Custom Kitchen Cabinets Built for the Way You Live

The heart of every kitchen lies in its cabinetry — the structure that organizes your space, defines its character, and elevates your daily routines. At Bayside Builders Group, we craft custom kitchen cabinets that blend design precision with enduring craftsmanship. Every project begins with an understanding of how you use your kitchen — where you cook, gather, and store essentials — so that the final design feels effortless, intuitive, and completely tailored to your home.

Each cabinet is custom-built using premium hardwoods and modern construction techniques. Our work is a collaboration between design vision and technical expertise, ensuring that every door, drawer, and panel aligns perfectly with your home’s style and proportions. From transitional Shaker-style kitchens to sleek flat-panel European designs, our cabinetry delivers both form and function in equal measure.

Serving homeowners throughout Alameda, Oakland, Orinda, Berkeley, Piedmont, and surrounding East Bay neighborhoods, we handle every step — from design and material selection to fabrication and installation — with precision and professionalism.

A Design Process Centered Around You

Every kitchen tells a story. Our design process begins with listening to yours. We start by studying your kitchen’s architecture, layout, and light — then we explore how your family uses the space day-to-day. Do you need better organization, more storage, or a statement island that anchors the room? Together, we map out a plan that balances beauty, efficiency, and flow.

Once the layout is refined, our designers translate ideas into 3D renderings so you can see your new cabinetry come to life before the first board is cut. Every line, handle, and hinge is considered. Cabinet heights align with countertops and backsplashes, door styles complement flooring and lighting, and hardware is selected to enhance both comfort and design.

This detailed, hands-on approach ensures that your kitchen isn’t just renovated — it’s reimagined for how you actually live.

Craftsmanship You Can See and Feel

Quality begins with the materials we choose. Bayside Builders Group uses only premium-grade hardwoods and engineered panels designed for the Bay Area’s unique coastal climate. Our most popular species include maple, walnut, oak, and birch, each selected for its natural beauty, strength, and stability. We also work with MDF and plywood cores for structural integrity and perfectly smooth paint finishes.

Finishing is where the artistry shows. Cabinets can be painted, stained, or lacquered, depending on the desired tone and texture. A soft satin white can reflect natural light beautifully in smaller kitchens, while deep walnut stain adds depth and richness to open layouts. Our painters and finishers use controlled spray booths for consistent coverage and durability, ensuring that your cabinets retain their color and sheen for years to come.

Elegant Door Styles and Refined Hardware

The door design defines your kitchen’s personality. Some homeowners prefer the timeless appeal of Shaker doors, others lean toward the modern simplicity of slab fronts, or the traditional charm of raised panels with detailed edge profiles. For minimalist spaces, we offer frameless European cabinetry with hidden handles, flush finishes, and seamless joints.

Hardware plays an equally important role. Soft-close hinges and drawer slides create a quiet, refined experience. Pull-outs, spice racks, integrated lighting, and hidden outlets transform each cabinet into a functional feature. Every choice — from brushed nickel pulls to matte black handles — contributes to a kitchen that’s as inviting as it is efficient.

Storage Designed With Purpose

Custom cabinets make the most of every inch. We design pantries with adjustable pull-out shelving, corner swing-outs, and deep drawers for cookware and utensils. Islands can feature hidden drawers for linens and small appliances, while overhead cabinets can incorporate glass fronts or open shelving to display glassware and art pieces.

Our goal is to build cabinetry that supports your lifestyle — not just visually, but practically. You should never have to reach awkwardly, stack unnecessarily, or waste valuable space. Thoughtful cabinetry design ensures that every corner has a purpose, and every door opens to exactly what you need.

The Bayside Installation Standard

Cabinet installation is where technical skill meets artistry. Our carpenters and installers treat every project like custom furniture — aligning every seam, adjusting every hinge, and ensuring perfect plumb and level throughout. We use laser measurement tools and precision joinery techniques to guarantee tight, clean fits, especially in older East Bay homes where walls and floors may not be perfectly square.

Before completion, we walk through every cabinet with the homeowner to confirm alignment, functionality, and finish quality. The difference shows in the quiet operation of drawers, the smooth close of doors, and the seamless integration of trim and crown details.

Project Spotlight: Alameda Kitchen Remodel

In a recent project in Alameda’s East End, we updated an old galley kitchen. We turned it into a bright, open space with custom cabinets. The homeowners wanted a mix of warmth and modern style. We used soft white maple shaker cabinets and a walnut island base to anchor the room.

Each cabinet was designed for maximum function. We included deep drawers for cookware, full-extension pantry pull-outs, and hidden charging drawers for electronics. We added LED lights under the upper cabinets and brass hardware to match the home’s mid-century style. The result is a kitchen that feels larger, brighter, and truly personalized. It is now the heart of the home.
