Cabinet problems we fix in Arlington Heights

Cabinets drive the look and the function of a kitchen. Our Arlington Heights crews paint, reface, repair and install them, so you get the right fix instead of the most expensive one.

New appliance doesn't fit

A larger fridge or a new microwave needs a resized opening — we modify cabinets instead of replacing them.

An Arlington Heights 1950s ranch: before and after

What bothered the owners most: cabinets that looked their age. Finished kitchen: new five-piece shaker doors in muted blue-gray on the existing boxes with brushed nickel bar pulls.

Kitchen Cabinet Services questions from Arlington Heights homeowners

Can you fix just one damaged cabinet?
Yes. We replace a single base or door and match it; repainting nearby doors hides any difference.
Can damaged kitchen cabinets be repaired?
Most damage can: loose hinges, broken drawers, cracked doors, water-swollen panels. We'll tell you when replacing one cabinet is smarter.
Should I paint, reface or replace my cabinets?
Look at the boxes and the layout. Both fine — paint or reface. Either one failing — replace.
Can you match my existing cabinets?
We match paint and stain closely; for a perfect match we finish all the cabinets together.
Refacing or painting — which should I choose?
Choose painting to keep your doors and change color, refacing to get new doors in a new style.
Do Arlington Heights condo associations need to approve kitchen work?
Associations usually set rules for work hours, elevators, deliveries and insurance, and many require approval for plumbing, electrical or structural changes. We provide the certificate of insurance and follow the building's rules.
Do I need a Arlington Heights-registered contractor for kitchen work?
The Village of Arlington Heights contractor license number must be listed on permit applications; homeowners doing their own work file a Homeowner as General Contractor form. We take care of that before work starts.
Do I need a permit for kitchen work in Arlington Heights?
It depends on the scope. Arlington Heights's rule in short: Remodel permit applications (shown here via a basement remodel checklist dated 2020) require a building permit application, plans and a contractor proposal; plumbing and electrical permit applications are added if applicable. We handle the permit when one is needed with Building & Life Safety Department.
Do you work in my part of Arlington Heights?
Yes. Our crews work across Arlington Heights — ZIP 60004, 60005 — and nearby Mount Prospect, Palatine, Buffalo Grove.
