Common questions
What is the 1-3 rule for cabinets?
The 1-3 rule is a practical guideline for cabinet layout. It suggests about 1 inch of clearance between upper and lower cabinets, and 3 inches between the sink and stove. This ensures comfortable movement and easy access while you're working in your Urban Honolulu kitchen. It helps create an efficient and functional workspace.
Where's the cheapest place to buy cabinets?
To find affordable cupboards, explore various sources. Large home improvement stores offer many options, while some direct suppliers might provide better pricing. Stock or semi-custom cabinets can also be more budget-friendly. The 'cheapest' choice often depends on materials and customization. We help you find great value for your Hawaii home.
What colors make a kitchen look expensive?
Deep, rich colors like navy, charcoal, or deep green can create a luxurious feel. Classic white or off-white cabinets paired with contrasting countertops also lend an upscale appearance. Metallic accents, such as brushed brass or matte black hardware, add a touch of elegance. Consider colors that complement your Urban Honolulu home.
Which is better, quartz or granite?
Quartz is an engineered material, known for its consistency and resistance to stains and scratches, ideal for humid climates. Granite is a natural stone with unique patterns and durability, but it may require sealing. Both are excellent choices for Hawaii kitchens. Quartz is lower maintenance, while granite offers natural beauty. Your preference will guide the best choice.
What is the downside of granite countertops?
Granite is porous and can absorb liquids if not sealed properly, potentially leading to stains. It requires periodic resealing to maintain its protection. While very durable, it can chip or crack if subjected to strong impacts. We ensure your granite is installed correctly in your Urban Honolulu kitchen.
