The Story of a Master Carpenter: From a Basement to Hundreds of Kitchens

May 5, 2025


Every great story starts with humble beginnings, and the story of Fernando Rocchetta, the Owner and President of Rocpal Custom Cabinets Ltd, is no exception. As a young boy, Fernando discovered his passion for cabinetry in his father's workshop. His father, a master carpenter, passed down his skills and love for the craft to his son. At the tender age of 16, Fernando built his first kitchen in a 500 sq. ft. basement, a testament to his talent and dedication.


Building a Legacy


Fernando's passion for cabinetry didn't stop at his first kitchen. He continued to hone his skills, creating custom pieces and refining his craft. His dedication and commitment to quality led him to establish Rocpal Custom Cabinets Ltd. Today, Rocpal builds hundreds of kitchens, vanities, and fine custom millwork pieces every year. Each piece is a testament to Fernando's commitment to quality and his passion for the craft.


Assembling a Team of Professionals


Fernando understood that to create stunning cabinetry for custom kitchens or for other parts of the home, he needed a team of professionals who shared his commitment to quality and customer service. Over the years, Rocpal has assembled a highly skilled team of industry professionals. Each member brings their unique talents and skills to the table, contributing to the creation of exceptional cabinetry that enhances any home.


A Commitment to Quality and Excellence


Quality and excellence are at the heart of Rocpal's operations. Fernando and his team go to great lengths to ensure that their products meet the highest standards. They are constantly innovating, finding new ways to improve the quality of their products and the satisfaction of their customers. This commitment to quality and excellence has made Rocpal one of the leading names in carpentry and millwork.
