Answer:
Cabinet refacing involves replacing old or worn materials on an existing cabinet frame with newer components: doors, knobs, handles, drawers, slides, & fronts. Conversely, cabinet refinishing typically involves updating the color or finish of existing cabinets.
Answer:
Often, restoring cabinets or cabinetry systems entails replacing key components of the cabinets that are clearly visible when the cabinets are not in use or resting in a ‘closed’ state. Effective cabinet restoration usually involves removing & replacing hardware, knobs, doors, drawer fronts, & handles of the cabinets before applying any paint, finish, stain, or lacquer.
Answer:
Many homeowners who are looking to increase their property’s value in order to maximize their profits during a sale often reface the cabinetry in the kitchen, bathroom, laundry room, or workshop. Doing so not only boosts the aforementioned value of the home in terms of monetary potential but actually does so for a fraction of the cost that it would take actually to replace the cabinets outright.
Answer:
Going with the theme of increasing home value without ‘breaking the bank,’ so to speak, refinishing one’s cabinetry & cabinets is also a great way to breathe new life back into the aesthetics of your home. Homeowners get to enjoy their tried & proven cabinets with a fresh new look & maximal functionality.
Answer:
Another viable and even thriftier option for revitalizing your home’s cabinets is to simply re-paint them. A fresh new color to improve the ambiance of your bathroom, kitchen, laundry room, or workshop cabinets can work wonders for a home without imposing too heavily on a budget or even the time needed to complete the re-painting.
Answer:
As the saying goes: “They don’t make 'em like they used to.” - the same can be said for vintage or classic cabinetry. While it’s true that newer cabinets & cabinetry come equipped with modern hardware & cost-effective materials, it doesn’t take away from the aura that vintage/classical cabinetry emanates when restored properly to their former glory.
Answer:
For a thorough breakdown of the cabinet refinishing process, we do have an entire page dedicated to our specific process surrounding the refinishing of our customers’ cabinets. However, in a nutshell, it can be surmised simply like this: cabinet removal & retrieval, followed by preparation & refinishing in our workshop, and finally concluded by a prompt delivery & professional installation.
