Formerly know as G & G Furniture and Cabinet Restoration - Same Ownership since 1976 - We specialize in Refacing/Painting & Restoration of cabinets. All of our cabinets include custom doors, stain colors, paint colors, and finishing options. We also specialize in full Kitchen & Bath Remodeling, Counter Tops, Interior Doors, and all trim including crown molding.Tell us what you want to spend, and we will work out a plan to meet your budget.
"We researched several kitchen restoration companies and finally selected 3 of them to give us estimates for painting our outdated oak cabinets in the kitchen and master bathroom. The price ranged widely among the 3 companies. One estimate was extremely high. GG Kitchen Restorations was the cheapest estimate however, once we had each company come out and had them explain what they were going to do it was very evident that GG Restorations was going to be a one-stop shop for us to get everything done as we needed and with high quality workmanship. We did have a couple of extra small issues in the cabinets that needed to be fixed prior to the painting prep could start and the other 2 companies would either charge us a huge amount to do a drastic re-design which really wasn’t needed or said they wouldn’t do that type of work and left it up to us. GG Restorations was more than willing to help us get past these small barriers and get our dream kitchen to our specifications at a reasonable cost. Frank and his team were great. Frank is very pleasant and fun to work with and he takes the time to really get to know what you want. Chris and Tim, that did the work in the house, did excellent work, and they never left a mess. Our kitchen and bathroom look great and what a transformation from old to a modern look. We highly recommend GG restorations to anyone."

FAQs for built in furniture construct projects in Union, IL
High-quality furniture-grade wood will give you the best performance. Softer woods (like pine) and particle boards like MDF can sag under the weight of heavy books. Ideally, your shelves should hold 20 to 40 pounds per foot, so opt for scratch-resistant hardwood plywood or solid wood. Popular options include mahogany, cherry, maple, oak, walnut, and birch.
Built-ins look best when they feel like part of the room, so many homeowners run them floor to ceiling and stop at a natural break such as a doorway. Corner or floating units are smart options for tight spaces. Prefabricated shelves typically run 24–48 inches wide, 10–12 inches deep, and 5–6 feet tall; use those ranges as a quick sizing guide.
The installation time for built-in bookshelves depends on the complexity of the design, the size of the shelves, and the level of customization. A contractor can install a simple prefabricated unit in a few hours, while an elaborate custom unit could take up to a week. Installing add-ons like lighting could also extend the installation process.
For optimal storage efficiency and aesthetics, built-in bookshelves typically feature a shelf depth of 10 to 12 inches. This depth strikes a balance between providing ample space for books and decor while maintaining a sleek, unobtrusive look in your room.
