Custom kitchen cabinets in Ajax
Driveways and attached garages give the crew a clear path, and most installs load in through the garage. We measure to the millimetre, build and dry-fit in the shop, deliver finished boxes and level, scribe and align them on site over [n] days. A custom kitchen is measured, drawn and rendered before a board is cut, then built in our shop and installed by the same crew.
Ajax, on the ground.
Ajax is dominated by subdivision houses from the 1990s onward, with a band of older streets near the lake. Older kitchens bring bulkheads, out-of-square corners and plaster to scribe to; newer ones bring long runs, islands and ceilings tall enough for two-tier uppers. Kitchens, tall pantries, laundry rooms and closet fit-outs are the common jobs in Ajax.
Many kitchens in Ajax share the same builder footprint, so the gains come from the corner, the fridge wall and the run under the window.

No figures published. The drivers, in order.
| Driver | What we look at |
|---|---|
| Length of the run and the box count | Every cabinet is a box with a door or a drawer bank. More linear feet and more drawers means more shop hours. |
| Door construction | Painted five-piece and slab sit at one end, sequence-matched veneer and solid fluted fronts at the other. |
| Tall units and appliance panels | Floor-to-ceiling units, integrated fridge and dishwasher panels and a 9 or 10 ft ceiling add material and fitting time. |
| Island, stone and integrated pulls | A waterfall end, a mitred slab and pulls machined into the door change the build more than any colour choice. |
Colour, soft-close hardware and most pulls barely move the number. Every quote is itemized from your drawings and we walk you through each line before you sign.
Asked before the first call.
Do you install kitchens in Ajax yourselves?
Yes. The crew that builds the boxes in our shop delivers and installs them in Ajax. Nothing is handed to a subcontractor between the drawing and the last door adjustment.
Can I see my Ajax kitchen before you build it?
Yes. After the measure you get elevations and a photorealistic rendering with your doors, finish and hardware in your own room. Nothing is cut until you approve the drawings.
How messy is an install day?
The crew puts down floor protection, works from the truck rather than staging boxes through the house, and cleans up at the end of each day. Old cabinets come out first if we are removing them, and offcuts and packaging leave with us. Dust from countertop templating and plumbing belongs to those trades.
Can you match new cabinetry to what we already have?
We can match a painted finish closely and we can match a door profile. Wood grain and older factory finishes are harder, because they change as they age. The honest answer is that a match is easiest when the new work sits in a different room. We tell you at the sample stage which way it will go.
