Aside from these factors, Ggem says there are a few others expected to impact cabinetry costs this year.

Geopolitical instability, shipping costs, and tariffs might affect supply chains.

Labor shortages are also a growing challenge, Ggem says.

Ggem says this will avoid costly do-overs by appropriately showing the cabinet before its build.

For example, if custom cabinets aren’t in your budget, try semi-custom instead.

Stay flexible to respond to market pricingdo not attempt to be unfair to vendors facing increases.

Most importantly, do not skimp on planning and materials.

Labor is the bulk of the costs, and mistakes are pricey.

Plus, the materials are what show in the end," she adds.

Ggem recommends investing in well-made,classic-style cabinetry, keeping the essence of your design completely intact.
