WHAT TO ASK A CABINET REFINISHER BEFORE YOU HIRE THEM

Choosing the right professional to transform your kitchen is a big decision. To ensure you get beautiful, long-lasting results, ensure you get answers to these essential questions:

WHAT IS YOUR EXACT PREPARATION PROCESS?

A great finish is 80% preparation. Ask if they remove the doors and drawer fronts to work on them in a controlled spray booth, or if they do everything inside your home. They should also explain how they clean off kitchen grease, sand the surfaces, and apply specialized primer to ensure the new finish sticks perfectly.

WHAT KIND OF PAINT OR COATING DO YOU USE?

Standard wall paint will quickly chip and peel on kitchen cabinets. Professional refinishers should use industrial-grade coatings, such as KCMA-certified (Kitchen Cabinet Manufacturers Association) polyurethane or Italian pigmented lacquers. These finishes are specifically engineered to withstand moisture, oils, and daily wear and tear.

WILL I RECEIVE A DETAILED, SIGNED CONTRACT GUARANTEEING THE WORK?

Never rely on verbal agreements. A professional contractor should provide a written contract that explicitly outlines the entire scope of work, materials used, payment schedule, and a guarantee that all specified project details will be completed as promised.

HOW WILL YOU PROTECT THE REST OF MY HOME?

Kitchen masking is a critical step. Your contractor should explain how they plan to isolate the kitchen using plastic sheeting, cover your countertops, protect your appliances, and mask off your floors.

HOW DO YOU MANAGE FUMES AND DUST?

Sanding creates dust, and professional coatings can have strong odors. Ask if they use dust-collecting sanders and specialized exhaust fans to vent fumes safely out of your home while they spray the cabinet boxes.

ARE YOU FULLY INSURED?

Never skip this question. A reputable professional will gladly provide proof of liability insurance and worker's compensation. This protects your home and ensures you are not liable if an accident occurs on your property.

DO YOU OFFER A WARRANTY ON YOUR WORKMANSHIP?

True professionals stand behind their work. Ask if they offer a warranty against premature peeling or chipping, what exactly it covers, and how long it lasts.
