Process begins with removal of existing doors, moldings & drawer fronts, ( if new drawer
boxes are not included ).
Existing cabinets are prepared for new material to be applied ( wood veneers or
laminate ).
The complete exterior of existing cabinets is refaced, new moldings fabricated from same
wood species you have selected are applied, where appropriate.
Note, when using wood veneers all material, doors, & moldings, are stained & finished
prior to installing in your kitchen.
Material whether veneer, or laminate, glue is applied to cabinets & material to be applied
& adhered to cabinets creating a tremendous bond that is guaranteed to not come
unglued.
Upon completion of cabinet refacing, installation of moldings, doors & drawer fronts are
installed.
Note all doors, & materials used, are custom fabricated & finished, to the specifications of
your kitchen.
