It is time to rip out our kitchen and replace it.

Looking for -

- good quality cabinets with solid wood stained doors.
- stone counter of some sort - thinking granite might be best.

Looking for a competent company to make or provide and install the cabinets.

Any suggestions ???

I've used Cabinet Dimensions 2 times, great products and install. Philip installs and wife Charlene is the designer. 20+ yrs in the business. They are in the Domino plaza Wilson & Main.

i had a referral with cabinet dimensions and they even started some concepting work. oddly enough, after a while I could never get a hold of them and they never returned my e-mails. not sure if they had some sort of emergency or just got busy. they were nice to work with up to that point.

concept cabinets also seemed pretty good as well. I only got to concepting and price but at least they got back to me and even made some stain samples.

I ended up going with laurentide. this really surprised me as they seemed too upscale from entering into their showroom but they were able to work with my budget. I'm pretty happy with the outcome (but would change a few things based on what I've learned now, it was my first remodel). they have a no hst event going on right now.

the box stores have some pretty good quality stuff but it's all seems quite expensive, even with the frequent sales.

I'd check out a few places and get a feel for the person you'd be working with.

Thanks for the feedback sschung.

Cabinet Dimensions is coming by next week but was told it may take up to 2 weeks to get a quote but I hope to get a quote sooner then that. I liked what I saw in their showroom.

Laurentid seems reasonable, came over promptly, and gave me a quote within a week. On a side note - I saw the kitchen person at Home Hardware. A week later I called for the quote and was told it would be another couple days. That was over 2 weeks ago and never heard back.

A tip Andy, get as many lower units with drawers as possible, hang the cost, they are much more useful than a door with 1 shelf.

That's the plan. Right now we have a couple lower cabinets with pull out drawers. We will be replacing them with drawers.
