KraftMaid Construction in Boynton Beach, FL | Elmstead Remodeling West Palm Beach
We provide independent KraftMaid sales & service across Boynton Beach, and the one thing that makes our work here different is simple: we know exactly what salt air and humidity do to 1980s KraftMaid cabinet boxes in concrete block homes. Graham Stein and our crew have rebuilt, refaced, and rehung more KraftMaid kitchens in Leisureville and Golfview Harbour than we can count. If your cabinet doors are pulling loose or your drawer slides are corroding, call (728) 203-3270 and we’ll put the fix in writing before we start.
Why Boynton Beach Residents Choose Us for KraftMaid Service
We work on KraftMaid cabinetry every week in Boynton Beach’s concrete block homes, troubleshooting hinge failures, swollen doors, and misaligned drawer slides that come from decades of humidity and salt air. Our crews can match older KraftMaid door styles with modern replacement fronts and reconfigure existing boxes to avoid full tear-outs. Graham grew up in Los Angeles and learned the trade at Los Angeles Trade-Technical College before spending decades working construction up and down the West Coast and eventually settling his crew into the Boynton Beach, FL area. He still walks every Boynton Beach job site himself before a single drop cloth goes down.
We are an independent KraftMaid service provider, not manufacturer-affiliated or authorized. That independence means we recommend the repair that actually makes sense for your kitchen, not the one that moves inventory. Our people are background-checked and uniformed, shoe covers go on at the door, and every Boynton Beach homeowner gets a written price before any work begins.

Common KraftMaid Construction Problems We Solve in Boynton Beach
- Hinges pulling out of particleboard end panels on KraftMaid Vantage cabinets. This is the number one call we get from Boynton Beach kitchens, especially in homes where years of humidity cycling has softened the board behind the hinge plate. In non-air-conditioned coastal rooms, the particleboard loses its grip and the door starts to sag. We rebuild the end panel with plywood and reinstall with fresh OEM hinges.
- Thermofoil door fronts peeling at the bottom edge on KraftMaid Venicia lines. Standing moisture from summer afternoon thunderstorms wicks upward into the door edge, and the thermofoil starts to lift. Once it peels, it will not glue back down cleanly. We either source aftermarket doors matched to the existing profile, or reface the entire run if more than a few doors are failing.
- Drawer slides binding from corroded adjustment screws. Salt-laden air near the Intracoastal attacks the adjustment screws on KraftMaid slides, especially in ground-floor kitchens. The drawer still opens, but it grinds and sticks. We replace the slides with new OEM hardware and set the adjustment so the drawer tracks cleanly.
- Sink base corner joints swelling and cracking. Slow plumbing drips in concrete slab foundations go unnoticed because the water has nowhere visible to pool. By the time you see the crack behind the sink base, the corner joint has already been soaking for months. We repair the joint, fix the leak, and reinforce the cabinet so it holds.
- Doors swollen shut or misaligned from west-facing afternoon sun. Boynton Beach kitchens that face west get intense heat on the upper cabinets, which dries one face of the door while the interior face holds humidity. The result is a door that will not close square. We re-hang, adjust, and where needed, replace with a door style that holds up better to thermal cycling.
KraftMaid Service in Boynton Beach: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Here is something that shapes KraftMaid work in Boynton Beach more than almost anywhere else in Palm Beach County: the city’s 1970s and 1980s concrete block homes in Leisureville and Golfview Harbour were routinely built with flush-set metal kitchen cabinets before KraftMaid ever entered the market. The metal cabinets sat tighter to the wall and shorter in height than modern KraftMaid boxes, so when homeowners make the switch to KraftMaid’s taller doors and deeper cabinets, the openings do not line up. We often frame out and modify cabinet openings to accept KraftMaid’s taller doors and deeper boxes without moving plumbing or electric. That is not true in every neighboring city. It is a Boynton Beach renovation pattern that changes how the whole kitchen design comes together, and it is why a KraftMaid installation here needs a crew that has done it enough times to know where the old metal boxes leave studs, where the original wiring runs, and how far the concrete slab allows a sink base to move. If you are replacing metal cabinets in one of these homes, plan for opening modifications. If you call us, we will show you exactly what that means on paper before we touch anything.
KraftMaid Models & Products We Service in Boynton Beach
We service the KraftMaid lines most common in Boynton Beach kitchens: Vantage, Venicia, Durham, and Benton. For current finishes, we use KraftMaid OEM hinges, slides, and touch-up kits so the replacement hardware matches what the factory put in. For discontinued Thermofoil fronts, we source high-quality aftermarket doors and reface the boxes instead of tearing out structurally sound cabinets. Repair beats replacement for structural cabinet bodies, but if the end panels are blown out or the finish is delaminating more than 30%, we tell you a full reface or replacement is cheaper than chasing each door. We keep common KraftMaid hardware on our local trucks so most Boynton Beach repair visits do not wait on a parts order.

FAQs – KraftMaid Construction in Boynton Beach
Can KraftMaid Vantage cabinets be refaced in a Boynton Beach condo where the HOA requires matching original door styles?
Yes. We match the existing door profile and finish as closely as the current KraftMaid catalog allows, and we document the match in writing for your HOA application. In many Boynton Beach condo buildings, the original Vantage shaker profile is still in production, which makes refacing straightforward. Call (728) 203-3270 and we will help you put together the paperwork.
How do you prevent KraftMaid cabinet hinges from corroding again after replacement in a home near the Intracoastal?
We use OEM hinges with a corrosion-resistant coating and set them in fresh pilot holes with the right fastener for the substrate. For ground-floor kitchens near the Intracoastal, we also recommend keeping the cabinet interiors dry and addressing any standing moisture from plumbing or AC condensation. The hinge replacement itself is the easy part; the long-term fix is keeping salt air from settling into the hardware.
Can you fix swollen KraftMaid doors on a Leisureville kitchen that faces west and gets heavy afternoon sun?
Yes. Swollen doors from afternoon heat often just need the hinges re-adjusted and the door re-hung square. If the door itself has warped beyond adjustment, we replace it with a matching KraftMaid style. Call (728) 203-3270 for an exact assessment; we will tell you which doors can be saved and which need replacement.
We own a Golfview Harbour home with original 1980s KraftMaid Durham cabinets. Can you add a pull-out trash bin without replacing the whole cabinet?
Yes. The Durham line’s base cabinets are deep enough in most cases to accept a pull-out trash bin, and we can build out the slide hardware without tearing out the cabinet box. This is a straightforward Boynton Beach Bathroom Remodeling and kitchen retrofit that most local kitchens can handle in a single visit. Call (728) 203-3270 and we will measure and quote it.
Our Boynton Beach kitchen has KraftMaid Venicia cabinets with peeling Thermofoil doors. Is it cheaper to replace all the doors or repaint them?
Replacing the doors is almost always cheaper than repainting peeling Thermofoil, because the repaint will not bond to the failing surface and you will be back in the same spot within a year. For a full run of peeling Venicia doors, we source aftermarket doors matched to the existing profile and reface the boxes. Call (728) 203-3270 and we will give you the number for your kitchen.

In a Leisureville home off Old Boynton Road, our crew pulled out a 1980s KraftMaid Vantage kitchen where every lower door had pulled its hinge screws from the saturated particleboard. We rebuilt the end panels with plywood, replaced the hinges with new OEM versions, and refaced the entire run with matching KraftMaid shaker doors, and the client kept every original cabinet box, cutting their cost by two-thirds compared to a full tear-out. Put it in writing, then do exactly that. That is the whole job.
