How it works
We turned thousands of real Canadian invoices into a simple tool. Answer three questions and see your number — the same way a seasoned estimator would price it.
Galley, standard, or open-concept. We translate your layout into linear feet of cabinetry — the way the trade actually quotes.
From ready-to-assemble to bespoke millwork. Each tier carries its own real materials, hardware, and labour costs.
Labour and retail pricing swing by region. We adjust your range to Toronto, Vancouver, Calgary and beyond — instantly.

Your estimate
Estimates are planning ranges built from aggregated 2026 Canadian cabinet and installation data, including materials, hardware, delivery and professional installation. Final pricing depends on door style, finish, accessories and site conditions. Use this to budget and pre-qualify — not as a formal quote.
What Canadians actually pay
Average installed cost for a standard kitchen — roughly 22 linear feet of cabinetry. The gap between flat-pack and full custom is wider than most people expect.
Installed cost for a medium (≈22 lf) kitchen at national-average pricing, including materials, hardware and professional installation. Figures rounded to the nearest $100.
Same semi-custom kitchen, priced where you live.
Cabinet types, explained
The right tier depends on your budget, your timeline, and how long you'll live with it. Here's the honest trade-off for each.
Ready-to-assemble, shipped flat-packed to your door. Modern plywood boxes and soft-close hardware now rival mid-tier cabinets — if you're comfortable building them yourself.
Pre-built in standard sizes from big-box retailers. Quick to get and easy to budget, with a limited palette of doors and finishes. Great for rentals and quick refreshes.
The sweet spot for most renovations. Modify sizes, choose from dozens of finishes, and add organizers — without paying for a fully bespoke build. Durable and resale-friendly.
Bespoke millwork built to your exact space. Any wood species, integrated panels, floor-to-ceiling runs, hidden appliance garages — heirloom-quality, made once, for you.
We walked into the showroom already knowing our number. For the first time in this whole renovation, we felt like the expert in the room — not the easiest sale.
