KraftMaid Bathroom Remodeling: The Dallas Owner’s Guide
KraftMaid bathroom remodeling in Dallas typically runs $9,000 – $28,000 installed, depending on whether you’re replacing a single vanity or gutting the full room, and most full remodels take 3 – 6 weeks from demo to final walkthrough. We install and service KraftMaid cabinetry as part of complete bathroom remodels, and we stock common replacement hinges, drawer slides, and door bumpers on the truck. The typical call we get starts the same way: a drawer that won’t close flush, a door that’s sagging by a quarter inch, or a vanity that’s swollen at the base from years of Dallas humidity and splash exposure.
Which KraftMaid Models This Applies To
KraftMaid builds bathroom cabinetry across several lines, and the compatibility question matters more than most people expect. We work with the full run: the entry-level Venicia line, the mid-range standard KraftMaid series, and the custom-order KraftMaid Plus configurations. The right part match usually comes down to three things: the door profile stamped on the inside of the cabinet frame, the hinge cup measurement, and whether the finish is a wrapped thermofoil or stained hardwood. One gotcha we see regularly in Dallas homes: KraftMaid changed hinge cup spacing on some vanity lines around 2016, so a hinge from one era won’t sit flush on a door from the other. We measure the cup and the bore before ordering anything.
For OEM parts, KraftMaid’s direct replacement program keeps doors, drawer fronts, and hardware available for most lines built in the last 15 years. That’s the safest route when you want an exact finish match. Quality aftermarket equivalents from brands like Blum and Salice work fine for hinges and slides, and they often outlast the originals. Penhallow Remodeling Dallas is an independent remodeling company, not a KraftMaid dealer or affiliate. That means we install and service the product honestly, and we’ll tell you when an aftermarket part is the better call.

Signs Your KraftMaid Bathroom Remodeling Is Failing
- Drawer binds or rides rough. The undermount slide has lost its ball-bearing tension, usually from years of steam exposure in a Dallas bathroom without a proper exhaust fan. You’ll feel it catch halfway, then slam.
- Door sags or won’t stay closed. The hinge knuckle has worn, or the mounting screws have stripped out of the particleboard frame. A quick tighten works for a month, then it sags again.
- Base of the vanity is swollen or darkened. Water has wicking up through the toe kick or behind the front rail. Once the particleboard swells, the cabinet box is compromised and surface repairs won’t hold.
- Finish is peeling at the door edges. Thermofoil delamination starts at the edges where steam collects. It can’t be reglued cleanly; the door or drawer front needs replacement.
- Soft-close no longer soft-closes. The damper inside the hinge cup has blown its internal seal. The door still works, but it shuts like an old screen door.

AfterReplacement Cost & What’s Included
In Dallas, a partial bathroom refresh with a new KraftMaid vanity, top, faucet, and mirror runs $9,000 – $15,000. A full bathroom remodel with a new KraftMaid double vanity, shower or tub replacement, tile, lighting, and fixtures lands between $15,000 and $28,000. What drives the range: cabinet line (Venicia is less than KraftMaid Plus), countertop material (cultured marble is half the cost of Cambria quartz), whether you’re moving plumbing, and whether the subfloor under the old vanity needs repair. Every Penhallow job gets a written price before any work starts, and that price covers the parts, the labor, the haul-off, and the 365-Day Done Right Promise. If something fails inside the guarantee, we come back and fix it at no charge.
We also carry Cambria and Silestone countertop lines and install Kohler and Moen fixtures, so the pieces around your KraftMaid cabinetry are backed by manufacturers that stand behind their product just like we stand behind ours.
DIY or Call Us?
Bathroom cabinetry has no high-tension springs or electrical hazards, so basic checks are fair game for a careful homeowner. You can tighten hinge screws, adjust a misaligned drawer slide, and inspect the cabinet base for swelling. Where DIY goes wrong is the part swap itself: drilling new hinge cups without a template, ordering the wrong spacing, or forcing a door into submission until the particleboard gives. We’ve fixed enough of those to say plainly: if the part is visibly worn, call (940) 204-5368 and let us match it. The match is where the mistakes happen, and the match is the part of the job we do every week.
FAQs
KraftMaid bathroom cabinetry typically lasts 15 – 25 years in Dallas, but the finish and hinges often show wear by year 10, especially in bathrooms with poor ventilation. The Dallas humidity cycle, hot summers followed by cooler winters, is hard on thermofoil edges and particleboard bases. Call (940) 204-5368 and we’ll give you an honest read on whether your cabinets are worth saving.
A worn hinge or slide is replaced, not repaired; the internal bearings and dampers aren’t serviceable. But a stripped screw hole can be repaired with a threaded insert, which often saves a door. We’ll tell you which route makes sense before any work starts.
A single vanity replacement in Dallas takes one day if the plumbing and wall dimensions line up. A full bathroom remodel with KraftMaid cabinetry runs 3 – 6 weeks depending on tile, shower glass, and drywall repair. We quote the schedule in writing so you know what the driveway looks like for the next month.
Our Dallas trucks carry common replacement hinges, slides, bumpers, and touch-up kits for standard KraftMaid lines. For custom door frames or discontinued finishes, we order OEM through KraftMaid’s replacement program, which usually delivers in 1 – 3 weeks. Call (940) 204-5368 and we’ll check the truck before we schedule anything else.
If you’ve got a KraftMaid bathroom that’s starting to show its age, or a drawer that’s been fighting you for six months, call (940) 204-5368 for a free estimate. We’ll give you a number before we pick up a tool. That’s the only way Trevor Nash knows how to start.
