I'd charge you for a day, which would be $450.00.

I know it sounds alike a lot but you have to figure that by the time I
set up, do the work, break down and leave - I won't have enough day
left to sell to anybody else.

Now, I'm quoting you shop/road rate for a cabinetmaker.

If I was still jobbing out finish carpentry, I'd still charge you for
a day but it would only be about $270.00 to $320.00.

You want to make sure that you get a good mechanic to do this kind of
prefinished work. Kitchen guys are used to it but make sure that you
are getting a guy who doesn't own a caulk gun or a piece of the local
plastic wood concession.
