"The owners, a husband and wife team were so very professional and courteous. They were prompt arriving at the time they said they would arrive, performed the SANDLESS stripping and refinishing of our entire down stairs home flawlessy; they did an absolutely beautiful job. Our home is more than 130 years old and we did not want to sand the floors which would result in losing the beauty....I so highly recommend Mr. Sandless!!! Dont sand hire these people you will be so happy!!!! <br />"

"Overall,, it went well. Delivery was set up when we ordered, and it went as scheduled.  The Woodfront team was punctual, thorough and skilled. Cabinets now look very nice, and function much better.  Some problems with contract details:  5 large pull outs were in the contract, but not ordered.  Installers re-measured, and were installed in about 2 weeks.  Granite for new cabinets took 3 deliveries, and coordination by me.  The contract specified a 4 " backsplash, but it wasn't ordered, so they had to remeasure, and return 2 more times to get that installed.  Team installed a pivoting corner pullout  - they had never installed it before, so I was a little worried about it, but it works great.  One thing I wish could have been worked out:  the contract included them re-installing an over the range microwave.  However, when we took it down, we discovered it couldn't be re-used.  We had also ordered new runners for 2 bathroom drawers - initially for my husband to install later.  Since they didn't have to spend time to re-install the microwave, I asked if they could install the bathroom runners.  I was told it would be a $50 installation fee. Didn't have them do it.  Seemed like a simple swap to me, oh well.  <br />"

"We are very impressed with Miller Whiteside Woodworking. Kent came to our home and did a free estimate for custom cabinets. They were on time for the install, covered our floors and cleaned up any dust they made. The cabinets are nicer than we expected, very functional with great storage! We will be using Miller Whiteside for all our future woodworking needs."

"Did excellent work. Had to wait quite some time before they were able to do the work. Had the estimate done around Memorial Day and they were not able to do to the work until late November.  Parts were on back order and weather. Would have no problem asking Artemans to do more work on our house. Very professional and courteous. <br />"

"I had my cabinets refaced by Wood Front Kitchens, an affiliate of Peoria Siding & Windows under the Prairie Home Alliance. I was extremely happy with the end result and everyone who has visited has said how surprised they are that I had my cabinets refaced because they look like brand new cabinets.  The quality of the cabinets fronts are superb and the workmanship was excellent.  In addition to refacing the existing cabinets, they added a nice looking book shelf at the end of the island, installed 3 roll out drawers and added other nice finishing touches that I wasn't expecting.  The installers were very professional and cleaned up everything before they left the job.  If you are thinking about refacing your cabinets, I would highly recommend Wood Front Kitchens.  I have no regrets! <br /> <br />"

FAQs for cabinets refinish projects in Normal, IL

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.
