"This was residential however I could not find residential kitchen remodel on your list. I contacted the company several years ago when these things started to occur the laminate peeling away from the cabinets the cracks in the laminate starting to curl. I was told when somebody will get back with you. We don?t do that anymore. However, $15,000 should?ve covered something on a lifetime warranty. They did the job twice initially because they did such a bad job with the first install installation. Very clearly, I?ve gotten no response from the company they act like they don?t know who I am. And they?ve done that since the second installation. "

"I WOULD GIVE NEGATIVE STARS IF POSSIBLE CONSUMERS BEWARE! Chose this company through our insurance to fix a water problem. From the beginning Dillon communicated (12/26) that he would be able to complete our repairs in 2/3 days max, by the end of the week he pressured us for the deductible to get us on the schedule. We promptly paid. Being that we had pipes exposed in the cold and wanting to avoid further damage we needed help as quick as possible. Fast forward to our scheduled day. I stay home from work. No one shows 2 hours into the apt Dillion says his contractor who is a SUBcontractor and does not even work for design is too busy to help us. This is against nationwides policy. After pestering them for two weeks they came out and did a poor job putting dry wall and insulation up, they went through 4/5 pieces bc they could not make it fit and made the project last 8 hours. The job isn’t complete and now they say they can’t mud in the cold. Houses get built in the winter, every contractor I’ve told including our adjuster has scoffed at how dumb this excuse is. Dillon has proceeded to ghost our every call since their botch repair dry wall job. This is completely a fraudulent experience from start to finish they promise time frames and do not show up and send 3rd party contractors against policy. They took my money and went completely MIA. Btw Dillon your read receipts are on. I can see when you’re ignoring us. I have formally filed a report with my insurance and they will also independently file a report for fraudulent practices. Very disappointed at how we were treated and given very low priority in a high stress situation. They will be refunding my deductible sans the crap dry wall and insulation that my four year old could have put up. Should also be noted our auditor and adjuster came out after hearing our complaints and notified Dillon who said he would meet at the job site. No surprise here he no called no showed. I am in shock at the way someone can avoid a paying customer that they at the very minimum owe honest and clear communication to. I am glad I went through insurance against his recommendations not to because I would have lost my money outright. This entire ordeal wasted 50 days of my life"

FAQs for cabinets refinish projects in Dover, OH

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.
