Q: What color should I have my cabinets painted?

• <div><p>With so many <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/kitchen-cabinet-colors.htm">color choices for cabinets</a>, you have many different ways to bring personality to your kitchen (or any other room where you are updating your cabinets). The color you choose to paint your cabinets should reflect your personal style but can also match existing wall colors or appliances. Some colors to choose from include:</p><ul><li><p>White</p></li><li><p>Navy</p></li><li><p>Grey</p></li><li><p>Green</p></li><li><p>Taupe</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: What are the two main types of cabinets?

• <div><p>The two main types of cabinets are face and faceless models. Faced cabinets have a front panel that gives structures additional strength but reduces the opening size, making them less accessible. Faceless cabinets look sleeker and are easier to get into, but they can be more challenging to install and may not be as sturdy. </p></div>

Q: Can you replace lower cabinets without removing the countertop?

• <div><p>It's possible to replace lower kitchen cabinets without removing the countertop. However, there are some special considerations to keep in mind. Expect to disassemble the existing cabinets without compromising the countertop's support. You might not be able to reuse the cabinets you remove. Next, you'll have to slightly modify the tops of the new cabinets and install blocking after installation to attach the base to the countertop.</p></div>

Q: What’s the difference between a scullery and a butler’s pantry?

• <div><p>There are key differences between a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/scullery-vs-butlers-pantry.htm">butler&rsquo;s pantry versus a scullery</a>. A butler's pantry, while much larger than a traditional pantry, is still a dry area primarily used for storage. A scullery, on the other hand, is basically an extra kitchen used for food prep, some storage, and dishware collection. Many sculleries have a dishwasher and sink to wash and store extra dishes, silverware, and servingware. </p></div>

Q: Will paint peel off laminate cabinets?

• <div><p>Preparation is the most crucial and, really, the only secret to a lasting paint job on laminate cabinets. Paint will peel off laminate surfaces that aren't clean and grease-free. Paint will also peel off if there isn't proper etching on the cabinet surfaces. Taking time to deep clean and lightly but thoroughly sand before priming and painting will greatly increase your chances of success and help keep the paint from peeling. </p></div>

On-time arrival, right to work, well mannered. Clean up could have been better, however, they did try. But could have been better.

Ray's staff was very nice to work with. Overall I'm very pleased with the project. They were short a handle for one of the cabinets and it took a long time to get one.

I remodeled my kitchen and wanted an island. Before I had about 3' of counterspace. Ron and his wife came and measured, gave me an estimate and then it was only between 3-4 weeks and my cabinets were ready. I live in an old Victorian that was built in 1881, therefore I had little to no...
