The local conditions that shape the job, the best time of year to book, and what to sort out before you choose a cabinet maker.
Termite Risk — Timber
Termite activity is very high in most of Capalaba. All timber — cabinetry, joinery, framing, flooring — should be termite-treated or a naturally resistant species. Annual inspections are essential.
What's in a good Cabinet Making quote?
A good quote spells out how the job is priced and what's covered — labour, materials, prep and clean-up — so you're comparing like for like. Check what each cabinet maker's quote covers before you choose.
Worth knowing: getting two or three quotes is the simplest way to land a fair price — and it costs you nothing.
