Cutting Edge Cabinets & Millwork

What Cutting Edge Cabinets & Millwork does

Cutting Edge Cabinets & Millwork is a privately held LLC based in North Charleston, South Carolina that designs, builds, and installs handcrafted custom cabinetry, millwork, built-ins, and furniture for residential clients. The company was founded in 2013 by Steven Chartrand, who brings a multi-decade career in woodworking rooted in his father Julian Chartrand's firm CAM Inc., and operates as a partnership with Parker Graham (Bud), Chartrand's father-in-law, who joined in 2014. The firm maintains a single production shop at 7187 Bryhawke Circle Unit 300 and explicitly markets that all projects are hand-built by professional craftsmen with no middlemen and no entry-level employees on the build team.

The core product offering spans three lines: Custom Cabinetry (kitchens and bathrooms), Millwork (windows, doors, staircases for fine homes), and Custom Furniture & Built-ins (bookcases, entertainment centers, beds, consoles, and specialty items in species including Brazilian Cherry, Maple, and Pecky Cypress). Production uses PureBond Hardwood Plywood as a substrate, raw hardwoods for visible surfaces, and branded hardware from Salice, Blum, Accuride, and Knape&Vogt. Finishing options include natural, stained, glazed, or painted finishes, and the firm offers sustainable earth-friendly materials and paint alternatives.

The business model is direct-to-consumer and project-based: each engagement is custom-quoted based on materials, design complexity, size, and finishing options, with pricing not publicly disclosed. The firm works either directly with the homeowner or in collaboration with the customer's selected architect, interior designer, or qualified contractor. Distribution is regional, concentrated in the Charleston area with a stated Southeast USA service scope, and customer acquisition relies on a website portfolio and a Facebook page showcasing completed named projects rather than paid marketing channels. No app, API, software platform, or AI/ML capabilities are documented; the firm is a traditional custom woodworking operation.
