Custom cabinetry in Scugog
Valmont designs, builds and installs custom cabinetry in Scugog: kitchens, bars, closets, laundry rooms and built-ins in Port Perry and around Lake Scugog. Port Perry's older streets carry heritage houses with narrow hallways and stairs that turn twice. That is the first thing we check, because a tall unit that cannot make the turn has to be built as two sections, and it is far better to know that at the measure than on delivery day.
Scugog, on the ground.
Around the lake the houses lean the other way: additions, sunrooms and rooms with windows on three walls. Cabinetry there tends to be low and long, because there is very little solid wall left to hang anything on. We put the storage into deep drawers, run a peninsula where an island would block the view, and keep the upper runs short so the window line stays uninterrupted.
Boxes, doors and drawer fronts are cut, edged and finished in our shop in Richmond Hill, then dry-fitted before delivery. Kam designs and builds. The crew measures, delivers and installs. You see elevations plus a photorealistic 3D rendering at step two, and the quote is itemized line by line, so each room, each run and each extra panel is visible instead of folded into one figure.
Lakeside rooms in Scugog have little solid wall, so storage moves into deep drawers and a single tall run.
Scugog centres on Port Perry's heritage streets and the houses ringing Lake Scugog, many of them added to over the years.
Narrow halls and turning stairs in the older village houses decide whether tall units ship in one piece or two.
Kitchens, bars, laundry rooms and window wall built-ins are the common Scugog jobs.

Asked before the first call.
Our Port Perry house has a narrow hall and a turning stair. Is that a problem?
It is a measurement, not a problem. We take the hall width, the stair turn and the ceiling at the landing, then build anything that will not fit in one piece as sections joined on site. The joint lands on a reveal, so it reads as part of the design rather than a repair.
The kitchen looks at the lake and has almost no wall space. Where does the storage go?
Downward. Deep drawers hold more than uppers do and they do not interrupt a window line. We usually add one tall run on the single solid wall, put the microwave or the coffee setup behind a door there, and keep the window wall to counter and a low backsplash.
Do you handle properties that are not occupied year round?
Yes. We ask for a key holder or a site contact, confirm that heat and power will be on during the install, and photograph the finished work for you if you cannot be there. Anything needing a decision on site is sent to you with a photo before we carry on.
