Custom Cabinets in Austin, TX
Verde Cabinet Studio designs, fabricates, and installs custom cabinetry for homes and design professionals across Austin. The work runs from a single built-in wall to a full architectural cabinetry package coordinated with your architect, designer, and general contractor.
Building conditions in Austin
Austin's housing stock is unusually mixed. Central neighborhoods hold pier-and-beam bungalows from the 1920s through the 1950s with settled floors and out-of-plumb walls, while infill and rebuild projects nearby are dead-square and detailed to the millimetre. The same drawing set cannot be built the same way in both, so every job is measured on site and the case construction, scribes, and filler strategy are set from those measurements rather than from a catalog.
Older Austin homes also tend to have short ceiling heights, tight galley kitchens, and mechanical chases in inconvenient places. Custom casework is often the only way to reclaim that space — full-height storage that stops cleanly at a soffit, a bank of drawers where a plumbing stack has to stay, or a built-in that turns an awkward stair landing into usable shelving.

Questions from Austin clients
- Do older Austin homes need different cabinet construction?
- Often, yes. Settled floors and bowed walls mean the boxes have to be set on a levelled and scribed base, and face frames or applied ends are used to close variable gaps. This is decided from the site measurements, not assumed from the plan.
- Can you match cabinetry to existing trim in a historic Austin home?
- Yes. Profiles, stile and rail widths, and reveals can be drawn to match the existing millwork so a new built-in reads as original rather than added.
- Do you work directly with designers and builders in Austin?
- Yes. Most of the studio's work comes through interior designers, architects, remodelers, and custom builders. We can work from your drawings, or produce shop drawings in Cabinet Vision for your approval before anything is cut.
- What is not included in a Austin cabinetry package?
- Countertops, plumbing, appliances, electrical, and tile are handled by your own trades. We coordinate dimensions and cutouts with them, but we do not supply or install them.
- How do I get a project reviewed?
- Send plans, elevations, or photographs of the existing conditions through the project review form. You'll get constructability notes back and a clear statement of what is needed before the scope can be priced.
More detail on process and scope is on the FAQ and process pages.
