02Why Lake Forest Calls Us

Why Lake Forest Homeowners Choose Us for Cabinet Refinishing

Kitchen cabinets take a beating — grease, grime, kid fingerprints, and years of cooking. You can't just roll paint over that and call it done. Here's how we do it right.

Spray finish, not brush marks

We spray every door and frame with a fine-finish gun. The result is smooth as a new cabinet from the showroom.

We degrease before we sand

Kitchen grease hides in corners. We clean every surface twice so the new paint actually sticks. No peeling down the road.

Doors come off the hinges

Every door and drawer comes off and gets sprayed in our mobile setup. No overspray on your counters.

Your kitchen stays usable

We work in zones so you still have access to parts of your kitchen during the job.

Durable, washable finish

We use cabinet-grade paint that stands up to wiping. You can clean your cabinets without ruining the paint.

A Local Cabinet Refinisher Who Knows Lake Forest Kitchens

Lake Forest has some gorgeous older homes with original wood cabinetry. We refinish them without sanding through the veneer.

We work in the neighborhoods near Lake Forest High School, the homes off Waukegan Road, and the older estates closer to the lake. Our shop is in Franklin Park — just a quick 10-minute drive — so we're never late and never send a subcontractor you haven't met.

Cabinet work is one part of what we do in Lake County. See everything on our Lake Forest painting services page, or check the rest of our Lake County service area.
