        "text": "A refinishing estimate should identify the exact surfaces, preparation method, finish system, repairs, schedule, protection, cleanup, and exclusions. Context: Vague proposals make it difficult to compare one contractor with another because “cabinet painting” may mean anything from a quick coat on doors to a complete restoration. A written scope also helps prevent misunderstandings about interiors, hardware, and damaged materials. Key factors: - Count doors, drawer fronts, exposed ends, frames, and interiors. - Specify stain or paint, sheen, color approval, and number of coats when known. - List who handles removal, transport, masking, reinstallation, and adjustments. Practical guidance: Ask what happens if hidden damage appears and how added work is approved. Request a sample and a final walkthrough before the project begins. Elite Remodeling & Design can incorporate cabinet scope into a larger design-build proposal when other kitchen work is planned.",
