Our approach to building kitchens

For homeowners looking to modernise their kitchens and make their space truly their own, there are many options available. However, not all kitchens are created equal.

We pride ourselves on quality craftsmanship and premium materials, aiming for complete customer satisfaction with every renovation project across we do in Pembroke, Petawawa and across the Ottawa Valley. Many of our clients return after 10-15 years seeking to update their kitchens as their tastes evolve - a testament to both our enduring workmanship and customer relationships.

Quality and customer satisfaction have been our core value since we built our first kitchens over 42 years ago, and these principles continue to guide us today in the way we design and build our kitchens.

Humble beginnings

In 1984, Robert Wendt began crafting custom kitchens from his small workshop in Petawawa, Ontario. Building on his decade-long reputation for quality woodworking, word quickly spread throughout Petawawa and Pembroke. As our client base grew, we established strong partnerships with regional contractors and global suppliers who shared our commitment to trust, quality, and professional experience.

In 1999, Robert's son Mark joined the business (changing our name to Bob & Mark’s Custom Cabinets), bringing innovation through technology-driven solutions that enhanced our precision and capabilities. While embracing these advances, we maintained our core values in every home renovation project and client interaction.

Today, under Mark's leadership, we continue as a family-owned and operated business, with over 42 years of satisfied clients contributing to our legacy as one of the valley’s highest quality builders of kitchen cabinets and bathrooms.

Design, planning, manufacturing and installation

We build all of our kitchen and bathroom cabinets in-house at our Pembroke workshop, so we can ensure the quality meets our standards every time.

We'll help you design your dream kitchen. One that looks beautiful and works for your lifestyle, and the same team that designs your project will build and install it.

This ensures the highest quality from start to finish. From countertops to doors, hinges down to screws, we pay attention to every detail.

Every kitchen we design and build is crafted with skill and a passion for quality. That's what brings our clients back time and time again. Many return after 10 or 15 years when they're ready to upgrade or remodel.

As a family-owned cabinet maker in Pembroke serving the Ottawa Valley for over 42 years, tastes and trends may change, but the quality of our custom cabinetry remains stronger than ever.
