    Built in fireplace mantle with cabinetry

    Mulligan Woodworking built and installed a wall unit for us consisting of a fireplace mantle with floor to ceiling cabinetry on either side. We are very happy with the finished result. We visited many contractors initially for quotes, and they were one of the few who provided an in house visit, detailed computer drawings, and a competitive price. They were always reachable by phone for questions, before and after the contract was signed. Based on pictures we provided and many in store sessions we designed the look we wanted. Michael and Kellye were very patient and helpful throughout this process. They even invited us to visit the workshop to see our in-progress cabinets to put our minds at ease. The installation was completed professionally and on time. We love our new wall unit, and have no reservations in recommending Mulligan Woodworking.

    Custom Bathroom Vanity and Medicine Cabinet

    Mulligan's designed, built and installed a custom bathroom vanity and medicine cabinet for us. Our bathroom is like most in older Toronto homes: cramped and poorly laid out. We wanted a vanity that would give us storage while working around the location of the toilet and stack. When Michael and Kellye came to do an estimate, Michael immediately made several clever suggestions that no one else I had approached to do the project had come up with. Kellye was very careful to make sure that they understood what our needs were and what we wanted. The resulting cabinetry is beautiful, well made and extremely functional. Michael did a fantastic job of matching the stain of the vanity with that of the existing bathroom door. He also went beyond the call of duty by helping us with the botched installation of the counter top by another company. Kellye cheerfully responded to our queries promptly and thoroughly. The installers were experienced, polite and tidy. Indeed, everyone at Mulligan's was unfailingly pleasant, punctual and professional and they are the only company I would consider for any woodworking project.

    builtin bookcase and window shutters

    We hired Mulligan woodworking after reading the reviews on this site. At the beginning we were fairly unsure of what we wanted in terms of a built in bookcase but had fairly clear ideas for the window shutters. We presented Mike and Kelly with some images but weren't sure how or if they could be executed for our space. In fact, however, Mike was able to explain how he could produce something very similar to the bookcase we wanted and we are very happy with it. I don't think Mike had ever made the type of shutters we wanted. When they were first hung we were very unhappy with the result, there were gaps between them, hinges weren't hung evenly etc. It was not what we would have wanted from a rather expensive custom job. Mike assured us that he would make us happy and in the end we are fairly pleased with the shutters though they are not perfect. If I were to use Mulligan again I would insist that Mike be present during the installation process as his installer was not the most considerate, leaving food and garbage around the house and not taking the utmost care to install the shutters correctly. While we did have some issues unfortunately in the end we are pretty happy with the result.

    Answer from pro:

    We are very sorry you feel this way. When you are referring to “when they were first hung” only 5 of the 9 windows were rough hung, and final adjustments were not yet done. When we finished, the spacing was as constant as an old house with refitted windows allows. There were several trades on site, to say that our installers were the ones that left a mess is a bit unfair. We met your deadline, and you are happy in the end. Thank you.

    Mantle, Custom Shelving, Desk, Removing of Existing Mantle

    Totally recommend MWL for any woodworking project! From the initial phases Kellye and Michael were very professional. Provide detailed written estimates and photo rendering. It was very clear that they had done similar projects in the past. They came up with creative solutions to beautifully deal with some strange aspects of the space. The installers were excellent craftsmen. The installation was quick and the clean up afterwards was great. Will not look elsewhere for further woodworking needs. Thanks MWL!

    Custom Designed Entertainment Centre

    The project started with a visit to our home by Kellye and Michael Mulligan. The process was very professional, sketches followed by computer designs. At their office we decided on design details with ease. The installation was completed on time and went without a hitch as planned, thanks to a top notch experienced installation crew.. Minor follow up was required and that was done quickly. We liked their work so much we had additonal custom work done in an another area of the room to tie into new cabinets. If you are looking for quality custom cabinets well priced and delightful local people to deal with, call Kellye and Michael.

    Custom pantry

    We had a small pantry in our kitchen that we wanted to remodel with pull-out shelves. We wanted to have a door that would match the wood and color of the kitchen cupboards we have. Mulligan came up with a solution that ended up exceeding our original expectations. The workmanship was of very high quality. I also appreciated that the two guys who installed the new pantry took also the time to fix some cupboard doors in the kitchen. It was a small touch that spoke volume of their professionalism. If I can have the slightest of criticism (constructive, I hope) to offer is that I would have liked a more detailed breakdown of the work but in the end, since the work exceeded expectations I can only give them my highest recommendation.

    Cabinetry

    I like this company a lot - often the true measure of a contractor is how they deal with problems. In my case there was an oversight in the paint finish; they fixed the problem quickly and without fuss. Kellye always answers the phone (which is a rare thing among contractors) and always strived to accommodate my own busy schedule. The guys themselves were friendly, competent and took the time to protect my house and furnishings before and after the job was complete. Highly recommended!

    Built-in Entertainment Unit / Shelves in Living Room

    Having just moved into a house featuring a living room with an odd layout, we decided to explore having the 16 foot back wall fitted with wall-to-wall built-ins. After a lot of research and a handful of quotes we comfortably chose Mulligan's. They were very helpful in working out the finer design details and delivered the project on budget against a very competitive quote, and even delivered the final installation a bit ahead of schedule. There was a high level of communication throughout the process and the day of the installation went very well. The large scale of this type of project virtually guarantees that the install will not be without some challenges, but the professionalism, experience and problem-solving ability of Michael and the installers led to a final product that we are thrilled with. We will undoubtedly use Mulligan's again for any future cabinetry projects. We highly recommend them! [We will post a picture once we've filled the shelves!]
