Cabinet Refinishing In Parry Sound & Muskoka

FAQ

Can all kitchen cabinets be refinished?

Many existing cabinets can be successfully refinished, but their material and condition must be inspected first. Cabinets with significant damage, failing surfaces or certain finishes may require repairs or may not be suitable for painting.

​

Do you spray the cabinet doors?

Yes. Cabinet doors and drawer fronts are carefully prepared and sprayed to create a smooth, even and refined finish. Proper preparation is completed before the primer and finish coats are applied.

​

What happens to the cabinet boxes?

The cabinet boxes remain in the kitchen and are carefully cleaned, prepared and finished on-site. Surrounding countertops, floors, walls and appliances are protected throughout the process.

​

How long does cabinet refinishing take?

The timeline depends on the size of the kitchen, number of doors and drawers, cabinet condition and preparation required. A project schedule will be provided after the cabinets have been inspected.

​

How durable is a refinished cabinet finish?

When the cabinets are properly cleaned, prepared, primed and finished with suitable products, the result is designed for regular kitchen use. Like any painted surface, refinished cabinets should still be cleaned gently and protected from excessive moisture or impact.

​

Is cabinet refinishing less expensive than replacing the cabinets?

Refinishing can be more affordable than complete replacement when the existing cabinets and layout remain in good condition. The final cost depends on the kitchen size, cabinet condition and project requirements.

​

Can I change my cabinet colour?

Yes. Cabinet refinishing allows you to update the colour while keeping the existing cabinet layout. We can help you select a colour that works with your countertops, backsplash, flooring and overall kitchen design.

​

Can I keep my existing handles and hardware?

Existing handles and knobs can usually be reinstalled if they are in good condition. New hardware may also be installed when it fits the existing holes or when the required modifications are included in the project.

​

How should refinished cabinets be cleaned?

Use a soft cloth with mild soap and water, then dry the surface afterward. Avoid abrasive pads, harsh chemicals and excessive moisture, as these may damage the finish over time.

​

What is the difference between cabinet refinishing and cabinet replacement?

Refinishing keeps your existing cabinet boxes, doors and layout while updating the painted finish. Replacement removes the existing cabinetry and installs new cabinets, which is a larger renovation with different costs and timelines.
