stolen property including TVs, VCRs, computers, and several long barreled

says Lyn, who has been in the cabinetry busi-
ness for over ten years. Having everything
close at hand means Lyn can monitor quality
from start to finish,

“Customer satisfaction is para-
mount for us. In fact, our cabinet-
maker, is right next door to our
showroom. That means our cus-
tomers are able to meet with the
master cabinetmaker and see where
the cabinets are being made. We
also work with a local renovation
team that has an excellent: repura-
tion on the North Shore.”

Customers can choose from a wide

selection of maple, oak, birch, hem-

lock, fir and knotty pine. And no

kitchen is too small for Applecress

Kitchens, “Our cabinets are custom

from the smallest kitchen to the largest. We
also produce vanities and Custom Mill work,
such as entertainment units.”

If happy customers are any indication, Lyn's
approach is definitely working. “Pm very

there, they were there.”

Applecross Kitchens is named after a smail town in
Wester Ross, Scotland. In Gaelic, it is known to as

“A’Chomraich — The Sanctuary.”

Everyone is invited to come and visit the new
showroom. Lyn will be happy to give you a free
estimate and provide advice on colours and
accessories,
