From Astoria’s brownstones to Bayside’s colonials, well-built kitchen and bath cabinets are the showpiece of residential projects throughout Queens. Yet every contractor knows that hidden variables—wall plumb, ceiling height, lead times—can turn a profitable job into a money pit. That is where CountBricks steps in. Our AI-powered estimating engine listens to your site walk-through, translates your voice notes into structured tasks, and delivers real-time numbers for labor, materials and mark-ups specific to Queens cabinets installations.
Queens is a borough of tight stairwells, co-op regulations, and patchwork framing from almost a century of remodels. These factors drive up installation hours and material waste compared with suburban builds. When homeowners search “queens cabinets,” their intent usually falls into three buckets:
• Price discovery for a future renovation
• Comparing quotes already in hand
• Seeking a turnkey contractor who can manage design, delivery and install
Meeting each intent begins with an honest, data-driven estimate.
• Building access: Walk-ups add labor for each box hauled upstairs
• Existing conditions: Out-of-square walls require filler strips and extra scribing
• Permit layers: Certain community boards demand architectural letters
• Traffic logistics: Peak-hour deliveries incur trucking surcharges
CountBricks’ database adjusts for these borough-specific modifiers in seconds, eliminating guesswork.
1. You open the CountBricks mobile app during a walkthrough.
2. Speak naturally: “Twelve linear feet of 36-inch uppers, shaker doors, white maple plywood boxes.”
3. Our AI converts speech to line-items—cabinet carcasses, crown, toe kicks, fillers.
4. Real-time prices pull from regional supply houses and national brands.
5. Labor constants reference over 2,000 Queens cabinet installs completed by CountBricks partners.
6. You review, tweak margins, and email a branded PDF quote before leaving the driveway.
• Capture ceiling height to nearest ⅛": tall uppers add material and install time
• Note soffits early: removal impacts demo and disposal costs
• Record appliance specs: wider range hoods alter upper spacing
• Photograph electrical and plumbing rough-ins: relocation is a separate trade line
• Use CountBricks.com/services to add demolition, painting, or countertop scopes in one click
Queens homeowners often request frameless European boxes for maximized storage, but traditional face-frame remains popular in Tudor homes. CountBricks categorizes each selection so the client sees clear adders:
• Plywood vs particle board sides
• Soft-close hardware and full-extension slides
• Custom color spraying vs factory finish
• Inset doors, glass fronts, or decorative panels
The price transparency builds trust—and higher close rates.
A recent CountBricks project in Douglaston illustrates the power of granular takeoffs. The contractor dictated specs on site; our platform generated a $18,740 materials list and 128 labor-hour schedule. The homeowner signed the same day. Actual completion landed within 2% of estimate thanks to:
• Automated change-order tracking inside the app
• Push notifications when the supplier price for white shaker doors rose 3%
• Real-time schedule adjustments after one delivery delay

Queens’s housing stock is a mosaic of prewar masonry, mid-century brick and new infill. That variance challenges even veteran carpenters. CountBricks bridges the gap between lightning-fast estimates and on-site craftsmanship with three unique features:
• Dynamic Labor Curve: Our algorithm adjusts hourly rates when your crew encounters plaster walls or multiple elevator trips, ensuring profitability without padding the quote.
• Blueprint Takeoffs in 60 Seconds: Upload a co-op’s PDF floor plan to CountBricks.com/takeoffs, mark cabinet runs, and receive instant quantities for boxes, fillers and hardware—no more manual scaling.
• Task Sequencing Alerts: When you lock a cabinet start date, the platform auto-pings electricians and countertop fabricators logged in your project, preventing the dreaded schedule pile-up common in tight Queens kitchens.
