1. The Limitations Of IKEA & IKEA Kitchen Installation Services.
So you're sold on getting IKEA kitchen cabinets.
GREAT!!!
IKEA's cabinets are an amazing value for your new kitchen...
And we can confidently say that, even with us manufacturing our own line of custom cabinets...
But does that take care of the rest of your remodel?
Common sense tells us "no"...
But many of our clients are surprised when we tell them that IKEA is strictly limited to two things:
- Putting boxes in a pre-existing (IMPORTANT DISTINCTION) room.
- Installing ONLY those boxes in that room.
Let's drill down on the first point...
IKEA offers a basic planning service that essentially places their cabinets in a pre-existing room...
Why is this an important distinction? Because if you're looking to do a major remodel that included moving/removing walls, doing an open concept kitchen, etc, you're going to need a set plans with dimensions that show your new kitchen layout BEFORE you ever step foot inside IKEA...
IKEA planners are NOT kitchen design specialists...
And they are not trained nor equipped with the knowledge and skills to design your kitchen in a space that doesn't exist yet...
Along with that, IKEA kitchen planners can only use IKEA parts/materials for planning your kitchen. That means that in the common event that you're stuck with an odd filler section that IKEA products wont fit into, you're stuck with dead space that "cannot be utilized as functional"...
Now...
When we design kitchens for our clients that want IKEA cabinets, we're not limited to "just IKEA" parts/materials...
We've discovered over the last 10 years how to perfectly incorporate 3rd party products with the IKEA system to maximize the functionality of your new kitchen...
But because this isn't something thats in IKEA's best interest, it's not allowed by their planners...
They also do this with companies like ours that manufacture custom doors that specifically fit IKEA's kitchen cabinet system, which more often than not, allows you to create custom cabinet solutions that IKEA doesn't offer simply because of their standardized sizes of cabinets...
Now let's get to the second limitation of IKEA kitchen installers: The only thing they do is install IKEA kitchen cabinets. PERIOD.
This means that if you need demolition, electrical work, plumbing, framing, architectural planning & design, backsplash, flooring, etc (the rest of what makes a remodel) then you're on your own for finding your own subs to do the work...
And if you don't have dreams of becoming a remodeling contractor, then chances are you also don't have the vetted connections and relationships with the sub contractors that you'll need to complete your IKEA kitchen remodel...
But hiring a full service remodeling company that specializes in using IKEA kitchen cabinets for their clients will eliminate you spending hours and hours of your time submitting bid requests on yelp, home advisor, houzz, etc HOPING to find the right sub contractors for your project...
PLUS, when a full service remodeling company handles your kitchen project, they can create, control & implement a schedule with their subs that rarely changes. Meaning, you're not subject to the random availability of sub contractors that you don't know...

2. The Knowledge Gap: Your Kitchen Is More Than IKEA Cabinets
Do you have soffits you want removed?
Do you want to frame in an exterior door for more cabinet storage & countertop space?
Do you want to remove a structural load-bearing wall that separates your kitchen from your living/dining room to create an open concept floor plan that includes a new island?
Then don't hire an IKEA planner or the basic "IKEA kitchen installer"...
I've touched on this above, but just keep in mind that if you're looking to completely gut your kitchen and create a brand new layout or open concept, then you're going to need to hire someone to create those plans for you before ever stepping foot inside IKEA...
When we get clients that want IKEA kitchen cabinets installed, we offer them our complete design service that allows them to see the kitchen they've been imagining having for that last few months, or even years...
Once those plans are completed, we then build-out the entire IKEA shopping list, plus any other 3rd party materials needed to install the best custom IKEA kitchen possible...
And don't forget...
For all other things related to the construction of your new remodel, we can handle too...
Heck, you could leave town for a couple weeks, never step foot inside IKEA again, and come home to a turn-key, completely transformed, brand new kitchen...
Most homeowners don't know what they don't know...
And it costs them thousands of dollars and countless hours that they'll never get back...
Hiring a full service remodeling firm that specializes in IKEA kitchen cabinet installations, plus all things related to the design & construction of your new kitchen, will save you time and the headache that comes along with any remodeling project...
3. The One-Stop Shop: From Design To Completion
The benefits of a design & build firm that specializes in installing IKEA kitchen cabinets are many, but one of the biggest benefits is that of having one company oversea the entire project from design to completion of construction...
And to go a bit deeper, the benefit is that of having a dedicated designer for your project in constant communication with your dedicated contractor...
Any issues that arise during construction when it comes to the need of adjusting plans, schedules, etc can be quickly & easily resolved due to the constant and direct communication between your designer & contractor...
Thus removing you as being the unnecessary "middle man"...
Your designer knows EXACTLY how your finished kitchen should look and will make sure that their partner contractor will get the job done EXACTLY THE WAY YOU WANT IT...
There's no need to shop around "hoping" that this kind of business relationship will naturally progress from connecting an IKEA planner with a contractor thats never done an IKEA kitchen installation before...
Make it easy on yourself and remove the guesswork 🙂

4. The Value Of Your Time & The Waiting For An IKEA Kitchen Installer When You Don't Have To...
If you're considering using IKEA's kitchen installers, more often than not you'll be delaying your project waiting for them to come to your home to install your cabinets...
This is because IKEA has decided to sub out their work to one company across the United States...
And to be honest, with IKEA being the LARGEST kitchen cabinet manufacturer in the world, they cannot keep up with demand, nor can they train people to become experts in carpentry fast enough...
So the process, is slow and drawn out, and you could be waiting weeks or even months to get your IKEA kitchen cabinets installed...
Now if you have the time, great...
But if you're tired of looking at and working in your ugly & dysfunctional kitchen...
And you REFUSE TO WAIT any longer, then reach out to us for a quote 🙂
5. IKEA Order Management Services: The Love/Hate Relationship With IKEA That You Cant Afford To Have
When it comes to IKEA kitchen cabinets, the product is hard to beat when it comes to value...
However, the logistics of their shipping & delivery can be a nightmare...
When you sign off on your delivery forms at the store, you're also signing of on a delivery contract that states you only have 48 hours to report any discrepancies on your delivery. This includes and damaged, missing or mis-picked parts...
And with us doing 200+ IKEA kitchens a year, 95% of the deliveries have issues that need immidiate attention...
What happens after the 48 hour window?
You're stuck re-purchasing the parts that you need...
Not to mention, you run the risk of multiple trips back and forth to IKEA...
And since there isn't an IKEA on every corner, that could cost you hours of your time on the road and extra money that I'm sure you didn't have in your initial budget...
What if you could hire a full service remodeling company that could handle all of this for you?
Let's face it , odds are you work hard, otherwise you wouldn't be remodeling your kitchen...
So why would you force yourself to have to deal with this problem that comes from hiring a company that ONLY does IKEA kitchen cabinet installations?

7. Extended Labor Warranties: Your Best Friend When Doing An IKEA Kitchen Remodel
The standard warranty on labor is 12 months for most, if not all trades...
