​Faux Cabinets in Broomfield

Sometimes the uniqueness of our techniques takes us away from our home in the sunshine state. This week it was into the snowy mountains of Colorado. After boarding our flight in Jacksonville, Florida our 1,481 Miles adventure of remodel had begun. With knowledge we were flying across the country to transform laminate cabinets into a stunning wooden finish, we accepted the challenge. Our personalized designed cabinets is not something that is found in every city and we were on board to bring our work to Broomfield. The air felt different, the time change was different, but home depot was right down the street so it felt like home.

Why fly all the way to Colorado? Faux wooden cabinets are a growing demand that our company goes above and beyond to provide. Certain Builders do not always provide you with enough information on what you are choosing with your home, the outcome is not always pretty and this where we come in. Laminate cabinets however, are not the worst choice. They are a lot easier to clean than real wood and are often more durable than solid wood.  One may ask why not just put in new cabinets?  Time and money are obvious answers, but most importantly is the outcome. We provide one of a kind custom cabinets you cannot get anywhere else. Everything about our Faux cabinets is custom and one of a kind. From the base color to the color of the grain, every vision is hand mixed to tie in all the colors of the rest of the house to the owners vision. The Broomfield home was no different.    ​

We knew right away, when entering the Broomfield home, the original dark cabinets pulled from the whole room. We thought a more subtle color that blended with the house would do. “It’s Colorado! I picture blues/greens, snow covered mountain.” After creating a vision to our client’s liking we began mixing. Mixing up the colors with our clients is always half the fun! We love experimenting over and over until we get the color that makes them smile. ​

Details are definitely everything to us! The placement of the grain where the light hits is always important. The multiple shades of colors reflecting off the artificial and natural lighting makes them just glisten. There is nothing like seeing our art work at different angles. We make sure we get every angle just right!  ​

After very many steps with a lot of sanding in between we finished. With a very happy client who couldn't stop raving about her new cabinets.  We would say it was a success and had a blast along the way. The sight-seeing was mind blowing and the food was on another level.  Chris is still talking about his breakfast burrito from Loco Hermanos (We all know how much he loves burritos).  We just adored Colorado and are looking forward to the other jobs we have coming up around the country.
