If you are planning a renovation or adding storage to an existing room in Gainesville, reach out to discuss cabinet options and material selections.

What changes when cabinetry is installed correctly

The installation begins with precise measurements of the room, including walls, floors, and any existing trim or features that affect cabinet placement. In Gainesville homes with older framing or settling, Done W Right Painting & Renovation levels and shims cabinets during installation so doors and drawers operate smoothly and do not drift open or closed on their own. Countertops are templated after cabinets are secured, so edges align cleanly without gaps.

Once the cabinetry is in place, you will notice doors that close evenly without adjustment, drawers that glide without sticking, and shelves that sit level so items do not slide forward. Hardware is installed with screws that bite into solid wood, not particle board, so handles and pulls stay tight over time. Finishes are chosen for resistance to moisture, heat, and daily contact, so surfaces do not peel, warp, or discolor within a few years.

Custom cabinets are built to exact dimensions and can include specialized storage such as pull-out shelves, lazy Susans, or vertical dividers for baking sheets and cutting boards. Semi-custom cabinets offer a range of sizes and finishes at a lower cost while still providing durability and a clean installation. Both options are ideal for renovations and historic upgrades where cabinetry must fit irregular walls or match period details.

Most homeowners want to know how to choose between custom and semi-custom cabinets, what happens if walls are uneven, and whether existing trim or flooring needs to be removed. These are a few of the practical concerns that come up before a cabinet installation begins.

Questions that come up during cabinet planning

What is the difference between custom and semi-custom cabinets?
Custom cabinets are built to exact dimensions and specifications, which is helpful in rooms with unusual layouts or when you need specialized storage. Semi-custom cabinets come in standard sizes with a range of finishes and options, offering durability and quality at a lower cost.
How do you install cabinets when floors are uneven or walls are out of plumb?
Done W Right Painting & Renovation levels cabinets using shims and adjustments during installation so doors and drawers operate smoothly. This is common in older Gainesville homes where floors have settled or walls have shifted over time.
Can you install built-ins in historic homes without damaging original details?
Yes, the team installs cabinetry and built-ins in historic Gainesville homes without disturbing original plaster, trim, or flooring. Careful planning ensures new storage fits cleanly while preserving period features.
How long do cabinet installations usually take?
Most installations take between two and five days depending on the number of cabinets, the complexity of the layout, and whether countertops are being installed at the same time. You will receive a timeline during the planning phase that accounts for your specific project.
What materials hold up best in kitchens and bathrooms?
Done W Right Painting & Renovation selects materials based on how you use the space, prioritizing solid wood frames, plywood boxes, and finishes that resist moisture and heat. Drawer slides and hinges are chosen for smooth operation and long-term durability.

If you need more storage, better organization, or cabinets that match how you actually use your home, Done W Right Painting & Renovation can walk you through custom and semi-custom options that fit your space and budget.
