Can I ask when do you guys start engaging the contractor for kitchen cabinet? Do you guys ask them to come to perform onsite measurement only after you get the keys for your house?

Yes I understand. I am also engaging different contractors now on the pricing, right now they can only give me an indicative quotation.

Maybe I will shortlist into 2-3 contractors and ask them to perform onsite measurement and compare their quotation after that.

Custom made cabinets will always be more expensive.

Price is quite reasonable. However quality is unknown.

I still rely a lot on reviews when choosing my contractors, mostly from our fellow forumers from LYN.

First time hearing this, the ones I hear is usually marble, solid surface, granite, quartz, solid wood etc etc.

unity bespoke intech these are frequently mentioned in this forum.

It really depends how big is your kitchen, what material you want to use, do you want top cabinet too (full height?). Too many factors affecting the pricing. For mine which is about 11ft with 4G glass door, melamine. It is around 10k.
