Custom Kitchen Cabinets in Petaluma

Cabinet boxes for Petaluma projects are typically constructed from ¾-inch plywood, laminated board, or MDF — we offer cabinet boxes made from high-quality laminated board and plywood. Petaluma's architectural range — 19th-century Victorian and Italianate homes near the historic riverfront, farmhouses on the rural east side, mid-century ranches throughout the Westside, and newer hillside builds — benefits from the versatility of plywood, laminated board, and MDF across very different construction contexts. All panels provide a smooth, durable surface that resists everyday wear and is easy to maintain, making them a practical choice for modern kitchens. We use press-in (dowel) hinges, which prevent screws from loosening over time and significantly extend the lifespan of the kitchen. We edge-band every cabinet component on all sides to fully protect it from moisture. This not only prevents chips and damage at the corners but also ensures a flawless, high-end finish that looks truly professional. Back panels are ¾-inch plywood or laminated board.

Our standard frameless, full-overlay construction produces a clean contemporary look where each door covers the entire cabinet face with no visible frame. For Petaluma homeowners with Victorian or Italianate homes near the historic downtown, farmhouse-style properties on the east side, mid-century Westside ranches, or newer builds in the east Petaluma hills, we also build face-frame cabinets with inset or partial-overlay doors to complement your home's existing architecture.

Shaker-style doors are the most popular choice among our Petaluma clients — a versatile profile that suits Victorian renovations, farmhouse kitchens, and updated ranches alike. Flat-panel slab suits fully contemporary renovations in the newer hillside homes; raised-panel suits more traditional Victorian and Italianate interiors near the downtown. We also build glass-front options for display areas. Materials range from solid hardwood (white oak, walnut, maple) to MDF for smooth painted finishes.

For paint, we apply multiple coats with sanding between layers for a furniture-quality surface. Warm whites, sage green, and natural wood tones are all popular in Petaluma — finishes that reflect the North Bay's agricultural and historic character. We can match existing trim, flooring, or architectural details throughout your home.

Soft-close hinges come standard on every project — they prevent door slamming and reduce wear on the cabinet box over time. Undermount drawer slides with soft-close mechanisms handle heavy loads and glide smoothly at full extension, which matters when you're reaching for pots or pantry items daily.

We install pullout shelves, lazy Susans, tray dividers, and drawer organizers throughout the kitchen. For Petaluma farmhouses and larger properties, we design walk-in pantries, wine storage, and appliance garages as part of the kitchen cabinet design scope. All hardware comes from Blum, Hettich, and Salice — European manufacturers selected for reliability and precision.
