your budget, timeline, and space requirements. Stock cabinets offer the fastest delivery and lowest cost but limited sizing. Semi-custom provides more flexibility with sizing modifications and finish options. Fully custom cabinets make sense when standard dimensions won’t work or when you want unique features. During your consultation, we help determine which approach delivers the best value for your specific situation.

What cabinet features improve functionality?

Soft-close hinges and drawer slides top most homeowners’ lists—the daily convenience is immediately noticeable. Pull-out trash and recycling bins keep waste hidden while remaining accessible. Lazy Susans and corner pull-outs transform dead corners into usable storage. Drawer organizers, spice pull-outs, and tray dividers keep everything visible and accessible. We discuss these options during design to identify features that match your cooking style.

How much do new kitchen cabinets cost?

Cabinet costs vary significantly based on materials, construction quality, and features. For a typical Southeast Michigan kitchen, expect to invest between $15,000 and $45,000 for cabinets alone, with installation adding another $3,000 to $8,000. Fully custom inset cabinets with premium wood species can exceed these ranges. We provide detailed proposals after measuring your space and understanding your priorities so you can make informed decisions.

Can I keep my existing layout or should I reconfigure?

Keeping your existing layout significantly reduces project cost and timeline since plumbing and electrical remain in place. However, if your current layout creates workflow problems or wastes space, reconfiguration might deliver far better daily function. We evaluate your space during consultation, identifying whether minor adjustments or more substantial changes would best serve your needs. Sometimes moving a single cabinet run transforms how a kitchen works.
