Custom island construction
A kitchen island does more than add counter space—it transforms how your kitchen functions. Whether you need prep area, casual seating, appliance integration, or additional storage, a properly designed island becomes the working center of your kitchen. The challenge is building an island that fits your specific space, workflow, and style rather than settling for a stock unit.
Custom island construction involves coordinating multiple trades. If you want a sink or dishwasher, we route drain and supply lines through the floor—which means accessing the space below and properly venting the drain. Electrical for outlets, cooktops, or integrated lighting requires dedicated circuits. The cabinetry itself must be precisely built to your dimensions, with countertop overhangs calculated for seating depth and structural support.
The finished island integrates everything you need in exactly the footprint that works for your kitchen. Outlets where you'll actually use them, storage configured for your cookware, countertop height and material matched to your cooking style. It's purpose-built furniture that happens to contain plumbing and electrical.
