All our cabinets are constructed from solid and engineered wood and feature soft-close metal glides and hinges, reducing noise and preventing items from shifting during closure. Before your cabinets are delivered, we assemble them on-site at our facility in Parkville, Maryland.

No, our cabinets are ready to assemble, meaning they come in predetermined sizes. Although we don’t custom build cabinets, we carry a diverse range of products in several styles and colors to suit your specifications. Ready-to-assemble (RTA) cabinets generally cover most user’s requirements.

Elegant Kitchen & Design specializes in natural and engineered stone countertops, which includes granite, quartz, and quartzite. We do not carry countertop materials like butcher block or laminate.

As with our cabinets, we stock several countertop styles and colors, ensuring there’s something for everyone’s tastes. Visit our Quartz, Granite, and Quartzite pages to view client-favorite choices from MSI and Cambria.

The cost of new cabinets and countertops largely depends on the size and scope of your project as well as the materials you select.
