A signature specialty

The kitchen you love.
A finish you’ll notice.

Reconsider the finish while keeping the character of your cabinetry. Kitchen cabinets, islands, vanities, and built-ins deserve close attention to their condition, details, and everyday use.

Where we begin

The right finish
for the right surface.

The final scope is based on the condition and suitability of the surfaces in your home.

  • Kitchen cabinet doors, drawers, and frames
  • Islands and pantry cabinetry
  • Bathroom vanities
  • Built-ins and approved shelving
Preparation & application

What a considered
approach looks like.

01

Assess and label

Review the existing finish, material, hardware, and repair needs. Identify removable parts so the reinstallation is organized.

02

Clean and repair

Remove contamination as needed and complete the agreed repairs to dents, joints, or damaged details.

03

Sand and prime

Prepare the existing surface, manage sanding dust with extraction where used, and choose a primer compatible with the approved finish system.

04

Spray, cure, and reinstall

Spray removable components flat, organize them on drying racks, follow the coating’s handling and curing guidance, then reinstall and inspect.

Behind the finish

The work behind
the finished kitchen.

Protection, preparation, and careful application each shape the finished result.

Protection & containment

Masking, floor protection, and defined work zones.

Flat spraying & drying

Removable parts sprayed flat, then organized on horizontal drying racks.

Sanding & inspection

Dust extraction with Festool equipment where used, plus close inspection of the prepared surfaces.

Equipment references describe tools used where applicable; they do not imply manufacturer endorsement.

Finish options

Choose with the
whole space in mind.

Discuss painted finishes, sheen, and whether you want the character of the wood grain to remain visible. Clear or stained refinishing requires a separate assessment of the wood and its existing finish.

Color & finish guidance
Project considerations

Agree on the details
before work begins.

Oak grain, worn edges, previous coatings, and door construction all influence the final appearance. A physical sample helps establish the approved color, sheen, and surface expectations before full production.

A project-specific proposal connects the price to the preparation, materials, and work included.

How proposals are prepared
  • Door and drawer count, size, and profile
  • Grease, damage, coating condition, and grain expectations
  • Cabinet frames, interiors, islands, and built-ins included
  • Containment, hardware work, and the approved finish system

Helpful answers

A few details
worth discussing.

Will the wood grain disappear?

Not necessarily. Grain visibility depends on the wood and the agreed preparation. If a smoother appearance is important, discuss sample expectations and any additional grain-filling work before approval.

Can I use the kitchen during refinishing?

Access depends on containment, ventilation, and the work sequence. The project plan should make clear which areas and appliances will be available.

Why do drying and curing matter?

A finish can be dry enough for one step before it reaches its full cure. Handling, reinstallation, cleaning, and normal use should follow the selected coating’s instructions.

Do you replace cabinet hardware?

Removal, reinstallation, replacement, or changes to hole locations must be identified in the proposal. Share your hardware plans during the consultation.
