Slab Cabinets: Are They a Good Cabinetry Option for Resale Value?

Did you know there are cabinetry options selected specifically with resale value in mind? Slab cabinets are a particular cabinetry style for slab homes that can help significantly increase the value of a home and shorten the time on the market.

Want to find out if slab cabinets are right for you? Read on to learn more about how this type of style works and what it can do for your kitchen. It’s important to note that Nelson Cabinetry doesn’t offer slab cabinets, but we do offer alternatives that are great options. We’ll review those below, too.

What are Slab Cabinets?

A slab cabinet is a flat panel that has no ornamentation or beveling. Most slab cabinet doors still use a form of contoured design, in which frames and panels are constructed so that the cabinet faces are dimensional rather than flat. However, slab cabinets have become increasingly popular in recent years because of their clean, simple lines.

Slab cabinets are usually made from one piece of wood, and the door is attached to the cabinet frame with hinges. The lack of ornate details means that slab cabinets are very easy to clean and maintain. They also have a modern look that can be very appealing in contemporary homes.

If you’re considering slab cabinets for your kitchen or bathroom, be sure to consult with a professional to ensure that they will be a good fit for your space. Slab cabinets can be a great way to update the look of your home without breaking the bank.

There are a few things to keep in mind when choosing slab cabinets. First, they come in a variety of colors and finishes, so you’ll want to choose the right one for your kitchen. Second, they’re often made from a variety of materials, including wood, laminate, and metal. You’ll want to choose the material that best suits your kitchen’s style. Finally, you’ll want to make sure that the cabinets you choose are the right size for your kitchen.

With so many home improvement options, research has shown that slab cabinets have the potential to increase the value of a home in the future and are less likely to stay long on the market. With this in mind, future buyers are more willing to pay more and make offers quicker on properties with slab cabinets.

Kitchen Layouts

Slab cabinets attract more buyers than most standard cabinets in a few ways. The main benefit of having slab cabinets is that with them, homes have higher value and homeowners can sell their homes earlier than they would with old or original home cabinets.

A relatively low cost if going with the RTA option, flexibility with design, and ease of installation make slab cabinets an easier and more affordable option for new homeowners. Keep in mind these types of savings usually don’t work with custom cabinetry.

Let’s break down the details of how exactly everything works.

Finding an RTA company online

There are many different RTA companies online, and choosing the best one can be a tough decision. However, there are a few things you can keep in mind that will help you make the right choice.

First of all, it’s important to find an RTA company that has a good reputation. You can read online reviews to get an idea of what other people think of the company. It’s also a good idea to check out the company’s website and see what kind of information they provide.

Another thing to keep in mind is the quality of the cabinets. Make sure to read the descriptions carefully and look at the pictures to get an idea of the quality. You should also compare the prices of the different companies to make sure you’re getting a good deal.

Finally, it’s always a good idea to contact the company directly and ask any questions you have. This will help you get a feel for the customer service and make sure you’re comfortable with the company.

Are Slab cabinets a good idea?

Slab Cabinets offer many exceptions to standard new cabinets that make them potentially more valuable to new homeowners when looking to buy a home. Let’s take a look at the pros and cons to help decide if slab cabinets are the right choice for you.

Why You Might Want Slab Cabinets?

If you’re a new homeowner who can’t afford or qualify for a new build custom home, you may still be able to buy a house with new or updated cabinets. Remember, you don’t have to spend crazy amounts of money on a full home remodel, you can remodel the kitchen and this will greatly increase your home value. You also don’t need to do the full kitchen remodel, just replacing the kitchen cabinets will make the kitchen feel newer and give the home better value.

The Drawbacks Of Slab Cabinets

The opportunity to increase the value of your house when you would otherwise be unable to may sound like an irresistible bargain – but slab cabinets are not without their drawbacks.

First, slab cabinets are very rarely cheap. Typically, slab cabinets will cost more than standard cabinetry.

After the initial shock of cost, you may experience problems with the cabinetry company inventory levels. Sometimes not all sizes you need are in stock if going with a smaller RTA company.

Besides the cost and inventory availability, you also need to consider the risk of the style not working for everyone. Slab cabinets may be in style now, but styles and preferences change with time.
