KraftMaid Construction in Bloomington, CA | Gold Star Contractors
We provide independent KraftMaid cabinet service across Bloomington: installation, refacing, repair, and full kitchen remodeling. What makes our KraftMaid work different here is simple – we’ve spent years learning how San Bernardino County’s unincorporated permitting process shapes every kitchen job, so your remodel doesn’t stall at inspection. Call (833) 382-8544 for a free estimate.
We work on KraftMaid Vantage, Reflections, and older legacy lines. We’re not manufacturer-authorized, and we’re straightforward about that. We source OEM hinges, glides, and touch-up paint when available, and we carry the aftermarket soft-close hardware that makes sense for a cost-effective upgrade. For Bloomington homeowners planning anything from a cabinet reface to a full kitchen tear-out, we handle the build and the County paperwork.
Why Bloomington Residents Choose Us for KraftMaid Service
Most cabinet companies install boxes and leave. We look at the whole room first. Noel Carranza, our owner and general contractor, grew up watching tract homes get rebuilt block by block in Anaheim’s Platinum Triangle, and he studied construction technology at Fullerton College before spending years on concrete and finish carpentry crews. That background means when a KraftMaid cabinet fails in a our General Contractor in Bloomington kitchen, we find the cause – not just the symptom.
We’ve installed and refaced KraftMaid cabinetry across the Inland Empire long enough to know their door styles, box construction, and the specific finishes that fail under Bloomington’s heat. We stock touch-up kits and replacement hardware for faster turnaround. And because we’re a full-scope general contractor, the same crew that refaces your cabinets can also handle the countertops, backsplash, and plumbing rough-in. KraftMaid sales & service means more when one team manages the whole job.

Common KraftMaid Construction Problems We Solve in Bloomington
- Thermofoil delamination on Vantage doors. KraftMaid’s thermofoil wraps peel at the edges after enough summers of 100°F-plus heat and dry Santa Ana winds. We see it constantly on Bloomington’s mid-century and 1970s-80s homes, especially where kitchen windows face unshaded west walls. Repair is a wrap replacement; replacement is a door swap. We’ll tell you which makes sense.
- Swollen particleboard and MDF box bottoms. Bloomington homes with swamp coolers or aging roofs put moisture into kitchens. KraftMaid’s older particleboard boxes soak it up, and the bottoms crumble. We inspect the box before recommending repair – if the cabinet was mounted over a moisture source, new boxes beat patching.
- Worn drawer glides and hinges on legacy lines. Older KraftMaid hardware corrodes and loosens, especially in unpermitted additions where humidity swings are uncontrolled. We source OEM KraftMaid glides when they’re still available, and we install quality aftermarket soft-close hardware when they aren’t.
- Faded, cracked paint and stain on maple and oak doors. Bloomington’s UV exposure is brutal on south-facing kitchens. KraftMaid’s maple and oak finishes fade unevenly and crack at the joints. We match existing finishes and refinish doors, or we reface the full run if the damage is widespread.
- Unpermitted kitchen additions falling apart. Bloomington has plenty of room additions and garage conversions done without permits. When the cabinets in those spaces fail – and they do, because the framing and moisture control were never inspected – we fix the cabinets and help you bring the space into County compliance.
KraftMaid Service in Bloomington: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Bloomington is unincorporated San Bernardino County. There’s no city building department here, which means any kitchen remodel that touches walls, plumbing, or electrical goes through San Bernardino County Land Use Services for permits and inspections. That process often requires a site plan showing setbacks and septic or well clearances – paperwork contractors working in Fontana or KraftMaid service in Rialto never submit. For a KraftMaid kitchen job, that means two things. First, the timeline includes County plan review, so we sequence cabinet demo and install around inspection dates. Second, retroactive permits for previously unpermitted work are a regular part of our Bloomington projects. We recently refaced a set of KraftMaid Vantage cabinets in a 1970s ranch house off Cedar Avenue near Bloomington High School. The thermofoil had peeled along the bottom rails from years of heat, and two drawer boxes had swollen from a slow sink leak. We replaced the damaged boxes, installed new OEM glides, and wrapped the frames in fresh thermofoil. The homeowner got a like-new kitchen without a full tear-out – and we pulled the County permits to make the work legal.
On unincorporated Bloomington’s larger lots, we also see a lot of permitted and unpermitted second kitchens, converted garages, and detached ADU-style spaces with cabinetry. KraftMaid holds up fine in those spaces when the structure is sound. When it isn’t, the cabinets fail first. We check the space before we quote the cabinets.
KraftMaid Models & Products We Service in Bloomington
We service the full KraftMaid lineup you’re likely to find in KraftMaid service in Pedley and Bloomington homes. That includes the Vantage series – the thermofoil doors we see peeling most often – plus the Reflections series with its framed construction, and legacy door styles like Chardon and Lyndale in maple, oak, and painted finishes. We don’t carry every door style in stock; we order OEM replacement doors and fronts as needed. But we do keep common KraftMaid hinges, drawer glides, and touch-up paint on hand for faster Bloomington turnaround. For hardware that’s been discontinued, we match aftermarket soft-close components that fit the existing bore holes. The honest call is always whether to repair or replace – in this climate, swollen MDF and delaminated thermofoil usually mean replacement is smarter than patch work.

| Service | Typical Bloomington Range |
|---|---|
| Cabinet Installation | $4,000 – $13,000 |
| Countertop Installation | $2,000 – $6,500 |
| Full Kitchen Remodeling | $14,000 – $45,000 |

FAQs – KraftMaid Construction in Bloomington
Refacing cabinets – new doors, drawer fronts, and veneer on existing boxes – typically does not require a permit because you’re not altering walls, electrical, or plumbing. If the reface includes new cabinet boxes, a sink relocation, or any wiring changes, San Bernardino County Land Use Services will require permits and inspections. Call (833) 382-8544 and we’ll tell you exactly what your scope triggers before work starts.
If the door frames are sound, we can strip and re-wrap the thermofoil or replace just the doors and drawer fronts. If the boxes are also swollen or crumbling – which we see in Bloomington homes with swamp coolers or leak history – replacement is usually the smarter move. We’ll assess the boxes and give you both repair and replacement numbers.
Every remodel that touches structure, electrical, or plumbing goes through San Bernardino County Land Use Services, not a local city hall. County plan review and inspection scheduling can add days or weeks to the job depending on their workload and your property’s septic, well, or setback situation. We build that into the schedule up front. Call (833) 382-8544 for a realistic timeline on your project.
Usually, yes. KraftMaid maple and oak door styles like Chardon and Lyndale are still orderable in many finishes, and we carry touch-up paint and stain-match systems for close blending. Lighting and sun exposure can shift an older finish, so we’ll sample-match on site. We’ve done this many times on Bloomington additions where the original kitchen runs into a new island or pantry wall.
Cabinet installation in Bloomington typically runs $4,000 to $13,000 depending on kitchen size, door style, and whether the job includes island work or modified boxes. A full kitchen remodel with KraftMaid cabinets, countertops, and backsplash lands between $14,000 and $45,000. Call (833) 382-8544 for an exact quote – estimates are free.
