Cabinet Refinishing in Willow Springs, IL

Willow Springs cabinet refinishing, starting with an honest check

Painting cabinets only makes sense when the boxes underneath are sound, so that is what we look at first. If they are, we take off the doors and drawer fronts, label them and bag the hardware. Then we clean, degrease, scuff-sand and fill before a bonding primer goes on. The finish is a cabinet-grade enamel, sprayed on the doors and fronts and on the boxes in place.

We cover Willow Springs, coming in on I-294 or along Archer Avenue and Willow Springs Road, by the Des Plaines River and the forest preserves that line it. Wherever a house sits, the cabinet under the kitchen sink and the bath vanity are where water does its damage. If the bottom of that cabinet is swollen, soft or coming apart, paint will not fix it, and we tell you so at the estimate. Sometimes one damaged box can be rebuilt or replaced and the rest refinished, and sometimes replacement is the honest answer.

What a Willow Springs cabinet refinish covers

Box check before pricing

We open every door and look at the shelves and floors of the boxes, especially under the sinks.

Doors and fronts removed

Doors and drawer fronts come off, get labeled to their openings and are laid out for spraying.

Hardware kept in order

Every hinge and pull goes into a marked bag, unless you are switching to new hardware.

Prep that holds paint

Cleaning, degreasing, a scuff-sand and filler come before any primer is opened.

Bonding primer and enamel

Primer built to grip old finishes, followed by a sprayed cabinet-grade enamel.

Masked kitchen

Counters, floors, walls and appliances are covered while the boxes and frames are painted in place.

What to expect on a Willow Springs cabinet job

We come out, look inside the cabinets and tell you whether refinishing fits before we write a number down. The written estimate lists each cabinet, the door and front count, the color and the sheen, plus any box repair we found. Work that comes up later is priced in writing and waits for your okay. We give you the cure time before day one and finish with a walkthrough, opening and closing every door with you.

FAQ

Cabinet Refinishing in Willow Springs: questions

My sink cabinet has water damage. Can you still refinish the kitchen?

It depends on how bad it is. If the bottom is swollen or soft, we price repairing or replacing that one box first, then refinishing the rest. If several boxes are failing, we tell you refinishing is the wrong answer.

Do you serve towns near Willow Springs?

Yes. We also refinish cabinets in Burr Ridge, Lemont, Palos Park and Western Springs.

Is a permit needed to refinish cabinets in Willow Springs?

Painting cabinets in place generally does not need one. If a repair grows into plumbing work, we check with the village and pull a permit where it is required.

How long until I can use the kitchen fully again?

Plan for several days with the kitchen partly out of use while the doors cure. We tell you the count before we start and book around the days we said.

How do I get on the schedule?

Call or text (815) 585-1750. A photo of the inside of your sink cabinet helps us know what we are walking into.
