🚨 I need everyone to stop what they are doing right now and join me in basking in the glory of how PERFECT this installation is 🚨

One thing that reeeeeaaaaalllllyyyyy grinds my gears is when installers can’t be bothered to dial in the door & drawer front adjustments to create a beautiful visual of straight and clean lines….

This one deserves a hard post for SURE…

A few years ago these fine folks had a beautiful custom home built on Mercer Island. The builder leaned on using Sektion cabinets with custom fronts…. You know very well I think that’s a great idea…

HOWEVER! - unfortunately they seriously lacked experience in design using ikea, as well as how to order the correct sizing in custom fronts…

To make things worse, they brought in subs to install who had no experience in using IKEA… After being completely exhausted from fighting with the builder, they conceded to hire a separate contractor to fix & finish this kitchen…. Wouldn’t you know it…… THAT contractor also couldn’t get the job done…

Feeling defeated, the clients came back to Semihandmade to ask for some advice and THANK GOD the advice given to them was “You should call Wes”

They did, and here we are, with a beautiful and complete kitchen, the way it was meant to look all along… I’ll spare you the very long list of all the repairs, replacements, adjustments, etc that we had to make to get this up to par, but let me tell you what, it was a JOURNEY…

I’m REALLY proud of my work here and I hope they love their new kitchen now that I have worked my magic 🙂‍↔️
