Get Chattanooga’s Preferred Cabinet Maker for Your Dream Kitchen

Your kitchen cabinets are one of the most essential parts of your kitchen’s look and functionality. Choosing to have custom cabinets installed allows you to create a beautiful, personalized kitchen you’ll love to spend time in.

The Olive Branch Difference: Truly Custom Kitchen Cabinets

Unfortunately, when many companies say they do custom cabinets, they actually mean they buy cabinets, assemble them, and customize the installation. While this typically brings about a fair finished product, at Olive Branch, we are passionate about going a step beyond the status quo when it comes to woodworking.

That’s why we love providing Chattanooga homeowners with kitchen cabinets that our team crafts specifically to match their homes' style, functionality, and feel.

What Our Clients Say About Us

“Leslie is great to work with. He had great ideas for my remodel and did excellent work! He added on to our existing cabinets and then painted all of the new and existing cabinets. They are beautiful and look and feel as if they have a factory finish. We love our newly renovated space. In addition to our kitchen, we designed and installed a custom corner cabinet for our living area. It is amazing to have a kitchen that is specifically designed to fit our needs. We highly recommend Leslie and Olive Branch!” - Becky D.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Floor-to-ceiling cabinets are a popular option in modern kitchens, offering maximized storage space, a seamless, streamlined look, and enhanced property value. They help utilize every inch of vertical space, which is especially useful in smaller kitchens.

    However, they come with some challenges, such as accessibility issues, higher costs, and the need for complex installation.

    At Olive Branch Woodworking, we specialize in custom cabinetry solutions to help you balance these pros and cons.

    Learn more about the benefits and challenges of floor-to-ceiling cabinets.

  • Choosing between pre-made and custom-built kitchen cabinets depends on cost, time, and quality.

    Pre-made cabinets are more affordable upfront and quicker to install but may not offer the same level of durability or personalization as custom cabinets.

    While more expensive and time-intensive, custom-built cabinets provide tailored design, higher-quality materials, and long-term value that can boost your home’s resale appeal. Custom cabinets are the way to go if you prioritize craftsmanship and longevity.

    Explore more about choosing between custom and pre-made cabinets.

  • To find a trustworthy carpenter, start by evaluating their experience and area of expertise.

    Look at their portfolio to gauge craftsmanship, read reviews or testimonials, and request references from past clients.

    Ensure the carpenter is licensed and insured for your protection, and pay attention to how well they communicate throughout the planning process.

    A reliable woodworker will also provide a detailed estimate outlining costs, timelines, and materials.
