Kitchen Cabinets in Unionville, CT
Unionville is the mill village of Farmington, built where the river drops enough to turn wheels. It made nuts and bolts, screws and paper, and the housing along the streets off Route 4 went up for the people who worked in those shops.
Kitchen cabinets Unionville CT homeowners buy are for that village stock — late nineteenth and early twentieth century two-family and single houses on small lots — plus a good deal of post-war and later building on the slopes above the village.
The older houses here were heated by steam or hot water from the start, and a great many still are. The cast-iron radiators are original, they work, and they sit exactly where the Victorians put them: under the windows.
In a kitchen that is a direct conflict, because the window is also where anybody sensible wants the sink. You can box a radiator in and lose most of its output, move it and re-pipe, or plan the sink elsewhere and accept the radiator as a fixed object. All three are legitimate; what is not legitimate is drawing the kitchen as though the radiator were not there, which is how these jobs go wrong.

Kitchen Cabinets Unionville CT
Custom and semi-custom cabinetry from Fabuwood, Mouser, Legacy Crafted, Integrity and WoodLand. We record every radiator, pipe and valve position at the measure and design around them, because in a steam-heated village house they are structure as far as the kitchen is concerned.
Bathroom Vanities in Unionville
Bathroom vanities Unionville CT houses need frequently have the same problem in miniature, with a pipe run crossing exactly where the cabinet back wants to sit. We scribe and notch the bathroom cabinets to fit rather than forcing them.
Countertops in Unionville
Countertops Unionville CT kitchens take often stop short of a wall because of a radiator or a pipe boxing, and a well-made return end there looks intentional rather than compromised.

Unionville Questions
Do you deliver and install in Unionville?
Yes. We supply kitchen cabinets Unionville CT and install with our own team, backed by a 5-year limited warranty. Unionville is about 30 minutes from the showroom, comfortably inside our service area.
Which showroom should I visit?
Waterbury is nearer, roughly half an hour on I-84 and Route 4. Danbury holds the same manufacturers on display.
Can the radiator be moved out of the way?
Usually yes, if the pipework is accessible, and it is often the cleanest answer. Low-profile panel units on the same circuit are another route. Boxing a radiator into a cabinet is the one option we generally advise against, because you lose the heat and gain a hot cupboard.
Can you work with my contractor?
Yes. A large share of our work comes through contractors, remodelers and designers, and we are used to supplying inside a scope someone else is running.
