Choosing the Right Cabinet Material for Your Salt Lake Kitchen

Solid wood, thermofoil, and painted MDF each perform differently in Utah's dry climate. Solid wood offers timeless warmth and holds up well to our low humidity, while thermofoil resists the cracking that can show up in homes with big seasonal temperature swings. Painted finishes give you the widest color range but need a quality spray finish to stay durable under daily use.

A Real Transformation: The Gattis' Kitchen Refresh

The Gattis, homeowners in Holladay, brought us in to refresh cabinetry across their kitchen, loft, and living room — plus matching stair rail covers to tie the whole space together. We refaced their existing cabinets in a warm, wood-grain finish with sleek brushed-nickel bar pulls, added a frosted-glass accent door to one upper cabinet, and built in open corner shelving for display. The result: a cohesive, updated look throughout the home without a single cabinet box replaced.

“The craftsmanship was beyond professional and perfection,” one local reviewer wrote of the finished project. “We are so thrilled with our new cabinets, panels, stair covers. Most appreciated!” Kudos on this one go to our own Jason and Eric, whose work made it happen.
