Kitchen cabinets in Holden Beach

Rental-first, like the rest of the south coast

Holden Beach and Oak Island are overwhelmingly rental and second-home. That means the same brief as Topsail: hardware and boxes over delicate finishes, and a kitchen that survives turnover.

Worth the drive or not

An hour each way is a real cost on a small job. For a full kitchen it makes no difference to you — for a single vanity it might. We will say which it is when you call rather than after you have booked.

Holden Beach is 1 hour from our showroom at 2725 Old Wrightsboro Rd, Wilmington. Same crew, same warranty, no travel surcharge.

Finishes we build most

Whatever the town, the color decision is the one people find hardest. White shaker, grey and greige, navy, two-tone and stained wood — each page says what it suits and where it goes wrong.
