Our FAQs

Manufacturing typically takes 5–6 weeks for a custom kitchen, and 8–12 weeks or longer for larger, multi-space projects, depending on the materials and the size of the project. Design and approval come first, so the earlier we start, the sooner your project can be scheduled.

Every project starts with a discovery session at our showroom, where you meet your project representative and our design team and see and handle wood species, finishes and hardware in person. We then meet on site to measure and go through the exact details of your project, and prepare detailed drawings and 3D renderings of your custom kitchen or whole home for you to review and approve before anything is built.

Designing the project together, face to face, settles the details early and avoids many of the problems that can arise between design and manufacturing. You're part of every decision, so the finished cabinetry is what you had in mind.

All Netley Millwork cabinetry is designed and built in our 65,000 sq. ft. manufacturing facility near Petersfield, Manitoba. Our team of more than 25 skilled cabinet makers uses CNC machinery at each stage of manufacturing to build every project to its approved drawings, and high-end finishing equipment for a smooth, consistent finish. Each piece is made from premium materials sourced from trusted suppliers and checked against our standards before it leaves the shop, so your cabinetry fits, looks and performs the way it was designed.

Proper installation is what lets you enjoy your cabinetry for years to come, so your project is installed by our dedicated installers, experienced professionals who work primarily with Netley Millwork. They know exactly how each cabinet was built, and they fit every piece to your approved drawings.

Laminate countertops are installed by our team at the same time as your cabinets are installed in your kitchen, while solid-surface countertops are installed by our suppliers.

Solid surface countertops are templated after the cabinets have been installed to ensure that the countertop is a perfect fit, and most installations take place 10 – 14 days after templating.

Granite and quartz countertops are low-maintenance, popular, and durable countertop options which typically last about 50 years and are heat, scratch, stain, and chemical resistant.

Quartz countertops are engineered from natural quartz, while granite is a natural stone. As a result, granite countertops are only available in limited colours, while quartz is available in a wide variety of shades and hues.

Granite is cold to touch, is resistant to high heat, and is the ideal surface for baking. Quartz, on the other hand, is less heat-resistant and not an ideal surface for baking or preparing meals.

We're based near Petersfield, Manitoba, and have completed projects throughout Manitoba, in the Kenora and Lake of the Woods area, and across Saskatchewan and Alberta. Wherever your project is, get in touch and we'll work with you to find the best way to make it happen.

As early as possible. Custom cabinetry is designed and built to order, and design and approval come before manufacturing begins, so it's best to start well before you need the cabinets. For new builds and major renovations, we recommend a discovery session while your plans are still being finalized. Bring your architect's or designer's drawings and your appliance specifications if you have them, so we can coordinate the cabinetry with your build schedule.

Every Netley project is backed by a limited 7-year warranty against defects in materials and workmanship, plus a limited lifetime warranty on cabinet hardware. If a defect appears, a qualified representative inspects it, and we repair or replace it. Claims go through your Netley representative. The warranty applies to the original purchaser and has limits, including for normal wood movement, finish wear, third-party products and damage from misuse or moisture.
