Designer kitchens and cabinetry produced with personal service, flair and a passion for customer satisfaction

Owner Tim Calkin’s background in design and woodworking provide the perfect combination to help you transform your kitchen into a space of beauty and function - all at a very affordable price.

Starting his career as a graphic designer before moving into joinery provides him with a real point of difference where he not only has mastery over the latest kitchen design software, even more importantly his keen design eye can guide you to a result you will love.

Throw in the latest CNC cutting and edging technologies and all the ingredients are present for the design, manufacture and installation of your dream kitchen, bathroom, laundry or shelving unit.

For Tim, client satisfaction is paramount. “It gives me a real buzz when the customers are delighted with the results, I love the client to be really excited about their new kitchen, cabinets or shelving unit. This is our goal on every project,” says Tim.

Tim gives this desire for customer satisfaction real substance by starting every job with the aim of getting a 5-star review at the end of it.

He explains: “My business is built on the success and satisfaction of my clients. Therefore my objective is to make my work worthy of a Google 5-Star Review and I will take all reasonable steps to make this happen for you! As you’ll see on my Google business profile, every review reflects a 5-star rating and I aim to keep it that way. My goal is that on completion you will be sufficiently satisfied to leave a 5-star review.”

Tim behind the scenes

Tim is married to Megan and they live in Raumati South. Tim was born in Wellington, attending Wellington High School and Kapiti College, living most of his life on the Kapiti Coast. He is a keen sportsman having been a keen cricket and hockey player, while now most recreation time is spent fishing or golfing. Music has also always been a passion, including playing live and recording music through a variety of bands over the years including the popular hip-hop combos, The No Problemos and The Seaside Sloths.

“Tim was absolutely brilliant. Every little detail and all the work was done to a high standard. We are blown away with the result. Great price, excellent communication, and Tim was excellent to deal with. He went above and beyond our expectations – we would highly recommend him to anyone wanting a new kitchen. The price was extremely competitive and so we got a new kitchen out of it rather than just some doors and cabinetry replaced.”
