East Tamaki is not just an area we serve, it is where we are. Our workshop is at Unit 41, 19 Ormiston Road, and every kitchen we sell is built in it. If you want to see the board, the hardware and the edging before you commit, you can stand in front of them.

Manufacturing here and installing with our own crew is what removes the middleman markup. One contract, one invoice, and the people who build your kitchen are the people who fit it.

What we do in East Tamaki

Commercial and light-industrial fit-outs

East Tamaki is one of Auckland's biggest industrial areas, and a lot of what we build here is not a home kitchen at all: staff kitchens and breakout areas for warehouses and offices, reception joinery, and hard-wearing tearoom fit-outs. These get commercial-grade board, stainless benches where they belong, and a spec written to survive shift work.

Trade and wholesale supply

Builders, developers and property managers buy cabinetry from us at trade rates, either supply-only or supplied and installed. Being local means you can collect, drop in to check a detail, or have us deliver to a site the same morning.

Volume and multi-unit kitchens

We build kitchens in runs for townhouse developments and social-housing contracts, to a standard spec with coded quantities so every unit is identical and the pricing is predictable across the whole site.

Homes in Botany, Flat Bush and Ormiston

The residential streets around East Tamaki and out towards Botany, Flat Bush and Ormiston are mostly newer subdivision homes and townhouses with open-plan living. Those kitchens are less about knocking out walls and more about getting the island proportions, the storage and the benchtop material right.

Local context

East Tamaki is dominated by light industry. Warehouses, workshops, distribution and trade suppliers line Ormiston Road, Springs Road and Harris Road, and the businesses in them all need staff kitchens, tearooms and reception joinery that take heavy daily use. This is a different brief from a home kitchen: durability and cleanability beat everything, and downtime during a fit-out costs the client money, so the install has to be scheduled tightly.

The residential side sits around the edges and out towards Botany, Flat Bush and Ormiston, where the housing is largely 1990s onwards plus a heavy flow of recent townhouses. Those homes already have the open-plan footprint, so the work is in cabinetry, storage and benchtops rather than reconfiguration.

Having our workshop here changes what we can offer. Board, hardware and offcuts are on site rather than ordered in, a remake on a damaged panel is a same-week job rather than a three-week wait, and site deliveries anywhere in East Auckland are a short run. It is also why customers who want to see a finish in person rather than on a screen can just come in.

Frequently asked questions

Where exactly is your workshop?

Unit 41, 19 Ormiston Road, East Tamaki. Every kitchen we sell is manufactured there, and it is where our install crew works out of.

Can I visit and see the materials?

Yes. Give us a call first so someone is free to walk you through it, and you can see the board, door finishes, edging and hardware in person rather than judging a finish off a screen.

Do you fit out commercial staff kitchens and tearooms?

Yes, and it is a lot of what we do locally. Warehouses, offices and workshops around East Tamaki need kitchens built for heavy use, so we spec commercial-grade board, stainless where it earns its place, and schedule the install to keep your downtime short.

Do you supply cabinetry to builders without installing?

Yes. Supply-only at trade rates is available, and being local means you can collect from the workshop or have it delivered to site the same morning.

How fast can you turn a job around?

A firm quote comes back within 24 hours of a design. Because the cabinetry is made in our own workshop, we are not waiting on an importer, and most kitchens are installed in a single 5 to 7 day run.
