"Installation progressed on time. Two issues I was disappointed with was that I had cement board for below the tile but he installed plywood under the shower instead of using cement board throughout. Also he moved the heater/air conditioning vent down in a very sloppy manner so the cover did not fit well. <br />"

"The cleaning was supposed to be done after we moved out, so we don't know if it was done well or at all. We were coerced into using this company by the apartment complex where we stayed during the summer of 2016. The carpets and the apartment were immaculate when we moved out, but we had to pay this company anyway. There were a lot less expensive options available, but we had to use this company. Almost certainly a kick-back situation with the complex. We left a check for exactly what we were told by the apartment complex. A few days later we got a terse phone call from the company telling us we didn't pay sales tax!!! We told them we paid what we were told, and that nobody mentioned sales tax. They reluctantly ate this $6 sales tax charge."

"First date scheduled by them, not us, no show, no call, no text. We had to call them to find out the crew got redirected to fix another crew's screwup. They set a new date and same result. Finally showed up later that week. Crew was exceptionally good, cabinets are great. 98 year old house required custom sizes. Decided to add fake cabinet doors to finish one little section of wall and was quoted $1000 and given a timeframe. Called after the time came and went and found they had a really big job in another town and just blew us off. No apology or communication of any kind. Nice cabinets, poor communication and scheduling."

"I recently was in the market for new windows on my house. I went to a couple of places to compare products and prices. Erie by far was the most helpful in the process. They had a representative come to my house and show me exactly what I was getting. They reviewed every option I had as well as the pricing options for the windows. The price was very comparable to the other places that I looked. I chose to go with Erie. Them being local was also a benefit. The representative also informed me that they would be able to get all of the windows installed in the same day. This did not seem like it would happen to me. Come January Erie came before the day that they projected to be there. A team of 2 men showed up at my house and said they were there for the windows. I did not believe that 2 guys would be able to install the almost 20 windows in one day. But they started working and to my surprise, every window was installed in my house, That night my house kept the highest temperature all night since I have lived there. The nihgt before the windows were installed my house hit a low temp of 56 degrees despite my furnace being set at 65 and running all night. The night I had the new windows my house was able to stay at 65 degrees, despite it being under 10 degrees outside. The next day Erie returned and finished up the windows on the outside of the house. They had to enclose the windows and then they put trim on the windows inside. Both nights after the men were done working they cleaned up after themselves very well. They had a vacuum and when a window was finished being installed the 2nd guy cleaned up. You would have not known how much debris there was because of how quickly they cleaned everything up. Erie was very quick and efficient while doing the install on my house I was very pleased with the final project and I would recommend Erie to do windows on my family members houses. The quality was also very good. My house looks 10 times better both inside and out. I am also happy with the fact that my house can now keep heat in and I do not have the concern of waking up to a very cold house. Erie was excellent."

"We hired Jim Heskje Painting to paint the walls and trim in our basement remodel project. They did a great job. The team left the house every day with tools picked up and the place looking neat. They showed up when they said they would and we’re always on time. We were very pleased with Jim Heskje Painting and will definitely hire them again for our next project!"

"We signed a contract with Mr. Capouch in early February.  The terms were that we would pay 1/3 that day, the second third upon beginning of the project, and a final third upon completion.  He assured us that the whole job would take only about 3-5 days on the premises, as he would do all the prep work in his shop.  Work was to commence at the end of March. <br /> In early March, he called.  My family had arranged to go on vacation in mid-March, and he wanted to know if he could do all his on-site work while we were out of town.  Although we were hesitant, we agreed.  We gave him a key and the second payment on March 13th.   <br /> When we returned a week later, nothing had been done.  We had stripped all the necessary areas down to the studs, but nothing had been done at all.  We began to call.  Eventually, he contacted us.  Excuse number one - his Dad in Wisconsin was ill and needed help, he couldn't come to work.  He would get there next week.  We began to worry. <br /> The next week, he still didn't come.  Oh, except to take more measurements.  It was at this stage that he decided he would remake all the cabinets rather than reface them.  He claimed it would be more material but the same amount of work and he wouldn't charge us additional fees.  We agreed.  I asked him, can you be finished by Easter?  "Oh, yeah. No problem." <br /> In mid-April, he showed up again.  He tore out all the cabinets and stacked them in a pile in front of the garage.  Then, he left.  He would return tomorrow. <br /> He didn't.  We lived three days with no counters, no cabinets, and our kitchen in the living room.  He did eventually come in with the base cabinets and the uppers that fit above them.  He set them, and left again.  My husband and a friend set the counters that day, but we had found all the lawsuits against Capouch by then, and were really starting to worry. <br /> The rest of the time we had to deal with Brian were of a piece: he would promise he'd arrive with one piece or another on Monday, be definitely done by Wednesday.  On Monday he'd never show; on Wednesday, he might come in with one piece or another he had promised, but more often than not, he would give us an excuse.  He's sick, his car broke down, flat tire, he had sprayed the cabinets but the paint or stain had to dry, you get the idea.  We started communicating with him in texts in case we would have to file a lawsuit as well.  We found more and more cases against him, largely from sub-contractors who never got paid, but also from home owners who hired him and were stiffed.  Easter came and went and, though I had base counters and tops, no doors were up and the china hutch we had ordered was still missing.   <br /> In May, slowly, the big pieces started to show up.  The custom china hutch appeared, as did the doors.  The pantry cabinet we had added to the order came in with the wine rack.  But nothing was ever finished in one day - the hutch arrived, but without shelves or drawers.  The doors came in, but some were cut wrong and had to be re-made.  He also started to make noises about needing more money.  He begged my husband for an advance on the remaining total - he needed $2000.  Reluctantly, Dave gave him $1600.  Always, more promises, more excuses.  Sometimes we wouldn't hear from him for a week.  Always, he would swear - I HAVE to be done by Wednesday, as if we were stopping him from finishing the job.  A week before he finished the job, he contacted Dave again for an advance - he hadn't paid the electric bill for his shop and he had no power.  Another $1000 advance. <br /> In late May, my husband gave him an ultimatum - you're done on Sunday of this week.  Whatever you have finished is what gets finished.  If you're not done, we don't pay you the remainder of the money.  (By that time, we had also negotiated additional trim around two windows, the pantry cabinet was extra, and the wine rack as well.)  He came back - if you're not going to pay me more, I'm going to take back the wine rack.  He came back that Sunday, didn't finish everything (we still needed trim around the doors, windows, inset cabinet, drawers for the hutch, etc.)  But he was close.  He didn't finish that week, oh no, it was still another week and a half before the last piece came in, was applied, and all the junk wood from in front of our garage removed.  We settled up with him on the remainder and were so grateful to see the last of him. <br /> Overall, the workmanship on the cabinets is stunning.  He used birch wood, the finish is lovely, the craftsmanship excellent.  We are very happy with the finished product, but be very careful with this contractor.  If you do hire him, put completion dates into the contract.  Attach penalties for non-compliance.  But even then - look him up in court cases on line in Iowa.  I counted more than 50 suits against him, and at least 2 bankruptcies.  Even if you do put him under contract, he may not honor it and let you sue him.  I think we were lucky, though I don't know why.  He finished the job, with a lot of twisting and begging from us, and the work is wonderful.  We would have fired him several times along the way, but had sunk too much money into this contractor and hadn't the heart to start over with a new one.  We had interviewed several others, and none came back with plans or bids that were reasonable in price or scope.  I just wish we had known to run from this guy. <br />"

FAQs for cabinets reface projects in Urbana, IA

Absolutely. Refacing returns 65% to 80% of your investment at resale, and you get an updated kitchen right now. Because you’re not paying for new boxes or demo work, the price lands well below complete replacement but still delivers a fresh, custom look that buyers—and you—notice every time you walk in.

To trim costs, start by pricing a high-quality paint or gel stain instead of full refacing—stain alone can be one-third the price of full refacing. Keep existing hinges and pulls if they’re in good shape, and shop sales for sandpaper, primer, and sealer. The sweat equity is real, but so are the savings, and a careful DIY job can still leave your cabinets looking sharp for years to come.

A professional crew needs only three to five days to reface a standard kitchen, although a larger layout or intricate door style may add one to two days. Compare that with the several weeks a full cabinet swap can drag on. In other words, you get your space back fast, often before the paint on the new doors is even fully cured.

Yes, you can replace just the cabinet doors and drawer fronts without covering the cabinet boxes. Cabinet refacing involves installing new doors and drawer fronts while applying veneers to existing cabinet boxes. If you’re satisfied with the condition of your cabinets, swapping doors and drawer fronts reduces labor and materials, saving you time and cost. Always consult a professional to confirm compatibility and ensure a seamless, high-quality finish.

Most cabinet refacing projects do not require removing countertops because professionals can access doors and drawers around existing surfaces. However, if your countertop overhang prevents full access to the cabinet boxes, contractors may need to lift the countertop to install veneers properly temporarily. Discuss this with your refacing specialist during the on-site estimate so you know exactly what the project entails.
