Common questions about costs and estimates for this service.
To measure the square footage, calculate the total surface area of all cabinet doors, drawer fronts, and any exposed cabinet boxes or end panels that will be refinished. For doors and drawers, measure height by width and add them up. Sometimes, contractors estimate by cabinet count, but square footage is more precise for refinishing.
Cabinet refinishing involves cleaning, sanding, and applying new paint or stain to the existing cabinet boxes, doors, and drawer fronts. Cabinet refacing involves replacing the doors and drawer fronts entirely and applying new veneer to the existing cabinet boxes, which can be significantly more expensive, with averages around $15,000.
Common factors include unexpected repairs needed for damaged cabinet structures, client changes to color or finish mid-project, complications with removing old finishes, or a significant increase in the scope of work (e.g., adding more cabinets than initially agreed upon).
It's best to discuss hardware with the client. While refinishing itself doesn't typically include new hardware, it's a common upgrade. You can offer it as an add-on service or clearly state that hardware is the client's responsibility. Be sure to include the labor for removal and reinstallation of existing hardware in your base quote.
The duration depends on the size of the kitchen, the complexity of the cabinetry, and the chosen finishing process. Generally, a professional refinishing job for an average-sized kitchen can take anywhere from 3 to 7 days, allowing for proper drying and curing times between coats.
