Custom Kitchens
Are you thinking about remodeling your kitchen or designing a new kitchen for your new custom home? Most kitchen remodeling contractors and custom home builders will help you with finding a good local cabinet company, and then help you accessorize your new kitchen with items out of a catalog.
At DuBois Builders we realize that creating a custom kitchen is so much more than that. Creating a great kitchen does involve starting out with a top quality cabinet maker, but why accessorize your new kitchen with items picked out of a catalog when you can just as easily have hand made one of a kind items. Items like custom range hoods, hand made cabinet knobs and pulls, hand made custom sinks, custom cabinet bases, and many more custom kitchen accessories that you just can not get out of a catalog.
The kitchen pictured to the right is a wonderful example of some of the great custom made feature that can be incorporated into any kitchen. This kitchen features some really nice high quality kitchen cabinets, but if you notice the kitchen cabinets are setting on hand made wrought iron bases that were created by Brian Hughes. Along with a custom wrought iron decorative piece around the edge of the range hood, and custom cabinet pulls. Brian is just one of many quality craftsman and artists that we have available to work with.
So if you are looking to remodel your kitchen in Chicago or maybe even looking for a custom home builder out in the suburbs like Naperville that can help you to build a one of a kind custom kitchen and your next home then please contact us. We will work with you to make your dream kitchen a reality!
Custom Range Hoods
Range hoods are an important part of any custom kitchen, and are usually one of the first things that catches peoples eyes when they walk into any kitchen. So why not consider having a hand made custom range hood build for you the next time you remodel your kitchen or build your new home.
Custom range hoods can be custom made in all shapes, styles, and finishes to compliment your new kitchen. Below are some of the more popular materials that range hoods are made out of.

Custom Sinks
Sinks are one of those things in a house that most people and most custom home builders think have to be ordered out of a catalog. This could not be farther from the truth. Over the years we have had custom made sinks built for many of our clients. Some of these hand made sinks were used in powder rooms, but the vast majority of them were installed in custom kitchens where they are used every day.

Butchers Block Island Counter Tops
Butchers block island counter tops are another special feature that we have had custom built for many of our clients. The finish on these counter tops depends on what the client is planning on using the counter for. For instance those clients that are planning on actually using the counter top for chopping up meat and vegetables then we will leave counter top natural and only apply a few coats of mineral oil to the wood. Otherwise the counter tops can be stained and a durable furniture finish applied.
