West Hartford Finishing Co is a West Hartford cabinet company whose website says it specializes in cabinet refacing, giving a kitchen a new look without a full remodel. It claims 33 years in business. Its Connecticut home improvement contractor registration, number HIC.0569174, held by WEST HARTFORD FINISHING LLC, is active on the state registry. A recent customer with a dark mahogany kitchen said the cabinets came out with a uniform factory finish across nearly 60 doors and drawers, with no mess. A recent customer with 1980s cabinets said George's crew repainted the old cabinet boxes or covered them with wood panels, and the kitchen got new doors and new drawers. A recent customer said George's team repainted their kitchen cabinets and started work on schedule. A 2026 customer said George's team painted their apartment's kitchen cabinets white and added cabinet doors at the bottom of five built-in bookcases, and the entire job only took a week. A 2024 customer said owner George Peluso advised keeping their nearly 40-year-old cabinetry and replacing the doors, drawers and hardware, and that the work took one week as advertised. A 2025 customer said George provided touch-up paint after another contractor scratched a cabinet, even though the warranty was up. A 2024 customer called their job a "NIGHTMARE" and said it took weeks longer. A 2023 customer said paint got inside 2 cabinets and the shelves of a custom-built pantry were not level, and that the company never would fix it. A 2022 customer said several emails went unanswered and the crew never dropped off the promised touch-up paint. In a 2021 Houzz review, a customer said the job took far too many visits to complete, in large part because the owner was not organized.
Very happy with our cabinets! Have gotten so many comments on the high quality of the paint. George and his crew were very helpful throughout the whole process!
George and his team did a fabulous job repainting our kitchen cabinets. Great communication, transparency, fair pricing, started work on scheudule and produced. quality workmanship. You won't be disappointed.
Our kitchen was a really dark mahogany that swallowed all of the light in the room. We desperately needed a refresh. The team at WH Finishing did an exemplary job at refreshing our kitchen cabinets! I want to make a strong point about the quality on the finish - unbelievable. It is a high-quality factory finish and completely uniform throughout our large kitchen - with nearly 60 doors and drawers. The job was done to perfection - no mess, no flaws in the work. Very well done and we couldn't be happier with the results. George and the team were helpful throughout the process: readily available, and quick with guidance and answers whenever we had questions. It feels like we have a new house - and it's great to see our vision brought to life. The pictures speak for themselves.
We have circa 1980s wood cabinets. They'd been "restored" and painted. The latter job was awful; streaky, chipped easily, doors didn't close so we had to install latches that didn't work well. After 4 years we said "enough". We kept the "boxes" which George's crew repainted and/or covered the "boxes" with wood panels. We got new doors and new drawers. Along with our previous updates -- some new appliances and new countertops -- the kitchen now looks new. We should have used West Hartford Finishing in the first place. Professional, highly competent, efficient/expeditious, and the customer-comes-first. Personal service from a local company. Thanks to George, Tom, and his assistant for making the process easy.
George did an excellent job and guiding us toward our cabinet facing. Tommy and Alex were thoughtful, Considerate, helpful, and knowledgeable. The end result exceeds our expectations.. Just beautiful ! Thank you!
