PROCESS

DESIGN

You will have the opportunity to be part of the design process, ensuring custom needs are met every step of the way. We will accommodate a full variety of colour, hardware, countertop, door and design requirements to suit your style.

A personalized proposal with your plans is then produced to enable you to visualize your project. Using the personalized drawings, our cabinetmakers begin the process of hand building the kitchen of your dreams!

CONSTRUCTIONWe love our new custom kitchen!  From concept to the last detail, working with Burchell-O'Brien Custom Cabinets has been a pleasure.  We needed and really appreciated the flexibility of working with Steve because our renovation was extensive, we made our small kitchen and dining room into a large kitchen, so a lot of planning was required.   Burchell-O'Brien also made it so easy to find and personally select our granite counter-tops  and then co-ordinate their installation. Steve and his crew were patient, professional and courteous.  We would highly recommend Burchell-O'Brien!
