Custom Kitchen Cabinets in Bluffton, SC
Your kitchen cabinets set the whole room — how it cooks, how it stores, and how it feels at 7 in the morning. Bluffton Custom Cabinets builds kitchen cabinets to your room's actual measurements, so corners fit, fillers disappear, and every inch works.
There are three tiers, and the honest difference is how much is built to order. Stock cabinets run $100–$285 a linear foot installed. Semi-custom — the tier most Bluffton kitchens land in — runs $190–$615. Fully custom, built to the inch in the wood you pick, runs $475–$1,140.
Wood moves the price inside each tier. Oak sits at the low end, maple is the baseline, cherry runs about 15% over maple, and walnut about 30% over. Your written estimate names the tier, the wood, and the finish, so the price is checkable line by line.
We measure in your home before we quote — never from a floor plan alone. Lowcountry kitchens hide things: floors out of level from settling, walls that bow, and humidity that has been working on the old boxes for years. Measuring in person is how the install goes in clean.
Most full kitchens take 2–4 days to install once the cabinets are built. We protect the floors, keep the room as usable as we can while we work, and walk every door and drawer with you before the job is done.
Stock, Semi-Custom, or Fully Custom?
Stock cabinets are factory sizes in factory finishes — the fastest and cheapest route, and the right call for a rental, a flip, or a laundry room. The trade-off is filler strips where the sizes do not match your walls.
Semi-custom opens up sizes, finishes, and storage options while keeping factory efficiency. Fully custom means the cabinet is built for the space it lands in — odd corners, tall ceilings, and matched grain are all on the table. Stacked cabinets to a tall ceiling add roughly 10% and are worth it in Lowcountry homes with 10-foot ceilings.
Storage That Earns Its Keep
The cabinets themselves are only half the job. Deep drawers where the pots live, a real pantry cabinet, tray dividers, and pull-outs where you would otherwise be on your knees — that is the part of a kitchen you feel every day.
Tell us how you cook at the estimate visit and we will lay the storage out around it. The design conversation is part of the free visit — and it is also where cabinet refacing sometimes wins, when the boxes are solid and only the face needs to change.
How much does a 20-foot kitchen cost?
In semi-custom, the most common tier: 20 feet at $190–$615 a foot is $3,800–$12,300 installed, before countertops. Stock lands lower, fully custom higher. The calculator on our home page runs your footage at your tier.
Do you remove the old cabinets?
Yes — tear-out and haul-off are part of a full replacement job, and we tell you the cost in the written estimate. If you are only having cabinets installed, removal of the old run figures at $15–$20 a foot.
Can you match my existing cabinets?
Usually, yes for an addition or a repair run — we match door style, wood, and finish as closely as the material allows, and we show you a sample before we build. Perfect matches on aged wood are not always possible and we will say so up front.
How long from measure to install?
Stock is fastest, custom takes the longest because it is built to order. We put the full schedule in writing before you sign — no surprises about which week install lands.
