Cabinet Refinishing for Avondale Homes
If your kitchen in Avondale, PA still has the cabinets it was built with, refinishing is often the simplest way to update it. Avondale borough is mostly older homes, with more than half built before 1940 and many Victorian-era twins and single homes, while the surrounding 19311 area is much newer and built largely around 2000 in golf and HOA communities. Original oak and worn builder-grade finishes can both be refinished with paint, which keeps the layout and countertops you have and changes the look of the whole room.
Avondale sees muggy summers and cold winters with regular freeze-thaw cycles, and kitchens and bathrooms add steam and grease on top of that, which is hard on any cabinet finish. That's why every door is degreased, sanded and primed with a bonding primer before the color coats go on. Same day estimates are available, and the work is backed by our 1-year warranty.

Finishes wear through first around handles, sinks and the stove. Refinishing brings back a clean, even surface.
Solid Cabinets Worth Keeping

Outdoors, temperature and rain matter most: stain goes on best between about 50°F and 90°F with no rain expected for a day.
