How much does custom cabinetry cost in Charlottetown?

Custom cabinetry in Charlottetown typically ranges from $30,000 to $90,000+ for a full kitchen, depending on the size of the space, door style, wood species, hardware, and complexity. Smaller commissions like a single vanity or a run of built-ins usually start between $4,500 and $14,000. Because every Hempston project is made to measure, we provide a fully itemised written quote after your Charlottetown design consultation — no vague estimates, no surprise line items.

How long does a custom kitchen project take in Charlottetown?

From your first design consultation to installation, most Charlottetown kitchens take 8 to 16 weeks. Design and approvals usually take 2 to 4 weeks, fabrication in our workshop 5 to 10 weeks, and installation 3 to 7 days on site. We confirm your timeline in writing before any deposit is taken.

What is the difference between custom, semi-custom, and stock cabinets?

Stock cabinets come in fixed sizes off the shelf and rarely fit Charlottetown homes perfectly. Semi-custom offers limited modifications to standard boxes. Fully custom cabinetry — what Hempston builds — is designed and fabricated specifically for your room, your storage needs, and your chosen materials, with no filler panels or compromises. Custom cabinetry maximises every inch and lasts for decades.

Do you serve areas outside downtown Charlottetown?

Yes. We design and install custom cabinetry throughout Prince Edward Island, including Downtown Charlottetown, Brighton, Sherwood, Parkdale, West Royalty, Stratford, Cornwall, East Royalty and surrounding communities across Prince Edward Island.

What materials and finishes do you offer?

We work with solid hardwoods such as walnut, white oak, maple, and cherry, along with premium plywood casework, painted MDF for crisp Shaker and inset styles, and a wide range of hand-applied stains, lacquers, and conversion finishes. Soft-close doors and drawers, dovetailed solid-wood drawer boxes, and quality European hardware are standard on every Hempston project.

Are your cabinets made locally?

Every piece is designed and hand-built by our team in our Canadian workshops — never imported flat-pack. We install coast to coast, and each project ships fully pre-staged and quality-checked before it leaves the shop, so on-site work in Charlottetown is precise and fast.

Do you offer kitchen design services?

Yes. Design is built into every Hempston project. Our kitchen designers handle the full layout — work triangle, island placement, storage zones, lighting, and appliance planning — and provide scaled drawings, 3D renderings, and material samples so you can see and feel your new kitchen before we build it.

Can you build any cabinet style or colour?

Yes. Hempston is a 100% custom cabinet maker — you are never limited to a fixed catalogue. The door profiles, inset styles, and finishes shown on our site are just a sample. We build virtually any door style, wood species, paint colour, or stain — from modern handleless slabs to classic beaded inset — and can match a reference photo or an existing piece in your home.

Do you offer a warranty on custom cabinetry?

We stand behind our craftsmanship with a comprehensive workmanship warranty, and we pass along manufacturer warranties on hardware and finishes. Full details are provided in writing with your project agreement.

Do I need a permit for a kitchen renovation in Charlottetown?

Simply replacing cabinetry usually doesn't require a permit, but a full kitchen renovation that moves plumbing, electrical, or walls typically does need a permit from the City of Charlottetown. We coordinate with your contractor and can point you to official building-permit information at charlottetown.ca so the cabinetry side of your project stays fully compliant.

Is HST included in your Charlottetown quotes?

Our itemised, written quotes clearly show pricing and applicable Prince Edward Island tax (HST 15%) before any deposit, so you always know your total investment up front — no vague estimates or surprise add-ons.
