When homeowners and designers search for “Cabinets And Designs Houston,” they’re really looking for more than boxes and doors—they’re seeking a trusted partner to translate vision into a room that works beautifully every day. At Michael Edwards Custom Cabinetry & Closets, we bring Houston residences the kind of craftsmanship you can see and feel: hand-selected lumber, joinery that lasts, and finishes that elevate the architecture of your home. Though our mill and workshop are in San Antonio, we design, build, deliver, and install across the Greater Houston area—from River Oaks and West University to The Heights, Memorial, Tanglewood, Bellaire, Katy, Sugar Land, and beyond.

Why Houston Chooses Bespoke

Houston homes are wonderfully diverse: mid-century bungalows in The Heights, new construction in Memorial, townhomes in the Museum District, and expansive suburban estates. “One-size-fits-all” cabinets rarely fit the way Houstonians live. Custom cabinets solve real, daily challenges—tall ceilings that deserve statement millwork, tricky alcoves that need built-ins, walk-in closets that must maximize every inch, and chef-forward kitchens that require purposeful storage. With Cabinets And Designs Houston services tailored to each space, we ensure your cabinetry adds function, resale value, and long-term durability.

Our Craft: Hand-Milled Wood, Precision Joinery

Every project begins with raw material. We mill our wood in-house for consistent quality and tight tolerances, matching grain and tone across doors, frames, and panels. Dovetail drawers, soft-close hardware, and furniture-grade finishes are standard—not upgrades. Founder Mike Swientek personally oversees every build with an eye for detail, confirming reveals, profiles, and sheen before anything leaves the shop. That means your cabinets arrive in Houston ready for a smooth, white-glove installation.

Kitchens That Cook—and Wow

Your kitchen should work as intelligently as it looks. We design layouts around how you prep, cook, and entertain:

Whether you love rift-sawn white oak with a natural finish, rich walnut with hand-rubbed oil, or a durable catalyzed paint in a designer hue, we finish to your exact spec. For open-concept Houston homes, we’ll echo profiles and stains in adjacent living spaces for continuity.

Spa-Level Baths & Powder Rooms

Humidity, daily use, and tight footprints make bathroom cabinetry a different challenge. We build vanities with moisture-resistant cores, durable finishes, and integrated organization for makeup, grooming tools, and linen storage. Floating vanities create visual space in townhomes; furniture-style legs and inset doors add classic elegance in historic neighborhoods. For powder rooms, specialty woods, fluted details, or a bold lacquer can create a true “wow” moment for guests.

Closets & Dressing Rooms that Fit You

Closet design is where smart storage meets personal style. We create wardrobes with adjustable hanging, velvet-lined jewelry drawers, integrated mirrors, shoe walls, glass-front displays, and island dressers. LED lighting illuminates every shelf; custom dividers keep accessories in order. Whether it’s a compact reach-in in Midtown or a full dressing suite in River Oaks, we tailor the layout to your wardrobe and daily routine.

Built-Ins for Living, Working, and Playing

From media walls and bookshelves to home offices and mudrooms, built-ins add polish and purpose. We match your home’s trim profiles for a truly integrated look, include wire-management for devices, and design doors/drawers that keep visual clutter out of sight. For families, mudroom lockers with ventilated drawers, charging cubbies, and durable finishes stand up to Houston’s rainy days and active schedules.

The Michael Edwards Process

  1. Discovery & Site Measure – We meet on-site in Houston (or virtually) to understand needs, measure precisely, and discuss budget and timelines.

  2. Design & Materials – We develop elevations, 3D visuals, and a materials/finish package that fits your home’s style—modern, transitional, or traditional.

  3. Engineering & Build – Our team mills, assembles, sands, and finishes your cabinetry with tight quality control.

  4. White-Glove Installation – Coordinated with your contractor or as a standalone service. We protect floors, minimize dust, and leave your space spotless.

Finishes & Design Details That Matter

Small decisions make a big impact. We help you choose:

Built for Houston Living

Houston’s climate and pace demand durable cabinetry. We specify finishes that resist humidity and everyday wear, choose hardware engineered for thousands of cycles, and scribe panels to imperfect walls for a built-in look. For families and entertainers, we design storage that keeps surfaces clear—and mornings calm.
