Kitchens in Plano
Much of Plano was built in the 1980s and 1990s, and West Plano neighborhoods like Deerfield, Willow Bend, and Hunters Glen are full of well-built homes from that era. Many kitchens are original, or were updated with new counters while keeping the cabinets.
The typical Plano kitchen of that period has solid oak or maple cabinetry, often honey oak, with cathedral-arch or raised-panel doors. The construction is sound; the color and door style are what date it.
Refinish or Kitchen Facelift?
If the doors are simple enough to keep, refinishing in a modern color, with new hardware, makes an oak kitchen feel entirely different, and leaves your counters and backsplash untouched.
Cathedral-arch doors are harder to modernize with paint alone. A Kitchen Facelift replaces them with custom-built shaker or slab doors from our local cabinetmaker and refinishes the oak boxes to match, which is often the biggest change for the money in a Plano kitchen.
Not sure which? That's what the consultation is for. See how a Kitchen Facelift works, or read Paint or Replace for an honest comparison.

Working in your home
Many Plano kitchens have newer granite or quartz counters on original cabinets. Refinishing works around them: counters, backsplash, floors, and appliances are covered and protected, the work area is sealed off, and dust extraction runs during sanding.

From Plano homeowners
Is it worth refinishing a 1990s oak kitchen?
Usually, if the boxes are solid and the layout works. Oak cabinetry from that era is often better built than the budget cabinets that would replace it, and refinishing or a Kitchen Facelift costs a fraction of new cabinetry.
See example projectsWill the oak grain show through the paint?
Oak has an open grain that can show as texture under paint. Some people like it; others want a perfectly smooth finish. We'll talk through the options at the consultation and show you the result on a sample door.
What can we do about cathedral-arch doors?
Painted arches can work in a traditional room, but most homeowners who want a modern look choose a Kitchen Facelift: new shaker or slab doors on the existing boxes. We'll show you both options at the consultation.
