We're not just passionate about designing spaces in Los Angeles; we have a real knack for it. At AV Design and Build, we embrace the opportunity to reimagine each home as a place that's uniquely reflective of its owners. We channel that into the work we do—and it shows.
In that spirit, here's a closer look at our cabinet-making endeavor. Imagine the drawers in your kitchen: how they're laid out, how your body memorizes their coordinates. Every drawer handle, every hinge, every upward movement you make as you retrieve a carefully concealed, frequently used item. These functions become beautiful when they're perfectly executed, and we believe anything short of that isn't really
In the busy center of Los Angeles, something as ordinary as cabinets made to order can bring a welcome thrill to one's domicile. That's because the team behind the company that goes by the same name is an actual family of craftsmen. They know what they're doing when it comes to cooking up cabinet solutions tailored to their clients' tastes and needs. The process they follow and the final product they deliver are truly works of art.
Envision that instant when you grasp that even the tiniest shelf in your sitting room is art. This is the magic of genuinely bespoke design. We do not think of ourselves as just builders of cabinets; we consider crafting better living as our mission.
Clients on occasion thank us for the seamless fusion of architecture and interior design that our pieces bring to their living spaces. It is these instances of instagratefulness that drive us. Your home should tell the story that is uniquely yours, and we are here to help you write that narrative in the language of custom cabinetry.

Imagine your kitchen as the heart of your household, where recipes are de rigueur and cabinetry is all but essential. At AV Design and Build, we believe that every shelf, nook, and cranny feels as if it’s carrying part of you—even if it’s not something you’ve ever thought about before. We sit down with our clients, coffee in hand, and talk about the quirky needs and inimitable personal styles that make you, well, you. You might be dreaming about an open shelf situation that allows your cookbooks to cozy up to olive oil, or you might be imagining everything stashed behind sleek, minimalist doors. Our conversations sparkle with ideas, and every detail you share with us (no matter how small) gets a chance to shine.
Every board of dreams you have pinned, every color swatch you have saved, finds its voice when you work with us. When people are searching around for custom cabinets near them, they are often guided to us by the stories we tell about our projects, as if to say: "These people understand how to make what I want, and they have happy customers who look and sound a lot like me."
Perhaps we had this vision of an earthly walnut grain that whispers elegance, or a pop of turquoise to jazz up the morning routine. And if we are all about functionality, worry not—each drawer and compartment knows exactly why it exists and what treasures it holds within.
Creating a space means giving in to those exquisite moments of discovery and delight. Our makers—craftsmen and women, even daydreamers in the art of doing—are kindred spirits of ours. They breathe life into raw materials, treating each project like a warm-up act for its headliner. Maybe you’re dreaming of a space for effortlessly functional organization of your spices. Or perhaps your mind wanders to a hidden compartment for those secret wine moments. Either way, we want your satisfaction to be the gasp heard 'round the Cabinet Opening Ceremony when you first put those doors to work.
Start your home transformation with a no-obligation consultation where we listen to your ideas and goals. Our experienced designers will work with you to create a vision for your new kitchen, bathroom, or cabinet layout. We then provide a detailed and transparent estimate, so you know exactly what to expect in terms of costs and timelines. This initial step ensures we are aligned with your vision and budget before any work begins
Once the design is approved, our skilled team gets to work, managing every aspect of the build-out with precision and care. We pride ourselves on a streamlined construction process that minimizes disruption to your daily life, keeping the job site clean and organized. You can expect regular updates and communication from your dedicated project manager throughout the entire process. Our commitment is to complete your project on time and to the highest standards of quality craftsmanship.
As we near completion, we conduct a thorough final walkthrough with you to ensure every detail meets your expectations. This is your opportunity to review the finished work and point out any final adjustments that may be needed. We are not finished until you are completely satisfied and have signed off on your beautiful new space. Your final approval is the most important milestone in our process.
Envision a kitchen that narrates your tale. At AV Design and Build, we consider it an imperative that your cabinets do more than just perform under the pressures of everyday life. They have to capture what makes you, you. Shed the notion of merely fitting things into basic compartments, a design principle that even well-performing storage elements inside cabinets often embody, and imagine the creative expression that our local cabinetmaker can help you realize.
Ever found yourself in a room, you know, that just feels right? That's the magic we try to work with our custom cabinets. What makes your home yours? (Think about it.) Are there quirky coffee mugs you can buy like it's nobody's business? Or maybe it's art supplies that aren't content in any old spot, and just hanging around isn't working for them or for you? We get why those details matter, and the big impact they can have. Because, truly, not every cabinet is a magic cabinet.
There is a unique pleasure in entering a space and knowing that you are truly at home. Maybe it's the way a drawer pulls out to meet you, or how some small detail catches the light on a perfect morning. You love those little things, and finding them in your house makes a big difference. Let's have a conversation about what matters most to you, and then design something that aligns with your life. Our team is all ears, listening closely and working hard to create spaces that feel personal and inviting. Every cabinet is a reflection of what you keep close, and is made with a nice helping of care and inspiration.
At AV Design and Build, we think your home reflects your unique personality. That's why each of our cabinets serves as an emblem of the client's taste and lifestyle. Envision your kitchen, living room, or office as the proud showcase of any number of our cabinet designs. Or imagine the conferences rooms at your next office retreat with the proud statement any of our top BA designs could make. The next step is to bring your vision to the kitchen (or any other room with our designs) and make it a beautiful, practical reality.
The disorganization that clutter brings can be an enemy of the homeowner, but our custom cabinets offer a perfect solution. Our designs take aim at your space, giving it the direction it needs to become an organized, even serene—if we can get away with that word—environment. Whether it’s a small nook or a kitchen of a size that bazillions have chosen to cover the Earth, we go to work finding ways to give even every inch a purpose.
At AV Design and Build, we only use the highest quality materials, guaranteed to let your cabinets withstand the tests of time. When you have us design and build your cabinets, you can rest assured you're investing in something that, as they say, has quality that endures. No more worrying about rickety cabinet structures or the hassle of frequent replacements. Enjoy the durable craftsmanship of well-built cabinets that maintain your space's look.
Working together is at the core of our business. We work together with you to understand what you're looking for and where you want to go before we even think about starting. This partnership ensures that what you get at the end isn't just your vision realized—it's your vision times two. We've never had a client whose ideas didn't blossom under our guidance.
In Los Angeles, costs for custom cabinetry can range infinitely based on diverse elements. These include but are not limited to: materials, the complexity of the design, finishes, and the project's overall size. I find it best to give an average, which is anywhere from $500 to $1,500 per linear foot. The more elaborate the designs, or the more you use premium materials throughout, the more that cost is going to go up. On the other hand, if your project is on the simpler side, expect to pay something more in the 500 range.
In Los Angeles, custom cabinets generally cost anywhere from $15,000 to $30,000 on average, and they can cost more or less depending on certain factors. The chief among those is size, followed by materials and then design.
Cabinets that are made to order in Los Angeles typically cost more than off-the-shelf cabinets because of the degree of personalization in the design, materials, and workmanship. However, this heightened level of customization comes with some distinct advantages. For one, you're able to achieve a look that's more in line with your personal aesthetic. For another, you're able to create a storage solution that's a perfect fit for the unique size and layout of your space.
Affirmative. Lowe's provides custom cabinet services within the jurisdiction of Los Angeles. Customers can collaborate with Lowe's design experts to fabricate cabinets that are specific to the customers' unique needs and preferences.
Los Angeles custom cabinets can have a few drawbacks. To start with, they can be a lot more expensive than pre-made options, simply because they're custom and well-made. Then, they tend to take a lot longer to arrive, as they're made to order (that's if you can even find someone who'll make them for you these days; see below). They also tend to require a lot more decision-making on the part of the purchaser, which can be a burden if you don't already have a clear vision of what you want. Finally, once you go through with it, there's not really any way to modify your installed cabinets without shelling out more money for new ones, so the lack of flexibility is a real consideration.
The expense associated with remodeling a 10x10 kitchen in Los Angeles can differ vastly due to the myriad specifying factors. These include the quality of materials, the degree to which the kitchen is remodeled, and the custom cabinetry that many of us, including myself, demand as part of a competent, remodeler-accessible kitchen. If you even have hopes of attaining a competent level of DIY office accessibility, you can plan on paying, anyway, from $15,000 to $40,000 for a midtier remodeling experience—"a contractor" I am not.
Consider these strategies to save money on custom cabinetry in Los Angeles:1. Material ChoicesChoose inexpensive materials like plywood instead of solid wood. Or, if you want to use a solid wood type, choose a less expensive type like oak or maple.2. Design SimplicityMaintain simplicity in the design and steer clear of complex details or superfluous ornamentation, which can drive up costs.3. Local CraftsmenEmploy nearby carpenters to sidestep hefty freight costs and possibly secure lower prices.4. Reuse and RepurposeIncorporating cabinetry you already have is the way to go. If you can, use the cabinets that are in your space. And if you can't use them as-is, get creative! Repurpose them somehow—refinish them, put new knobs on them, or make some other small, affordable, yet impactful change in order to use those cabinets rather than getting new ones.5. Bulk OrderingIf you can, place an order for your cabinetry that spans several areas of your home. Doing so may allow you to take advantage of bulk discounts.6. Timing and FlexibilityCoordinate for the installation to occur during a season of less demand, when both costs and actual demand for what you are having installed may be at a low point, and also try to be as flexible as possible with lead times.7. DIY FinishingThink about doing some of the final tasks yourself, for instance, applying paint or stain, to reduce the costs of labor.8. Comparison ShoppingObtain several estimates from various cabinet makers to enable price comparison and the negotiation of more favorable terms.
Labor costs for installing custom cabinets in Los Angeles can vary from $50 to $150 per hour per worker. These rates reflect the installation's complexity and the cabinet's size and number. Total labor costs for a project usually range from $500 to $2,000, not including the cabinets themselves. Because so many factors influence the cost, we recommend getting quotes from several contractors before deciding on who will do the work.
In Los Angeles, the investment in custom cabinets frequently proves worthwhile. The reason? The spaces we inhabit demand uniqueness. And when it comes to cabinetry, that uniqueness not only satisfies our myriad personal design preferences but also ensures that our homes function in ways best suited to us. If this were all there was to the argument, it might not hold much weight. But there's something else: the craftsmanship and materials used in making custom cabinets, along with their durability and sheer presence, far outclass the alternatives that one usually finds in big-box stores.
Indeed, $30,000 can suffice for a kitchen remodel in Los Angeles, depending on what you really want. If you want custom cabinetry, you need to really budget for it, because that is more than likely on the high end of what you are going to pay for anything in the kitchen. You can easily (and I mean easily) spend half of your overall remodel cost on custom cabinets, or more, and not have them be high-end, meaning not as good as they should be in terms of quality, not as good as they can be in terms of what your vision is.
