Before & After: Real Cabinet Makeovers by Refined Cabinetry CT
Before & After: Real Cabinet Makeovers by Refined Cabinetry CT
Sometimes the best way to understand the impact of a cabinet makeover is to see it for yourself. At Refined Cabinetry CT, we specialize in breathing new life into outdated kitchens and bathrooms — all without full-scale renovations. Below, we’re sharing a few of our favorite before-and-after cabinet transformations from real homes across Connecticut.
Project #1: From Golden Oak to Modern White
Before: This West Hartford kitchen featured dated golden oak cabinets that made the space feel dark and heavy.
After: We repainted the cabinets in a crisp satin white with matte black hardware. The result? A brighter, more open kitchen with a timeless, modern look — completed in just a few days.
Project #2: Refinished Bathroom Vanity in Simsbury
Before: The original wood vanity was scuffed, stained, and lacked personality.
After: After sanding and refinishing in a deep espresso stain, the vanity looked brand new. We added brushed nickel pulls for a high-end hotel vibe — without the luxury price tag.
Project #3: Refacing with Shaker Doors in Glastonbury
Before: Flat-panel cabinet doors in this older kitchen had chipped edges and outdated finishes.
After: We replaced the doors and drawer fronts with new Shaker-style panels, applied a soft gray finish, and installed soft-close hinges and modern bar pulls — all without removing the original cabinet boxes.
Project #4: Kitchen Refresh for a Rental in Newington
Before: Worn cabinets and yellowed paint made this rental unit feel neglected and outdated.
After: A full cabinet repaint in satin navy blue added instant value and style. The bold look made the kitchen stand out — perfect for attracting new tenants.
