Service · Montréal, Laval and the West Island

Custom kitchen cabinets in Montréal, cut for your room

Measured in your kitchen, drawn in AutoCAD, built on Boulevard Thimens and installed by the people who made it. Ten year warranty on the cabinetry.

How it works

A nine foot island built as one piece of cabinetry and levelled on site. The dishwasher sits behind a matching panel, so the run reads as a single line.

The service

Drawn first, then built

A custom kitchen is not a catalogue kitchen with a filler pushed into the gap. Every box is cut for the opening it goes into, so a run that measures nine feet four and a half inches gets nine feet four and a half inches of cabinetry, and a wall that leans over its height gets a scribe drawn for it instead of improvised on installation day.

The order never changes. Someone comes to the house and measures every wall, every window reveal and every service. The kitchen is then drawn in AutoCAD as elevations, one per run, with the appliances in place and the dimensions on the page. You approve those drawings before a single sheet is cut, and the written price is fixed against them. Fabrication happens in our own workshop on Boulevard Thimens in Saint-Laurent, and the company that drew the kitchen is the one that delivers and installs it.

Boxes are melamine or plywood, dowelled and edged, standing on adjustable levellers. The fronts carry the room: thermofoil heat formed over shaped MDF, sprayed MDF in any colour, melamine in a wood grain, a shaker frame, or solid wood where the profile asks for it. Hinges and runners are Blum or Richelieu, soft close as standard. Countertops are quartz, quartzite, Dekton or porcelain, templated once the boxes are standing rather than from a drawing.

What gets drawn before anything is cut

  • A measured plan of the room, with the plumbing, the gas and the electrical marked on it.
  • An elevation of every run, at scale, with the real appliance openings rather than the brochure ones.
  • The hardware schedule: hinges, runners, pulls, lighting, waste units.
  • A 3D view when the layout is unusual, so the room is understood before it is ordered. That is part of kitchen design and 3D plans.
  • An itemised written price that does not move unless you move it.

Where the money actually goes

Three things move the price of a kitchen more than anything else: how many drawers there are, what the fronts are made of, and what goes on top. A drawer is a box inside a box, so a run of all drawers costs more than the same run in doors. Integrated appliance panels add material and a fussier fit. Stone is priced by the slab, and an island with two waterfall ends uses more of it than the square footage suggests. When a budget is tight we would rather take a drawer bank out of the pantry than take the quality out of the hinges, and we say so with the numbers in front of you.

Questions about custom cabinets

What people ask before ordering a kitchen

How much do custom kitchen cabinets cost in Montréal?

A kitchen is priced by what is in it, not by the square footage of the house: the linear feet of cabinetry, the box material, the front material, how many drawers there are, how much of the appliance run is integrated, and what goes on the counter. A ten foot galley and a full renovation with an island are not comparable numbers. We measure, we draw the elevations, and we hand you an itemised written price. Both the visit and the quote are free.

How long does a custom kitchen take?

Count on three to five weeks of fabrication once you approve the drawings, then one to three days on site. The part that varies is the beginning: decisions about colour, hardware and stone. Kitchens where those are settled at the measure move quickly. Our fastest went from green light to handover in two weeks, and that is not the average.

What is the difference between custom and semi-custom?

Semi-custom means a catalogue of box sizes in three inch steps, with fillers covering the difference. Custom means the box is cut to the opening. In an older Montréal house, where nothing is square and the ceiling changes height across the room, that difference is visible from the doorway. It also means the cabinetry can run to the ceiling and around a bulkhead instead of stopping short of it.

What are the boxes made of?

Melamine on an engineered core as standard, dowelled and edged on all visible sides, or plywood where you want it. Both are dimensionally stable through a Montréal winter, which matters more than it sounds in a room with a dishwasher in it. Backs are captured in a groove rather than stapled on, and every base cabinet sits on adjustable levellers so the run can be set true on an uneven floor.

Can you build to the ceiling, and around a bulkhead?

Yes, and it is usually the cheapest storage in the room. One extra row of doors above the standard run, with a light rail underneath, adds a great deal of space for very little money. Bulkheads are measured individually and the cabinetry is drawn to meet them, which is exactly the case a catalogue kitchen cannot handle.

Do you supply the countertop as well?

We do. Quartz, quartzite, Dekton and porcelain, templated after the boxes are standing so the stone matches the room rather than the drawing. It is a separate line on the quote, and you are free to buy it elsewhere. The countertops page sets out what each material does well.

Do you handle the demolition, the plumbing and the electrical?

We remove the old kitchen and install the new one. Plumbing and electrical connections are done by licensed trades, either yours or ours, and we coordinate the dates so nobody waits on anybody. If a wall has to move, that is a general contractor's job, and we say so at the visit rather than after the deposit.

Which areas do you cover?

The workshop is at 4130 Boulevard Thimens in Saint-Laurent. We build across the island, in Laval, on the South Shore and along the North Shore. The service areas page lists every one, with the sectors and the drive times.
