Storage problems we solve in Schaumburg kitchens
We are carpenters and installers, not a catalog. For Schaumburg homeowners that means measured organizers built to your cabinet openings, pantry shelving at depths that make sense for cans and boxes, and benches built into the wall where a table used to wobble.
Spices, oils and baking sheets with no home
We use narrow gaps and the cabinet over the oven for things that don't stack well, like sheet pans, lids and bottles.
Pull-Out Shelves & Cabinet Organizers →Wasted space above and between cabinets
Empty space over the uppers collects dust. Stacked cabinets to the ceiling or a built-in wall unit turn it into storage for seasonal items.
Custom Kitchen Cabinets →Kitchen cabinets that simply don't fit your stuff
Sometimes organizers can't fix a cabinet that is the wrong size. We can modify boxes, raise uppers or build a custom section where it matters.
Kitchen Cabinet Modification →No place for the family to sit
Breakfast nooks and bay windows often sit empty. A banquette with a table turns them into the spot where everyone eats.
Built-In Breakfast Nook & Banquette →Pantry that overflows onto the counter
When cereal boxes and paper towels live on the counter, the kitchen is short on pantry. A tall pantry cabinet or a converted closet gives food its own place.
Pantry Design & Installation →Wire shelving sagging under food
When the pantry shelves bow and things slip through the wires, it's time for solid shelving anchored into studs.
Pantry Design & Installation →Trash can taking up floor space
A bin standing next to the counter is in everyone's way. A pull-out trash and recycling unit fits inside a base cabinet, often near the sink.

This one is a two-story colonial from the 1990s near Town Square. Before: honey-oak cathedral raised-panel cabinets with worn finish near the handles, brass knobs and almond laminate with a backsplash lip. The reason for the call: deep cabinets nobody could reach into. After: roll-out shelves in the base cabinets, a pull-out trash unit and a pantry wall, with the counters cleared. The job covered roll-out shelves and pull-outs, inserts and dividers, plus built-in banquette seating.

AfterItasca kitchen, 1990s two-story colonial: kitchen storage & pantry solutions
A 1990s two-story colonial near Nordic Park, a typical kitchen for Itasca. What we started with: white thermofoil cabinets peeling at the edges, oak trim and white ceramic tile with dark stained grout lines. The main complaint was counters buried under things that had no cabinet space. The result: roll-out shelves in the base cabinets, a pull-out trash unit and a pantry wall, with the counters cleared. On site this meant storage walk-through, inserts and dividers, plus pantry closet and walk-in shelving.

Kitchen Storage & Pantry Solutions questions from Schaumburg homeowners
What storage fits a small condo kitchen?
Roll-outs in every base cabinet, a slim pull-out beside the range and a tall pantry cabinet usually add the most without changing the layout.
Can you add storage without replacing the cabinets?
Yes, that's most of our storage work. We only suggest modifying or adding cabinets when inserts can't fix the problem.
Should I get pull-outs or a new pantry first?
If food is the problem, start with the pantry. If cookware and supplies are the problem, start with the base cabinets.
Do you match the existing cabinet finish?
Wood roll-outs are finished clear or to suit the interior; visible pieces like banquettes and pantry doors are matched as closely as we can.
Can you add more storage to an older kitchen?
Yes. Older cabinets often take roll-outs well, and a nearby closet or nook can become a pantry.
Can you do storage project in a Schaumburg condo?
Associations usually set rules for work hours, elevators, deliveries and insurance, and many require approval for plumbing, electrical or structural changes. We provide the certificate of insurance and follow the building's rules.
Does storage project need a Schaumburg building permit, and who files it?
Permits go through Community Development Department, Permitting Division (Permit Services), phone (847) 923-4420. When your scope needs one, we prepare the application and schedule the inspections.
Schaumburg contractor registration: do kitchen contractors need it?
Contractors must register with the Village; out-of-town contractor license $125/year (includes $10 Schaumburg Business Association fee), runs through Dec 31. We take care of that before work starts.
Do you work in my part of Schaumburg?
Yes. Our crews work across Schaumburg, including Weathersfield, International Village, Woodfield area, Olde Schaumburg Centre — ZIP 60193, 60173, 60194, 60195 — and nearby Roselle, Hoffman Estates, Hanover Park.
