“Be risky, Be bold and never be the same.” – Designer Chantal Carter

Chantal started with Kitchens Etc. in 2011. She welcomes customers and gives them a tour of our exclusive showroom, explaining the features and benefits of each product. Chantal listens to her customers and prepares a “Kitchen Design Needs Analysis” that helps determine a customers lifestyle and personality to create a design that best suites the clients taste.

“The biggest problem customers have is they feel their space is just to small and is in possible to make any better. This is actually not the case, it does not mater how small or large your space is, in the end it is all about the layout and how functional your storage is. That’s where I come in to help clients solves these problems.” Chantal Says

In 2009, Chantal graduated as an Interior Designer from Sheridan College, Oakville, Ontario. Chantal has worked in the kitchen design industry for the past 5 years and brings a creative edge to the Kitchens Etc. team. She is also a proud member of NKBA, National Kitchen & Bath Association.

Before starting and renovation take the time to do research and bring in pictures of designs you have seen and love, this will help me better understand your style and taste. Try our “Kitchen Ideas Style File” to get you started.
