A lot of open-concept living rooms in Schertz have a corner or half-wall that's just asking for a bar, but a store-bought cart never quite fits the space or matches the kitchen finish. Schertz Custom Cabinets builds bar cabinetry to the actual wall dimensions, with storage sized for how you actually entertain, glassware, bottles, small appliances, instead of generic cubbies.
Most home bar jobs run from a simple beverage station to a full wet bar with a sink and matching upper cabinets. We can match the cabinetry to your kitchen finish or treat the bar as its own design statement.

Home Bar Cabinetry FAQs
How much does home bar cabinetry cost in Schertz?
Most projects run $1,800 to $18,000 depending on size, whether you add plumbing, and how much wine or glass storage you want built in.
Can a home bar match my existing kitchen cabinets?
We can match door style, wood species, and finish so the bar reads as part of the kitchen rather than a separate piece.
Do I need a plumber for a wet bar?
If you're adding a sink or ice maker drain, yes, we coordinate with a licensed plumber for that part of the job.
How long does a home bar cabinet build take?
A beverage station can be ready in about 2-3 weeks from design approval; a full wet bar with plumbing runs 4-6 weeks.
Can you build in a wine fridge or beverage cooler?
We build cutouts and ventilation clearance to spec for most standard beverage fridge and wine cooler models.
What finish holds up best for a home bar?
A catalyzed conversion varnish resists spills and wipe-downs better than a basic lacquer, which matters for a surface that sees drinks regularly.
