What the scorecard measures

Every number on this page comes from public Google data on the date shown, not from opinion or payment. Rating is the live Google star average. Review volume is how many customers have rated the business. Confidence weighs the rating by that volume, so a 5.0 from more than a hundred reviews counts for more than a 5.0 from a few. Recency reflects how recently people are still reviewing. No business can pay to change these numbers.

What shapes the price of custom cabinets in Austin in 2026

No firm on this page publishes prices, and no reviewer states a total, so there is no cost table. Price follows the room size, cabinet material, custom versus semi-custom construction, hardware, and how much design time is involved. Ask each shop for an itemized written quote that separates cabinets, countertops and installation.

Who installs, and are they on your team or a subcontractor?
Will I see samples of the stain, paint or door style in my own space?
How do you handle appliance or measurement changes after the order?
