Choosing a Local Cabinet Refacing Contractor vs. a High-Pressure National “Gimmick” Company
When it comes time to update your kitchen or bathroom with cabinet refacing, homeowners are often faced with a familiar choice: a trusted local contractor or a national company with flashy ads, “today-only” discounts, and a sales pitch that feels more like a game show.
We all know that kind of high-pressure company, the one that promises a “free upgrade” if you sign right now, won’t leave your kitchen table for three hours, and somehow turns a simple cabinet refacing quote into a dramatic countdown clock.
While those companies may be loud, local expertise often speaks much more clearly.
The High-Pressure Sales Pitch: Flashy, Fast… and Forgettable
National cabinet refacing companies often rely on:
- Aggressive sales tactics
- “One-day only” pricing
- Inflated starting quotes followed by “discounts”
- Subcontracted installers you’ll never meet until installation day
These companies invest heavily in advertising and scripted presentations. The focus is often on closing the deal, not building a long-term relationship.
And once the contract is signed? The friendly salesperson disappears, replaced by call centers, rotating installers, and a lot of “we’ll get back to you.”
The Local Contractor Difference: Real People, Real Accountability
Now let’s talk about the other option, the one more SE Wisconsin homeowners are choosing.
Savers Kitchen & Bath has been family owned and operated for over 39 years, serving homeowners throughout southeastern Wisconsin from their showroom at:
6531 W North Ave, Wauwatosa, WI 53213

When you choose a local cabinet refacing contractor, you’re not dealing with a script, you’re working with people who live and work in your community and plan to be here long after your project is complete.
No Subcontractors, No Surprises
One major difference between local contractors and national companies is who actually installs your cabinets.
Many national refacing companies outsource work to subcontractors. That can lead to:
- Inconsistent craftsmanship
- Scheduling issues
- Communication breakdowns
- Limited accountability if problems arise
Savers Kitchen & Bath uses experienced in-house installers. The same team that represents the company also completes the work, ensuring consistent quality, professionalism, and pride in every project.
A Showroom That Speaks for Itself (No Sales Gimmicks Required)
High-pressure companies often rely on brochures and sample boards. Savers Kitchen & Bath invites homeowners to visit the largest cabinet refacing showroom in the area, featuring:
- Hundreds of cabinet door styles
- Wood, laminate, and painted finishes
- Quartz, granite, Corian, laminate countertops and tile backsplash ideas
- Hardware and accessories you can actually see and touch
- Flooring Options
No countdown clocks. No “sign today” pressure. Just real options, real comparisons, and informed decisions.
Local Experience Matters—Especially in Wisconsin Homes
Wisconsin homes vary widely in age and construction style. Cabinet refacing requires experience and precision, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
With nearly four decades of local experience, Savers Kitchen & Bath understands:
- Cabinet construction in older homes
- Structural considerations that impact refacing
- Local design preferences
- Seasonal installation challenges
That kind of knowledge doesn’t come from a national playbook, it comes from years of hands-on work in Wisconsin homes.
Trust Earned Over Time, Not Through Gimmicks
National companies often build trust through marketing. Savers Kitchen & Bath built trust the old-fashioned way—by doing the work right.
Their credentials include:
- 39+ years in business
- A+ Better Business Bureau rating
- Thousands of satisfied homeowners
- A reputation for honesty, craftsmanship, and service
And yes, financing options are available, without high-pressure tactics or confusing offers.
So, Who Should You Choose?
If you enjoy long sales pitches, artificial deadlines, and wondering who’s actually showing up to your house, national gimmick companies might be for you.
But if you prefer:
- Honest pricing
- In-house professionals
- A showroom you can visit
- A company that answers the phone years later
Then choosing a local contractor like Savers Kitchen & Bath just makes sense.
Cabinet Refacing Without the Pressure
Skip the gimmicks. Skip the countdown clocks. Choose experience, accountability, and craftsmanship.
