Custom Millwork · Toronto & the GTA

Custom millwork for Toronto stores, restaurants, and offices

Millwork is the built-in woodwork in a commercial space: reception desks, service counters, cabinetry, wall panelling, bars, and display joinery. We draw it, build it in our own factory, and install it across the Greater Toronto Area, with $2,000,000 liability insurance and WSIB coverage on every site.

What custom millwork covers

Millwork is everything built into a commercial space rather than bought off a floor: the desk a customer walks up to, the counter your staff works behind, the cabinets that hold stock, and the panelling that carries the brand finish. It is drawn first, produced in a shop, and installed as a finished assembly.

We handle millwork for retail stores, restaurants and cafes, clinics and pharmacies, offices, and showrooms across the Greater Toronto Area, and we build it in our own factory rather than subcontracting it out.

Millwork Scope

Commercial millwork we build and install

Each element is drawn and quoted separately, so a reception desk, a back-of-house cabinet run, and a veneer feature wall never disappear into one lump-sum number.

Reception and service desks

Front desks, host stands, order counters, and pharmacy or clinic service points, with solid-surface or stone tops, cable management, and hardware built in.

Retail counters and cash wraps

Checkout counters, POS stations, and wrap desks sized around till equipment, bagging space, storage, and the queue line behind them.

Built-in cabinetry and casework

Base and upper cabinets, storage walls, back-of-house shelving, lockers, and closets with adjustable shelves, soft-close hardware, and finished interiors.

Feature walls and wall panelling

Slat walls, fluted panels, veneer feature walls, backlit panels, and bulkheads that hide services while carrying the brand finish.

Restaurant bars and back bars

Bar fronts, back bars, bubble tea and coffee counters, equipment cutouts, undercounter fridges, and waterproof finishes at wet zones.

Display joinery and shelving

Built-in display cases, wall bays, niches, and lit shelving where the millwork and the display fixtures have to read as one piece of furniture.

Materials and finishes

Melamine and high-pressure laminate for durable, cost-controlled casework
MDF with painted or lacquered finishes, including matte, satin, and high-gloss
Wood veneer and solid wood edging for warmer, premium interiors
Solid surface, quartz, and stone tops for counters and service desks
Powder-coated steel, stainless steel, and PVD-finished metal trims
Tempered and low-iron glass, acrylic panels, and integrated LED lighting
Commercial hardware: soft-close hinges, full-extension slides, locks, and levelers

Why clients choose us for millwork

Our own factory, not a broker

Cabinets, counters, and display joinery are produced in our own plant, so pricing, quality control, and schedule sit with one company instead of being passed down a chain of subcontractors.

Millwork and display fixtures together

Most millwork shops stop at the cabinetry. We also build the showcases, racks, and lit display cases that sit on or beside it, so the finishes and reveals match across the whole room.

Insured and WSIB-covered on site

Landlords and property managers routinely ask for certificates before work starts in a mall or office tower. We carry $2,000,000 commercial general liability insurance and WSIB coverage in good standing.

Drawings you can actually approve

Every job is drawn before it is built. You see dimensions, materials, and hardware on paper, which is where changes are cheap, instead of discovering them at install.

Process

From site measure to installed millwork

Site measure

We visit the unit, measure the space, and record column positions, service locations, ceiling heights, and the door and elevator sizes the finished millwork has to pass through.

Shop drawings

You receive plans, elevations, and sections showing dimensions, materials, edge details, hardware, and any electrical or plumbing cut-outs before anything is cut.

Finish selection

Laminate, paint, veneer, and stone samples are confirmed in writing, with gloss levels and colour codes noted so the shop and the site match.

Factory production

Cabinets and panels are cut, edged, assembled, finished, and dry-fitted in our own factory rather than built on site, which keeps dust, noise, and site time down.

Delivery and installation

Our GTA crew delivers, scribes, levels, and fixes the millwork, connects it to the electrical rough-ins, and hands over a cleaned, adjusted installation.

What drives the price

Millwork quotes move on a handful of variables. Knowing them early keeps the design inside the budget instead of value-engineering it afterwards.

Linear feet of cabinetry and counter, and how much of it is custom rather than repeated
Material and finish: melamine and laminate sit at the low end, painted MDF mid-range, veneer and stone at the top
Countertop material, thickness, and edge profile
Integrated lighting, power, data, and plumbing cut-outs
Hardware grade, locks, and specialty mechanisms such as lift-ups or pocket doors
Site conditions: floor level, wall straightness, elevator access, and after-hours mall work

Because the cabinetry and the display fixtures come out of the same factory, finishes, reveals, and lighting details line up on site instead of being negotiated between two suppliers.

FAQ

Common questions about custom millwork in Toronto

What does millwork mean for a commercial project?

In Canadian commercial construction, millwork means the built-in woodwork and casework in a space: reception desks, counters, cabinetry, shelving, panelling, and bars. It is fabricated in a shop to your drawings, then installed on site, as opposed to furniture you buy off a floor.

How much does custom millwork cost in Toronto?

Commercial millwork is usually quoted by the linear foot and by finish. A laminate back-of-house cabinet run, a painted MDF reception desk, and a veneer-and-stone service counter can differ by several times for the same length. We quote each element separately so you can see where the money is going before committing.

How long does custom millwork take?

For a typical store or restaurant package, plan on about one to two weeks for drawings and approvals, three to five weeks in production, and a few days on site for installation. Stone tops, specialty veneers, and long counters can add time, and rush schedules can sometimes be arranged.

Do you do millwork only, or the whole renovation?

Both. Many clients order millwork alone and have their own contractor install around it. Others hand us the full fit-out, in which case the millwork is quoted alongside demolition, electrical, flooring, painting, and signage on our store renovation service.

Which areas do you cover?

Our installation crews work out of the Markham office and cover Toronto, Markham, Scarborough, Mississauga, Vaughan, and Richmond Hill. Other parts of the Greater Toronto Area can be quoted on request.

Can you match existing millwork in our space?

Usually yes. Send photos and, if you have them, the original finish codes. Where the exact laminate or veneer has been discontinued, we propose the closest current match and produce a sample for approval before production starts.

Send drawings, or just photos and dimensions

A floor plan, a few site photos, rough dimensions, and the finish direction are enough for a first number. If you already have an architect's millwork package, send it and we will quote from the drawings.
