Cabinet Repair in Macon, GA

Cabinet repair returns function to damaged cabinetry without the expense and disruption of replacement. Our cabinet repair service in Macon, GA fixes broken doors, sagging shelves, stripped hinges, non-closing drawers, and damaged box frames — restoring cabinets to full function and presentable appearance.

Drawer issues are usually slider failure or a broken corner joint in the drawer box itself. We replace sliders with soft-close units (an upgrade worth making while we have the drawer out) and re-glue or replace broken drawer box components. Cabinet door problems are usually hinge-related — worn or stripped hinges get replaced with matching European-style hardware, including soft-close upgrade when desired.

Box frame damage from water, impact, or delaminating particleboard gets repaired with appropriate materials: epoxy for rot, wood glue and clamping for delamination, replacement panels when damage is extensive.

What's Included

• Broken door repair and replacement
• Hinge replacement and adjustment
• Drawer box repair and rebuild
• Drawer slide replacement
• Sagging shelf support replacement
• Water-damaged box frame repair

Why Choose Handyman Macon GA for Cabinet Repair?

Cabinet drawer failures come in two types: the drawer box itself is broken (corner joint failure, bottom delaminating), or the slide hardware has worn out. We address both correctly. Drawer box repairs use wood glue and proper clamping — not screws through the corner, which compress the wood and loosen again. When we replace drawer slides, we upgrade to soft-close hardware of the same dimensions, because the cost difference is minor and the improvement in daily use is significant. We also advise honestly on particleboard cabinet boxes that have absorbed water: swollen particleboard that's structurally compromised is better replaced than repaired. Cabinets where the delamination is limited and the structure is sound can be glued and clamped with lasting results — we tell you which situation you're dealing with.

How Cabinet Repair Works

1. Failure identification — We identify whether the problem is the drawer box, the slide hardware, the hinge, or the cabinet box itself. These are different repairs — a diagnosis that misses the actual failure produces a repair that fails again quickly.
2. Drawer box repair — Failed corner joints are disassembled, old glue removed from mating surfaces, re-glued with wood glue, and clamped for full cure time. Screws through the corner are not used — they compress the wood and loosen again within months.
3. Slide replacement — Worn drawer slides are replaced with same-dimension soft-close hardware. We measure the existing slide length and box width precisely before sourcing — a slide that's a half inch too long or short creates binding or incomplete closure.
4. Hinge repair and door adjustment — European 35mm cup hinges are adjusted or replaced. After any hinge work, every door is checked for consistent reveal and full close with soft-close action. Visible overlay inconsistency after repair is addressed on the spot.
