Custom Home Finishes is a small up and coming business established in Spring of 2017. Owned and run by me, Guy Hammink. Quality is paramount to me and my company, and to ensure that I do all the work myself. There is no disconnect between who you talk to and who shows up and does the work. I communicate with clients regularly about how progress is coming, if anything unexpected in the scale or scope of the job arises, and I'm flexible about adding or subtracting levels of detail to achieve the price range you're looking for. I take jobs from all over the Twin Cities and surrounding suburbs. Specializing in single family home renovations, refinishing woodwork (enamel or stain cabinets, doors, trim, etc.) and 3 story and under exteriors.

"Guy worked closely with me insetting what I wanted done. He gave me a reasonable bid and excellent work."

I work with customers to get an understanding of how they envision their kitchen space, give suggestions on improving functionality if warranted, and provide an estimate. Should you decide to progress with your project, I reface the existing cabinets with 1/4" hardwood to the front of your existing cabinets and install brand new doors and drawer fronts to give your kitchen an entirely new look. I can provide you with a custom stain or paint color of your choice, as well as, color match something existing in your home. Because every home is unique, pricing is based on your kitchen design. I am happy to provide an estimate for interested customers. Please contact me through email at: [email protected] or call me at: 612.760.1440

Cabinet Refacing and Refinishing questions, answered by experts

Small to medium-sized cabinetry typically takes three to five days, whereas large cabinetry takes around seven days. The complete process includes:

  • Removing cabinet doors, drawers, and hardware.

  • Removing the existing stain or paint.

  • Sanding cabinet frames, doors, and drawers.

  • Staining each side of the cabinetry one at a time. You’ll have to wait for the first side to dry before staining the other side.

  • Waiting for the doors, drawers, and frames to dry fully.

  • Reattaching hardware and hinges.

  • Putting the doors and drawers back on the cabinet boxes.

Choosing the right paint involves selecting durable products that resist moisture and offer a finish suited to the kitchen environment. These finishes are often semi-gloss or satin for ease of cleaning.

Issues include warped doors, broken hinges, or misaligned drawers.

Removing the original paint or stain before refinishing is a good idea, as it ensures the new finish bonds strongly to the wood. If you skip the stripping or sanding step, the new finish may peel or flake away from the railing easily. Using a wood stripper will completely remove the old stain or paint while sanding will help to prime the surface.

Clean regularly, avoid harsh chemicals, and check hinges for proper alignment to ensure longevity.
