Funny how fashion goes in circles. Back in the era of WW2 mass-produced tract homes, all you got was plain white cabinets - but were thankful for having your own home after the nation had gone through depression and a war. As people prospered in life they upgraded their cabinets from institutional white to a warmer more natural (and expensive) look of real wood. One piece formica countertops were the quality standard for many decades until natural stone became more available. To my eye, natural wood and stone makes a more beautiful, warm, and welcoming kitchen. Funny how now in the popular remodeling shows people show how sophisticated they fancy themselves by being repulsed at the sight of natural materials saying, "Ewww.. how dated!" So, to "update" the kitchen they rip out the expensive natural materials and make it look like a basic tract home from the 1940's. But anyway, thanks for taking the time to make the video and sharing your diy project.

Nice work Johnny! Super looking forward to the entire series!!!

We ordered Kraftmaid thru a local company in OKC after getting costs from both big box stores and 2 other local cabinet companies. The local cabinet makers said they could not start until the fall due to doing cabinets for a builder. I went back to local store and changed some things and price came down. Kraftmaid was actually on sell in April when I ordered. Prior to ordering 6-8 wks. Day after we ordered they said 8-12 weeks.They arrived at 8 1/2 weeks. We were pretty sure they would come in less than 12, as we only ordered a pantry and 5 lower cabinets. They were delivered last week and we will do install this weekend. Glad I found your videos as they will come in handy. I had not see the pulls you used on your cabinets. Personally I like the original cabinets better. Not a big fan of white cabinets. We were looking at medium wood cabinets but finally went with a midnight blue. Pretty excited to see it redone. Previous owner had put in 1930's cut down cabinets into a 1955 built house. Thin doors and they had been painted 5 times. If they had been like my grandparents cabinets, I would not have minded. These were thin cheap and done out of 4 types of wood. No backs and shallow. Husband and son in law are doing install then local company will come do the countertops. I would tried to reuse the granite counter tops. Glad you donated them. I see so many videos that they just smash them up. Most could have been reused as garage cabinets.

As a plumber, ew sharkbite. As a guy who wants to replace my existing kitchen cabinets I really like your video and explanation. Thanks a bunch!

I know you were sponsored by Lowe’s and need to use their product, but after doing my own kitchen, I have to highly recommend to anyone Ikea’s cabinets. They are cheaper, high quality, 256ear warranty, and SUPER EASY to install. Their rail system makes all that leveling and shimming your doing on each cabinet completely unnecessary. Their online kitchen planner is an easy amazing tool to plan your kitchen, and is smarter than any store employee and will catch any errors made before you buy everything. They also have tons of great features like soft close everything that’s a breeze to install. I never did any remodel or cabinet work in my life and did my kitchen 100% by myself. I really can’t recommend their stuff enough.

Hi

Nice work, but why did you go from a stone top to a laminate top? Curious?

Interesting to see the differences in cabinets and electricals between the US and here in the UK, though the fitting process is very similar. Never yet seen a plastic construction sink unit, but makes perfect sense given the number of water damaged sink units I’ve replaced!

Fantastic job, dude!

Very nice project! Well done👍

Love your videos!!! Cheers from Mexico

Formica downgrade from Granite. Can't tell from the video if the granite was in bad shape but based on the rest of the kitchen, I assumed it was all right. I would definitely put in new granite, leave the formica for the garage workstations. That oven probably costs around $3k, so I bet overall you're in the $11-12k range for new cabinet replacements. I just got done putting in a very small rental kitchen with these Kraftmade cabinets from Menards, but mine had the adjustable feet which I'll admit were nice to fine tune for level and plumb.

If you grew up in the 90s, oak was EVERYTHING!!! Cupboards,trim,tables,chairs,end tables, couch molding/feet, entertainment centers, living room floor speakers and the list goes on. So yeah to some of us it’s ugly and dated.

He did a cost breakdown in the video, including the amount of time it would take to build the cabinets. The question was answered IN the video. For him, it is not about the money, but about the amount of time he would need to dedicate to the fabrication of the cabinets if he did the work himself. The actual dollar cost of doing it himself would be thousands less, but he is probably getting the cabinets for free from Lowes as part of the sponsorship deal. The math will work differently for you. If you don't get it, watch the video again.

Wish this video would have come out last year. Haha. Lots of good tips that I could have used.

Awesome video. I recently installed my dishwasher as well. It’s difficult to tell in the video if you did this or not.

I enjoyed your video. Love your ability and techniques, but I agree with some others. If you aren’t changing the footprint, there are ways to add modern bells and whistles to older model cabinets such as soft close doors and drawers. I hate all the waste in this world. Disposable society. Plus, I happen to love painted wood cabinets.

Amazing

Who else thought the original kitchen was very nice !!

So, the RTA cabinets that the orange competitor sells are all solid birch cabinet grade plywood, full extendable soft close drawer glides, full overlay doors, euro hinges, and nice factory paint. The interiors are heat applied poly finish. The drawer fronts are beech. Oh, and the drawers are dovetail joinery. Each cabinet takes about an hour to assemble. The quality control is outstanding, with pre-drilled holes matching precisely. I have judged the quality between these and the Kraftmaid, and I'd say it pretty darn close. All of this, plus free shipping your door or inside your garage whatever. The receiving time is roughly 3 days. I got my upper cabinets in 2 days. The price is roughly half of what you paid for the Kraftsmaid. The model is Avondale.

Order a stick (maybe 2) of 3-sided solid stock from Kraftmaid, and trim out the bottom (sides & back) of your island with it like baseboard.

Hello just wanted to say awesome video. Also, were did you get your drill bit holder you show in the video thats wrapped around the drill?

What I could see in the video, the old kitchen looked realy nice. With some cleaning and whitening it could had looked better than the new. It would have cost near to nothing compared to renovate the old kitchen. But hey if you got 6-7k to blow, then knock ya self out. I fancy the wood structure and would have lightend it.

Nice new kitchen. Looks great. But why would you go with laminate tops? Check out Stone-Coat Countertops. Cheaper than stone, but customizable to what you want and no yearly up-keep. However, if laminate is what you want, go for it. Also, I'd be more than happy with the previous version of your kitchen. I dont know how old mine is, but the house is ~200 years old. We have a manufactured laminate top on one base cabinet supported by angle iron to a hollow corner cabinet. A roll around cart next to the corner frame and wide open under the sink with a plastic shelving unit slid under. There was nothing next to the one base, but I installed an old dishwasher there (to the right) and that brought us 9 inches from the door to the bedroom. The opposing wall has the fridge, an upright freezer, and a 7cuft chest freezer with an open shelf above the chest for out toaster oven and bread box. All Oak uppers, but the microwave/vent hood is only about 13 inches above the stovetop between the corner cabinet frame and the back door. No island. So, I'd be more than happy with your old kitchen.

I've always heard that you don't want to set cabinets on top of flooring. So the last last remodel seems to have been done correctly, right?

Heat the seam in the granite up with a heat gun next time. I makes the epoxy brittle and you can easily separate the seam so you or someone else can re-use the tops.

Great video! Why did you not install the new kitchen directly on the flooring? Isn't the kitchen less insulated? Thanks

Whot do u do with the shims after putting them to u cut them or take em out i dont get it ...if u take em out wont the cabinet lose level?

What did u do with all the holes the wall had from prior screws ..and what is the point of a ledger strip?

Awesome job as usual! I know you dont have the sink and full plumbing done yet but did you put a highloop in your dishwasher drain? last one i had installed, by a bigbox store even, did not and i had big issues with water from my sink draining into the tub and eventually spilling out.
