In New York, bathroom cabinets play a central role in both the decorative appeal and the efficient operation of your daily routine. Colored or wood grain, light wood or dark wood, face frame or faceless, and glass, mirror, or solid doors are just a few of the basic choices you'll need to make for your new bathroom cabinets. New Yorkers with larger bathroom spaces can certainly benefit from the look and performance of well-designed cabinetry, but when dealing with small spaces (which there are plenty of in New York!), bathroom cabinets are likely to play an even more important role in how the room feels, functions, and appears. And remember: To get the most from bathrooms big and small, you don't just need the right cabinets, you need the right cabinet installers, too!
Cabinet Installation: Custom or Stock
There are essentially two types of cabinets and, accordingly, two types of cabinet installation. You can hire a custom cabinet maker to build a cabinet from scratch, or you can buy a stock cabinet and install the unit upon the delivery. The difference is worlds apart, in both quality and price.
Custom cabinets are by far the better option for those who can afford them. Not only will these pieces fit and perform to your exact specifications, they are also likely to last longer and look better over their lifetimes due to the high quality craftsmanship that goes into their construction. For custom bathroom cabinets, New Yorkers absolutely must hire an expert; while there are plenty of folks in the Empire State who might offer cabinet installation, if you're going to pay top dollar for a custom job, getting your money's worth will only come from hiring a carpenter who focuses on cabinet making.
The difference between buying custom cabinets and stock cabinets is comparable to having a suit made to your measurements versus buying one off a rack: stock cabinets are meant to fit your budget more than they are the space they'll occupy! However, since most styles of stock cabinetry are available in different dimensions and with a few different optional features, they can be "customized' to some degree. When shopping for stock bathroom cabinets, New Yorkers should be aware that your local home improvement store is not always the best way to go. They may have great prices on cabinets, but they're also known for over-charging for installation. Get an estimate from an independent contractor before you make a final decision, as their prices are often competitive and they are known for adding a personal touch to their work.
Cabinet Prices
Between the cost of the cabinets, installation, and the general size and complexity of the project, we've seen New York bathroom cabinets cost as little as $500 and as much as $5,000. Full kitchen cabinetry can run $25,000 or more! With this wide range, you can also expect to solicit a wide range of estimates from various contractors. Along with checking customer reference, be sure to ask why these estimates differ so greatly. You want to get the best deal possible, but you shouldn't have to sacrifice the quality of the cabinets or their installation.
Other Storage Ideas
The densest city in the U.S., New York puts an unprecedented premium on space. Whether it's parking in Manhattan, square footage of an apartment in Queens, or residential lawns in surrounding areas, many homeowners must be judicious, efficient, and clever when devising their home storage. The smallest of bathrooms may feel like a lost cause. Indeed, you may need to move some of your bathroom storage out of your bathroom. It may not need to go far, however. Even if your bathroom can't accommodate a built-in cabinet, the walls immediately outside your bathroom may. Packing your shower with a shower caddy, hanging hardware directly from your walls, and other auxiliary solutions may be less than ideal, but can be a necessary to adequately supplement your bathroom storage cabinets in New York.
Other Ways to Save Space in Small Bathrooms
- Install a space saving cabinet directly over your toilet. The area above the toilet is the most unused space in the average bathroom.
- Get rid of your bathtub, and install a shower stall or angled shower stall. If you're not big on taking baths or have an alternate bathroom with a better tub, anyway, this move alone can take care of your bathroom space issues.
- Wall-hung sinks are another great idea. Even if you don't use the space beneath your sink for anything, this open space will make the room feel roomier and allow you to install a fuller cabinetry without causing the room to become claustrophobic.
