Built-ins sized to your room

Vanities & storage

Cabinetry measured for the wall you actually have, with drawers that clear the plumbing and a top that does not stain.

01

What this actually involves

Stock vanities come in 24, 30, 36, 48 and 60 inch widths. Real bathrooms rarely do. When a wall measures 41 inches, a 36 inch vanity leaves a dead gap and a 48 will not fit, so most people settle. We build to the wall instead.

Our cabinets are made by a shop in Marshall, about 20 minutes north of the studio. Plywood boxes, soft-close hardware, and drawer banks notched around the trap so you get usable depth rather than a false front.

Tops are the part people underestimate. Honed marble is beautiful and will etch under toothpaste. Quartz will not. We will show you both and tell you honestly which one suits how your household lives.

  • No filler panels beside the cabinet
  • Drawers instead of a single cupboard you have to kneel into
  • Sconces at face height so you can actually see to shave
  • Cabinet shop 20 minutes away if anything needs adjusting later

What is included

Everything below is in the base scope. Nothing here is an upgrade line we take out to make a number look better.

Site measure and drawing

Elevation drawn to scale so you see drawer heights before anything is cut.

Local cabinet fabrication

Plywood boxes and solid fronts built to your width, not the nearest stock size.

Plumbing-notched drawers

Drawer banks routed around the trap so the space under the sink is actually usable.

Stone or quartz top

Templated after the cabinet is set, with a matched backsplash or a tiled wall.

Mirror and lighting

Mirror sized to the vanity and sconces placed at face height, not overhead.

Linen and niche storage

Recessed shelving between studs where the room has no spare floor area.

03

How the work runs

Five stages, in order, with the same crew on site from the first day to the last.

  1. Measure

    Walls, floor level and plumbing positions recorded on site.

  2. Drawing

    Elevation and drawer layout for your approval.

  3. Fabrication

    Three to four weeks at the cabinet shop.

  4. Install

    Cabinet set and scribed, plumbing connected.

  5. Top and mirror

    Stone templated, fitted, then mirror and lighting.

04

What moves the price

Four things that change the number

These are the decisions we talk through at the measuring visit, because each one moves the figure more than the tile you pick.

Door or drawer fronts

A drawer bank costs more than doors because of hardware and notching, and it is the upgrade clients mention most afterwards.

Top material

Quartz sits in the middle. Honed marble costs more and etches. A solid wood top costs less and needs oiling twice a year.

Double sink

Two basins need 60 inches to feel comfortable. Under that, one basin and more counter is the better room.

Wall condition

Plaster walls in older homes are rarely flat. Scribing a cabinet to a wavy wall is skilled work and adds a few hours.

Questions about this work

Three to four weeks in the shop after you approve the drawing. We schedule the install for the week it arrives so nothing sits in a garage.

Usually. Bring us a photo or a drawer front and the shop will match profile and finish closely. Exact stain matches on old wood are harder and we will say so up front.

Not bad, just honest about what it does. It etches from acidic products and develops a patina. If that bothers you, quartz looks similar and behaves better.

Yes, as part of a larger project. We will check dimensions before you order so it actually fits the wall and the drain height.
