OUR STORY

MEET THE TEAM

Matt Lightfoot

Founder | Director | Lead Cabinet Maker & Installer

Matt has been working in the industry for over 18 years now. In this time, he has been a valued employee of just three different workplaces. When the ‘weekend jobs’ were piling up, he decided it was time to go at this on his own, along came Lightfoot Custom Cabinetry. With a meticulous eye for detail and a ‘can do’ attitude, you won’t be dissappointed in any build Matt has laid his hands on.

Holding a bachelor's degree in human resource management, Carly has been able to home in on her skills to hold up the back end of the business, whilst also trying her hand at a little cabinetry design. Whilst not working on the business, she also works in a local accounting firm part-time, plays netball & basketball and is mostly importantly Mum to our 2 boys, Jacob & Louis.

Harry Hopkins

Harry came to us for some work experience during his school holidays whilst we were in the planning stages of a kitchen renovation for his parents. With a good work ethic and a polite & respectful attitude we took Harry on as a School Based Apprentice whilst he was seeing out his Year 12 studies. Upon completion of school, Harry was keen to stay on and we were delighted to formally sign him up on an Apprenticeship. Harry is well into his second year of his apprenticeship now and is doing an outstanding job.

Dylan Way

How lucky we are to be able to give a kid who is still in school, an opportunity for them to kick start their career in Cabinet Making. When we reached out to our local school to see if there would be anyone interested, they put forward Dylan and after a couple of days of work experience we knew he would be a great fit so offered him the opportunity of a School Based Apprenticeship. Dylan has been with us since March 2025 and we look forward to seeing his growth in the months & years to come.
