"This kitchen is the heart of our home - it's beautiful!"

Mona Reeves of Chester Basin describes a house
as a collection of empty rooms
"The cabinets and finish work is what makes it a home."

Mona Reeves and her partner Gene Seaboyer couldn't be happier with Charles Lantz Cabinetry - both Charles and his on-their-job builders:Roy Parsons, Dana Tanner, Richard Hirtle and Trevor Creaser.

"The thing about Charles," Mona says, "he cares about our project. He took the time to make it right for us. He's innovative, creative."

The couple decided to go with CLC after speaking to other clients of Charles. "We didn't want the same thing, but it was obvious he's very, very capable.We love the work he did - he's definitely client focused."

Gene takes up the tribute:"The crew was fabulous - nothing was too much trouble. They took the time to answer our questions. Every night everything was left spotless. He has really great people working for him."

In the kitchen:a lined firewood drawer; a pull out bin for flours; and spices-in-hiding:Charles Lantz Cabinetry is known for their eye to detail.

Ceiling-high cabinets to house rarely used items, his-and-her cabinets facing his-and-her sinks, a perfectly sized CD tower tucked into a fabulous entertainment centre; a hidden ironing board in the laundry room. Little things add up to a very happy client.
