from vision to installation

Every project is thoughtfully planned, carefully crafted, and built entirely in our Alpharetta workshop. Here's what you can expect when you partner with Rowan & Grain.

A white two-story suburban house with black shutters, a black front door, and flower pots on the porch. There are steps leading to the entrance and a woman is watering plants on the porch. The house has a large gabled roof and is surrounded by green trees and a well-maintained lawn.

01 | Discovery

every great project starts with a conversation.

We'll get to know your home, your goals, your style, and how you use your space. Whether you're building a custom home or remodeling a single room, this is where ideas begin to take shape.

02 | design

Designed around your home.

Once we understand your vision, we'll create a custom design tailored specifically to your space.

Together we'll review layouts, storage solutions, finishes, hardware, and every detail before moving into production.

03 | material selection

quality starts long before construction.

Every project begins with premium materials selected for lasting beauty and performance.

For painted cabinetry, we use paint-grade maple hardwood and premium maple plywood for a smooth, durable finish. For stained projects, we offer carefully selected hardwoods including white oak, walnut, cherry, red oak, and more.

04 | handcrafted in our shop

built from scratch.

This is where the transformation happens.

Every cabinet is handcrafted in our Alpharetta workshop using professional equipment, proven joinery, and meticulous attention to detail. Nothing is mass produced. Nothing is ready-to-assemble. Only true custom cabinetry built specifically for your home.

05 | finishing

the details matter.

Whether painted or stained, every surface is carefully prepared and professionally finished to achieve a beautiful, durable result.

Before leaving our shop, every piece is thoroughly inspected to ensure it meets our standards.

06 | installation

precision, delivered.

Our work doesn't end when the cabinetry leaves the shop.

Our installation team carefully delivers and installs every piece while working alongside homeowners, builders, and designers to ensure a seamless fit.

the final walkthrough

Before we consider your project complete, we'll walk through every detail together. We'll make final adjustments, answer questions, and ensure everything functions exactly as intended.

Because we believe the last impression should be just as exceptional as the first.
