    We live in a raised ranch and for the past year we’ve been remodeling the upstairs. We installed new windows, molding, outlets and switches, flooring, sliding door, paint and a kitchen. The old kitchen was 25 years with cheap cabinets and an awkward peninsula. We are very happy! Please guess what wood the cabinets are.

    Looks amazing!

    Your cabinets are made of the same wood we use for heat.

    Kitchen looks great.

    No clue on the wood species.
    First thought was maple, but don't think that's right.

    That looks really nice. Great job. Did you happen to find some pecan to build your cabinets?
