My interior designer connected me with Summit Cabinets and I could not be more pleased with the entire process. Alex did a phenomenal job with all the prep work and finished painting ahead of schedule. Max came in and made sure the finished product was exactly what we were wanting. I would hands down recommend refinishing and painting with Summit, not only is it an investment at a fraction of the cost of full remodeling but it was such a quick process and everyone was so professional and respectful!

Summit Cabinet Coatings did an amazing job resurfacing my kitchen cabinets. From the estimate through to the end of the project, the communication and attention to detail was immaculate. I knew exactly what was going to happen, when, and did not even have a chance to be confused about anything because of how proactive the team is about providing educational materials and project details and timelines. The price seems very fair to me for how thorough and high quality the process is.

I am so pleased with the two cabinets that Summit Cabinet Coatings did last week. They look brand new! Jared, Jake and Max came to my home and each one did a splendid job! I was so impressed with their expertise and they were all very professional and a delight to work with. The office staff are also so kind and helpful.

Why throw away good kitchen cabinets when Summit can give you new cabinets with their excellent people, workmanship and attention to detail? This company makes an old cabinet renewed to be better than it ever was by adding pullouts, replacing exact design doors as needed, and attending to the painting with the utmost professionalism and expertise. We are thrilled with the results!

Such a positive experience with Summit Coatings! I highly recommend working with them. They have a well organized team from sales to project completion. The quality of work is excellent and there are lots of color choices to choose from. Workmanship is warranted for 10 years, which gave me the confidence to choose them over a painting company.

We LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the work that Summit did on our cabinets! It looks like a brand new kitchen for less than half the cost of replacing our cabinets. We had such a great experience from start to finish, we highly recommend them.

Summit Cabinet Coatings took on a very hard project removing paint and a distressed look on cabinets with large hickory knots. The team did a great job on a messy project, looking out to not damage my new hardwood floor, and manage my concerns. Highly recommend.

From start to finish, this was one of the best experiences we have had with a home project. The entire team was kind, professional, and so attentive to detail. Our kitchen now looks completely brand new, we honestly cannot believe the transformation! They went above and beyond, especially with the top of the cabinets, and the final result looks like it was always part of the original build.

A job well done! The finish is beautiful. The staff prepared me well for what to expect during the week that they worked. Jim the co-owner supervised the project and handled the finishing touches. Great attention to detail. Jen, the other co-owner, comes to the house to help with colors and other decisions and gives the final price which we felt was very fair.

Summit Cabinet Coatings is excellent at what they do, and we love the end result of our refacing project. They take care in their work, and were great at communicating with us, making sure we knew all of the steps in the project, that we understood the schedule, and that we had what we needed in making any design decisions.
