"We first used Lookswell more than 30 years ago when we lived in Chicago before heading out to Barrington to raise a family. We used many different painting contractors over the years in our home there. Two years ago, as empty nesters, we bought a condo in Evanston, which had recently been painted top to bottom in a dark beige. Wondering if Lookswell was still around and whether they'd make the trek to Evanston now, I googled them and was happy to see that they were indeed still in business after all those years. It was so good to meet up with Jim Scanlon again when he came out to look at the work we needed done - somehow he didn't look a day older after 30 years?! The following day Jim's office manager, Cindy, sent a detailed proposal via email and got us on the schedule. We did have to wait a month or so but were in no rush since I hadn't even picked paint colors yet. We didn't get any other bids because our experiences with Lookswell in the past had always been perfect and the price seemed very reasonable. The crew assigned to our job included a supervisor, Fernando, and an awesome group of painters - Alberto, Alex and Luis. Fermando would stop by regularly to check on the work underway. Our condo has two story ceilings which I assumed would be challenging but that Jim's crew handled with ease. Each morning they arrived at 8am and spent quite a bit of time prepping the work area with lots of protective plastic and carefully removing pictures and moving furniture. They were extremely careful and very tolerant of the fact I still hadn't selected a color (so many shades of white to choose from..) by the time they arrived to start the job. Fernando helped me pick a white that turned out to be perfect with the north light in our condo. Their next challenge was my inability to choose a shade of grey for a wide swath of wall that curves to become part of the ceiling right in the center of our living area. Fernando came to the rescue again, suggesting trying one of my choices to see if I liked it and if not, they'd repaint. I did indeed decide to go a shade darker after my first choice was up and they graciously repainted that very challenging area for me - with smiles on their faces to boot. Nothing was too much trouble - they removed lots of wall anchors and repaired all the holes left behind from shelves I'd decided would not be rehung in their previous locations. Alberto and Alex had all the tools necessary to remove any hardware necessary - every size allen wrench in existence it seemed. They somehow painted an area I didn't think could even be accessed - I have no idea how they were able to reach a deep and very narrow recessed slot where a set of floor to ceiling height glass pocket doors retract. But they did. I was out at the time they handled that challenging area so the how is still a mystery. We would not hesitate to call on Lookswell the next time we need anything painted and in fact plan to have them repaint or restain our Valcucine cabinets next. Just need to pick a color..."

"Best ever Nico was very meticulous and very pleasant to work with. Always cleaned up after work. I did an excellent job with the box frames. Thomas also did exceptional work on the cabinet doors. Both were very friendly and easy to work with. Helped me find the correct choice on soft-close hardware. They installed everything with no problem. Prices are very reasonable and much better than buying new cabinets or even having the doors refaced from Home depot. Saved over $6000.00.I am so happy with my new looking cabinets. It looks like a new kitchen. I went from oak to white cabinets. I would highly recommend Got a Painter and you will be very happy you did too. I love my kitchen. Thank you, Nico and Thomas, for a job well done."

"Frank and his crew were wonderful! They took our 35 year old kitchen with dark, outdated cabinets, awful tile, no space for a microwave and gave us a bright, beautiful, convenient kitchen that we absolutely love. It is a world of difference! They painted the cabinets a beautiful light grey & installed new cabinet hardware, installed new subway wall tiles and new white countertops with integrated sink, converted a pantry cabinet with pull-out drawers, and modernized the cabinet base, all within a very tight timeframe and at a comfortable price. They worked with us on the inevitable plan revisions and made great suggestions, all with good humor and patience. They were terrific!"

"Aziz was responsive, courteous, knowledgable, and skilled . I have had 2 recommended contractors no show for home repairs and I was getting discouraged. I reached out to Angi/Home Advisor and was matched with Aziz. He explained the repairs and showed me why the failed parts failed and explained why he performed the repairs he did. I trust him and plan to hire him again for a home improvement project when it's time."

"Christopherà ¢ s work is incredibly beautiful. He performed everything to the highest standard, and suggested coming back to tweak a few minor details to take our mudroom custom cabinets to the next level. He was very open to our design preferences and went to a number of places to help us achieve the look, quality and material vision we had in mind. We had initially hired him to do a custom hood in our kitchen and were beyond happy with the results. We would hire him again without a second thought."

"We were looking to have our cherry cabinets painted white and after interviewing 3 different companies it was hands down Mark at Cabinetrix... Mark the owner is a true professional. He talked through the project and he did the work himself. He finished the project when promised and the cabinets look like they were installed brand new! I would highly recommend!"

Cabinet Contractors FAQs, answered by experts

You aren’t obligated to tip cabinet contractors, but you can choose to do so if they went above and beyond and you want to show your gratitude. This is usually something in the ballpark of 10% to 15% of your total cost. As an alternative, you can provide snacks and drinks for workers and/or offer to serve as a reference for prospective customers.

Careful measurement is crucial—measure multiple times and account for hardware thickness, seasonal wood movement, and clearance requirements. Test-fit components before final assembly, and consider building one drawer as a prototype before cutting materials for multiple units.

In most cases, it’s more affordable to refinish your cabinets than replace them, with refinishing costs averaging $3,000 and replacement costs around $9,000. However, there are some instances in which it’s better to replace your cabinets, like if they’re an outdated style, badly damaged and beyond repair, or a sub-par material, like fiberboard. In all other cases, it’s usually a better idea to have a professional refinish them to save money and restore their original condition.

If you have a drawer larger than 30 inches, you should consider adding two pulls, but, again, this decision is up to personal preference. Any pro you work with on cabinet installation can help you determine how many pulls you need and where you should place them.

While most kitchen island installations do not require a permit, some situations do. Any major kitchen renovation will require one, and depending on your municipality, you might also need one if you install new plumbing or electrical work. 

Your kitchen island installation pro will be able to determine if you need a permit for your job, which can run you between $460 and $2,900, depending on the permits required.
