The amish supplied this white wax pen thingy to fix nicks, which works awesome btw. Didn't have to use it yet, but my contractor used it to cover up nail holes on the crown and toe kick base. It sells on amazon for 7$.
The cabinets and island in the kitchen were a little more then 13k plus install of 1,200, counter top not included. Lowes prices are actually outrageous for what you get. Junk for starters.
Good price, looks like you have almost 50 linear feet of cabinets. Also, plywood isn't that heavy, I have built cabinets(the boxes) out of 3/4" Melamine and 3/4" Plywood, plywood is a heck of a lot lighter.
We did a huge kitchen from Lowes bought cabinets and the homeowners could have had custom cabinets with a badass stain for around the price they paid. It turned out nice but the uppers were 2 stacked on top of each other because they had 10 or 12' ceilings but you had all the seems where all the cabinets met. Custom, I could have had 75% less seems.
I love when homeowners do custom cabinets, even if someone else is doing them.
