What Actually Happens During Cabinet Installation

SV Construction starts by locating wall studs and confirming that your walls are plumb before any cabinets go up in your Ridgeland home. Wall cabinets are installed first using a ledger board to support weight during positioning, and base cabinets follow once the uppers are secured and level.

After installation, you will notice that cabinet doors align evenly, drawers slide without binding, and there are no visible gaps between units or along the wall. Cabinets sit flush against adjacent surfaces, and hardware holes line up properly for knobs or pulls you plan to add later.

This service works alongside trim carpentry and molding installation if you are planning a full kitchen or bathroom refresh. The installation does not include plumbing hookups, countertop fabrication, or electrical work, but it does prepare the space for those follow-up tasks. Once cabinets are in place, your contractor or tradesperson can move forward with the next phase of your remodel.

Questions People Ask Before Installing Cabinets

Homeowners planning a cabinet installation in Ridgeland often want to know how long the work takes, what preparation is required, and whether their walls or floors will cause any issues. These questions help clarify what to prepare for and what the installer will handle on site.

What do I need to do before the installer arrives?
Remove everything from the old cabinets if they are still in place, and make sure the walls are clear and accessible. You should also confirm that your new cabinets are on site and unboxed so the installer can inspect them before starting.
How long does cabinet installation usually take?
A typical kitchen with 10 to 15 cabinets takes one to two full days depending on wall condition and whether any adjustments are needed for plumbing or electrical. Bathroom vanity installs are usually completed in a few hours.
What happens if my floors or walls are not level?
The installer uses shims under base cabinets to level them even if your floor slopes, and wall cabinets are shimmed out from the wall if needed. You will not see the shims once the cabinets are in place and toe kicks are installed.
Why does the installer need to find studs?
Wall cabinets are heavy, especially once you load them with dishes or pantry items, so they must be fastened directly into wall studs to prevent sagging or pulling away from the wall over time.
What tools are used during installation?
Installers use a laser level or long straight edge to check alignment, a drill for mounting screws, shims for leveling, and clamps to hold adjacent cabinets together while fastening them. Cabinets are secured with cabinet screws driven through the back rail into studs.
