Refinishing is the quickest, most affordable update you can make to your kitchen cabinets.

If you're considering updating your kitchen cabinets, then one option you should really consider is refinishing. Refinishing involves cleaning and sanding the existing doors, frames, drawer fronts, panels and exposed ends, and recoating them in a new solid colour finish. Practically any colour can be used, from bright whites to pitch black. You can also choose to have your cabinets refinished in any of our specialty finishes, which include chalked, glazed or antiqued.

Why refinish?

• Quick turnover - most kitchens can be refinished within a week
• Less hassle - oftentimes your cupboards don't even need to be emptied
• Huge savings when compared with refacing or replacing
• Thousands of colours and multiple finish options available
• Almost any type of cabinetry can be refinished, from wood to melamine
• Reduces waste - existing cabinetry is refinished rather than thrown away

Basically, if you're happy with your kitchen layout, and your cabinets are in good condition, then refinishing your existing cabinets is going to save you thousands of dollars when compared with either refacing or replacing your cabinetry. Another advantage is the relatively quick turnover. While a complete replacement of your kitchen cabinets can take months, refinishing can take less than a week, and we only need to be in your home for a day or two to refinish the cabinet boxes.

If your cabinets are of the oak variety, then you may want to read this article, since there are a limited number of refinishing options for such a deep grained wood. If you'd prefer to keep the wood grain look on your cabinets, or your door style is looking a little dated, then you might be interested in our redooring or refacing services.
