Every project is unique, and your investment depends on your goals. At Magnolia Grove Design & Cabinetry, we offer a range of products to fit any budget and the expertise to deliver high-end looks at affordable prices. Our designers work with you to create a custom plan that aligns with your vision and budget.

Project timelines vary based on size and product selections. Smaller updates, such as new countertops, vanities, or light fixtures, can often be completed in about a week. Full kitchen remodels typically take several weeks after final selections, as materials like cabinets must be ordered and delivered. Once everything arrives, installation usually takes 1 to 3 weeks. Throughout the process, we keep you informed so you know what to expect at each stage.

Magnolia Grove Design & Cabinetry can help with projects of all sizes. Our designers love to help homeowners plan “microprojects” that have a large impact in how they enjoy their homes.

Timeless design focuses on simplicity, balance, and versatility. Shaker-style cabinetry is a perfect example, as its clean lines and subtle elegance have kept it in style for generations. Neutral finishes like soft whites, warm wood tones, and muted grays provide a flexible foundation that can adapt as trends change. Rather than chasing what’s popular now, timeless design aims to create a space that feels well-balanced, functional, and built to last.

Granite and manmade quartz are two of the most durable countertop materials available; they resist scratching, staining, and heat, making them ideal for everyday use. Wood surfaces, while softer, are also incredibly long-lasting when properly cared for and can add warmth and character to a space. Ultimately, the most durable choice depends on how you live and use your space, and we're here to help guide you to the best fit for your needs.

MDF (medium-density fiberboard) and solid wood both have their place in painted cabinetry. MDF offers a smooth, consistent surface that takes paint beautifully and resists cracking or movement over time, especially in center panels. It's also more budget-friendly. Solid wood, on the other hand, brings natural character and strength, but it can expand and contract with humidity, which may lead to visible cracks in painted finishes over time. 

In many high-quality painted cabinets, you'll often see a combination: MDF for door panels and solid wood for frames—blending performance, durability, and aesthetic appeal. 

These materials each offer unique benefits in terms of look, durability, and maintenance: 

• Granite is a natural stone known for its durability, heat resistance, and wide variety of colors and patterns. It typically falls in the mid-range for cost and requires periodic sealing. 

• Quartz is an engineered material made from natural quartz and resins. It's non-porous, easy to maintain, and consistent in appearance. Quartz often costs slightly more than granite, depending on the brand and style. 

• Quartzite is a natural stone that offers the elegance of marble with greater durability. It's one of the most durable options but often comes at a higher price point due to the labor-intensive fabrication process and more limited availability. 

We’re happy to help you weigh the pros, cons, and price points to find the best fit for your home and budget.
