Arthur & Mount Forest's Trusted Kitchen Renovation Contractor
Arthur and Mount Forest are growing communities — and with that growth comes a wave of homeowners ready to upgrade kitchens that have never been properly renovated, update newer builds that were finished to builder-grade standard, or completely transform older properties that have been in the family for decades.
LUMA Build Design is a family-owned general contractor based in Fergus, serving Arthur, Mount Forest and the surrounding North Wellington County area as part of our established service territory for over 20 years. We renovate kitchens for homeowners in newer Arthur subdivisions, established Mount Forest properties, and rural Wellington North acreages.
We manage the complete project — design consultation, 3D renders so you can see the finished kitchen before work begins, material selections, permits through the Township of Wellington North, and all trades coordinated by one team from start to final walkthrough.
Kitchen Renovation Services in Arthur & Mount Forest
Custom Cabinetry & Millwork
Fully custom cabinetry built to your kitchen's exact dimensions and your style. Custom wood options across a range of door styles and finishes — painted, stained, natural — with soft-close hardware, pull-out systems and pantry solutions. Whether you're upgrading a builder-grade kitchen in a newer Arthur subdivision or replacing decades-old cabinetry in an established Mount Forest home, we build it to fit properly and last.
Layout Reconfigurations & Islands
Open up a closed kitchen, reconfigure a galley layout, or add a properly built island. We handle structural changes, countertop installations in stone, quartz or granite, and kitchen island builds designed for how you actually use your space. For older properties in Arthur and Mount Forest we assess existing structural conditions before any layout changes begin.
Tile, Backsplash & Flooring Tile
Tile backsplash design and installation, new kitchen flooring, and all finish work coordinated to work together. We help you select materials that suit your home — whether you want a contemporary finish for a newer Arthur build or something more traditional for an established Mount Forest property — and install them properly from the substrate up.
Lighting, Electrical & Plumbing
New lighting layouts, under-cabinet lighting, electrical upgrades for modern appliances, and plumbing for relocated sinks or new connections — all coordinated by LUMA. We also provide 3D design concepts and material renders for every project so you can see your finished kitchen before a single cabinet is installed.

Q: Do I need a permit for a kitchen renovation in Arthur or Mount Forest?
Cosmetic changes — new cabinetry, countertops, backsplash — generally don't require a permit. Renovations involving electrical upgrades, plumbing relocations, or structural changes like removing walls require a permit through the Township of Wellington North. LUMA assesses what's required and handles the process if needed.
Q: Do you work on rural and farm properties outside Arthur and Mount Forest?
Yes. LUMA regularly works on rural properties and acreages across Wellington North. Rural properties sometimes have older plumbing and electrical configurations that need assessment before kitchen work begins — we flag these during the consultation so there are no surprises.
Q: Do you build fully custom cabinetry?
Yes. LUMA builds fully custom cabinetry to your kitchen's exact dimensions — not semi-custom orders with limited sizing options. We offer custom wood options across a full range of door styles and finishes.
Q: Do you offer 3D design concepts? Yes. We provide 3D renders and material samples for every kitchen project so you can see the finished result before any work begins.
Q: How long does a kitchen renovation take?
A cosmetic refresh typically takes 3–5 weeks. A full renovation with new layout and cabinetry typically takes 6–10 weeks once materials are on order. Custom cabinetry lead times are factored into your schedule at the design stage.
