Cabinetry
Repair, refinish or replace your cabinets?
Start with what you want to change and the condition of the cabinetry already in place.
Separate appearance from function
Write down what is bothering you about the cabinets. Worn finishes, damaged areas and a layout that no longer works are different concerns. Being specific helps you explain what a successful result would look like.
Photograph the full cabinet run as well as the individual areas of concern. A close-up may show a damaged finish, while a wider view shows how the cabinetry fits into the room.
Consider the existing condition
Repair, refinishing and replacement are not interchangeable scopes. The condition of the cabinet components and the extent of the changes you want need to be considered before choosing a direction.
Avoid deciding on appearance alone. Describe issues with doors, drawers, fittings or surfaces, and mention previous repairs if you know about them. An assessment is needed to establish what work is suitable.
Explain what needs to stay
In a working commercial space, the surrounding finishes and day-to-day use can matter as much as the cabinets themselves. Identify the areas that need to remain in use and any timing restrictions.
If you are planning other changes in the same room, share those plans too. Cabinet work is easier to discuss when its relationship to the rest of the project is clear.
Start with a conversation
Premier Cabinetry & Design offers commercial cabinet repair and refinishing, as well as residential kitchen cabinet refacing. Share your location, photos and a description of the changes you have in mind.
The next step is to discuss the existing cabinetry and the scope. A suitable approach and a quote depend on the particular project, rather than a one-size-fits-all recommendation.
