We are shaping the future of Vancouver Island one cabinet at a time.
OUR STORY
Our founder Bob Philipchalk spent his days’ woodworking with his father, a cabinet maker, learning about the cabinetry trade. In the 1960s, he had a vision. He started a small cabinetry company that has grown over the years to become Harbour City Kitchens.
Today, Bob’s son Tim, along with business partner Craig Bryden proudly own and run HCK, a fourth-generation cabinetry family business. Their pride and integrity show through in so many ways; how they treat their staff, time spent teaching and improving on ideas, constant research and investment in innovation, and their commitment to care and quality control, no matter the size of the job.
What began as a vision, now extends to the beautiful spaces we create for our clients by bringing your ideas and dreams to life. The Team at HCK are family and share in the family vision; we value our clients and love the work that we do. All this makes Harbour City Kitchens an extraordinary place to work.
