In this Part 6 video, Chris and Thomas from Tim’s Custom Cabinets install the upper cabinets completing the installation of our new, custom-made cherry kitchen cabinets. And the cabinets look beautiful! But the men did encounter several technical challenges, one of which is shown in this video - locating the studs in the walls. From personal experience using several types of stud finders on our heavily textured walls, the only one that has worked for me is a magnetic stud finder called a StudBuddy. So, after watching them miss the studs several times, I again offered my magnetic stud finder to see it that would help. And it worked great!
Background: Having spent four years of our retirement in a small ranch style house built in 1978, we were ready to remodel the worn-out farm style kitchen. But the timing was bad. We were in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, and most contractors in the area were overbooked and unavailable, even for an estimate. Then one day as we again passed by Tim’s Custom Cabinets, located at a new round-about in a residential area, we stopped in to inquire if they could give us an estimate. A month later, we sat down with Tony, the owner of Tim's Custom Cabinets and signed a contract for a major kitchen remodel. As it turned out, this remodel project took excruciatingly long to complete and was extremely disruptive to our daily life.
The total cost: A lot of clams!
