Cabinets installed level, square, and built to last
Cabinet installation looks straightforward but depends on prep, levelling, scribing, and fastening. We confirm the cabinet plan, prepare the walls and floor, then install the bases, uppers, fillers, and trim so the kitchen reads clean.
We install factory cabinets, custom cabinetry, and built-in pantries, all sequenced with countertops, plumbing, electrical, and finishing.
Base cabinets
Levelled, shimmed, and screwed into place with proper alignment for countertops and appliances.
Upper cabinets
Hung at consistent heights with rails or ledgers, screwed to studs, and aligned with bases.
Tall pantries
Pantries, broom closets, and tall units installed plumb and tied into surrounding cabinetry.
Fillers and trim
Fillers, scribes, crown, light rail, valances, and toe kicks installed for a finished look.

What goes into cabinet installation
Layout, levelling, fastening, and finishing planned together

Kitchen Cabinet Installation Questions in Ottawa
Answers to common questions Ottawa homeowners ask before installing new kitchen cabinets.
Do you install custom and stock cabinets?
Yes. We install custom cabinets, semi-custom cabinets, and stock cabinets. Each one needs different prep, but the goal is the same: level, square, and built to last.
Will the cabinets need fillers or scribes?
Most installations need fillers, scribes, or shims because walls and floors are rarely perfectly flat. We plan and cut those cleanly so the cabinets meet the walls without gaps.
Do you adjust the doors and drawers?
Yes. After installation, doors and drawers are adjusted for consistent gaps, smooth operation, and aligned reveals across the kitchen.
How long does cabinet installation take?
For a standard kitchen, cabinet installation usually takes one to several days. Larger or more complex layouts with custom cabinetry take longer.
