Our shop is at 1570 Edgewood Lane in Milford, about 10.2 miles from Wixom. Head down Wixom Road and we’re at your door in roughly 20 minutes, which keeps Wixom well inside the area we work every week.
For a kitchen project, that closeness matters more than it might seem. We can come measure and quote quickly, the crew shows up when we said it would, and getting back out to adjust a door or add a touch-up later is easy. A refinishing job is something you live with every day, so having the people who did it close by is worth a lot. There’s no out-of-area trip fee baked into your quote either, and no waiting days for a crew to make the drive.
Wixom started in 1831 as a farming settlement called Sibley’s Corners, but its modern shape came from one thing: Ford. In 1957 the Ford Wixom Assembly Plant started up, and over the next fifty years it built around 6.6 million vehicles, including the Lincoln Town Car and the Ford GT, before closing in 2007 and coming down in 2012.
That plant pulled in workers and the housing to hold them. Today Wixom is home to about 17,000 people across roughly nine square miles of Oakland County, with an unusually broad mix of housing, from plant-era homes and a large share of apartments and condos to the subdivisions that filled in later. Gilbert Willis Park and the Wixom Habitat nature preserve give the town real green space, and local kids attend Walled Lake schools.
Wixom’s housing timeline is the key to its kitchens. A lot of the single-family homes went up from the late 1950s through the 1970s as the plant grew, and again in a wave of subdivision building through the 1990s and 2000s. Both eras left behind kitchens that are sound but dated.
The subdivision kitchens in particular are full of honey-oak and golden-maple cabinets that were standard for the era and now make a whole kitchen feel older than it is. Those boxes are usually solid and worth keeping. Painting the doors, drawer fronts, and boxes in a current color is the fastest, least disruptive way to bring one of those kitchens forward, at a fraction of what new cabinetry would run.
For the older plant-era homes, the value is similar but the reason is different. The original cabinetry is often better built than a budget replacement would be, so refinishing keeps the quality and just changes the look. Sprayed and cured properly, the new finish goes on smooth and stands up to years of daily kitchen use. It’s also a far cleaner project than a remodel: no demolition, no weeks without a kitchen, and no hauling solid cabinets to the curb just to swap in something thinner.
We’re in Wixom constantly, not parachuting in from across the metro. We run into customers around town, so the quality of a kitchen we refinished follows us. When your neighbors can walk into your kitchen and see the work, getting it right the first time is simply how we operate.
Updating your cabinets should be exciting — not something you dread. But we know that’s not always how it plays out.
We’ve worked with hundreds of Southeast Michigan homeowners dealing with peeling finishes, uneven coats, and cabinet paint that gave out way too soon. We’ve seen firsthand what happens when prep work gets rushed or cut short, so we built our process specifically to stop those problems before they start.
You shouldn’t have to cross your fingers hoping it holds up — or foot the bill when it doesn’t.
Picking the wrong refinisher isn’t just a cosmetic risk. It can seriously disrupt your home and lead to costs you never saw coming.
When you hire the right refinishing company, you get more than better-looking cabinets. You get a kitchen that’s properly prepped, beautifully finished, and built to hold up for years.

Testing dozens of tiny paint swatches is overwhelming. Unsure about colors? RDP Pro Paint is here to eliminate the guesswork, take that weight off your shoulders, and remove the uncertainty before the first drop of paint hits your home.
To ensure a straightforward experience, our Premium Color Consultations are treated as an optional add-on, completely separate from our standard consultation process.
You shouldn’t have to wonder whether the crew will show up, whether the price will change, or whether the work will actually hold up. Here’s what working with RDP Pro Paint looks like:

It’s not always easy to tell when your cabinets are due for a refresh. Here are some of the most common signs it might be time to refinish.
Cabinet refinishing in Wixom typically runs between $1,200 and $3,500 for most kitchens. Smaller jobs — like a bathroom vanity or laundry room cabinets — can come in well under that, while larger kitchens with more involved prep work or repairs may push past it. Here’s what tends to drive the final cost:

Hiring a cabinet refinisher is a significant investment in your home’s appearance and value. Here are the questions we hear most often from local homeowners.
It's one of the best investments Wixom homeowners can make when they want to refresh their kitchen or bathroom without committing to a full renovation. Wixom has seen a lot of residential growth over the years, and with that comes a range of home ages and cabinet conditions — some showing their age, others just needing a style update. In either situation, our refinishing process delivers a durable, factory-quality finish that transforms the look of your space at a fraction of the cost and disruption of replacement.
It's something we factor into every job we do in this region. The freeze-thaw cycles, humid summers, and dry winter air that come with living in Southeastern Michigan can cause standard paints to expand, contract, crack, and peel over time. Our industrial-grade finishes are specifically engineered to hold up under those conditions. They resist moisture, temperature changes, and daily wear in a way that typical house paint simply can't, which means your cabinets stay looking sharp season after season.
We custom quote every project based on the size and scope of the work, so we'd encourage you to reach out for numbers specific to your home. What we can tell you is that refinishing regularly comes in at a significant fraction of what replacement costs once you account for everything involved — new cabinet units, demolition, disposal, installation labor, hardware, and any countertop or backsplash work that gets caught up in the process. For most Wixom homeowners, the savings are substantial enough to make refinishing the clear choice.
Far less than you'd expect. We handle the painting of your cabinet doors and drawer fronts off-site, which keeps your kitchen functional and your household running normally throughout most of the process. There's no gutting the room, no waiting on cabinet orders to ship, and no drawn-out installation timeline. Wixom homeowners are typically back to full use of their kitchen much sooner than they would be with any kind of replacement project, which makes refinishing a much easier lift for busy families.
Completely. We don't work from a limited catalog — we offer full custom color matching, so whatever shade you have in mind, we can achieve it. From there, the finish is your call: matte gives you a clean, modern elegance, satin sits comfortably in the middle, and glossy delivers a high-impact, reflective look. If you're after something with more personality, our distressed finish adds a rustic or vintage character that works beautifully in the right home. Whatever direction you want to go, we'll make sure the result feels like a natural fit for your Wixom home.
You’ve done the research, and you know your cabinets deserve more than a rushed refinishing job. Now it’s time to work with a team that gets it right the first time. Request your free estimate today and take the first step toward a kitchen you’re proud of.
