Terrible company, even worse customer service!
Does not do good work at all and I feel bad for future customer thinking about using this company. My wife and I tried to support local but will never use this company again. The material is cheap, the planning is laughable with a huge staff turnover rate. Sadly, after using this company, I had to hire another company to redo a lot of the work. Buyer beware!

I have never left a review before but in this case felt compelled.
-best advice: do not accept a discount for providing a 90% deposit - I should have known better
-disorganized scheduling (did not show after I drove 2.5 hours to meet them, several rebookings)
-huge gaps between installation appointments, left materials and mess everywhere
-cabinets were decent quality
-kick plate and valance installation laughable. Mouldings have exposed nail heads.
-rude, unprofessional staff
-had to pay someone else to fix mistakes and to supply the countertops
-etc etc etc
ADDITIONAL: In response to the Chaulk's rebuttal, I would just like to add that yes, we requested to have the dates bumped ONE time due to our flooring installation not being completed but it was only ONCE - Chaulk changed the dates 4-5 times (in the end Chaulk informed us that whether or not the flooring was in was mutually exclusive to them doing their work anyway). They were easily able to gain access as they had the combo to our lockbox. We completed a full renovation in under 100 days with exceptional trades people, except for Chaulk, our original flooring installer and one other. We successfully dealt with approximately 12 other contractors, all of which were success stories (and several of those warned us about Chaulk). We did want them to do our countertop as it was in our contract and they refused, as they pointed out in their rebuttal - what kind of company refuses to complete their job? I'm not sure how I was trying to "make more money", Chaulk had my 90% deposit. We simply wanted the job done as promised. I am not the only person to leave a review like this.
John contracted us to do a custom kitchen for his cottage and he did this prior to having possession of the property. The installation was scheduled and we were on time. He bumped the date as his place was not ready for the install. Once we arrived at on the site on the new day he requested, we found out that his flooring contractor quit halfway through the project??? We had to reschedule and find a new date. Once he hired a new contractor, we attempted to install and the we were unable to get in as there was no one there. John then proceeded to threaten our staff and company if we didn't show up right away! This was in vioation of our practises and will not subject our employees to the abuse. All delays were created by the client by site not being ready and changes through the project, and then they tried blame solely on us. We fullfilled all obligations in full and on time. The client after all this wanted us to still do a countertop for them and We refused and refunded money right away. This matter was a deliberate way for the client to make more money on the project and get extras for nothing.
Beware of this client if you ever come across, there is a pattern with his trades

Do Not trust this company to follow through on their promises.
We did a beautiful custom kitchen for matthew through a contractor. The kitchen was completed in full and on time. This comment was for a refferral fee that was negotiated and that was fullfilled. After several attempts to contact Matthew, we finally got him the refferal item of a microwave.

Quality of work was acceptable. Installation was never fully completed. Repeated attempts at communication were unsuccessful.
Laurie contracted us to do a kitchen custom from material off her property. This kitchen was complete. a year later she wanted us to make another cabinet and dropped her material off. we priced it and she never got back to us about proceeding. almost 2 years later she said not to worry and she picked up her material(we actually stored it for her).
