Leave adjustment tools on the first visit
Note on the invoice: 'All doors and drawers adjusted and aligned at installation. Call within 30 days for any alignment issues.' Cabinets settle slightly after installation — a quick return visit within 30 days prevents a future warranty dispute.
Photograph the completed kitchen from multiple angles
Completed kitchen photos are among the most powerful portfolio assets in this trade. Take them before the countertop crew arrives and always ask for permission to use them in marketing.
Invoice for hardware installation separately if the client changed the selection
If the client changed hardware from a standard knob to a pull (requiring a different hole pattern or drilling), that's a change order. Note it on the invoice explicitly.
For contractor-supplied cabinets: 50% deposit before ordering cabinets, 40% on delivery and start of installation, 10% at completion and punch-list. For labor-only installs (client-supplied cabinets): 50% before start, balance on completion. Cabinet orders cannot be cancelled once placed — never proceed without a deposit.
Note cabinet manufacturer, series, and door style. Record the number of base units, wall units, and specialty pieces. List hardware brand and finish. Note any site conditions (shimming required, scribed filler, modified panels) and photograph the completed installation before countertop delivery.
1 year on labor for installation defects (doors not closing, drawers off track, cabinets out of level). Cabinet manufacturers typically offer their own warranty on the boxes, drawers, and hardware. Refer manufacturer defects (box delamination, hinge failure) directly to the manufacturer warranty process.
If you coordinate the countertop template and installation (scheduling the countertop fabricator, overseeing the template), bill it as a 'project coordination' line. It's legitimate management time. If you're solely installing countertops yourself, bill per linear foot with a specified material type.
