Refinishing kitchen cabinets
Comments (94)depends if you already know what you are doing :) I refinished my kitchen cabinets at our previous house 1989 and they turned out really nice. I refinish furniture for a hobby. I also bought unfinished higher end Cherry cabinets and stained and finished them myself :) I used General Finished Enduro Var. But, if you've never worked with any refinishing products before, doing your cabinets is not the first place to start to learn. caroltog, that is an outrageous price for refacing. It's costing me less to buy all new Conestoga Wood cabinets from the Cabinet Joint or any business that sells Conestoga cabinets....See MoreWhat companies make grey painted kitchen cabinets?
Comments (14)Upfront there are lots of online places I would be skeptical of ordering from. Conestoga is not a typical RTA cabinet company. In fact they do not sell to consumers. They make cabinet parts for brands like Schuler and I believe Thomasville. So while they do not have a showroom, you can go to Lowes and look at the Schuler doors and see the high quality of workmanship done by Conestoga. Conestoga cabinets have to be purchased from an authorized reseller. They are shipped flat packed since they are RTA cabinets, which actually means less chance of damage during shipping. You also have 10 business days to notify if there are damaged or missing cabinets. We looked at Schuler and liked the quality and Thomasville also has good quality. All plywood construction vs particleboard was important to us but when everything was figured up the cost was high. A final deciding point for us is that we did not have room to store preassembled cabinets, whereas flat packs were easy to store. My advice would be go to HD, have them design and give you a quote on the grey Thomasville cabinets, and using that same design and cabinet configuration use the build a quote tool online at The Cabinet Authority. We chose paint grade maple since our cabinets were painted. We chose all plywood construction, and drawers made of birch (drawers are preassembled ). Face frames, doors and drawer fronts are maple. Prices vary a lot based on door styles. I would then compare cost of Thomasville including shipping with Conestoga from The Cabinet Authority, and decide if the price difference is worth the effort to assemble them or the cost to have a contractor assemble them. I spent 45 minutes on my first cabinet and about 20 minutes after that. I saved a minimum of $8-10,000 off comparable Schuler cabinets. Our cabinets cost similar to Shenandoah or American Woodmark but the quality was much higher....See MoreSW Repose Grey
Comments (3)We are using requisite grey, and I think it's pretty similar - not sure - but we are using oyster bay in kitchen and backdrop for accent wall, both SW paints....See MoreKitchen
