• Hardware & Accessory Integration: Install high-end cabinet hardware—including concealed soft-close hinges, undermount drawer slides, pull-out organizers, and integrated lighting channels.
• Scribe & Trim Detailing: Cut and install crown molding, light valances, toe kicks, filler strips, and decorative trim to achieve flawless, tight-tolerance wall and ceiling scribes.
• Quality Assurance & Client Care: Inspect finished installations for smooth drawer/door operation and surface integrity, maintaining clean jobsite protocols and protecting installed assets.
• Collaboration & Team Support: Partner with in-house designers, project supervisors, and finish painters to ensure seamless transitions from shop fabrication to final field handoff.
