Cabinet Refinishing in Southlake
and Kitchen Facelifts.
Cabinet refinishing & painting in Southlake
Huewerk refinishes Southlake kitchens in place, taking the stained maple, cherry, and alder common in the area's 1990s to 2010s homes to a sprayed, factory-smooth color, or adding custom-built new doors with a Kitchen Facelift. It starts with a free consultation in your home.

Kitchens in Southlake
Most Southlake homes were built from the 1990s through the 2010s, many as custom or semi-custom builds, and the kitchens reflect it: solid maple, cherry, and knotty alder, raised-panel doors, and stained or heavily glazed finishes that were the height of style when the house went up.
The cabinetry itself is usually excellent. What dates the room is the color: the warm Tuscan browns and dark glazes that now look twenty years old in an otherwise updated home.
Refinish or Kitchen Facelift?
That's the best case for refinishing. When the boxes are well built and the layout works, a new sprayed finish, such as a modern white, a warm greige, or a deep color on the island, changes the whole feel of an open floor plan without touching your counters, backsplash, or floors.
If the arched or heavily detailed doors are the problem, a Kitchen Facelift keeps your boxes and replaces the doors and drawer fronts with new ones built by our local cabinetmaker, in a clean shaker or slab style, with the boxes refinished to match.
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
Southlake homes are large, and kitchens rarely stand alone: there's often a wet bar, a butler's pantry, a mudroom, and a study with built-ins. We can bring them all into one finish, and plan the work room by room so the house stays livable. If you have a designer or builder, we're glad to work through them.

From Southlake homeowners
Our kitchen is dark and Tuscan. Can it feel light and modern?
Yes. A light, warm color on the perimeter cabinets changes the room the most, and new hardware finishes the update. If the arched doors still feel heavy once they're painted, a Kitchen Facelift with shaker or slab doors is the next step, and we'll talk through both at the consultation.
Will knotty alder look right painted?
Alder's knots can show through paint as small marks. They're sealed before priming, and you'll see a finished sample door in your color, in your own light, before work begins.
Do you refinish whole-house cabinetry, not just kitchens?
Yes: bars, pantries, vanities, laundry rooms, and built-ins, in the same finish or a coordinating one, as part of one project.
