Our Process:
Custom Cabinetry Design Consultation:
Your personalized kitchen cabinet design begins with an in-depth consultation to understand your needs, preferences, and budget. These discussions are centered around identifying the general style and scope of your project. Including any inspirational images selected by you, we will gather the facts and ideas of the project and from there provide a clear sense of the journey ahead.
Project Estimate:
After gathering all necessary information and establishing a preliminary layout—whether completed by your architect, interior designer, or us—BradleyBuilt will provide a complimentary estimate of anticipated costs. This estimate will be meticulously detailed, offering a clear understanding of the investment required. BradleyBuilt cabinetry is a premium, bespoke solution, designed for those who value exceptional craftsmanship and unparalleled attention to detail. Our pricing reflects the high standard of work we deliver, and while it may not align with budget or discount options, it represents a true investment in quality that will enhance your home for years to come. Barring any significant changes, this estimate is expected to fall within 10% of the final contracted cost.
Services Retained:
After thoroughly reviewing your project estimate, we will answer any additional questions you may have regarding overall design and cost. Once project parameters are finalized and we have earned your trust, you will officially retain our services. At this stage, we will ask for a 10% retainer on the full value of your estimate. This is not an additional payment, as the full retainer will be credited to your final project invoice.
Design Process:
At this stage, we begin the development of your project, finalizing major design plans and elevations. Timing varies during this process and is dependent on our stock, our vendors supply and timeline. From concept to completion, the design process can take 2-6 weeks to finalize. During this stage in the process we will visit your home or project site to confirm measurements and familiarize ourselves with your space. Visiting our showroom can be beneficial during this time to make design decisions and view samples.
Once you are completely satisfied with the design and all decisions are made regarding content and finishes, a final financial statement for the project will be created, reflecting any upgrades or changes that were made during the design process. Prior to production, a deposit for the fabrication will become due.
Production:
Fabrication: Our craftsmen build your cabinetry to exact specifications in our shop. Plan on 8-12 weeks from design sign-off, depending on the project specifications. This is our average lead time, but we will try to accommodate special requests and projects with time constraints. Your project contract will include the most up-to-date information to follow as a guide.
Installation:
Our professional installation team ensures a perfect fit and flawless finish. Prior to delivery, your project manager will communicate the details of your installation and the expected timeline from delivery to installation. The balance on the fabrication and delivery of your cabinetry will need to be received prior to the delivery of your cabinets. Installations are performed by our skilled craftsmen who are familiar with every detail of your cabinetry and will review the completed project with you before sign-off.
Post-Production:
Just because the project is completed doesn't mean the end of our communication. We check in every 6 months during the first year to inquire about the performance of your cabinetry. We want to ensure you continue to receive the best experience from us and that your cabinetry is operating at maximum performance. Often, our clients become repeat customers, and we are more than happy to keep our products in top shape, regardless of when purchased.
