Q: How do I maintain installed cabinets?

• <div><p>Clean regularly, avoid harsh chemicals, and check hinges for proper alignment to ensure longevity.</p></div>

Q: Do you need to seal bathroom cabinets after painting?

• <div><p>You don&rsquo;t necessarily need to seal bathroom cabinets after painting, especially if you&rsquo;ve used a gloss or semigloss paint. But adding a coat of high-quality sealant can add a layer of protection against bathroom moisture that can cause the wood to swell or warp or allow mold and mildew growth.</p></div>

Q: Do cabinet makers still exist?

• <div><p>Yes, cabinet makers continue to fabricate custom kitchen and other household cabinets for new construction homes. Cabinet makers also replace and renovate existing kitchen cabinets. The cost tends to be higher than choosing manufactured cabinets from a major retailer, but you get the cabinets specially designed and made to fit the unique needs of your space. </p></div>

Q: Do you have to remove old stain before restaining kitchen cabinets?

• <div><p>Yes, remove the old stain on a cabinet before applying a new coat. To do so, clean the cabinet&rsquo;s exterior with soap, water, and a damp cloth. Then, use sandpaper or an electric sander to remove the old finish. This allows the new coat of stain to soak into the wood fully, lasting longer and creating a richer color.</p></div>

R.V. Not only paint the interior of our home. They also replaced the flooring of the whole house. Change the cabinets of the kitchen.. turn down the wall to make an island. I also upgraded the porch and extended it and make it larger.. I highly recommend them.

After setting the appointment they arrived 2 hours late. After inspecting the house I found dusty cabinets, drawers and lamps that were not cleaned. I am not happy with this service at all after paying $200.00 and the job was very simple cleaning.
