Kitchen Cabinet Installation

[Ryan Bodenhorn]

I am rehabbing a small 3 bed 1 bath home in Columbus, Ohio. I have ordered pre-assembled white shaker kitchen cabinets for a simple L-shaped kitchen with a total of 9 cabinets and crown molding on the uppers. The quote I have received just for installation is $1,500 ($167) per box. That seems incredibly expensive to me. What is a normal rate for installation of kitchen cabinets? Any recommendations on who I can contact in the Columbus market for a better price?

There is a lot more skill involved in "putting boxes on the wall" than you might think. Unless you don't care what the job looks like.
