My wife and I recently purchased our first home back in 2006 that was in desperate need of new kitchen cabinetry. The space was small and awkwardly laid out. Having plenty of design experience, I sketched a design that we felt would be the most functional layout for the space we had. With copies in hand we searched for a company that would help us with our quest for the perfect kitchen. We checked well over a dozen of the best known kitchen companies in the Toronto area before we stumbled onto Lido Cabinets. We were amazed at the differences in quality and pricing between companies, and how in some cases the poorest quality cabinets seemed to be the most expensive. It seemed Lido Cabinets had the perfect fit. They had the ability to provide us with a custom kitchen at a fair price without the nonsense of trying to gouge us for petty things such as stain colour choice. The business is family owned and operated and we liked that personal touch that only a family business seems to be able to provide. Sylvanna, the project co-ordinator, helped us through the finer details of the project such as the valance and crown molding choices and made the necessary adjustments to the design so as to ensure the integrity of the design was not compromised. The service was courteous and friendly, and although we were faced with some installation issues that were to be expected with a house of this age and a project of this type, Lido made sure they did not cut corners, and finished the job right. Overall, the quality of their work and the knowledge of their trade is what will transcend, and there is no question we would recommend Lido to anyone who is interested in a quality product for their money. We wish them all the best success!

I've been frequenting Habitat for Humanity Restores all over the GTA since I purchased my home 3 years ago. It's a great place to find those one of a kind items that add character to any home renovation project and at a fraction of the cost that you would find in the posh reclaim stores. I've purchased a number of items here including, 2 fireplace mantles (one of which I am converting into a liquor cabinet and bar shelf unit), a solid paneled bathroom door for my bathroom reno, stair spindels, and vintage leaded glass door cabinets. These were all what I like to call "feel good" purchases, because not only did I save money, I also know that I'm helping to keep building materials out of landfills and most importantly I'm helping to shelter others. I've also donated plenty of building materials such as doors and electriacl fixtures for someone else to enjoy. I guess what I'm saying is, it's a great store with a great concept and everyone should check it out. I recommend it to everyone I know.
