Q. What is Cabinet Refacing?
A. Cabinet Refacing can make a kitchen remodel easy and affordable. This will change the appearance of your kitchen. We remove your old doors and drawer fronts. We then make any modifications that you may have discussed and decided upon with your sales rep. Our technicians then will begin to overlay the existing cabinets with New Wood finished to your desired color (white, gray, cherry, hickory, knotty alder and the list goes on and on). All products are finished in our state of the art shop which gives you the quality of a new cabinet finish and materials. The new trim work is installed and finally the New Doors and Drawer fronts are installed. You will receive a heavy duty self closing concealed hinge. The cabinet refacing process takes just days compared to a total kitchen gut and remodel, and there is also minimal mess compared to a total kitchen remodel!
Q: What are the most important reasons why I should reface my kitchen cabinets?
A: Primarily it is less expensive and less time consuming then replacing cabinets. The end result is just as beautiful and will add value to your home and will be enjoyable for your use for years to come.
Q. Do you have samples to show me or do I have to come up with my own?
A. We have a moving showroom brought right to your home. So no worries wondering what designs or colors will work in your home. We want this to be exactly what you’ve dreamed, so if you have samples/ideas of what you want we will help to make it happen.
Q: Will there be a lot of dust in my house?
A: Whenever there is a project that involves sanding, there will be a certain amount of dust. We cover the openings to your kitchen with plastic & try to keep the dust to a minimum.
Q: We are planning to put our house on the market soon and have been told that our kitchen looks a little tired. If we were to reface, how much of our investment would we stand to get back?
A: Every year, various Realtor groups poll home improvement stores and other Realtors to come up with a list of home improvements that actually add value to your house. Year after year, the top results are the same. Cabinet Refacing is the home improvement job that adds the most value to your house. From our personal experience, cabinet refacing has one of the highest paybacks of any home improvement. We work with Real Estate Agents and Home Stagers and in most cases they do recommend updating the kitchen before selling. It definitely helps increase the buyer’s interest in the property.

A: We offer all kinds of neat gadgets and space saving ideas and products. We can add them to your existing kitchen and even modify your cabinets to fit these products even further enhancing the value of your remodel project.
