"Very professional job. Employees are great to work with and the value of my house has increased thousands of dollars over what I paid for my kitchen renovation. I had cabinet doors replaced and existing cabinets refreshed - new quartz countertops also. Give them a call!"

"Jim recently painted a custom built-in entertainment center in our home. The project was in our finished basement and Jim went above and beyond to protect our home when setting up his paint area. He was responsive, punctual, and completed on schedule. He is an excellent painter, detail oriented, and holds himself to an incredibly high standard. Highly recommend!"

"Miljan was absolutely amazing. Showed up on time and his communication was great. He got to work on the honey do list ive had for my husband for the past 5 years or so and finished in roughly 6 hours. His pricing was extremely fair. He was careful to not damage my home while working and carrying supplies and materials and he cleaning up during and after his work. I'm extremely happy with his work and will be hiring him for all future work I need done around my home vs. nag my husband and wait for years. Trust me ladies, much more efficient and cost effective to hire Miljan!"

"Mike Arpy and his crew did an outstanding job building our new deck! From start to finish, he was professional, punctual, and incredibly detail-oriented. One of the standout aspects of working with Mike was his excellent and prompt communication. He always got back to us almost immediately, which made the entire process smooth and stress-free. The quality of his work exceeded our expectations, with precise craftsmanship and a beautiful final product. His crew was polite, respectful, and hardworking, ensuring the job site was clean and organized throughout the project. I've used Mike for multiple projects, and his consistency, reliability, and commitment to excellence have always impressed me. I will definitely be using his services again in the future. If you're looking for a reliable and skilled construction expert, I highly recommend Mike Arpy. We couldn't be happier with our new deck!"

FAQs for cabinets refinish projects in Des Moines, IA

To find the best cabinet refinishing expert for your project, start by researching local pros and reading reviews from previous customers. Reach out to a few contractors to discuss your cabinets' size, condition, and the look you're aiming for. Don't hesitate to ask for references or examples of their past work. Speaking with previous clients can give you valuable insights into the pro's workmanship and reliability.

When speaking with potential cabinet refinishing pros, consider asking them several questions to gauge their experience and professionalism. These questions can help you gauge the pro's experience and determine if they align with your needs.

  • Do you offer a guarantee on your work?

  • Can you create custom finishes or colors?

  • Do you have examples or samples of your past projects?

  • Are you able to match the finish to other cabinets in my home?

  • How long will the project take from start to finish?

Regular care will help maintain the beauty of your cabinets for years to come. To keep your refinished cabinets looking their best, follow these steps:

  • Use gentle cleaners: Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that can damage the finish. A simple mixture of warm water and mild dish soap works well.

  • Clean carefully: Instead of spraying solutions directly onto the cabinets, apply them to a soft microfiber cloth and wipe gently.

  • Protect from heat and moisture: Try to minimize exposure to excessive heat or moisture, which can affect the finish over time.

It's usually less costly to refinish cabinets than to replace them, depending on the cabinet condition. Refinishing cabinets cost an average of $3,114 while replacing cabinets is about $5,000 or more. When deciding to refinish or replace cabinets, consider several factors, including how old your cabinets are, your budget, and whether you need to complete any other renovation projects at the same time.

It may be worth resurfacing (also known as refacing) your cabinets if they’re in good shape but you’re interested in a different look. This is often less expensive than replacing cabinets outright and can allow you to update the look of your cabinets to reflect your kitchen’s current style without having to get rid of them entirely. The cost to reface cabinets is around $4,300 to $10,000, and you can hire a local cabinet refacing pro to handle this work.

Refinishing cabinets takes about two to three days to complete. The process begins with removing cabinet doors, drawers, and hardware, followed by cleaning, stripping, and sanding the surfaces. Any chips, stains, or splits are repaired before applying paint or stain. After applying the finish, the cabinets are reassembled, and the workspace is cleaned up, leaving your cabinets refreshed and renewed.
