Frequently Asked Questions

What cabinet problems can you repair?

We repair damaged doors, loose hinges, broken drawer slides, sagging shelves, water damage, delamination, chipped edges, cracked panels, and worn-out hardware. Most cabinet issues can be fixed for a fraction of replacement cost.

When should I repair vs replace cabinets?

Repair when cabinets are structurally sound with cosmetic or minor functional issues. Replace when there's extensive water damage, severe structural failure, or when you want a completely new layout. We can assess and advise.

How much do cabinet repairs cost?

Minor repairs (loose hinges, adjustments) start at $50-100. Moderate repairs (drawer slides, small damage) run $100-300. Major repairs (water damage, door replacement) cost $200-500+ depending on scope.

Can you match my cabinet doors?

In many cases, yes. We can often source matching or similar doors from cabinet suppliers. If exact matches aren't available, we can paint all doors to unify the look or replace doors on visible sections.

Do you combine repairs with painting?

Absolutely! In fact, combining repairs with cabinet painting is our most popular service. Fix issues first, then paint everything for a complete kitchen transformation at a fraction of replacement cost.

How long do cabinet repairs take?

Simple repairs can be done in a few hours. More complex work may take 1-3 days. Combined with painting, a complete kitchen project takes 4-7 days total.

Do you cover East, Northeast, Northwest, and Southeast Charlotte?

Yes. We regularly complete projects across East Charlotte, Northeast Charlotte, Northwest Charlotte, and Southeast Charlotte.
