Serving Georgetown, Scott County
Custom Cabinets in Georgetown, KY
Lexington Custom Cabinets builds custom cabinetry for homeowners in Georgetown and Scott County who want more than a standard builder layout. We plan around the room, the household, and the storage problems that need to be solved, then build, finish, and install the project through our own shop.
Georgetown combines a protected older core with one of the more active new-home markets in the Lexington region. Old Town contains a range of historic residential architecture, while current listings show continuing subdivision construction, including open-layout ranch and two-story plans with islands, walk-in closets, and attached garages. Those are fundamentally different cabinet jobs and should not receive the same recommendation.
In the older core, custom work earns its keep by fitting nonstandard rooms, respecting original trim, and creating storage where the house was never planned for modern appliances or wardrobes. In newer Georgetown homes, the footprint is usually workable already, so the value shifts toward better drawer construction, pantry interiors, mudroom storage, closet systems, larger islands, and selective refacing or hardware upgrades instead of unnecessary tear-outs.

Cabinetry That Makes Better Use of Georgetown Homes
Most Georgetown kitchens we are asked about are only a few years old and already feel disorganised. The bones are fine. What is missing is inside the doors, where the builder allowance stopped.
An existing island can usually gain a deep pan drawer stack, a trash pull-out, and a proper 15-inch seating overhang, which is the difference between people sitting at it and people leaning on it. In the older downtown houses the work is different: scribing a run to a wall that is out over its length, and keeping original trim rather than covering it.
Refacing, Refinishing and Full Replacement
In a house under fifteen years old, replacement is often the wrong call. Plywood boxes that are structurally fine with tired doors are a refacing job, and upgraded soft-close hinges and full-extension glides fix the part that actually annoys you every day.
Wood Species, Door Styles and Finish Combinations
Painted maple in a full-overlay shaker holds a catalyzed finish hard enough for a family kitchen and reads current without dating quickly. Rift-sawn white oak on the island keeps the grain quiet across a large face where plain-sawn would look busy. In the older core, inset painted poplar is the correct direction because it sits properly against period trim.
Custom Bathroom Vanities in Georgetown, KY
Vanity Setups We Build Most Often Here
Newer Georgetown plans give the primary suite a double vanity with length to spare and secondary baths a standard single. The builder version is usually one box with two doors and no drawers. Downtown bathrooms are the opposite: small, often carved out of another room, and plumbed wherever it was reachable.
Moisture-Resistant Materials and Finishes
A custom vanity in painted maple or rift white oak with a quartz top is the most durable pairing in a newer home. Drawer banks between the sinks and a linen tower use the same footprint far better than two doors and a void.
Pantry, Mudroom and Garage Cabinetry for Georgetown Families
Walk-In Pantry Cabinets
Nearly every new Georgetown plan includes a walk-in pantry, and nearly every one ships with wire shelving. Fitted pantry cabinetry with roll-out trays and door racks roughly doubles what the same room holds.
Mudroom Built-Ins and Lockers
In many Georgetown layouts, the short run between garage and kitchen is where backpacks, shoes, mail, and coats collect. Built-in drop-zone cabinetry can organize that traffic before it reaches the island without requiring a separate mudroom addition.
Garage Cabinets and Storage
Two and three-car garages are standard here and mostly storing bins on the floor. Garage cabinetry with tall utility cabinets and a load-rated workbench recovers the floor.
Custom Closet Systems
Large primary closets in newer Georgetown homes can still waste substantial wall height when they are delivered with little more than a shelf and hanging rod. A planned system separates long hang, double hang, drawers, shoes, and less-used upper storage.
Home Office, Media Wall and Basement Cabinetry in Georgetown
Home Office Built-Ins
Many Georgetown plans include a flex room sold as an office and furnished as a spare bedroom. Built-in desks with integrated file storage make it a room that works.
Entertainment Center and Media Wall Built-Ins
Open great rooms with tall ceilings leave a large blank wall around the television. Media wall built-ins with ventilated component bays fill it properly.
Basement Cabinetry and Built-Ins
Walkout basements are common in the newer Georgetown subdivisions. Basement cabinetry gets built on a moisture-isolated base, which matters below grade.
Refacing and Refinishing Georgetown Cabinets
Restoration in Georgetown splits along the same line as everything else. In the newer subdivisions it means correcting a spec: tired doors on sound boxes, a finish worn at the sink, cheap glides, or cabinets that stopped matching after a countertop swap. In the older core it means genuine repair, rehanging dropped doors and rebuilding stripped screw bosses in face frames that have been in service a long time.
Working With Lexington Custom Cabinets in Georgetown
Design
We begin with the storage and workflow problems in the room, verify the dimensions on site, and build the plan around both.
Materials & Samples
You see real door, species, finish, and hardware samples in your own light.
Field Verification
Before fabrication we confirm dimensions, appliances, utilities, walls, floors, and trim.
Installation & QA
Subdivision installs are straightforward: attached garage access, wide doorways, level floors. Downtown Georgetown is the opposite, with street frontage, tight access, and original floors that get covered before anything comes through the door. We confirm which situation we are in at field verification.
