What about El Cajon's local conditions?
El Cajon is mostly 1950s-80s single-family and multi-family with some new custom on the east end, and full remodels here typically run $30,000-$75,000. Hotter summers, dust, and limited electrical capacity in the older stock mean the crews we send often upgrade panel capacity for induction ranges and run dedicated 20-amp small-appliance circuits to bring kitchens up to current code.. The crews we match you with account for local conditions on every job.
Is cabinet refinishing the same as cabinet refacing?
No. Refinishing sands and re-stains or repaints the doors you already have. Refacing replaces the doors and drawer fronts and puts fresh veneer on the boxes, so the style, color, and hardware all change together. The crews we match you with in El Cajon handle refacing and full cabinet replacement, not stain-only refinishing. If your boxes are solid and you only want a new look, refacing is usually the better value.
