"After dealing with frequent roof repairs, we finally decided on a complete replacement for our Livermore home. Avi kept us informed every step of the way, and the finished roof exceeded our expectations. It's made a noticeable difference during hot summer days."

"These guys are professional, honest and friendly. They did a top notch paint job on my Mom's condo at a fair price. She was really happy with their work and hired them back for a demo job, which also went really well. They are one of the only companies we worked with during her renovation that were always on time and didn't flake out. We really appreciate these guys and highly recommend."

"I hired this contractor for a pergola rebuild due to water damage. Chris the owner is a finish carpenter and does extremely high quality work. Came out on a Saturday started the job on Monday and it extended for nearly 2 weeks. He was very meticulous in his planning and execution. Also had to work in harmony with a roofer handling that part of the repair. A challenge occurred in accommodating the structure and attaching the gutters and Chris came up with the ideal plan. Chris worked with a helper who was qualified as well for the work delegated to him. I am extremely pleased with the outcome and certainly would hire Chris again as appropriate."

"The men who worked on my project were experienced professionals in their areas of work. They were on time, worked carefully and quickly and turned a mess back into a finished room. They moved furniture, hung a protective barrier and vacuumed after they were done. I have the highest praise for them. Two days after they were done, we had a good rain. Usually I'd look to see where the new leak was. No leak! Can't do better than that!"

Cabinet Refacing and Refinishing questions, answered by experts

Any of your garage shelves should be able to hold heavier loads, but it’s best to place heavier items on middle shelves. The only reason for this is to prevent injury—lifting heavy loads from down low requires squatting or bending over, which can lead to back injury, and lifting heavy loads off of high shelves in the garage can be especially dangerous if you drop them.

Since there are many methods of repairing your cabinets, including refacing and refinishing, it can be tricky to know when to replace or fix your existing cabinets. Generally, it’s best to repair your existing cabinets when the cabinet boxes are in good condition. Additionally, this option is best when you’re being budget-friendly or remodeling. 

Replacing your cabinets is best when you’re changing the layout of the room or when the cabinet boxes are in rough shape. It’s also best to replace your cabinets if you need more storage space, as this will remove the existing cabinets for new ones.

On average, it costs about 30% to 50% less to reface than to replace custom or semi-custom cabinets. However, the most affordable cabinet replacement projects tend to cost about the same amount as the average cabinet refacing project. These are replacement projects that involve pre-made stock cabinet styles rather than custom designs.

DIY refacing is possible if you're skilled in precise measurements, cutting, and finishing, but hiring professionals ensures a seamless finish and durable results.

Whether to reface or paint comes down to personal preference. Refacing strikes a convenient balance between being more affordable than replacing cabinets and longer-lasting than painting them. Furthermore, it allows homeowners to completely change the aesthetic of their cabinets and still paint them if they choose to. If money was no object, refacing is the better option. However, it’s more expensive and time-consuming than painting. Painting remains an effective way to revamp your cabinets, both in look and longevity, without spending a ton of money.
