When we were planning our renovation, we were so impressed by the workmanship that we saw on another project where Wesley Ellen was the cabinet/closet/bookshelf maker and designer. We had a general outline of what we wanted to do, and contacted Ron from Wesley Ellen who was able to provide us with drawings from several angles as well as recommendations on how some areas might be improved both in appearance and efficiency. Ron's professionalism and quality did not disappoint and his gentle nature made him a dream to work with. We were living in our home during the renovation which included the full kitchen/pantry, en-suite and walk in closet, so there is a lot of personal interaction. The quality of workmanship and the quality of the people around you during the upheaval is very important. I recommend Wesley Ellen without any hesitation.

Everyone loves our kitchen, but none more than my husband and I love it. We love cooking in the kitchen, everyone does, but we also just like looking at it, the warmth of the colors and the wonderment of well made cabinetry and woodwork.
Wesley Ellen Design and Millwork (WEDM) designed and built the cabinetry for our kitchen. The cabinetry is exquisite, well constructed, beautifully detailed and meticulously measured to ensure a perfect, seamless, fit with the appliances and counters. We used two different woods, douglas fir and beechwood that was stained perfectly to our specifications. We used a local high-end trim shop to install the cabinetry. They have done hundreds of kitchen installs and yet they said to me “ you got your money’s worth as these are the best built cabinets we have ever installed”. I had looked at several showrooms for cabinetry but something was just off with the cabinets. They did not seem well made, but factory made even though they were described as ‘custom’ and with ‘custom’ prices. With WEDM my contractor and I dealt with the owner, Ron Issak, not a poorly trained salesman. Perhaps that is why there were no issues on the install, no mismeasurements, no missed items, which led no delays on the install. He even delivered the cabinets himself. And, the price I paid for the cabinets was less than the ‘custom’ showroom cabinets. We have no custom cabinet makers in Annapolis, and most contractors have their preferred re-sellers. I was lucky to find WEDM through HOUZZ – I loved the work. The quality and end result. If you want great value and beautiful craftmanship, I highly recommend WEDM.

An interior designer friend recommended them.
Ron and his team worked with our architect/designer to create all the millwork for our full dream-home renovation in West Vancouver. For the kitchen, a custom stain greatly enhanced the end result. Their pricing was extremely fair for top quality work and it all came in on time and on budget. That is music to a homeowners ears when the budget is tight and the wish list is long and all about quality. More than 5 years on and they still look beautiful. I would highly recommend the Wesley Ellen group of craftsmen.

My husband's family gave us those vintage 1950's table and recently refurbished chairs that we cherish, and we wanted to match them with a new designed kitchen that would go with the space.
We looked around for a while and chose Wesley Ellen Design & Millwork because what we saw on their website at the time and what we experienced during our first interview with them convinced us that they had the skills and the tools to make what we dreamt of within the limits of our budget.
Our kitchen, as our house, is simple but it fulfills our needs. Both Ron and Ellen were very helpful in advising us, supporting our ideas, perfecting our plans as well as answering our questions and solving little issues afterwards. They could also supply the stove and fridge that I never thought even existed. These appliances reminded me of the ones we had where I grew up in Montreal. Nothing is totally perfect in our world we live in but our kitchen is for us a little haven of peace where we can cook, eat and spend time socializing with family and friends in an authentic handmade décor with the smell of fresh wood when we open the doors and drawers of the cupboards. We are very grateful to Ron and Ellen for that!

We are absolutely thrilled with our Wesley Ellen designed and built kitchen!
We would not hesitate to enthusiastically recommend Wesley Ellen to anyone that wants the ultimate in craftsman made custom cabinets!
When it came time to find a cabinet maker to build the kitchen in our extensively renovated sea-side cottage on Bowen Island, we wanted a true craftsman that was going to pay attention to every detail, and ensure that only the best quality materials and workmanship went into our cabinets. From our first meeting with Ron and Marylyn, we knew we had found our perfect choice!
From the finely mitred crown moulding, flawlessly finished v-groove side panelling, furniture quality legs and frames, down to the dovetailed drawers and perfectly inset doors and hinges, we could not be any happier with the finished product. Our guests have all commented on how perfectly the kitchen fits with the rest of the cottage.
We must commend Wesley Ellen for going above and beyond in meeting the challenges involved with this project, including working with the irregular angles of the the walls, ceilings and floors. Not to mention access to our cliffside cottage down a steep 4×4 gravel road made getting the cabinets and equipment an extra challenge. This also included delivering our awesome retro buttercup yellow Northstar fridge – a focal point of the kitchen!
