If it’s time for your kitchen to get a little facelift, you may be in for some sticker shock when you get an estimate for new cabinets. Not only that, but the time you may have to wait to get on the contractor’s schedule might be months, and the time it will take from start to finish may also be a disappointing reality.

What if you could breathe new life into your kitchen without breaking the bank? What if you could have the project finished in one week? With N-Hance, you can!

N-Hance of the Lowcountry, locally owned by Andrew Ambler since 2011, wins over customers with Ambler’s rule of 5-5-5. He arrives five minutes early, finishes in five days or sooner, and each job comes with a five-year warranty. When you call on N-Hance for your kitchen and bath refinishes, refaces, or re-doors, you get all three promises fulfilled and more.

“We offer people a way to lighten and brighten their kitchen and bathroom cabinets with our painted refinishes,” Ambler said. “With custom cabinet painting from N-Hance, you can get a dramatic transformation in approximately five days. Not only is our process a quick and quality solution, but it’s also budget friendly.”

A full demolition and remodel of your existing cabinetry can seem to take forever, and when it’s done, you’re left with an enormous bill. The N-Hance approach to cabinet painting costs less than a complete remodel, so you’ll have more room left over in your budget to spend in other areas, whether it’s adding a backsplash, refinishing your wood floors, or painting your walls a new color.

The stunning finishes are superior to a typical painting process, leaving no drips, no brush strokes, and a rock-hard finish that won’t peel or chip like regular paint. Ambler’s team uses proprietary products and processes to ensure the best finish for their customers. Because they can complete the job in a matter of days, there’s not a lot of downtime to deal with or disruption to your busy life. N-Hance offers a color palette with the most popular, on-trend colors from which to choose; or, if you have a specific color in mind, they can bring your vision to life no matter what color you desire.

Some of the advantages of choosing N-Hance include the following distinctions:

  • Before painting, the N-Hance professional carefully cleans your cabinets with a special proprietary solution that thoroughly eliminates any dirt, oil, grime, and build-up that has accumulated on your cabinets. This often-overlooked step is essential for quality. Contaminants create peeling and flaws in the final product. N-Hance ensures the best base for your color change through exceptional preparation.
  • N-Hance primer is specifically manufactured for cabinets and designed to block bleed-through from the old color and other possible imperfections. The primer helps your new color better adhere to the surface of your cabinets for a more durable, longer-lasting solution.
  • N-Hance products are made exclusively from water-based acrylic, polyurethane blends designed for cabinets. Most painters use latex paint designed for walls. N-Hance’s product results in stronger adhesion that resists chips or peeling with a smoother finish.

“We also do cabinet refacing,” Ambler said. “Because a lot of homes in the area are getting older, the cabinets may need more than just paint. With a reface, we can completely change the color and give you all new doors and drawer faces. While your cabinet boxes remain in place, we replace the doors and drawer fronts to a new style, so your kitchen looks and feels like new at just a fraction of the cost of a remodel. We have about 15 different styles to choose from. Each comes in a painted finish, and this process only takes three days.”

In new kitchen cabinets, the doors cover up most of the cabinet framework (full overlay), while in older cabinets, there are gaps between every door (partial overlay). One big advantage to refacing is that the new doors will go to a full overlay rather than a partial overlay, which updates the look of your kitchen with fresh color, updated door style and covers the gaps in cabinetry. N-Hance can also add new cabinets onto existing cabinets if you want to expand, and they can modify your space when you get a bigger refrigerator or add a pantry cabinet.

The third service N-Hance offers is a cabinet re-door. This is a simple, convenient one day job.

“If you have white cabinets and want you want to keep them white but just change the door style, we will come in, take off the old doors, and put on new doors and drawer faces,” Ambler said. “These are also full overlays, so you get that updated door style in a one-day job at an affordable cost.” 

N-Hance is a specialized company that only does cabinets. Since Ambler opened the Lowcountry franchise, they have completed more than 2,000 kitchens in the area. They know the ins and outs of the business, and each job is backed by a five-year warranty.

“Unlike many painters, we are able to offer our customers a warranty because all our products are specific paint and clear coat kitchen and bath products,” Ambler said. “Our products will hold up under the daily uses of the kitchen and bathroom.”

With N-Hance, you get reliable, on-time service. They do exactly what they say they will do at the designated time. Unlike other contractors who may be juggling and managing multiple jobs and only committing to your project for a few hours a day, N-Hance is steadfast to their schedule and respectful of yours.

“We hold to starting and finishing on time,” Ambler said. “If we say we will be there May 10 and finish May 14, you can count on that, and we’ll even get there five minutes early. We will put in extra hours in the shop at night to get our work done, so we aren’t inconveniencing customers. We start the job and stay on the job until it is finished, and when it is all complete, the end goal of a restoration is to give the cabinets the look of a factory finish, as if you’d bought them that way.”
