How long do professionally painted cabinets last?

• <div><p>Professionally painted cabinets should last anywhere from eight to 10 years. However, your painted kitchen cabinets require maintenance and upkeep—paint attracts dirt, grime, and dust. So you’ll need to clean your cabinets regularly and fix any damage immediately.</p></div>

What are the differences between MDF and solid wood?

• <div><p>When comparing wood versus MDF, there are some widespread misconceptions that solid wood is more reliable and durable. Despite this common belief, wood isn't always a superior choice and MDF may be a better building material choice in some cases. Here are some examples:</p><ul><li><p>MDF is more affordable than wood. You can buy MDF for as low as one-quarter of the wood price.</p></li><li><p>MDF is a smooth surface with no knots or woodgrain, which makes it easier to finish and cut with a saw. </p></li><li><p>MDF is a standard choice for shelving and trim.</p></li><li><p>Unlike MDF, solid wood isn't the best option for cabinets or drawers. It can shrink, crack, or bend in response to changes in temperature and humidity, while MDF has a high moisture and fire resistance level and is less likely to break or warp.</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: What is the difference between custom and semi-custom cabinets?

• <div><p>There are a few key <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/stock-custom-how-choose-best-cabinets.htm">differences between custom and semi-custom cabinets</a>. While custom cabinets offer complete customization, semi-custom cabinets are less personalized, offering fewer paint color, finish, and hardware choices. In addition, custom cabinets typically take longer to install due to the build time, whereas semi-custom cabinets are prefabricated and therefore faster to install. </p></div>

Q: Do cabinet repairs include warranties?

• <div><p>Many contractors offer warranties for repair work. Confirm terms before hiring.</p></div>

Q: How long do cabinets last?

• <div><p>Cabinets should last about <b>20 years</b>. Of course, the total lifespan of your cabinet depends on the wear and tear it&rsquo;s put through&mdash;the more use and handling, the faster it's prone to needing repair. When looking at your cabinets, look for the following to determine if they need to be repaired or replaced:</p><ul><li><p>Scratches or dents </p></li><li><p>Water damage</p></li><li><p>Unpleasant smells </p></li><li><p>Outdated cabinetry</p></li><li><p>Continuous dirty or dingy look </p></li></ul><p></p></div>
