Since it was the kitchen and it was going to take quite a few days we had John do the job while we were on vacation. John emailed every night with progress and even sent me a \"before\" picture of how bad one wall was before he repaired it. Every wall needed to be repaired with quite a bit of prep work was done to ensure the cabinets, appliances, and hard wood floors would be protected during the work. A plastic barrier was put up between all rooms leading into the kitchen. When we arrived home we were impressed, not only with the quality of the job, but how clean the kitchen looked. Plaster dust is a chore to deal with and I still need to clean every inch of that kitchen but what a treat to come home to a kitchen that looked so neat. John was quick to respond to our request for an estimate (we have 6 apartments in our condo building and I am the 3rd owner to use John), quick to give an estimate, and scheduled the work around our vacation time. John communicated very well using email (my preference) and answered any questions in a very timely manner. My neighbors said all workers in the crew were very professional and had respect for our building while they were going in and out to complete the job. My walls are back to their original 1903 beauty. I highly recommend United Wall Systems.

Don did a good job, was punctual and professional. He uses Four Seasons Air Specialists for making the custom materials for the job.
He and his son Jeff also did my kitchen remodel in 2008 and that went very well. Cabinets that they made were a very good match with existing cabinets. And the prices were reasonable.
They also did the addition to our home in 1992.

As the years progressed, the counters were sagging more and more and the cabinets were getting more worn and ugly. Cabinetpak was one of the last companies I called. They impressed me in so many ways. Bill, the guy who wrote up the bid was amazingly helpful. He noted that as long as I was redoing everything, I might want to get rid of my old appliances. Also he mentioned refrigerators are now taller, so it would be a good idea to adjust the cabinets for future taller fridges. I was impressed that the countertop and cabinet refacing were including in the same quote. I was offered me a few different price points ? like if I was doing this to sell my house soon, or if I planned on living in my house for a while. Denny, the contractor came out and spent hours carefully measuring so that everything would fit properly. He was also the one who installed my new cabinet doors plus many other things. Holy cow! Denny is amazing. Along with Bill, he had great ideas and solutions. For example, a range hood that wouldn?t fit back in he used olive oil as to not scratch the wood. Denny was amazing. As with any kind of house repair a wall had to be torn open and pipes refitted. I decided to us the subcontractors; plumbers, electricians, drywall installers and painters that Cabinetpak knows. They all have each other on speed dial and can confer about what is going on and where. Cabinetpak was able to get multiple contractors to my house the same day. I strongly suggest you use the companies they know. As long as everything was being replaced, I took Bill's recommendation and treated myself to gorgeous new appliances. Bill was correct that my old outdated appliances would look even uglier in the gorgeous new kitchen. The few days I had of having no kitchen made it totally worth it. I love love love my new kitchen.

Great! Mark, Greg, and staff were great to work with, extremely professional. The quality of their framing and trim work was excellent. There attention to detail and accuracy does lead to a slightly longer process. They won't measure for the cabinets, which were custom built, until the...

The kitchen cabinet doors came out very well, The table tops look very nice. My only concern was that the finish (varnish) was not as high a gloss as the rest of the table. Jane offered to take a look at them and talk to the "refinisher". After having them in our home for a few weeks, I...

Kitchen Cabinet Refacing questions, answered by experts
Costs vary by materials used, surface size, and complexity. Refacing can be cost-effective compared to full replacements, with an average range between $300 and $1,200.
Even the least DIY-savvy homeowner can replace cabinet hardware themselves. All you need is a drill, screwdriver, and a tape measure. However, always take the time to measure and fit carefully. Misalignment or dodgy drill holes can spoil the entire look of your cabinet makeover, and repairs or replacement cabinets can be costly.
Refacing your kitchen cabinets can be a wise investment if you want to enhance the look of your kitchen or sell your home in a competitive market. Upgrading your kitchen and bathrooms, from simple cabinet remodels to full remodels, usually leads to a faster sale compared to homes with outdated looks. Even if you don’t plan to sell, though, the pride and satisfaction you’ll feel can make this project more than worthwhile.
It is cheaper to paint kitchen cabinets than to replace them. Painting costs range from $400 to $1,300, based on the size and complexity of the project and the average costs in your area. In contrast, replacing kitchen cabinets can cost several thousand dollars, including materials, installation, and potential modifications to countertops and plumbing.
How much cheaper it is to replace your cabinet doors depends on your needs. If you’re looking to spruce up the look and feel of your kitchen, then you can make cosmetic adjustments to your existing doors, like installing new knobs or a fresh coat of paint. Cabinets can be some of the most costly parts of a kitchen remodel, but if there’s structural damage regarding your doors, then replacing them is your best option.
