Words of Wisdom:
“It's unwise to pay too much, but it's worse to pay too little. When you pay too much, you lose a little money -- that is all. When you pay too little, you sometimes lose everything, because the thing you bought was incapable of doing the thing it was bought to do. The common law of business balance prohibits paying a little and getting a lot -- it can't be done. If you deal with the lowest bidder, it is well to add something for the risk you run, and if you do that you will have enough to pay for something better.” John Ruskin
How do we get started?
We suggest you contact us to discuss your prospective project. You can then fax or e-mail us a plan or drawing with dimensions for the project space. From here we will generate a cost estimate of the project. If the price is acceptable, we will proceed to the design phase.
The Design Phase
For this we do require a small retainer, about 5% of the total job, to cover the costs of providing drawings and of site visits if necessary. This deposit is fully applied towards the purchase price of your cabinets. Much of the design phase is gathering information. Our goal is to capture your vision, and make it a solid wood reality. Many of our cabinets begin with a client’s collection of magazine clippings and notes we put together to create the kitchen of their dreams. We will work with you to choose the wood types, door styles, varnishes or paint to suit you best. We can also work with your interior designer or architect. After drawing the proposed project on our computer, we will send you the 3-D pictures, elevations, and floor plan so you can visualize the finished project.
Proposal
When the designs have been completed and approved a proposal will be written and produced by Martinwood Cabinetry for the client which will include the final price and delivery schedule.
After signing the proposal, a 45% manufacturing deposit will be due. This deposit begins the construction phase of your project.
After Construction
A 40% payment is due upon completion of the manufacturing stage of your cabinetry. The final 10% will be due after installation stage.We will work with you and your builder to determine the best time for cabinetry delivery and installation. If difficulties arise with your subcontractors that make it impossible for us to install your cabinetry as scheduled, we will reschedule to the next available date.
