❓ Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about our services in Charlotte.

Pricing and timeline guidance Warranty and prep standards Local scheduling context
How long does cabinet refinishing take?
A typical kitchen cabinet refinishing project takes 3-5 days depending on the size of your kitchen and the complexity of the finish. This is significantly faster than replacement, which can take 3-8 weeks.
What's the difference between cabinet refinishing and painting?
Cabinet refinishing involves stripping, sanding, and applying new stain or finish to the existing wood. Cabinet painting involves priming and painting over the existing surface. Both provide excellent results; refinishing is ideal for wood grain lovers, while painting offers unlimited color options.
How much can I save compared to replacing cabinets?
Cabinet refinishing typically costs 50-70% less than full replacement. While new cabinets can cost $20,000-$50,000+, professional refinishing usually ranges from $3,000-$8,000 for a standard kitchen.
How long will refinished cabinets last?
With proper care, professionally refinished cabinets can last 10-15 years or more. We use premium finishes designed for high-traffic kitchen environments and include warranty coverage for your peace of mind.
Can you refinish laminate or thermofoil cabinets?
Yes! While solid wood cabinets are ideal candidates, we can also work with laminate and thermofoil surfaces using specialized primers and techniques. We'll assess your cabinets during the free estimate.
Can you paint oak, maple, MDF, or cherry cabinets?
Yes. We refinish and paint oak, maple, MDF, and cherry cabinets regularly. Each material needs specific prep and primers to ensure long-lasting adhesion and a smooth, factory-quality finish.
Do you cover East, Northeast, Northwest, and Southeast Charlotte?
Yes. We regularly schedule projects across East Charlotte, Northeast Charlotte, Northwest Charlotte, and Southeast Charlotte with the same prep and finish standards we use citywide.
