What to know about Custom cabinets
Custom cabinets are built by a cabinetmaker to the exact dimensions of your room instead of being chosen from a catalogue of standard sizes. That matters most where standard boxes fit poorly: an older house whose walls are neither straight nor square, a vanity squeezed between a tub and a wall, a laundry room built around a chimney, a mudroom with lockers and a bench, or an office, bar or pantry that needs every gap used.

- Hardware, railings and finishing
- Removal of what's there now
- Permits and drawings, where needed
How to choose cabinet makers in Vaughan
- Choose a carpenter whose past work matches your project, whether that's framing, trim, built-ins, stairs or a deck.
- Ask for drawings or a clear description of what will be built, including materials and finishes.
- For decks, stairs and railings, ask whether a permit is needed, since these are safety items.
- Get a written quote that says who supplies materials and whether finishing, such as painting or staining, is included.
- Ask how they'll handle surprises like rot or uneven walls and floors.
Questions to ask cabinet makers before you hire
- Can you show me photos of similar work you've done?
- What materials will you use, and why?
- Does this project need a permit, and will you get it?
- Is finishing, such as sanding, painting or staining, included?
- How will you attach the work to the existing structure?
- What warranty do you offer on your workmanship?
Custom cabinet permits in Ontario
Some custom cabinet work needs a permit or has to meet local bylaws. Rules vary by municipality, so ask your pro whether a permit is needed and who will apply for it — and check with your city or town if you’re unsure.
Licensing in Ontario
General contracting and renovation
Renovating an existing home generally doesn’t require an HCRA builder licence: HCRA says renovations or upgrades typically don’t make a home “new”. Ontario advises checking references, WSIB coverage and trade certificates before you hire.

Crown Moulding guide
Crown moulding runs along the joint where walls meet the ceiling, bridging the corner at an angle so it throws a soft shadow line around the room.

Common custom cabinet questions
Is LokalMatch free for homeowners?
Yes. You never pay LokalMatch to request quotes or talk to pros. Professionals pay a fee to connect with homeowners whose projects fit their business.
How many pros will contact me?
We introduce you to a small number of relevant pros — usually no more than three — so you’re not flooded with calls. If fewer pros are available in your area, we’ll tell you instead of promising quotes we can’t deliver.
Do I have to hire someone?
No. Requesting quotes doesn’t commit you to anything. Compare your options and hire only if someone is the right fit.
