Custom Cabinetry for Markham Homes

Many Markham homes were built by production builders in the last few decades: well-planned houses in Unionville, Cornell, Berczy Village and Cathedraltown, finished with builder-grade cabinetry. As those homes mature, owners replace standard kitchens and closets with work made to suit how they actually live. Kali Custom Cabinetry Inc. builds that work in our own shop in Scarborough, just south of the city line.

What we build for Markham

• Kitchen replacements that reuse a good layout and upgrade everything else
• Islands with seating, storage and appliance space
• Vanities for ensuites and family bathrooms
• Walk-in and reach-in closets in white melamine
• Laundry rooms with full-height storage
• Wet bars and media walls for finished basements
• Built-ins for home offices, dens and mudrooms

In older areas such as Markham Village and Thornhill, and in larger homes around Angus Glen, projects are often more extensive and may involve a designer from the start. We are comfortable working from a homeowner’s measurements or a full designer package.

How it works

1. Drawings. Share your plans, a designer’s drawings, or measurements and photos of the existing room.
2. Shop drawings. We produce shop drawings for every job, showing every cabinet, panel and filler for your approval.
3. Build. Parts are CNC machined and assembled in our Scarborough shop. Prefinished work runs 3–4 weeks from approved drawings.
4. Delivery and install. We deliver and install with our own crew, quoted as a separate line.

Replacing a builder kitchen is often a chance to rethink the details builders skip: deeper drawers in place of base shelves, full-height pantry storage, panels that finish the ends of every run, and light channels under the uppers.

Materials and hardware

• Prefinished: Egger, Finsa and AGT panels, slab doors
• Painted and stained: shaker-family doors
• White melamine: closets and utility spaces
• Construction: 3/4″ melamine interiors standard, 3/4″ plywood upgrade
• Drawers: 5/8″ hard rock melamine drawer boxes
• Hardware: Blum or Salice soft-close
• Uppers: under-cabinet light channels

Stone countertops, wall panelling and LED tape, drivers and wiring are by others.

Why a local manufacturer

Builder cabinetry is made for volume. Custom cabinetry is made for one room. When the manufacturer is close by rather than behind a showroom, you deal with the people who draw and build your kitchen, and changes go straight into the shop drawings.

We also partner with interior designers, builders and contractors working in Markham. On those projects we work through the trade partner, never around them.

Frequently asked questions
