Abrahamson Services provides a wide range of services to the 4 county Milwaukee area. Anything from windows, doors, roofs, gutters/toppers/cleaning, to roof raking, ice removal and interior work
"Ken was fantastic from start to finish. I hired him to remove an old basketball hoop, pour new cement, and install a new one. The job turned out to be much tougher than expected—the old cement was nearly impossible to break up and the clay ground was hard to dig deeper for the required dept —but Ken handled it like a pro, using a jackhammer and digging through hard clay soil without complaint. Despite the extra work and materials needed, he stuck to his original price even when I asked to pay him more, which speaks volumes about his integrity. He returned a few days later to assemble the hoop, and the final result was perfect—every measurement was spot-on. Ken went above and beyond, and I wouldn’t hesitate to hire him again. Highly recommended!"

"I had used Kitchen Savers before to do countertops and sink and was very happy with them, so I did not really consider anyone else for my current remodel at a new place. Savers Kitchen did a much more extensive remodel this time. Kevin spent much time understanding what I wanted and giving suggestions. He was very knowledgeable, patient, and easy to work with. In fact, the cabinet door sample he had with him was exactly what I chose. This remodel included resurfacing cabinets, raising a cabinet, building a new cabinet, quartz countertops, sink and faucet, installing stove hood, backsplash, and 2 large pantry doors. Dave P. did measuring and everything was exactly right. Dave B. did most of the work and did an excellent job. The cabinets are beautiful and I was very impressed with the work he did on the backsplash. He knew how to do everything. The job took a little over 2 weeks. I was out of a sink for 1 day only. They discovered a crack in the new sink, which they told me and got a new one. They had to wait to install pantry doors and a little finish work until I had the kitchen floor installed, which was done by someone else. They promptly came back and finished up. Savers Kitchen was always responsive and have great people to work with. Thank you Savers Kitchen, I love my new kitchen."

Most standard cabinet installations require one to three days when using prefabricated units. Custom cabinet projects extend to one or two weeks due to the precise measurements, fabrication, and finishing required.
Factors affecting the timeline include cabinet complexity, bathroom accessibility, and whether plumbing modifications are needed. Projects requiring significant plumbing changes or working in occupied homes may take longer to complete due to additional coordination requirements.
For bathroom environments, moisture resistance is the primary durability factor. Plywood offers excellent performance due to its layered construction that resists warping and moisture damage. Properly sealed solid wood provides natural beauty with good longevity when maintained correctly.
MDF can work well when thoroughly sealed, but often doesn't last as long in high-humidity environments. The ideal material choice depends on your specific bathroom conditions, maintenance habits, and budget constraints.
While kitchen cabinets can be repurposed for bathrooms, they often require modifications. Standard kitchen cabinets are deeper (24 inches versus 21 inches for bathroom vanities) and taller than bathroom cabinets, potentially creating awkward proportions in smaller bathrooms.
Additionally, kitchen cabinets may need enhanced moisture protection for bathroom environments. With appropriate adjustments and proper sealing, kitchen cabinets can provide a cost-effective alternative for certain bathroom layouts.
Quality bathroom cabinets last between 10 and 20 years, depending on construction quality and maintenance. Warning signs that replacement might be necessary include warped or swollen cabinet components, persistent mold issues, or deteriorating door and drawer functionality.
Cabinets in well-ventilated bathrooms with proper moisture control enjoy longer lifespans. Regular maintenance and prompt attention to minor damage can significantly extend cabinet life.
Basic cabinet replacements that maintain the existing plumbing configuration rarely require permits. However, projects involving plumbing relocations, electrical modifications, or structural changes necessitate proper permitting.
Permit fees and requirements vary significantly between municipalities, so it's advisable to consult your local building department before beginning work. Working with licensed professionals can simplify the permitting process, as they're familiar with local code requirements and application procedures.
