Cabinet Refinishing in LaPlace, LA

Handing doors back before they are hard is how cabinet work fails. Soft finish plus daily handling equals chipped edges within months, so a kitchen quoted honestly in July carries more days than the same kitchen in November and we build that in instead of explaining it afterwards.

Where a house has taken water, the boxes get checked before anything else. Refinishing a carcass that is still carrying moisture is money spent on a surface that will not hold it.

The method is the same as everywhere. Doors and drawer fronts off and numbered, hardware off instead of being cut around, everything degreased properly because no primer sticks through cooking oil, then sand, prime and thin coats.

Ventilation is worth raising on a LaPlace kitchen specifically. A room generating steam every evening, in a parish where the outside air already carries moisture from two directions, dries more slowly than the same room would inland, and that affects both the cure while we are working and how the finish lives afterwards. An extractor that actually vents outside is worth more here than an extra coat.

Boxes are done in place. You lose the cupboards, not the room.

Hinges get checked while the doors are off, because a door that has dropped will never sit square again however well its face has been sprayed, and it is far cheaper to sort while everything is already apart and numbered on a bench than to come back for it later once the kitchen has been put back together.
