Connolly Custom Cabinets — Q&A
Q: We already have measurements and a drawing package. Can you give us a new
quote based on those drawings?
A: Absolutely! We can provide a quick, no-hassle estimate based on your existing
drawings. Once you’ve reviewed and approved the initial quote, we’ll move forward with
detailed production drawings and 3D renderings to confirm every detail before work begins.
Q: Home Depot and other big box stores usually require full payment up front, which can be
risky if we’re not happy with the final product. Do we have to pay 100% in advance with
Connolly Custom?
A: Not at all. At Connolly Custom, we do things differently to protect your investment and give
you peace of mind.
Here’s how our process works:
• 50% Deposit: After you approve your quote, we ask for a 50% down payment to
purchase your project materials and lock in your delivery or installation window. (And
yes, we install our own products!)
• Sales Tax Savings: Because our shop is located outside city limits, your project is billed
at a lower tax rate of about 3.7%, compared to 8.05% within the city. That difference
can add up to hundreds or thousands of dollars in savings, depending on your project
size.
• Transparent Invoicing: You’ll receive a detailed receipt showing your total estimate,
deposit, and applicable tax rate. If you make changes along the way—adding or
removing cabinets or features—your final invoice will simply reflect those updates.
• Final Payment: Most projects don’t end up being an exact 50/50 split, but you’ll always
know where every dollar goes before the final invoice is due.
With Connolly Custom, you’ll always work directly with the same people who know your project
inside and out—no call centers, no middlemen, no surprises. Whether you want a fully hands-
on design/build experience or a simple build-to-spec project from your own drawings, we’re
here to make it easy.
Q: Will I be the envy of my neighborhood when you’re done?
A: Without a doubt—for years to come!
