"We recently had our kitchen cabinets, which were installed nearly 30 years ago, restained and refinished by Cabinet Refresh. They had yellowed and could no longer be cleaned. The men were very easy to work with and tried hard to come up with a new stain that we would be happy with. They arrived on time each morning and the job was done in the 5 days we were promised. We have several other rooms that need to be redone also, and we wouldn’t hesitate to use them for those projects."

"Evolution contracting built our patio cover from the ground up, including the roofing material and shingles. They did an outstanding job. I would definitely recommend them and hire them again for my own work."

"Tristar Finish Carpentry did a great job. They quickly assessed portions of my material order (purchased separately) and identified mistakes made by the cabinet provider s shipping department. They installed the correct materials then proactively rescheduled a return to complete the installation when the balance of the materials arrived a few weeks later. Very professional and honest."

"Wow. Had a full kitchen cabinet refresh / paint. I had no idea how big of a project this would end up being. This team came in quickly and crushed it. Kitchen looks like a million bucks. Fantastic. Arman was very available. Sometimes the painters were 30-45 min late but over the course of a 2 week project - no big deal. Price was more then excepted but he came in under than other contractors. Would hire again."

"McCoy Construction is one of the most professional contractors we have ever dealt with. We needed some repairs and revisions on our vacation home maple kitchen cabinets. The job estimate was thorough and reasonable. They were very helpful when additional issues arose. They always notified when they were coming and when they were leaving. We received pictures showing the progress on a regular basis. McCoy and Michael Hodges kept us informed of all the steps along the way, were timely and always cleaned up when they left! The quality of their work was exceptional. I would highly recommend them for just about any construction project."

"Leo was very helpful and quick to respond. We’re happy with how our 2 bathrooms turned out. Project was completed within the time promised. Our only complaint is that the workers did not clean up very well. But overall, we’re satisfied and we’ll use them again."

Cabinet Contractors FAQs, answered by experts

You can use a soft-close hinge adapter on existing cabinet doors instead of buying new soft-close hinges. If you want soft-close cabinet doors on a budget, invest in the small adapters that allow you to convert an existing hinge to a soft-close style. They’re much less expensive than new soft-close hinges and are simpler to install. However, they don’t always last as long. 

It depends on whether you buy pre-made stacked cabinets or construct them from scratch. If you build added cabinets from scratch, you can expect it to take several hours or days to build each one and then another two to three days for installation. Then, after painting your new cabinets, you should allow a few weeks for the paint to dry thoroughly before installing them over your existing cabinets.

Whether you install flooring before or after kitchen cabinets depends primarily on the type of flooring you are using. For materials like hardwood, tile, and sheet flooring, the best practice is to install the flooring first. This ensures the cabinets are installed at the correct height and on a stable surface. However, you should not install cabinets on top of floating floors, such as laminate or luxury vinyl plank (LVP). These types of flooring need room to expand and contract with temperature and humidity changes. Placing heavy cabinets on top can restrict this movement, potentially causing the floor to buckle and making the cabinets unstable. For floating floors, install the cabinets first and then lay the flooring up to them. Other reasons to consider installing cabinets before the flooring include saving money on materials (since you won't need flooring under the cabinets) and avoiding potential damage to your new floor during cabinet installation. Additionally, installing cabinets directly on the subfloor might prevent voiding your flooring's warranty.

If there is only a small mold problem, then you might be able to remove it and save the kitchen cabinets by acting fast. However, if the mold is severe, has spread to other parts of your kitchen or home, or is impacting sensitive family members, then you should replace the cabinets. A kitchen cabinet installation costs between $2,000 and $11,100, or $6,400 on average.

Walls in good condition with an even surface should be fine for frameless cabinet installation. Older, uneven, or warped walls could create problems. Your studs and their spacing are especially important, since frameless cabinets rely so much on wall attachments. Call in a professional installer for a consultation if you aren’t sure.
