Refacing cabinetry is an amazing process of taking what once was old and turning it into something new and beautiful. I understand that there are a lot of questions when it comes to refacing cabinets. Let me answer a few of them here, and if you have more, please don’t hesitate to contact me at any time with them.
What is Refacing?
Refacing is when we keep your existing cabinetry where it is, including the basic frame of it. We create new doors, hinges, etc. to give it a new lease on life.
Why is your Refacing different?
I started out in the cabinetry industry, creating custom cabinetry. I’ve taken this knowledge with me when refacing cabinets to create a seamless and beautiful finish. I also use only solid woods during this process which ensures the cabinets will be around for years and years to come.
How do I know if Refacing is right for me?
When we meet and discuss your needs, I’ll help you go over your options, and in some cases refacing is the right way to go. For instance, if you want to keep the integrity of the space, or if you are working in an older home, refacing could be the best way to accomplish everything on your wish list!
Is Refacing more cost effective?
The pricing when it comes to refacing is based once again on each client and their needs. A good amount of the time, refacing is the more cost effective route to go depending on your space and the condition of your current cabinets.
Here is just a brief overview of countertops. Please contact us for information at 603-518-5885
Can I just replace my countertops?
Yes absolutely, I’m available to just take out your existing countertop and replace it with a new one that fits with your home or office.
Will you help me pick out the best countertop for me?
Yes I will. We’ll go over each material and pick the one that fits your life style the best.
Can you give me an estimated cost on the countertop if I send you the dimensions?
I can’t give you an estimated cost until I see a sample sketch of the countertop area, know what type of material you are looking for, dimensions, and if you’d like an special designs or treatments to the countertops.
Should I replace my kitchen and bathroom countertop at the same time?
If you’re going to be using granite, I suggest replacing both at the same time to help ensure you work off of the same slab for everything {Granite can very in color and texture depending on the slab}. If you’re using a man made material such as quartz you could replace them both at the same time or at different times, which ever would work best for you!
What Materials do you work with?
We work with a wide array of materials for countertops. My personal favorites are: Granite, Quartz, Laminate, Acrylic, Soapstone, and Wood Butcher Block. See our Materials Page for more information.
