Cabinet problems we fix in St. Charles
Cabinets drive the look and the function of a kitchen. Our St. Charles crews paint, reface, repair and install them, so you get the right fix instead of the most expensive one.
Sagging doors and loose hinges
Doors that rub, sag or won't close can usually be fixed with new hinges and proper adjustment.
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
Sink cabinet floor soft or swollen? We replace the damaged panel or the whole base to match.
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.
Cabinet Door & Drawer Front Replacement →Not enough storage
Pull-outs, pantry systems, deep drawers and cabinets to the ceiling add storage without a remodel.
Kitchen Storage & Pantry Solutions →Dated color or wood tone
Cabinets in good shape but the wrong color? A painted or re-stained finish changes the whole kitchen in about a week.

Kitchen Cabinet Services questions from St. Charles homeowners
How long does refacing take?
Doors are made first; installation on site is usually a few days.
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 fix just one damaged cabinet?
Yes — a single sink base or damaged door can be replaced and matched.
Is it cheaper to reface or replace cabinets?
Refacing is the budget option when the boxes are sound; replacement makes sense when they are not.
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.
St. Charles contractor registration: do kitchen contractors need it?
No registration fee; contractor requirements (general contractor certificate of insurance, with City as certificate holder) must be submitted before a permit is issued. We take care of that before work starts.
Do I need a permit for kitchen work in St. Charles?
It depends on the scope. St. Charles's rule in short: Permits required for construction, alteration, repair or demolition of any structure; major residential projects including remodels require 5 sets of drawings. We handle the permit when one is needed with Building Division, Community Development, 2 E. Main St..
Do you work in my part of St. Charles?
Yes. Our crews work across St. Charles — ZIP 60174, 60175 — and nearby Geneva, West Chicago, Batavia.
