"We needed to have a cabinet space modified to fit a double-oven and Steve from imperial was just the best experience. I was able to drive to their shop, explain the project, give them the oven specs and have them customize the cabinet according to spec. When they showed up to do the work, labor even brought the oven specs with him to ensure it would work. Wonderful experience from A-Z!"

I work with customers to get an understanding of how they envision their kitchen space, give suggestions on improving functionality if warranted, and provide an estimate. Should you decide to progress with your project, I reface the existing cabinets with 1/4" hardwood to the front of your existing cabinets and install brand new doors and drawer fronts to give your kitchen an entirely new look. I can provide you with a custom stain or paint color of your choice, as well as, color match something existing in your home. Because every home is unique, pricing is based on your kitchen design. I am happy to provide an estimate for interested customers. Please contact me through email at: lonnschmitz@hotmail.com or call me at: 612.760.1440

"Haley did a wonderful job replacing the Powder Room toilet wax ring, interior flush valve/assembly & then caulked at the floor. She also replaced the flush valve for another toilet, and verified a third toilet didn't have any issues. She changed out 3 electrical switches to dimmer switches. And she also changed out the ice maker in the bottom freezer. She just stopped back out today to fix it as it was making too much ice. I purchased all items in advance so she could just focus on the installation scope. She's a wonderful, lovely person who does her job well, has a nice demeanor and is safe in your home. I highly recommend her and will be calling her in the future."

Built in furniture constructs FAQs
For a built-in bookshelf, always choose high-quality furniture-grade wood. Softer woods, like pine, and particle boards like MDF can sag under the weight of heavy books. Ideally, your shelves should hold 20 to 40 pounds per foot, so opt for scratch-resistant hardwood plywood or solid wood. Popular options include mahogany, cherry, koa, maple, oak, walnut, birch, and cedar.
Your built-in bookshelves should seamlessly blend into your space. Often, this means floor-to-ceiling units ending at a natural cutoff point like a door. You might also consider creating a custom corner unit or suspended units hung at eye level. If you're installing a prefabricated unit, you'll find sizes ranging from 24 to 48 inches wide, 10 to 12 inches deep, and 5 to 6 feet tall.
The installation time for built-in bookshelves depends on the complexity of the design, the size of the shelves, and the level of customization. A contractor can install a simple, prefabricated unit in a few hours, while an elaborate, custom unit could take up to a week. Installing add-ons like lighting could also extend the installation process.
