Accentuating Your Island with Custom Color Refinishing

It only takes a mini-makeover to make a big impact on the accent pieces in your home. While we often refinish an entire kitchen, its not necessarily imperative for that refreshed and rejuvenated look! At the end of April, Nhance Wood Refinishing completed a short and sweet project in Winston-Salem showcasing this concept. This kitchen is large, has existing cabinetry with detailed a design and layout but the additions they made to their island did not stand out per their expectations. They opted for a subtle light gray to refinish their island and left the remainder of the cabinets a cognac maple color. It was the perfect choice to really make their island pop!

Cabinet Refacing vs Cabinet Refinishing

A common question for our company: What are the differences between cabinet refacing and cabinet refinishing?

As you can see, a bit more material and labor are required in cabinet refacing. As such, the price for cabinet refinishing is significantly lower. (Read our Cabinet Refinishing Cost Guide for more info on pricing) Nhance Wood Refinishing wants our customers to get the remodeled kitchen of their dreams without breaking the bank. Our cabinet door replacement utilizes the benefits of replacing old and outdated door/profile styles, without the added expense of refacing the frames.
