We handle every kind of cabinet work in Oak Brook: a new color, new doors, fixed hinges and drawers, extra storage or a full set of new cabinets. Start with the problem below and we'll point you to the right fix.
Sagging doors and loose hinges
Most sagging doors need new hinges, filled screw holes and an adjustment — a short repair visit.
Kitchen Cabinet & Drawer Repair →Odd-sized spaces
Slanted ceilings, alcoves and out-of-square walls get cabinets built to fit them exactly.
Custom Kitchen Cabinets →Water-damaged sink base
A swollen, stained sink base from a slow leak — we fix the leak and repair or replace the base cabinet.
Kitchen Cabinet & Drawer Repair →Door style you don't like
Cathedral arches and raised panels date a kitchen. New doors in a Shaker or slab style change it on the same boxes.

Thermofoil film lifts near heat and can't be fixed with paint. We replace the doors and fronts and leave the boxes in place.

Roll-out shelves, a pull-out pantry and drawer organizers often add more usable space than new cabinets would.

A split panel or a cracked rail can often be glued and clamped; if not, we make a matching replacement door.

Kitchen Cabinet Services questions from Oak Brook homeowners
Should I paint, reface or replace my cabinets?
If the boxes are solid and you like the layout, paint or reface. If boxes are damaged or the layout doesn't work, replace.
Is it cheaper to reface or replace cabinets?
Refacing is usually much less than full replacement because the boxes, counters and plumbing stay in place.
What is the downside of cabinet refacing?
It doesn't change the layout or fix damaged boxes, and the interiors stay as they are.
Can you add soft-close to my cabinets?
Usually yes, with new hinges and slides that fit your existing boxes.
How long does refacing take?
A few working days after the new doors arrive.
Oak Brook contractor registration: do kitchen contractors need it?
Oak Brook does not require contractor registration; no village-specific requirements for residential alterations. We take care of that before work starts.
Do I need a permit for kitchen work in Oak Brook?
It depends on the scope. Oak Brook's rule in short: Village publishes a Residential Permit Requirement Listing; its Residential Alteration category requires contract/scope of work, architectural plans and plat of survey. We handle the permit when one is needed with Development Services (Building).
Do you work in my part of Oak Brook?
Yes. Our crews work across Oak Brook — ZIP 60523 — and nearby Villa Park, Lombard, Elmhurst.
