KraftMaid Construction in Cabazon, CA | Square One Builders
We provide independent KraftMaid cabinet installation, refacing, and full kitchen remodeling across Cabazon, CA. Our crews have worked on KraftMaid cabinetry in the San Gorgonio Pass for years — including KraftMaid repair in Garnet — and we’ve learned exactly how the wind corridor and desert UV punish door fronts, hinges, and box joints here. If you need KraftMaid service in Cabazon, call (877) 688-9930 for a free estimate.
Why Cabazon Residents Choose Us for KraftMaid Service
We’re not a big-box installer passing through on the Interstate 10 corridor. Square One Builders is a general contractor that has installed and refaced KraftMaid cabinetry in Cabazon long enough to know which series holds up on a west-facing wall and which one will delaminate by the second summer. Brent Calloway, our owner, grew up in Midway City and has spent nearly three decades on residential projects throughout Southern California. He learned framing and finish work through the Construction Technology program at Golden West College, then spent years doing the ground-level work that teaches you what actually fails in the field. That’s the lens we bring to every KraftMaid job in Cabazon: we know the product, and we know what this specific desert corridor does to it. We’re an independent builder, not a KraftMaid dealer or authorized agent, which means our recommendations come from what we’ve seen on jobs, not from a sales quota. For the full scope of our KraftMaid sales & service work, we coordinate everything under one contract.

Common KraftMaid Construction Problems We Solve in Cabazon
- Thermofoil delamination on west walls. KraftMaid Vantage and Scottsdale thermofoil doors peel at the edges and bottom rails after repeated summer heat cycles. In Cabazon, the west-facing kitchen wall gets direct afternoon sun plus wind-driven grit, and we’ve seen doors start to separate within a few seasons.
- Painted door checking on Portrait and Chatham lines. Low winter humidity followed by 100-plus degree summer days cycles the wood in painted and stained maple doors. The stiles and rails develop hairline cracks that let moisture in. Cabazon’s temperature swing makes this worse here than in most of the Inland Empire.
- Swollen box bottoms and toe kicks. Wind-driven rain pushes through roof edges and failed window seals, then finds the particleboard and MDF components in older KraftMaid boxes. In lightly built Cabazon homes, this pattern shows up as crumbling toe kicks and sagging cabinet floors.
- Seized hinges and grit-clogged drawer glides. Fine desert sand carried by the San Gorgonio Pass wind infiltrates hardware on cabinets near sliding doors and pass-through windows. Hinges corrode, glides stick, and drawers stop closing square.
- Face frame racking from unstable cabinet runs. Foundation movement and temperature swings shift cabinet lines out of square over time. KraftMaid face frames begin to gap, doors hang uneven, and the whole run needs to be reset and re-shimmed.
KraftMaid Service in Cabazon: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Cabazon’s Cal Fire very-high fire-hazard designation changes what materials can legally and practically be used in additions, garage conversions, and exterior-adjacent cabinet runs. The surrounding brush and the wind corridor put this part of the Pass under ignition-resistant standards that Banning and Palm Springs don’t face with the same force. When we install KraftMaid cabinetry in a converted garage or a kitchen that opens to a covered patio, we often have to specify ignition-resistant backing, non-combustible substrates, or alternative finish layers that aren’t required for the same KraftMaid install ten miles west. That single regulatory fact means our Home Remodeling in Cabazon is not the same job as one in Banning. We’ve handled enough of these to know which materials clear inspection and which ones get flagged. It’s a local detail you won’t hear from a crew that doesn’t work the Pass regularly.
KraftMaid Models & Products We Service in Cabazon
We install, reface, and repair the full KraftMaid lineup: Vantage (the raised-panel oak and maple doors common in older Cabazon homes), Portrait (full-overlay painted or stained doors found in mid-century remodels), Chatham (inset and full-overlay shaker-style), and Scottsdale (thermofoil and laminate fronts). For parts, we source OEM KraftMaid hinges, drawer glides, and replacement doors whenever lead times allow. When OEM is discontinued or would leave a Cabazon kitchen down for weeks, we specify quality aftermarket hardware that fits the original bore spacing and weight rating. We don’t hide the distinction: we tell you which parts are OEM and which are not, and we let you decide.

AfterKraftMaid Service Pricing in Cabazon
Here’s what KraftMaid-related work typically costs in the Cabazon market. These ranges reflect the cabinet-specific scope, not the full kitchen remodel where plumbing, electrical, and flooring add to the total — contact our General Contractor in Cabazon for whole-project pricing.
| Service | Price Range |
|---|---|
| Cabinet Installation | $4,000 – $13,000 |
| Countertop Installation | $2,000 – $6,500 |
| Backsplash Installation | $800 – $2,500 |
| Small Kitchen Remodel | $9,000 – $20,000 |
What moves the number? Box damage is the big one. If swelling or delamination spans multiple runs, replacing the affected boxes is the honest call. If it’s a single cabinet or face frame, we repair and reface. Countertop material, door style, and whether we’re pulling permits all shift the final figure. Call (877) 688-9930 and we’ll walk through your kitchen line by line. Estimates are free.

FAQs – KraftMaid Construction in Cabazon
Yes, and it’s not the wind alone. The wind carries fine sand that infiltrates hinges and glides, while wind-driven rain pushes moisture into boxes through aging window seals and roof edges. Cabinets near west-facing walls and sliding doors take the worst of it.
Usually, yes. We source OEM KraftMaid doors when the style is still available, and when a Vantage or early Scottsdale profile is discontinued, we work with local finishing shops to match the door profile, finish, and sheen. A reface often costs less than full replacement. Call (877) 688-9930 for a door-by-door estimate.
If your project involves an addition, garage conversion, or any exterior-adjacent cabinet run, yes. Cal Fire’s very-high fire-hazard designation over the surrounding brush means we often have to specify ignition-resistant backing or non-combustible substrates that wouldn’t be required in KraftMaid repair in Banning or Palm Springs.
If the thermofoil is peeling on more than a door or two, replacement is usually the honest call. Thermofoil doesn’t re-adhere. For smaller runs, we can reface the doors and drawers. We’ll tear down the existing hardware, inspect the boxes, and tell you what’s salvageable. Call (877) 688-9930 for a straight answer.
We set cabinet lines with expansion allowances matching Cabazon’s seasonal movement, shim at the studs, and specify hardware rated for fine-sand exposure. We also reset cabinet lines off exterior walls where wind-driven moisture has been a problem. Start from square one, build it right.
