Cabinet Design
Beta Testing in Progress: Prices are not accurate or quotes. Book a design meeting to receive real pricing.
Cabinet Design lets you lay out the cabinets for your whole job, room by room, and see an approximate price as you go. It's free, it works on a phone or a computer, and you can save your design and come back to it any time.
Watch your estimate update live
The biggest benefit: your estimate changes in real time as you design. Add a cabinet, widen a wall, switch from paint to stained white oak, pick a door style, hardware or a vent hood, and the running total updates right away. You see what each choice does to your budget before you ever meet with us.
What you'll make
These are sample wall drawings made in Cabinet Design. You'll get drawings like these for every wall in your job.
How it works
- Name your rooms. Kitchen, master bath, laundry, closet. Add as many as your job has.
- Add each wall. Type in how long the wall is and where the windows, doors and appliances go.
- Place the cabinets. Base cabinets, uppers, tall pantries and drawers, sized to fit your wall.
- Pick the look. Wood or paint, stain color, door style and hardware. The estimate updates with every change.
- Send it to Tyler. He reviews your design, fixes anything that won't work and gives you a real quote at your free design meeting.
Who it's for
- Homeowners who like to plan and want a rough budget before the first meeting.
- Builders and contractors who need a quick cabinet number for a bid.
- Designers and architects who want to try layouts and finishes with a client.

Finishes are Sherwin-Williams water-based only, sprayed in a satin sheen. Pick any Sherwin-Williams color: browse their color families or collections, or search by name or number.
Add-ons
We don't do lighting or electrical work. Glass-front doors come ready for glass; glass is not included.
Choose your door style
One door style for the whole job. Drawer fronts match the doors. Selected: · See every door and profile in Build a door
Decorative hardware
Pick a style for each room from the Hardware Resources collections, or search by part number. Each room starts with a modern bar pull (Key West/Key Largo).
Styles are Hardware Resources collections (Elements and Jeffrey Alexander); photos courtesy of Hardware Resources. Sizes and finishes vary by collection.
Choose your crown
Crown runs along the top of your wall cabinets and tall cabinets. The flat crown is our standard; the others are upgrades. Sizes are thickness × height.

Floor plan Beta
Send your floor plan. We'll draw a starting design for you.
Have house plans? Instead of measuring every wall yourself, upload the plan and let us do the first pass. The goal is a design you can open, check and change, not a blank page.
- You upload the plan. A PDF of your house plans or kitchen drawings.
- We measure it. Our takeoff measures every cabinet wall, base run, upper run and ceiling height from the plan.
- The design tool draws it. Those measurements come back into Cabinet Design and it lays out the walls and fills them with standard cabinets: sink base and dishwasher in the kitchen, uppers over the base runs, sink bases in the baths.
- You review it. Your preliminary design shows up in My Designs. Move, resize or swap cabinets, pick the look, then send it to Tyler.
This is in Beta. Right now Tyler runs the takeoff for each plan, so a design can take a few business days. It's a good starting point, not a final layout. Tyler checks every design before you get a quote.

Why people work here
A steady job where your ideas matter
Learn on real machines
Every cabinet starts in Mozaik design software and is cut on our CNC router. We'll teach you to run them, not just stand next to them.
A steady paycheck
Year-round work, building and installing kitchens across South Texas. Building since 2018, with 133 houses in 34 towns from 2024 to today.
Three-day weekends
Four long days, Monday to Thursday, then Friday, Saturday and Sunday are yours.
See the whole job
We make our own doors, finish in-house, deliver on our own truck and install with our own crew. You'll see your work in a finished kitchen.
Safety first
Guards on, dust collection running, and nobody gets in trouble for stopping to ask. Go home the way you came in.
How we work
Our guiding principles
- First, do no harm. Before a change or a quick fix, make sure it won't make a worse problem for people, the work or the customer.
- Problems are treasures. A problem you report is raw material for getting better, not a failure. Nobody gets in trouble for speaking up.
- See it. Snap it. One sentence. Back to work. Every problem, near miss or confusing moment goes on the War on Waste board.
- Every problem gets two fixes. Fix this one now, then fix the cause so it can't happen again.
- Ask why. Keep asking why until you find the real cause in the process or the training, not the person.
- Don't pass a defect down the line. Check your work and the work you receive. Stop and fix it instead of passing it on.
- Own it. Shared ownership is no ownership. Every job has one owner.
- Think of the next person. If you see it, fix it or write it down. Don't leave it for the next person.
- Confusion costs money. Unclear drawings or directions are a defect. Ask early; $10 in planning saves $100 in the shop and $1,000 in the field.
Lean, in plain words
The War on Waste
- Waiting, rework, extra steps, hunting for tools: that's waste, and everyone is in on fighting it.
- See a problem or a better way? Put it on our War on Waste board. We read every card.
- A clean, organized shop where every tool has a home.
- Simple written standards for each job, so training is fast and the work is consistent.
- Less running around and fewer do-overs means more time doing the craft.
