Nashville is where the shop is and where most of our work happens. The housing stock is unusually varied for one city: 1920s and 30s bungalows in Sylvan Park and East Nashville with shallow closets and small kitchens, mid-century ranches in Crieve Hall and Bellevue with long walls that were never used, 1990s and 2000s homes in Forest Hills and Oak Hill with builder cabinetry that has reached the end of its life, and new construction in and around Green Hills where the boxes are fine but the storage was never designed.
That variety is the reason we build to the room rather than to a catalog. A pantry in a 1928 bungalow is a different problem from a pantry in a house built last year, and both are solved the same way: measure, draw, build in the shop, install with the same crew.
What do Nashville homeowners usually ask us for?
Kitchens and closets, in that order. Older Nashville homes tend to want a kitchen that finally has enough drawers and a pantry that does not require a step stool, and the closets in those houses are often the size of a phone booth, so a reach-in system or a converted spare bedroom comes up in most conversations. In newer homes the request is usually a walk-in closet rebuilt around how two people actually dress, a media wall to replace the console under the television, and a home office that looks like part of the house rather than a desk in a corner.
Garage storage has become a steady request across the city as well, particularly in neighborhoods where the garage is the only real storage the house has.
What is different about working on a home in Nashville?
Older houses here are rarely square or plumb, which is exactly why we measure every wall and scribe cabinetry to fit rather than shimming stock boxes into place. Many of them also sit in historic overlays where exterior changes are regulated, but interior cabinetry and storage are not, so a full kitchen or closet can usually proceed on the normal permit path for any plumbing or electrical work. Parking, access and neighbor courtesy matter on the narrow streets closer to downtown, and we plan deliveries and site protection around them.
The look
The kind of work we bring to Nashville
Do you build custom cabinets for older homes in Nashville?
Yes. Older Nashville homes are a large part of our work, and we build to the actual walls rather than to nominal sizes, scribing face frames and fillers so the cabinetry reads as original to the house. Plumbing and electrical changes are handled by licensed trades we schedule.
How long does a custom closet take in Nashville?
Most closet projects run a few weeks from approved design to installation, with the installation itself usually taking a day or two. The shop build happens off site, so your home is only a job site for the install. Larger walk-ins with islands and lighting take longer, and we give you a written schedule before we start.
Do you offer a free consultation in Nashville?
Yes. The first visit is free and in your home. We measure, look at how the room is used, and come back with drawings, renderings and a written quote that prices each option separately, so you can decide with real numbers in front of you.
