Custom Cabinets, Trim and Remodeling in Harris County

Harris County is home base for Ace Kustoms. Our shop sits in the 77009 zip code just north of downtown Houston, so most Harris County jobs are a short drive for the crew that builds your cabinets. That matters when a site visit, a final fitting or a punch-list item needs attention. We design, build and install custom cabinets, trim and built-ins from inside the Loop out to Cypress, Spring, Humble, Baytown and the Bay Area.

The work here is as varied as the housing. In older neighborhoods like the Heights, Bellaire and the Memorial Villages, we often replace worn kitchens in homes built between the 1920s and 1970s, where walls are rarely square and every cabinet run gets scribed to fit. In the master-planned suburbs north and west of town, the typical request is replacing builder-grade boxes with solid wood, adding a pantry wall or finishing a game room with a media built-in.

Every Harris County project follows the same process. We start with an in-home consultation and measure, then bring real door styles, wood species and finish samples to your house so you can judge them in your own light. Everything is built in our Houston shop from hardwoods and furniture-grade plywood, and the same crew comes back to install it. No subcontracted install crews, no particleboard boxes, and a final walkthrough with you before we call the job done.

Homes in Harris County

Harris County housing spans more than a century. Inside the Loop you find 1920s bungalows, prewar cottages and the postwar ranch homes of the 1950s through 1970s, many on pier-and-beam or early slab foundations that have moved over the decades. Ceilings are often 8 feet and walls out of plumb, so cabinets need scribe strips and filler panels planned from the start. Outside the Beltway, most homes date from the 1980s onward and sit on slab in large subdivisions. Those houses tend to have taller ceilings and open plans but builder-grade cabinets, thin trim and wire closet shelving, which makes them strong candidates for full-height uppers, crown upgrades and closet systems.

Climate and materials

Houston humidity is the main thing we design around. Solid wood moves with the seasons, so we use furniture-grade plywood for cabinet boxes and shelves, and frame-and-panel doors that let panels float. Sink bases get extra finish protection, and in neighborhoods along bayous or in flood-prone zones we can raise toe kicks or use moisture-resistant materials on the lowest components. Keeping the house conditioned during installation helps everything settle in properly.
