Gavin Rae was an excellent choice as our Kitchen design. He listened to us and worked with us to provide a kitchen renovation that was more than we could have dreamed of. He was excellent with suggestions when we we not sure and guided us when we were going off track. We have received many compliments on our kitchen renovation and many have stated it now looks like a model home. Gavin is top rate and his crew and admin at legacy are great to. If I can given them more stars I would. The before for and after pictures are unbelievable. Gavin worked within our budget and was there when we needed him. I highly recommend him.

Gavin Rae was the kitchen designer that we worked with at Legacy Kitchens. Gavin was a pleasure to work with and was able to translate our vision for the kitchen into reality. We were very pleased with the final outcome of the project.

We designed our kitchen with Gavin, he listens to your needs and he has great ideas. Our kitchen is very contemporary and the best that we have seen. We love our kitchen.

Gavin was wonderful to work with. He recognized my desire to have an elegant yet inviting and functional kitchen. I had a design in mind and Gavin was able to take that design and make improvements and suggestions that helped to create a dream kitchen. The cabinetry turned out to be beautiful as well as functional. I would highly recommend Gavin as a kitchen designer - if you have your own ideas he will help you to make your dream kitchen a reality. If you need a complete concept, Gavin is experienced and has a great eye for detail. I appreciated his willingness and insistence on making sure the smallest detail was not overlooked and I felt very comfortable asking questions and Gavin always had an answer. I also appreciated that he would give an honest opinion - so many designers only tell you what they think you want to hear. Legacy Kitchens supplied and installed and serviced our cabinetry throughout our home that included entertainment built-ins, office, bar and closet cabinetry and ensuite vanities - Gavin was at the helm and I couldn't have been more satisfied. I spoke with two other kitchen designers previous to Gavin but as soon as we sat down and he asked me what I had envisioned I knew he was going to be the person that would make this project spectacular. I really can't express how very pleased we were from start to finish with all facets of Legacy Kitchens and Gavin was the best professional for the job. Many Thanks.

The general contractor we hired to build our retirement home used Legacy Kitchens so we went with them. Our project was assigned to Gavin Rae. How fortunate for us in both cases. Here's the punch line: we enthusiastically recommend both Legacy and Gavin.
We found that the Legacy product line had enormous range and allowed us (with Gavin's guidance) to design a very high end kitchen, fitting for our Wolf / Sub Zero appliances at a price point considerably less than other cabinet makers at the top end of the market.
Gavin worked with us through several kitchen design iterations starting as our house design was coming together. He was patient, creative and occasionally called upon as an arbiter between my wife and I...a job he did skillfully and tactfully. Gavin also solved an intractable design problem we had been struggling with in an upstairs bathroom.
As our home was being framed and before our order was placed Gavin visited the site to make precise measurements and help us redesign an awkward issue that we had not foreseen (and he had no way of knowing) involving relative locations of a dormer window and our range hood. Later at the electrical and plumbing stage he visited again to help work out several further minor glitches. We always felt like Gavin owned our project till it was successfully implemented.
Our kitchen came with a few minor manufacturing or order errors which Legacy dealt with promptly and without fuss. Our installers Richard and Chantal were skilled, fast and careful. I'm a hobby wood worker so I pay attention to fit and finish detail, Richard and Chantal were definitely an A team.
Our project manager Annette coordinated very well with our general contractor; goods and people showed up when promised, funds were requested (and paid) on the schedule we had agreed to. A final service call by our second Richard was scheduled shortly after we moved in which addressed every outstanding issue.
As of this writing we been in our new home for about 6 weeks. The kitchen came together exactly as Gavin's renderings had shown, it works the way we had hoped, and the fit, finish and installation are everything that we expected. What more can we say?

Gavin was recommended to us from a friend. From the first moment we met Gavin, we knew that we had the right guy. Together, with his compassion and our vision our dream kitchen, bathroom and ensuite all came true. Is Legacy Kitchen a good company - YES - but only if your lucky enough to get Gavin as your designer.

Gavin was extremely helpful and incredibly professional, while designing our complete kitchen Reno!!!
From the moment we met at the design center, to creating the blueprints and right through the install until the final satisfaction inspection, Gavin was on top of all aspects of the project.
We were able to explain our vision and needs with Gavin then adding his expertise to assure us, that the design aspects would enhance the final project. He was correct!!! Gavins suggestions really added a level of detail that we never would have considered.
With any project there will be "small concerns", to us, it is how those concerns are dealt with that truly makes the difference. When our issue arose, Gavin and a site supervisor were on hand within the hour to problem solve and rectify the issue. That is customer service that is hard to find in the Reno industry, heck anywhere at all really...
If you want it done right, trust in Gavin and the entire team at Legacy!!!
I have to add that from Steve(owner) to Russ(service) this company treats people with the level of service that is, in our experience, unbeatable!

Our dealings with Gavin and Legacy were excellent. Gavin did a terrific job of designing our kitchen and we used his initial design with no changes. The cabinets were delivered on schedule and everything fit with a few minor adjustments. We have had many compliments and my wife consistently says "I love my kitchen".

Gavin was introduced to us when we stopped in to Legacy Kitchens, and we stayed with Legacy because of Gavin. He listened to our needs, created options for our space, then guided us through selecting cabinets. On site visits by Gavin during the install process demonstrated his commitment to our project. We couldn't be more pleased with the finished project, 4 years later, we're still getting compliments. We highly recommend Gavin.

I have had the pleasure with working with Gavin for the last 6 months. I am a client liaison with a small custom builder here in Calgary. We build in the Watermark area in Bearspaw, inner city and acreages.
While I have only known Gavin for a short period of time, I thoroughly enjoy working with him. His innovative designs and creativity are inspiring.
