QUESTIONS TO ASK
Questions to ask: cabinet spray finishing
Good contractor questions for cabinet spray finishing test how the work will actually be delivered. Start by asking who will inspect existing coating, grease contamination, door construction, and substrate condition, how findings will be documented, and what happens if the existing conditions differ from assumptions.
Questions about existing conditions
“Will you inspect existing coating, grease contamination, door construction, and substrate condition before finalizing the scope?” Ask what will be measured, photographed, or opened for verification and which assumptions remain provisional.
Questions about the proposed method
“How will you decide whether doors and drawer fronts should be removed for controlled spraying?” Request an explanation of the assembly, trade responsibilities, material choices, and what will be inspected before work is covered.
Questions about disruption and inspection
“What is the sequence for plan labeling, masking, ventilation, cure time, and hardware reinstallation?” Ask about access, temporary shutdowns, material delivery, protection, inspection scheduling, and cleanup.
Questions to ask before signing
“What happens if hidden conditions change the scope?” Poor cleaning or insufficient cure can cause early adhesion and handling problems. Confirm who approves changes, how pricing is documented, and what workmanship warranty and exclusions apply.
