We supply and install custom joinery across the Shoalhaven, Jervis Bay, the Illawarra, the South Coast and the Southern Highlands, and in Canberra and the ACT. That takes in Huskisson, Nowra, Berry, Kiama, Gerringong, Ulladulla, Wollongong, Batemans Bay, Bowral and everywhere in between. Our workshop is based at 3/11 Erina Road, Huskisson.
We design, manufacture and install custom kitchens, bathroom vanities, walk-in and built-in wardrobes, reception desks, commercial fit outs and one-off custom cabinetry. Every piece is made in our Huskisson workshop using CNC technology and installed by our own team, so there is no handoff to a third party.
A typical custom kitchen takes 8 to 12 weeks from approved design to install. Smaller projects like a single vanity or built-in wardrobe can be quicker, while commercial fit outs and larger homes may run longer. We give you a realistic timeline at quote stage and lock in your install date once cabinet drawings are signed off.
Every project is priced on its design, materials and finishes, so there is no fixed price list for custom joinery. As a guide, bespoke kitchens generally start in the mid five-figure range, with vanities and built-in wardrobes typically more accessible. After an on-site measure-up we provide a detailed, itemised quote so there are no surprises.
Yes. Our CNC and design software produces accurate 3D renders so you can see exactly what your kitchen, vanity, wardrobe or commercial fit out will look like before a single panel is cut. What you sign off in the render is what we install, with no human error, no surprises.
Absolutely. Because we are builder-owned, we understand site programmes, scheduling and integration with other trades. We work regularly with builders, architects and interior designers right across our service area, and we are happy to liaise directly with your team on specifications, drawings and delivery dates.
Yes. We supply and install joinery for new builds and major renovations right across our service area. We can get involved at any stage (from early design input to fitting out completed cabinetry) and we coordinate timings directly with your builder.
Yes. Alongside private projects, we repair and replace damaged joinery and cabinetry for insurance jobs. We work with insurers, loss adjusters and builders to scope the work, quote accurately and restore the affected joinery to its original (or better) condition.
We work with premium board, solid timber, two-pack polyurethane, melamine, laminate, natural stone and engineered stone benchtops. Hardware is generally Blum or Hettich for soft-close drawers and hinges. We will guide you through the finish and hardware options that best suit your budget, lifestyle and aesthetic.
Yes. All our cabinetry comes with a structural warranty, and we pass on the manufacturer’s warranties for hardware, benchtops and finishes. As a licensed, builder-owned business we also stand behind our workmanship. If something is not right after installation, we come back and put it right.
In most cases, yes. We can closely match door profiles, colours and finishes, though an exact colour match depends on the original supplier and the age of the existing cabinetry. Send us a photograph and a few details and we will let you know what is achievable before you commit.
We are happy to take on smaller projects: a single vanity, a laundry, a built-in wardrobe, a bar cabinet, a reception desk or replacement doors. Custom joinery does not have to mean a whole-of-home job. Get in touch and we will let you know if it is something we can fit into the schedule.
Yes. Every piece of Ashbrook Kitchens and Joinery is manufactured locally in our Huskisson workshop on the NSW South Coast. We support Australian suppliers wherever possible for board, hardware and stone, and all of our installers are local tradespeople.
