Get matched with top cabinets refinish pros in Elkin, NC

"Great service. Professional from the planning stage to the completion stage. Excellent carpentry work. Built upper cabinets new and changed some lower cabinets to large drawers. Refaced balance of cabinets. Very pleased with everything. Highly recommend."

"In March of 2021 Superior Custom Cabinetry came to give us quote on refinishing our kitchen cabinets. The young lady that came to give us our quote was very thorough in explaining the entire process from start to finish. Her attention to detail and willingness to answer every question or find out the answer to our questions are what sold us on using Superior Custom Cabinetry. The work was done in April of 2021 by two young ladies. They were meticulous and did all they could to minimize overspray as well as dust. It took them awhile due to some unforeseen equipment issues, which happens. But overall we were delighted with the finished product. The reason for the 4 star review: At the end of our island we had a wine rack and it was just a dust collector for us. We were told that a panel could be placed in its place to cap the end of our island and would look like the rest of the Island. We thought that would be great and had them put a wood panel over the wine rack. We did like the look that it provided, but when they painted it we became aware that there were several markings on the end that looked like someone had taken a pen and made several grooves in the wood. We were told this was just the grain of the wood on the panel. They came in filled in the grooves, but because they had already sprayed everything they had to paint with a brush and brush marks were left on the finished product which show up in the sunlight. We didn't care for the look with the finish on the panel They also took our a lazy susan corner cabinet out to refinish and when it was put back together the cabinet shelves now rub the frame of the door when it is turned. It was not this way previously. They came back after the paint had a chance to cure, did some touch ups and adjusted some cabinet doors. They looked at the lazy susan and told me that they would have to get in touch with John and get back with us. We have yet to hear from them and it has been at least a month. These are my only negatives on a big job. Overall I am pleased excepted for the aforementioned. Our kitchen cabinets do look really, really good."

"The kitchen cabinet makeover came out stunning."

"Needed fencing installed to keep groundhogs from taking up residence under our deck. Brady came up with a creative and complete solution that made sure the varmints were out and would not return. Would use again."

"They updated both my kitchen and my screened-in patio and did a great job with both. They completed both in five weeks. They cleaned up after themselves. Discussed any changes or decisions that we needed to make together. I am very pleased with the work and would recommend them to anyone."

"Nhance did a wonderful job. In reworking our kitchen we had mixed new cabinets with the old and were concerned that both have the same "look" when the painting was done. That happened in part because of careful work on the part of Nhance which involved at least one extra coat of paint for one of the new pieces. We're loving the new look and the cost was less than we had expected. Great job and we'd recommend them highly."

"Junior and his team are simply SPECTACULAR. They are professional, honest, prompt, and thorough, and whether you need interior painting, exterior painting, drywall repair, or staining, the quality of their work is far superior to the competition. Junior is a perfectionist who takes great pride in his work, and his work is flawless. He takes the time to do things right. If you have an older house like ours with cracks and sags in the ceilings and walls, he will leave it looking brand new without a single imperfection and with an absolutely smooth surface of paint. He takes extra special care to ensure that there is never a drop of paint where it should not be, and even if the job has required extensive sanding when he is finished your house will be cleaner than when he started. Junior costs more than the competition, but he is well worth it. We learned this the hard way. We initially went with a cheaper painting company (which, by the way, was highly rated). Boy, was this a BIG MISTAKE! The painters did such a poor job mudding our ceilings that they looked as full of imperfections as before; the paint had that horrible popcorn effect; they got paint all over our stained oak interior trim, and they left the interior of the house coated in a layer of dust from paint and plaster. We called in Junior to fix this mess. All we can say is, "Thank God for Junior!" Do yourself a favor. If you care about your beautiful house, or if you want your house to be beautiful, call Junior and Clean Hands Painting now. ***UPDATE*** I recently (11/27/2019) wrote a stellar review of Junior’s professional, honest, prompt, thorough, and highest quality interior painting, exterior painting, drywall repair, and staining. I would like to add to what I said there by describing the quality of his work on a recent job that involved renovating our oak staircase. The sanding involved the use of both a small electrical sander and hand sanding to ensure that every area of the steps – the tread, riser, newel post, inner and outer string, balusters, and fascia – was completely and evenly sanded. He repaired damage to the wood in various areas of the steps making them look new. We decided to have the treads stained red mahogany and the strings, risers, fascia, and balusters painted black. As usual, Junior used extreme care, including taping all areas that needed to be protected when painting the railing and risers so that the newly stained treads did not get paint on them. The combined effect of the staining and painting was spectacular. The stained treads look rich, even-colored, and like new. The oil-based black paint that was expertly applied to all of the other areas of the stairs highlights the beautiful wood grain. Junior did not leave a single paint drop anywhere, and the lines that divide, for example, the treads and risers, are razor sharp. In sum, if you have oak stairs (or any kind of stairs) that you value and want expertly and beautifully refinished, stained, and/or painted, Junior is your man. I would not trust my stairs to anyone else."

"I had been looking for a furniture restorer to repair a dining room table, a midcentury modern dresser, and also a midcentury modern coffee table. The table had extensive sun damage and the other two pieces were in need of repair and refinishing. After searching numerous home-improvement sites I came across Innovative Design. The majority of the reviews were very good, so I decided to take a chance and call Mr. Schmidt for a free estimate. He arrived promptly and was a very nice older gentleman. I first showed him the dresser and the coffee table and he told my husband and I what he could do to repair them and quoted a price. I then took him into my home to have him look at the dining room table. Upon seeing it, he marveled at how beautiful the table was. It is a unique piece and he was intrigued by the craftsmanship. He looked at every detail of the table and literally crawled underneath to get a good look at the craftsmanship. He gushed at how it was a “beautiful, special piece” and how he would love to take it back to his shop to repair. He stated that he could restore the wood to its original beauty, but was unsure about the inlay on top. He quoted a price which I thought was a bit pricey, but because of what seemed to be a genuine love of furniture and his promise to restore the dining room table, my “pièce de résistance”, I decided it would be worth it to entrust our precious pieces with him. He picked up the pieces on September 4th and we gave him a sizable deposit. Mr. Schmidt stated that the job would take roughly 3 weeks to complete. I didn’t necessarily worry about that because it was early September and I knew my table would be back in time for the holidays. After three days Mr. Schmidt contacted me about the small coffee table. He was having a few issues with the finish, and wanted to know which direction we wanted him to go. We replied back and both parties agreed upon what he would do to repair the coffee table. No problem there. After that I hadn’t heard from him in a while so I emailed him on the 17th to see where he was in the process. He then informed me that the dresser unit had a few issues because it was more scratched than he thought and the stain that he put on was uneven. He told me that he would continue working on it and send me a picture very soon. On September 23 he sent me a picture of the dresser. In all honesty the structure of the dresser was very nice, only problem was he painted all the handles black. The dresser was a wood and wood laminate midcentury brown. I initially told him I wanted it restored to its original appearance, so I was surprised and disappointed by the black handles. When I asked why he painted/stained the handles black, his response was that the wood grain varied so much that the handles stain looked unmatched and the dresser needed some contrast to stand out. I’m all for poetic license, but I’d already told him that I wanted it restored to its original state. This meant NO BLACK HANDLES! He then asked, “Do you want the dresser as is now? I am not able to improve the results.” No, I didn’t want the dresser because that was not what I told him I wanted. At that point, I called to speak to him to let him know that this was not what I wanted. I got his voicemail, so I left a message. The next day he emailed to tell me that he added wood blocks to the two front drawers in an attempt to camouflage the differences. I now had a dresser with black handles and two wooden blocks on each side. To be honest, I truly appreciated him trying to make improvements, but it looked nothing like I expected. I then replied to him and told him to remove the two blocks and to paint the handles brown. He finally did what I requested and sent pictures on the 29th. To his credit, the finished product was beautiful. On October 2nd, Mr. Schmidt emailed me with regard to the coffee table. He informed me that he was “at a loss of what to do with it“. My husband and I gave him some direction, because at that point we just wanted all of our furniture back. He didn’t respond, so we weren’t really sure if he would comply with our requests or what he was thinking. On October 6th, I emailed to find out how things were going with the dining room table and coffee table. I also asked when he could deliver the dresser, as he had stated in an earlier email that he could deliver each piece as he completed them. On October 7th, he responded: “When is a good time and day for you?  I can load up the dresser will need unload help at your end.  The little table is close to finish working on the top everything else is completed.  The dinning room table I will not be able to work on.  The time I have used so far on your projects has far exceeded my time frame.  Did not expect the problems with the dresser unit due to the veneer on the one drawer.  I will return your $600.00 for the partial payment or the table.  Of course all units will be returned to you.  I worked hard and diligently on your units just used enormous time trying to make them nice for you and your husband”. REALLY?!?!? I hired him solely because of all he said he could do to restore my dining room table! We discussed how this was THE main concern and how I wanted it done for the holidays. To have him email me after holding onto the table for a month and then tell me that he is unable to do it is beyond disbelief! If time was a factor he should have made this known early on, so I could remind him of how to prioritize the repairs or perhaps find someone else who could restore it. At this point, I will be hard pressed to get it repaired before Thanksgiving. I truly appreciate the work that was put into our other pieces, and as I stated earlier, the dresser is beautiful. He did a decent enough job on the round coffee table; it is sturdy and looks nice. However, when he dropped it off to our home on October 14th, the paint was still damp and smelled very strong. It is only because the dresser looks nice that, I’m giving him a C. I realize that the entire job took him longer than expected, but I wish that he had communicated this early on. He basically said, “Forget this!” and decided to not complete the job we hired him to do. Meanwhile, my dining room table is still a mess. He could have explained that it would take a little more time, and I even would’ve been OK with him requesting additional funds. Based on how he handled things with my table and the damp paint on the coffee table, I will not be recommending him to anyone. Very disappointing."

The pressure washing was complete and thorough.  It was neither rushed nor haphazard.  Inclement weather required that Mike stand down for several days, but at the first opportunity he and his crew of five experienced painters arrived on the job.  This rather surprised me because on five different house painting occasions (here and elsewhere) one painter and his assistant took several days, even weeks to do the job. This large crew began and completed the job in one day. One day!

Anyway, this crew of five immediately fell to, with some painting door trim, some painting window trim, some painting the tall wooden chimney and the others on the house proper.  I can think of several words to describe these craftsmen.  They all were personable, neat, workman-like, courteous, and appeared to be having fun.  In a word they were gentlemen.

A note about our house.  It is a pseudo log cabin common in this area of the North Carolina mountains.  The logs consist of rectangular 6"x12" pine painted grey and separated by a 3" white "plastic" chinking material.  This repetitive separation of colors made their job difficult and slow.  Use of painter's tape was inappropriate so every color separation had to be accomplished by hand... and this was done magnificently. Their thoroughness can be illustrated by their treatment of the chinking.  Since its original application in the late 90's it had never been painted.  So imagine our surprise when Mike and the crew painted the chinking with a brilliant white concrete stain. Made it look like new, added hours to their job and beauty to our home.

I called Mike for an estimate and he responded promptly. Since I am wheelchair-bound my son went over what we needed. Not only did this estimate include the work, but all paint and all other materials. After reviewing the job an estimate was provided the same day.  It was several hundreds of dollars cheaper than the next lowest estimate. Incidentally, door weather stripping was repairable and paintable, however Mike chose to replace it with new.  This was not included in his original estimate, but he refused to accept additional compensation. He stuck to his initial estimate--to the penny.

After accepting  the estimate we were placed on Mikes work schedule. He called before arriving for pressure washing and painting As stated rainy weather delayed painting, but this was a necessary delay.  There is no complaint about responsiveness or punctuality.  Mike responded promptly and came when he said he would. Can't ask for better than that.

As to quality of work, it is superb.  I am unable to view the entire house, but three highly critical individuals have gone over  every square foot.  These are my wife, my son and his wife.  All were extremely pleased.  And believe me, if my wife and daughter-in-law aren't happy, no one is happy. They found no fault with anything.  No trampled flowers.  No missed spots.  No sloppy work.. And very important,  a complete and proper clean up. My wife says that the crew seemed to do their best to please and that the house looks better than it did when new.

In short, these guys were complete professionals.  Mike  showed his trustworthiness and I would feel no qualms about referring him to anyone. We have nothing but compliments for Mike's Painting and Pressure Washing.
