"After 24 years of being in my home, we finally decided to remodel our kitchen. I came across Home Care and Repair on the Facebook Marketplace page and I’m 100% satisfied with their work. They finished my kitchen in about 4 days and I absolutely love it!! I love that they’re a family business as well. They were all so professional, clean and took every Covid safety regulations. From choosing the color of the cabinets, the style, the countertops, etc they were so patient and understanding! Their prices beat almost everyone that we got quotes from. Any questions or concerns that I had, they were on it. I will definitely hire Abel and his team again should I need any more upgrading! I am IN LOVE with how beautiful my kitchen came out! I can enjoy cooking, cleaning and hosting family/friends in my new and remodeled kitchen! I highly recommend Home Care & Repair for your upgrades/remodeling! They are worth every penny!"

"Alfonso recently refinished kitchen cabinets for a client who hired me to sell their house. Alfonso's work was exceptional and played a critical role in the fast sale of the property. The quality of Alfonso's work was outstanding. He took the time to thoroughly prepare the cabinets, ensuring that they were sanded, primed, and painted to perfection. The end result was a beautiful, fresh look that made the kitchen look brand new. Additionally, Alfonso was able to complete the project on time and within budget, which was crucial for our client. Overall, I highly recommend Alfonso for any cabinet refinishing needs. His professionalism, attention to detail, and quality work will not disappoint."

"Jerry, Jose, Martin & Augustino were exceptionally easy to work with on our kitchen cabinet refinishing project. Martin & Augustino in particular were very talented, courteous and punctual each day in our home. Some remodel projects can be difficult, but We enjoyed having them in our home and they were so accommodating to explain their process of refinishing our cabinets. We definitely would recommend Pro Painting JLT Refinishing for the excellent outcome of our kitchen remodel. Bob & Lisa Schueller Irvine, CA"

"We really liked the cabinets we had, however; the finish on them was failing. After researching to find someone who could strip, stain, and refinish the cabinets we signed a contract with Kaveh and his company,Specialty Design Coatings. The finished product results were beautiful. Antonio and Leovardo who were the crew members on the job site daily are very meticulously in their profession. With staining wood sometimes it is difficult to make each piece match in color. If a panel didn’t match the rest of the cabinetry they would redo it until it did. When we had any concerns they were addressed and handled to our satisfaction. This company and those who work for them exude integrity."

"Jeffrey and Juan of the Millennium Painting Co. are the best that we have ever worked with on home projects. Jeffrey is very professional, explains the process and is reliable. They worked long days, in 100 degree weather, never complaining and just wanting to please us and get our job done. They left our house in great condition, requiring no additional clean up from us. Also very reasonable!!! They literally transformed our kitchen and bathroom with their wonderful paint job on our old oak cabinets!! We will certainly be using them for any future projects."

"We hired McCormick to remodel our master bathroom, and the process couldn’t have been smoother. Khaled guided us through everything, and his team was skilled and respectful. They handled the job efficiently, stayed within budget, and kept our home tidy. Now, our bathroom feels like a relaxing oasis, with high-quality finishes and a modern touch we love. McCormick’s attention to detail really made the difference, and I’d gladly hire them for future remodels. This experience was everything we hoped for."

"I would trust any painting job to Matt & Dave at Fine Line, they are great to work with, they do excellent work and their very professional. I met with four painting companies and while Fine Line was not the least expensive, they were by far not the most expensive. However they were by far the most professional. Not only did I have them paint walls, I also asked if they could spray new cabinets on a new kitchen island. The work turned out fantastic, it makes the kitchen!"

"Honestly... the best customer service and most conscientious, punctual crew. Work was done neatly, areas were masked off properly. My cabinets were a cherry brown with dark green granite. They are now a beautiful white with accompanying brass accents (which the guys installed). Daniel was communicative and professional throughout the entire process. You won't be disappointed!"

FAQs for cabinets refinish projects in Santa Ana, CA

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.
