Why Choose Custom Millwork vs. Stock?
Stock cabinets and prefab moulding may be convenient, but they can’t match the fit, finish, and longevity of custom-built millwork. With Markley, you get:
- Tailored Fit: Perfectly sized for your space—no gaps, fillers, or awkward angles.
- Premium Materials: We work with quality wood, plywood, and MDF based on your goals and budget.
- Design Freedom: Style, layout, and finish are all up to you. We bring your ideas to life.
- Lasting Quality: Built to endure daily use, moisture, and seasonal shifts—especially important in BC homes.
- Seamless Integration: Custom millwork blends in with your architecture rather than working against it.
What Impacts the Cost of Custom Millwork?
Custom doesn’t have to mean unaffordable; but it’s important to know the variables:
- Materials: Solid wood, MDF, or veneer? Each comes with different pricing and benefits.
- Project size: Linear feet, number of pieces, and custom sizing all affect cost.
- Complexity: Decorative mouldings and detailed joinery take more time.
- Finish type: Paint, stain, lacquer, or unfinished?
- Hardware: Soft-close drawers? Hidden hinges? These features add up.
Can I Paint or Finish My Millwork Later?
Yes. Many clients choose pre-finished millwork for convenience, while others prefer to paint or stain on-site to match other design elements. We’re happy to:
- Deliver pieces ready-to-paint or stain
- Pre-finish at the shop for quick installation
- Offer guidance on painting trim or cabinetry after install

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Millwork?
Millwork refers to any construction material made in a sawmill and built into a home. Common examples are wall and door trim. Unlike flooring and wood framing, millwork is typically more decorative than structural.
What's the Difference Between Casework and Millwork?
Millwork includes custom-made woodwork like doors, wall panelling, moulding, and trims. It serves both decorative and practical purposes. Custom Millwork is known for being higher-quality, one-of-a-kind, and more visually aesthetic. Casework, on the other hand, involves modular carpentry. Common casework products are box-shaped items like cabinets, storage boxes, and bookshelves. It’s typically cheaper but more generic, lower quality, and requires assembly on-site.
What’s an example of Millwork Design/What types of custom millwork services do you offer?
Custom Millwork adds depth and texture built right into the structure of your home. Some common examples of our millwork services include custom cabinetry, doors, bookcases, smooth railings, fireplace mantels, floating shelves, and stairs. These are all tailored to your needs and space.
Are Cabinets Considered Millwork?
Yes, cabinets are considered millwork. In fact, custom cabinetry is one of the most common forms of kitchen millwork and vanity millwork, often designed to match other wood features in a space.
How do you start a custom millwork project?
We begin with a collection of inspirational photos from you and have a walkthrough of your current space. We continue working closely with you to turn your ideas into reality, from design to finished product.
How long does a custom millwork project take?
Smaller projects can take 2–4 weeks from design to install. Larger or more intricate projects may take 6–8 weeks depending on scope, materials, and scheduling.
Can I paint millwork myself?
Absolutely. Just be sure to prep the surface (sand, clean, prime). We also offer professional painting and staining for a perfect finish.
