Frequently Asked Questions
What is Custom Cabinetry?
Custom cabinetry is built from scratch around your room — not chosen from a catalogue and adjusted to fit. That means no awkward gaps and no storage that was designed for someone else’s room. The layout, the materials, the finish, and every interior detail are planned around the way you actually live and work in the space.
Yes — custom cabinets are a bigger upfront investment, but there’s a reason for that. You’re paying for design time, skilled craftsmanship, higher-quality materials, and a product that’s built specifically for your home. In Ontario, that typically puts custom cabinetry in the $15,000 to $40,000+ range, depending on size and scope. Stock cabinets, by comparison, might cost $5,000 to $12,000 for a similar space.
But the long-term value often tells a different story. Well-built custom cabinets can last 20 to 50 years, while many stock options fall closer to 10 to 25 years. You’re also avoiding compromises like filler strips, wasted space, and layouts that don’t quite function properly.
So while the upfront cost is higher, many homeowners find the long-term durability and daily usability make it worthwhile.
In most kitchens, yes — drawers are easier to live with. With a drawer, everything pulls out toward you, so you can see what you have and reach it without digging around. With a cabinet door and shelf, items tend to get pushed to the back and forgotten.
That difference becomes even more noticeable with pots and pans, food containers, dishes, and other heavier everyday items. Drawers simply make lower storage more accessible.
They’re also easier on your back, since you’re not bending and reaching as much. For many homeowners, that convenience alone makes them worth the extra cost.
A mix of deep drawers, medium drawers, and a few specialized pull-outs often creates a kitchen that feels far more functional than a row of basic lower cabinets.
Stock cabinets come in fixed sizes and finishes from a manufacturer’s product line. Custom cabinets are built to your exact measurements, which means no fillers, no awkward gaps, and far more flexibility in how storage is designed.
Stock cabinets are built for convenience. They come in standard sizes, usually in 3-inch increments, and are available quickly — often within a week or two. That works well if your kitchen happens to fit those dimensions. But most don’t.
In many Ontario homes, walls aren’t perfectly square, ceilings vary, and layouts have quirks. That’s where stock cabinets fall short. You end up with filler pieces, gaps, and storage that doesn’t quite work the way you want it to.
Custom cabinets take a different approach. Everything is built to fit your exact space, so instead of working around limitations, the design works around you.
Since cabinetry is commonly estimated to make up 30–40% of a kitchen renovation budget — a figure widely cited across the Canadian building industry — this decision matters more than most people expect. If you’re planning to stay in your home long-term, custom cabinets often deliver better value through improved storage, better fit, and a more intentional result.
Yes. A warranty is provided on the work performed, with the exact terms depending on the type and scope of the project. That’s worth reviewing carefully during the quote stage so you understand what’s covered, how long the coverage lasts, and what to expect if any issues come up after installation.
A good warranty adds reassurance, but it also reflects confidence in the workmanship and materials being used. It shows that the project isn’t just about getting the job done — it’s about standing behind the result afterward as well.
Start with function. Think about what you store, how you move through the room, what frustrates you about the current layout, and what daily tasks need to get easier. Style decisions are always easier once you have a clear picture of how the space needs to work.
Before you get too far into colours, door styles, or finishes, it helps to start with the practical side of the project.
Think about how your kitchen works right now. What do you store? What do you use every day? What feels frustrating or inefficient?
Go beyond dishes and cookware. Include small appliances, pantry items, cleaning products, recycling, pet food, kids’ snacks, and anything else that regularly lives in the space. Most homeowners realize pretty quickly that they need more thoughtful storage than they expected. One useful exercise is to open every cabinet and drawer in your current kitchen and photograph the contents — it gives you a concrete inventory to design around, rather than guessing from memory.
It also helps to pay attention to your daily habits. Are you always moving things around to reach what you need? Do the counters feel cluttered no matter how often you clean them? Is your garbage or recycling in an awkward spot?
Those small frustrations usually point to the changes that matter most. In many Ontario homes, common pain points include insufficient pantry space, poor corner cabinet access, and recycling and composting storage that doesn’t match municipal sorting requirements. Once you understand how the space needs to function, the style decisions become much easier — because they’re being built around real needs, not guesswork.
Yes. Chase Cabinetry also works on select commercial projects across the Niagara region. That can include office cabinetry, reception counters, staff kitchens, and workspace storage. Commercial work often has different needs than residential projects, especially when it comes to durability, traffic, and accessibility requirements.
Because of that, each commercial job is usually considered based on its specific scope. Some spaces need straightforward built-in storage, while others require more specialized design and coordination.
