The Cabinet Refinishing Process:

Here's what you can expect when you work with us:

1. Consultation / Quote: Quotes are provided via text, email, or messenger. To give an accurate quote, details about the number of doors and drawers and clear pictures of the kitchen layout are needed. In-home consultations can also be arranged. Once the quote is approved, a suitable date is scheduled, your  kitchen is booked for two weeks, with full use except for the two working days in-house. Color recommendations are offered, and multiple samples are suggested to find the best match, which is then professionally matched in the product. your color picked, we have it professionally matched in our product.

2. Pick-Up: We will typically pick up your doors on a Monday to bring them back to the shop for prep / spraying. There is no preparation you need to do for this part - we  just come and remove the doors / drawer faces and you still have full use of your kitchen at this time.

3. In the Shop:  Your doors and drawers are thoroughly scrubbed, degreased and sanded to ensure excellent adhesion and a smooth surface to start with.  Any knicks, dents, holes etc. are filled at this time. Both the prime and finish coats are sprayed using our fine finish spray system and sanding is done between each coat. Care and attention is paid every step of the way to ensure a dust / particle free finish that has a factory smooth  look and feel.  All products we use are industrial grade and specifically designed for kitchens / wood finishing. The shop is set up with an exhaust system for dust control and we have a portable exhaust system we use when spraying in your home.

4. The In-House Portion:    This phase of the project involves completing the in-house portion of the cabinetry, typically over a span of two days during which the kitchen will be inaccessible. It is not necessary to empty the cabinets as non-sprayed areas will be masked off, although some may choose to clean them during this time. Appliances should be relocated if possible, and counters cleared to allow full access. A tent and portable exhaust system are utilized to manage dust and odor. Most products used are water-based, but solvents may be employed for challenging stains. Odors are minimal, comparable to regular paint or less. Comprehensive clean-up is conducted upon completion, allowing the kitchen to be usable again at the end of the two days, with a third day generally required for re-installation of the finished cabinet doors, along with any necessary adjustments and touch-ups.

5. Re-Installation: Once the in-house portion of the process is complete, we take down the tent and do a thorough clean-up of the area . Your doors and drawers, hardware and soft close attachments (if pre ordered) are installed, and alignment can be made at this time. Once everything is back in place, your kitchen is ready to be used again! 
Please be mindful that when it comes to adjustments on older cabinets, we do not guarantee perfect alignment as warped frames or failing / outdated hinges can significantly impact our efforts. If you are aware of or have concerns about the alignment etc. of your cabinets, please be sure to let us know prior to booking so we can order replacement hinges and manage expectations accordingly. 

 5. Inspection: Upon completion, we like to do a complete walk through of the kitchen with you to ensure you're completely satisfied with the work before leaving you to enjoy your kitchen.
