In our experience at Carolina Home Fine Finishes, changing the appearance of your cabinets is a highly effective way to give your kitchen or bathroom a fresh look. However, you do not have to replace your existing cabinets in order to achieve this effect—instead, you can simply have them refinished. In this article, our team will provide an overview of how the cabinet refinishing process works so you know what to expect.
- Removal – The first step in cabinet refinishing is to remove the cabinet doors and drawer fronts. Once this is done, our team will begin preparing the cabinet components.
- Preparation – Our team will then get your cabinet parts ready to be refinished. Typically, this step of the cabinet refinishing process involves sanding the cabinet doors and drawer fronts, as well as the cabinet facings, to remove the old finish and expose the raw wood beneath. If necessary, we will also prime the cabinet parts to get them ready for the new finish.
- Finish Application – Once the cabinet components are ready, our team will apply the finish of your choice. We offer stain, lacquer, paint, and other finishes to help you achieve the exact look you have in mind. Our team will make sure your cabinets get even coverage of the new finish so they look their very best.
- Reassembly – The final step in cabinet refinishing is to put your cabinets back together. Our team will reinstall the cabinet doors and drawer fronts, leaving your cabinets looking like new.
