The Wood Doctor is the leader in wood restoration, refinishing and refacing in the Portland area. Many homes have beautiful 'bones', that is, cabinets and woodwork which is fundamentally sound but which has taken a beating through years of hard use. Our goal is to turn these old wood features back into the showpieces as they were initially intended, or update them with a fresh new style which surpasses new construction in beauty and value.
Cabinet refinishing makes old wood cabinets come alive again. Initially intended to recycle fundamentally sound cabinetry, refinishing has now been joined by technology, which offers extraordinary results.

Cabinet restoration is the most economical, structurally significant and eco-friendly option when it comes to breathing new life into your cabinetry. Refinishing involves the use of a stripping agent to completely remove the old finish right down to bare wood. This allows new stains to be applied and is the process one would choose to change the color of the wood.
Cabinet refacing is an option when refinishing isn't possible. For example, when there is damage caused by old hardware. Some cabinets are made of certain types of wood which do not lend themselves to refinishing, which makes refacing a better option than total replacement. When cabinet boxes are sound, refacing them is a cheaper option than tearing them out and replacing them.
First, we mask off the entire work area. We use a water-based cleanser and degreaser to thoroughly remove all layers of dirt and grime that have accumulated over the years. We then abrade the cabinet surfaces (this includes both the fronts and backs of cabinet doors, the drawers, and the 'styles' or 'boxes' to which the doors attach) with 400-grit sandpaper, smoothing down worn, rough areas to allow for optimum adhesion of the new finish.
Your kitchen cabinets, countertops, and appliances is one of the most visited areas in your house and represents your style in many ways. Let The Wood Doctor bring your kitchen into the 21st century with our Kitchen Cabinet Painting services. Our 25+ years of experience guarantees quick and efficient turnaround on any restoration or refinishing project.
The features in a home which are comprised of wood bring nature into the home. Since home restoration is a process, not a project, many people choose to make changes room by room or step-by-step rather than all at once. There is a reason that banisters are often the focus of theatrical productions: nothing is so prominent in the home as a majestic staircase, particularly one which has been lovingly crafted or re-crafted.
