What we make

Custom cabinetry & millwork

From a single vanity to a full kitchen and the built-ins around it, every piece is handmade to perfection in our shop.

  • Custom kitchens

    Full kitchen cabinetry built to your layout — islands, pantries, appliance panels and the awkward corners nobody else wants to solve.

  • Bathroom vanities

    Floating, furniture-style or wall-to-wall, in finishes that survive a real bathroom.

  • Closets & wardrobes

    Walk-ins, reach-ins, mudroom lockers and sloped-ceiling fits that use every inch.

  • Built-ins & media walls

    Entertainment centres, home offices and libraries, scribed to your walls so they look original to the house.

  • Fireplace mantels

    Solid wood mantels and full millwork surrounds, from traditional profiles to flush modern panelling.

  • Cabinet refacing

    New doors, drawer fronts and veneer on sound existing cabinet boxes — the look of a new kitchen for a fraction of the cost.

About

Meet Dimitri Giovani, master craftsman

Dimitri has been building custom cabinetry and millwork in the Lower Mainland for more than 40 years. Trained in the European tradition, he measures, builds and installs every piece himself, and works on each one until it is perfect. The person who quotes your kitchen is the person who builds it.

Four decades of kitchens teaches you where cabinetry fails — the sink base that swells, the door that sags, the filler strip that never quite fits — and how to build so it doesn't.

That is how the quality stays consistent: every piece is checked at the bench by the craftsman who made it, and nothing leaves the shop until it is right.

We work with homeowners, designers and builders from Vancouver to Abbotsford. Most of our work comes from people who saw a job we did for a neighbour.

What clients say

Trusted across the Lower Mainland

  • Dimitri has just finished the kitchen cabinets and they are without a doubt a masterpiece — the attention to detail, the quality of the work, the on-time performance, the caring attitude.
    Casper Jasper
  • First was a built-in wall unit for my home office. I wanted a piece that was not intrusive to the space, and that is what I got. You are paying for European workmanship, and clearly Dimitri takes pride in what he does.
    Vancouverfit
  • Dimitri's comprehensive experience is reflected in his outstanding and masterly workmanship.
    Karl & Roxy
  • We needed some finicky cabinetry repairs made in our kitchen. We are extremely happy with all the work completed, and with Dimitri's willingness to attend to several other small repairs as well. The attention to detail is exceptional.
