Get a Kitchen Designed for the Way you Cook and Live

Homeowners from Reids Mills to Old Ottawa start by with a survey of how you use your kitchen. We listen and learn what you need so we understand how your kitchen will be used. Custom design is so powerful because you get what you need now.

Prep areas, storage, and appliances, lighting, and electrical right where you need them. The designer can even adjust counter heights and cabinet depth to match how you cook. We'll think about how sunlight comes in and how people move through the room so you'll get the most out of your kitchen for years to come.

Full-Service Custom Kitchen Design Covers From Planning to Final Install

Ottawa custom kitchen projects include every step from the first meeting to the final installation. We measure your space, create layout plans, and pick all materials and finishes. The service progresses from design, material selection, cabinet making, to moving appliances. Our installation team handles demolishing and recycling old cabinets, updating plumbing, installing new cabinets, and adding trim work. We'll advise on what's needed for your project including working with any trades or consultants to get city permits.

Custom Cabinetry For Your Kitchen

KV Construction is a millwork expert. We regularly deliver custom cabinets for renovations or new builds in and around Ottawa. Whether you're filling irregular spaces, looking for corner cabinet, pantry systems, and appliance storage we've got you covered. Cabinet features include pull-out organizers, tray dividers, and spice racks sized to fit your available space.

Ottawa homeowners often ask for custom height cabinets that span the full wall without gaps at the ceiling. Designs can also add toe-kick drawers and tall dividers for sheet pans and cutting boards. It's your kitchen and the only limit is imagination.

Experienced Kitchen Designers

The best kitchen designers work with what you have, and make it something special. We'll look at your layout and finishes, and map out efficiency and traffic patterns1 for how you use it. A good designer will take into account how you use your kitchen, a great designer will make it so you never think about it.

Maybe the biggest advantage to working with an experienced designer is our understanding of materials and finishes.

Custom Design Works Within Existing Ottawa Home Structure

Ottawa custom kitchen design works with load-bearing walls, plumbing pipes, and electrical panels already in place. We work within your current space or plan for wall removal with engineer approval. Older Ottawa homes need custom solutions for uneven floors and plaster walls. Design considers soil settling, which makes doors not line up right in older Ottawa homes. Custom cabinets hide support posts and air ducts that can't be moved.

What is included in custom kitchen design in Ottawa?

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I start a custom kitchen design project in Ottawa?
Call to schedule an on-site visit where we measure your space and discuss your needs. We walk through your current kitchen to see what works and what doesn't. We talk about your cooking habits, storage needs, and budget.
What should I prepare before meeting a kitchen designer in Ottawa?
Write down which cabinets you open most, where you need more storage, and what bothers you about your current layout. Take photos of kitchens you like and don't like. Make a list of appliances you want to keep or replace.
Can custom kitchen design work in my Ottawa condo or older home?
Custom design fixes odd layouts, low ceilings, and building problems common in Ottawa homes. We work with existing pipe locations and electrical panels. Older homes work better with custom solutions for uneven walls and floors.
How long before I can use my kitchen after custom design installation starts?
Kitchen installation time varies based on project size. You'll need a temporary cooking setup using a microwave and a cooler in another room. We plan the schedule to cause minimal disruption and give you a clear timeline during your first visit.
Do I need permits for custom kitchen design in Ottawa?
Ottawa requires permits for electrical, plumbing, and building changes. We work with city inspectors throughout the project. Permit requests go through the City of Ottawa building department.
What kitchen measurements does a designer need in Ottawa?
We measure wall lengths, ceiling height, window locations, and where appliances and plumbing are now. You don't need to measure anything before we arrive. We check all sizes on-site before creating the design.
