Custom Wood Furniture, Built Around Your Home Design

A cabinet should do more than fill a wall. Think about the items you reach for every day, the storage you are missing, and the space you need to move comfortably. Those details give a custom design its purpose.

Cream City Cabinets designs and builds custom cabinetry and wood furniture for homes in Waukesha and Greater Milwaukee. Our in-house woodworkers plan each piece around your room, from its dimensions and construction to the finish you see every day.

Compare wood species, paint colors, and finishes that complement your existing decor or create a new look. If a standard cabinet line may suit your layout, explore our stock cabinets as well. Planning the whole room? Coordinate your cabinetry with our countertop options.

Wood Crafting Lays in the Details

Our woodworking extends beyond cabinets. A sculpted table base, a shaped handrail, or a carefully fitted drawer brings a different set of details to the workbench.

Our in-house carpenters handle design, material preparation, and construction with attention to fit and finish. Bring your ideas, along with the dimensions and practical requirements of the piece, so we can discuss how to build it for your home.

    I am a remodeler and have purchased many cabinets and I must say Cream city has some of the nicest quality for the money.Nadia is so great to work with , she has so many great ideas for even the most difficult layouts. She loves what she does and pays attention to every detail. Another great thing about Cream City Cabinets is that they can get the cabinets usually within a week, which the big box stores are around six weeks or better , and you are supporting a local business. Give Cream City a try you will not be disappointed.

    I want to thank the people at Cream City Cabinets. The cabinets are very well built and the installer is a perfectionist. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a new look in there kitchen, bath or laundry rooms. They gave us a new kitchen in a older home that was quite a challenge to work with. The kitchen is now almost a work of art. Great people, great work and on time all the time.

    We recently used Cream City to provide the vanity for our bath remodel. The cabinets are very nice quality and were very price competitive, and they were available for install much quicker than other suppliers we considered. Nadia was great to work with; very pleasant and helpful, including making the cabinet choices and working with the countertop provided. We would definitely use them again.

    I moved into a severely outdated home over a year ago and knew I needed to remodel the kitchen. After researching and receiving a few quotes, a friend of mine recommended Cream City Cabinets. I let the staff at Cream City know I was on a limited budget (not a large one either) and they assured me I was in the right place! I worked with Ivo at the store to finalize my project and it began and ended as scheduled. Ivo was awesome and kept me informed of what would be happening at my house each week. My “kitchen remodel” became a “house remodel”, since walls came down, hardwood flooring replaced the entire living area, new windows were created, plumbing was rerouted, and new electrical was installed. It was so nice to only work with one company that could do everything, rather than having to hire separate plumbers, electricians, etc. The men were on sight daily and I would be remiss if I didn’t call out how impressed I was with Rainer. Besides being one of the kindest people I’ve ever known, Rainer is incredibly hard working and very skilled. Rainer knew I wanted ceiling beams and went out of his way to make them for me. The crown molding, as well, is testimony to his exceptional skills. (He also has to be a saint to have tolerated my two large dogs hanging out with him every day!) The end result is simply breathtaking! This remodel bears no resemblance to the unattractive house 8 weeks earlier. It really deserves it’s own page, since the transformation is remarkable! I couldn’t be more pleased with Cream City Cabinets and have never recommended anyone more highly!

    Such a wonderful company. I wish all companies were like this. I went in with a small budget and Nadia said “Oh, if course we can do something beautiful for that price!” and they ARE doing a BEAUTIFUL kitchen in our home. They have significantly better prices than the chain stores, the and MUCH better than the kitchen people I found on Marketplace. Nadia is so kind and patient. She makes you feel like you are her most important customer and she honestly wants to help you save money. I am beyond thrilled with the entire process after having been discouraged by other companies I had checked with. She is very talented at designing as well. I couldn’t imagine making the kitchen I had into what they are building! But they did it! She suggested moving the refrigerator and it made our kitchen look twice as big, open and airy. I also love that they don’t use a bunch of subcontractors. Rainer and Cory do the work and they do it beautifully. They are very attentive to detail, and you can really see the craftsmanship in their work. They go above and beyond making sure you are happy with everything. We’ve had a lot of remodeling and work done on our home this past year. THIS is the only company out of them all (three other contractors/companies) that I felt was really dealing with me honestly, and not trying to take advantage of us. My only wish would be that they would offer ALL home remodeling because it’s so nice to finally have faith in a company and their crew.

    Cream City Cabinets was highly recommended to us by a general contractor and we are so glad we decided to stop in and check their showroom out before remodeling our kitchen. We were under a tight deadline and they were able to generate their free design quickly! Their cabinets and quartz countertops are top notch at a very affordable price. I would highly recommend Cream City Cabinets for their good service, quality product, and very affordable prices!

FAQ: Questions About Our Custom Cabinets Answered by the Pros

What is the difference between custom and stock cabinets?

Stock cabinets come in a defined range of sizes, styles, and finishes. Custom cabinetry is planned around the dimensions, storage needs, and appearance of your project. A stock line may suit a straightforward layout, while custom work gives you more flexibility for unusual spaces or a specific design. We can help you compare the options before deciding.

Can you build cabinets for bathrooms, closets, and other rooms?

Yes. Our custom work includes cabinetry for kitchens, bathrooms, closets, and storage spaces, along with wood furniture and decorative woodwork. Bring photos and rough dimensions so we can discuss how you use the room and what you want the finished piece to do.

Can new cabinetry match the wood or finish already in my home?

We can discuss wood species, paint colors, and finishes that complement your existing cabinetry or furniture. Bring a door, finish sample, or clear photos if available. Natural grain, age, and lighting can affect the result, so an exact match should be assessed rather than assumed.

What affects the price of custom cabinets?

The size and complexity of the project, cabinet construction, wood selection, finish, hardware, and interior storage details all affect the quote. Delivery and installation requirements also matter. Share a budget range and your priorities so we can discuss the choices before finalizing the design.

How long does a custom cabinet project take?

Timing depends on the design, materials, finish, production schedule, and installation requirements. We can discuss a project-specific schedule once the scope and selections are clear. Tell us about other renovation work or a target completion date when you first contact us.

Do you help with delivery and installation?

Yes. Cream City Cabinets offers cabinet delivery and installation services in Greater Milwaukee. Share the project address and the work you need so we can confirm scheduling and scope. Review any removal, plumbing, electrical work, or other preparation separately rather than assuming it is included.

What should I bring to a custom cabinet consultation?

Bring room photos, rough measurements, inspiration images, and a list of the storage problems you want to solve. Appliance dimensions, existing finish samples, and a budget range are helpful too. Rough measurements start the discussion; final dimensions and details need to be confirmed before fabrication.
