The 3 R’s of Cabinet Care: Repair, Refinish, Restore


Cabinets are one of the most useful and eye-catching parts of any house. Your kitchen and bathroom cabinets allow you to store supplies and protect them from any contamination.

The look of your cabinets adds to the aesthetic appeal of your house, and they’re often one of the first things that people notice about your home.

But when did you last pay a little extra attention to them? The secret to increasing your cabinets’ life and enhancing both their functionality and appearance is proper maintenance.

By following the 3 R’s of cabinet care, you can ensure that you’re taking good care of your cabinets.

Repair

Your kitchen cabinets wear out over time and the most common issues that you may face with them are broken latches, lose door hinges and worn-out drawer slides. These are often very easy to fix, and a cabinet repair service provider like On Site Wood Wizard will be able to mend them with a safe and effective technique.

But make sure you don’t ignore the seemingly small issues with your cabinets and call a repair service provider promptly. A minor problem can increase and cause irreparable damage.


Refinish

If you want to bid farewell to your chipped, broken, or outdated cabinets, maybe you should consider your decision again. A quality refinishing job can bring the shine back to your cabinets and can extend their life. Besides, it’s cheaper than reinstallation and easier to manage.

Here are some tips that will help you better prepare for your cabinet refinishing:

· Have a clear understanding of how you want your cabinets to look like in mind.
· Communicate these requirements clearly to your refinishing servicepeople.
· Set up a temporary kitchen where you can work while your kitchen cabinets get refinished.
· The varnish takes 24 hours to dry, so make sure that you don’t rush and give it its due time.
· Buy disposable supplies that will help you clean the mess, and you can throw them out after use.

Restore


The wear and tear in your wooden cabinets can be restored in many ways. If they’ve become stained over the years, your service provider can help you get a lighter or darker tone according to your liking.

You can also get them painted, which will help repair any dent, scratch, or other surface damages. Just ask your service provider, and they should be able to meet your requirements!
