KraftMaid Construction in Chino, CA | Sycamore Contractors
We provide independent KraftMaid cabinet installation, refacing, and KraftMaid repair in Los Serranos and across Chino’s 91708 and 91710 ZIP codes. What makes our KraftMaid work different here is simple: Chino is really two housing markets a few miles apart, and each one needs a different approach to KraftMaid cabinetry. We work both sides of that divide. Call (877) 265-6284 for a free estimate on any KraftMaid job in Chino.
Why Chino Residents Choose Us for KraftMaid Service
We’ve installed, refaced, and repaired KraftMaid cabinetry across both the older Chino core and the Preserve, so we know how their door styles, drawer boxes, and finishes hold up under Inland Empire heat and real household wear. We’re an independent contractor – not authorized or sponsored by KraftMaid – and we tell homeowners plainly when a KraftMaid box is worth saving and when it isn’t. Nate Calloway, our owner, has spent two decades running crews across this region, and he’d rather lose a job than sell a full tear-out when refacing does the job. That candor has kept us busy in Chino. Our broader KraftMaid sales & service work spans every model line, but the Chino calls tend to cluster around two distinct problems: aging 91710 kitchens and Preserve homes with builder-installed boxes that were never adjusted correctly. We handle both.

Common KraftMaid Construction Problems We Solve in Chino
- Peeling painted finishes on sun-facing doors. Chino’s hot, dry summers and Santa Ana wind heat spikes punish painted KraftMaid doors that catch direct afternoon sun through a kitchen window. The finish blisters, then peels in sheets. We source genuine KraftMaid replacement doors where the finish is still in production, or match the existing color with a professional refinish.
- Soft-close drawer and hinge failures in Preserve homes. KraftMaid Momentum full-access boxes in 91708 homes often left the builder with soft-close slides that were never adjusted. Drawers drift, stick, or slam. We re-square the boxes, shim as needed, and upgrade to quality aftermarket soft-close hardware when the original slides are worn past adjustment.
- Out-of-square cabinet runs in older 91710 tract homes. Postwar and 1970s-80s walls in the older Chino core are rarely square or plumb. When KraftMaid cabinets were reset or added during a prior remodel and never shimmed level, doors bind and drawer boxes rack. We fix the underlying alignment before anything cosmetic.
- Moisture swelling at the sink base and toe kick. Older downtown-edge homes in Chino with slab-on-grade floors and poor under-sink ventilation trap moisture against the cabinet carcass. The toe kick and sink base swell, and the finish delaminates. Sometimes we replace the affected panels; other times the box has wicked water into the gables and honest repair means replacement.
- Partial remodels that never matched the original finish. Homeowners add a KraftMaid island or a wall of cabinets in a 91710 kitchen and the new finish clashes with the old. We verify the exact KraftMaid door style and finish code, order matching components, and blend the old with the new so it reads as one kitchen.
KraftMaid Service in Chino: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Chino’s construction work splits into two job types a few miles apart, and that split defines how we approach KraftMaid service here. KraftMaid work in 91710 generally means removing or reworking cabinets from 1970s-80s tract kitchens – homes along Central Avenue and the older neighborhoods near the historic downtown. Those kitchens have out-of-square walls, settled slabs, and cabinets that may have been retrofitted during a prior remodel by someone who did not shim or level. The work is correction first, finish second. In the 91708 Preserve corridor, it is the opposite: KraftMaid cabinets in homes only a few years old, still inside or just past builder warranty. The boxes are square, but the installation was rushed – soft-close slides never adjusted, doors hung slightly off, and sun-facing MDF fronts already peeling. Two completely different job types within one city. We quote them differently, schedule them differently, and fix them differently. That is the Chino reality a generic KraftMaid page will not tell you.
KraftMaid Models & Products We Service in Chino
We work on the full KraftMaid line: Vantage, the all-plywood semi-custom box you see in higher-end 91710 remodels; Momentum, the full-access ready-to-assemble style common in Preserve builds; and Choice, the framed budget-tier line still found in plenty of Chino condos and starter homes. Standard door styles in maple, alder, and red oak, painted or stained, all fall within our scope. For parts, we source genuine KraftMaid replacement doors, drawer fronts, and hardware where the existing finish is still available. When OEM parts are discontinued or overpriced, we use quality aftermarket soft-close slides and hinges that outlast the originals. For KraftMaid in Montclair and Chino turnaround, we keep the common repair stock on hand so a stuck drawer or a peeling door front does not linger for weeks.

FAQs – KraftMaid Construction in Chino
Is KraftMaid cabinetry worth refacing instead of replacing in a 1970s-80s Chino home? It usually is, assuming the boxes are still square and dry. KraftMaid carcasses from that era were typically built stout, and refacing with new doors, drawer fronts, and hardware costs meaningfully less than a full tear-out and reinstall. If water damage or sagging has compromised the box, we will say so outright. Call (877) 265-6284 for an honest assessment.
Can you fix peeling painted KraftMaid doors in the Preserve without replacing the whole kitchen? Yes. In the Preserve at Chino and for KraftMaid in Eastvale, we have pulled sun-faded painted MDF fronts, re-squared and shimmed the island box, upgraded the soft-close slides, and replaced only the affected doors to match. No full tear-out needed. If your painted finish is peeling, call (877) 265-6284 – the repair may be smaller than you think.
Do you work on KraftMaid cabinets in brand-new Preserve homes that are still under builder warranty? We do. Most of that work is adjusting what the builder installed: soft-close slides never set, doors hung off-square, and sun-facing finishes already failing. It is worth checking your warranty coverage first, but if you want it fixed correctly and quickly, we are happy to handle it. Call (877) 265-6284.
What’s involved in adding a KraftMaid island to an older Chino kitchen? We match the existing KraftMaid door style and finish code, verify the subfloor is flat enough for the island footprint, and install the new box so it sits level even if the slab is not. Electrical for outlets and proper overhang for seating are part of the scope. For an exact quote on an island addition in Chino, call (877) 265-6284.
Do you match new KraftMaid cabinets to my existing finish for a partial Chino remodel? Yes. KraftMaid finishes are documented, and we order doors and drawer fronts to the same style code when the finish is still in production. When it is not, we work with a local finisher to blend the new pieces. Either way, the goal is one kitchen that reads as a single install. Call (877) 265-6284 to talk through your partial remodel.
