We Look Inside the Cabinets Before We Talk About Tearing Them Out

Nationalvideogamearchive does kitchen remodeling in Scottsdale, Arizona, with most of our work centered on cabinets. Some of it is refacing, where the existing boxes stay on the wall and get new doors, drawer fronts, veneer and hardware. Some of it is full replacement with new framed or frameless cabinets. The job we care about most happens before either one, which is working out which of the two a particular kitchen actually needs.

That question gets skipped more often than it should. A homeowner decides the kitchen looks tired, a showroom quotes new cabinets, and a set of perfectly serviceable plywood boxes goes into a dumpster along with a stone countertop that had years of life left. Other times the opposite happens, and a kitchen with a rotted sink base gets a coat of new doors that hides a problem for a year or two.

How We Work

We start every project by opening the cabinets. We empty the sink base, pull a few drawers, check the joints and the shelves, and put a level on the counters. If the boxes are sound and the layout works, we recommend refacing and explain what it will and will not change. If the boxes are failing, or you want to move walls, appliances or plumbing, we recommend new cabinets and walk you through the permit and inspection steps with the City of Scottsdale.

We work in homes of every age here, from 1960s ranch houses in south Scottsdale to planned community homes in McCormick Ranch and Scottsdale Ranch and larger custom kitchens up toward Pinnacle Peak and Desert Mountain. Each one brings its own mix of original cabinet construction, previous remodels and, almost always, hard water history under the sink.

What You Can Expect

• A plain explanation of the condition of your cabinets before any quote.
• Refacing and replacement priced side by side when both are reasonable options.
• Material advice that accounts for desert heat and dry air.
• Written terms for the work and the manufacturer’s finish warranty paperwork.
