Frequently Asked Questions

Custom Kitchen Renewal is BMD's craftsmanship-led alternative to traditional cabinet refacing. When the existing cabinet boxes and layout are a good fit, BMD keeps them in place and replaces the doors and drawer fronts with custom-built components. Hardware, visible cabinet surfaces, and selected modifications are coordinated as part of the project scope.

If your existing cabinet boxes are structurally sound and the layout works, Custom Kitchen Renewal can change the visible cabinet components without replacing the entire cabinet structure. It is a different scope from new cabinetry, so Ben reviews each kitchen before recommending it.

A typical Custom Kitchen Renewal installation takes 4 to 5 days. Ben confirms the expected schedule after reviewing the project scope.

No. Because we are working with your existing kitchen layout and cabinet structure, your countertops, appliances, plumbing, and overall kitchen remain in place throughout the process. There may be brief periods where certain cabinet areas are inaccessible during installation, but your kitchen remains functional for the vast majority of the project.

Cabinet painting simply changes the color of your existing doors and surfaces. Custom Kitchen Renewal goes much further. Most projects include brand new custom doors and drawer fronts, upgraded hardware, detailed surface preparation, grain refinement where needed, architectural trim work, and professional sprayed cabinet grade finishes designed specifically for long term durability and a furniture grade appearance. This is not a quick cosmetic repaint. It is a full visual and functional transformation built around craftsmanship.

Most Custom Kitchen Renewal projects fall between $8,000 to $12,000, compared to $25,000 or more for a full remodel. The exact number depends on the size of the kitchen, door style, finish selection, and the amount of custom modification involved.

Yes. Ben can review the existing cabinetry, measurements, design direction, and possible project scope in your home. There is no consultation fee and no obligation.

The typical range is a planning reference. The exact price depends on the final project scope, kitchen size, selected details, and custom modifications.

Door style, finish direction, hardware, and any layout modifications are discussed as part of defining the project scope. Ask Ben what review materials are available for your project.

The biggest factor is whether your existing cabinet structure is still solid. If your cabinet boxes are structurally sound and your overall kitchen layout still works for your home, Custom Kitchen Renewal is often the ideal solution. It allows you to dramatically transform the appearance and feel of the kitchen without unnecessary demolition or the cost of rebuilding cabinetry that is already functioning well. During the consultation, our team evaluates the condition of the cabinetry and helps determine whether the process is the right fit for your space.

Then we will tell you honestly. Some kitchens need cabinet modifications, additional cabinetry, layout improvements, or more extensive work beyond a standard renewal process. Other kitchens may have structural damage or existing construction issues that make a full replacement the better long term solution. Our goal is not to force every kitchen into the same system. Our goal is to help you make the right decision for your home. If a project falls outside what we believe will produce a high quality result, we will explain that clearly and walk through your options with you.

Kitchens are the primary focus of BMD, but our craftsmanship extends far beyond kitchens alone. With more than 25 years of millwork and woodworking experience, our team also works on built-ins, libraries, mudrooms, closets, fireplace surrounds, wall details, custom door replacements, and other architectural woodworking projects throughout the home. If you have a project outside the kitchen, feel free to reach out and we will let you know if it is something we are the right fit for.

BMD primarily serves homeowners throughout Middle Tennessee within a 30-mile radius of Spring Hill, including areas like Franklin, Brentwood, Nolensville, Columbia, Nashville, and Murfreesboro.
