Why Henderson Homeowners Choose CWS Construction
Slatestone Contractors provides CWS repair in Henderson with independent cabinet installation, refacing, and repair across the city, from Green Valley Ranch to Anthem and the Water Street corridor. We’re not an authorized CWS dealer, and we won’t pretend to be one. What we are is a Henderson general contractor with years of hands-on experience pulling CWS cabinetry apart and putting it back together right, which means we can tell you honestly when a CWS kitchen is worth refacing and when it’s time to cut losses. Call (833) 734-5541 for a straight answer and a free estimate.
Henderson’s housing stock skews heavily toward 1990s and 2000s tract builds, and a surprising number of those kitchens and baths shipped with CWS cabinetry: Canterbury raised-panel oak and maple, Lancaster and Fairhaven shaker lines, modular pantry runs. That means our service area, including Boulder City CWS service calls, is full of CWS boxes that have been living in single-digit humidity for two or three decades, and we know exactly how they fail here. This page is the resource we wish every Henderson homeowner had before they started tearing out cabinet doors or googling “cabinet repair near me” at 11 p.m.
One note up front: Slatestone Contractors is an independent contractor. We are not affiliated with, authorized by, or warranty-endorsed by CWS. We quote and service on that basis, which means we’ll never tell you a repair is covered under an OEM warranty unless you’ve confirmed it with the manufacturer yourself.
Why Trust Slatestone Contractors for Your CWS Construction?
Brent Calloway, our owner, grew up in Green Valley when the neighborhood was still finding its footing, and he learned the trade through the construction technology program at College of Southern Nevada. That training grounded him in framing and building systems before he ever touched a cabinet box, which is why our approach to CWS work starts with the structure behind the doors, not just the doors themselves. A cabinet that’s pulling away from the wall or sitting on a water-swollen box isn’t fixed by swapping hinges.
Our crews have installed and refaced CWS cabinetry across the Henderson valley for years, so we know how these particular boxes, drawer glides, and finishes behave in desert-dry indoor air and under intense west-facing sun. That experience shows up in the details: we know which CWS Canterbury door profiles are still available as OEM replacements and which have been discontinued long enough that a quality aftermarket match is the only realistic path. We know that the original hinge plates on many 1990s CWS runs wallow out their screw holes in particleboard boxes, and we know which reinforcement methods actually hold versus which ones fail again in six months.
We also carry the broader Slatestone capability behind every CWS job. Cabinet work rarely happens in isolation. A kitchen island installation means countertop templating, plumbing moves for a prep sink, and sometimes electrical for outlets. A refacing project often turns into a backsplash replacement. We handle all of that under one contract and one schedule, which means you’re not coordinating a cabinet guy, a countertop fabricator, and an electrician on your own.

Common CWS Construction Problems We Fix in Henderson
These are the specific failure patterns we see on CWS cabinetry in Henderson homes, and they’re not what the manufacturer’s generic care guide covers.
- Checked and split door faces on Canterbury oak and maple. Henderson’s interior humidity routinely drops into the single digits, especially in summer with the AC running hard. Solid wood stile-and-rail doors on older CWS Canterbury lines lose moisture over years and split at the joints where the rail meets the stile. Three or four checked doors on an otherwise solid run is a classic refacing candidate: the boxes are fine, the doors are done.
- Peeling thermofoil and laminate skins near dishwashers and sinks. The bottom rails of thermofoil doors on CWS Lancaster and Fairhaven lines take steam from dishwasher dry cycles and sink splash-back. The skin separates from the MDF core, bubbles, and eventually peels. Once the bubble forms, the door is cosmetically dead because the adhesive layer has released.
- Swollen and crumbling box sides at leak points and toe kicks. Slow supply-line drips, slab leaks, and dishwasher overflow events wick water into the particleboard and MDF box sides of CWS modular base cabinets. The material swells, crumbles, and loses structural integrity. By the time you see the toe kick distort or the door stop closing flush, the box side is usually too far gone to save.
- Worn and binding drawer glide tracks. The original side-mount glides in 1990s CWS runs were serviceable but not designed for two decades of daily use. Tracks wear, nylon rollers crack, and drawers start binding or sagging. We replace with quality aftermarket soft-close full-extension glides, which upgrade the feel of the entire kitchen without touching the cabinet face.
- Loose hinges and wallowed-out screw holes. The hinge plates on older CWS boxes screw directly into particleboard sides. After years of door cycles, the holes enlarge, the screws lose bite, and doors start to sag and drag. We drill and fill the old holes, set proper dowels or threaded inserts, and remount the hinges so the repair actually lasts.
CWS Parts & Our Repair-vs-Replace Approach
We source OEM CWS doors, drawer fronts, hinges, and glide hardware when the color and profile are still available, so adjacent cabinets match without a visible patch job. When OEM has been discontinued, we use quality aftermarket soft-close glides and hinges that outperform the original hardware. The neighborhood issue is rarely the CWS door itself; it’s the original hardware and the box material behind it.
Our repair-versus-replace rule is simple, and we apply it even when it costs us work. If the damage is confined to doors, drawer fronts, and hardware, refacing and hardware upgrades are the right call. If water damage or swelling has reached the box panels in more than a couple of cabinets, refacing won’t fix it, and we tell you that straight. Partial replacement with matched CWS boxes is the honest answer in that situation. We’d rather lose a refacing line item than install new doors on a cabinet that’s structurally dying.
Call (833) 734-5541 and we’ll walk the kitchen with you, check the boxes and the hinges, and give you a recommendation based on what’s actually there, not what’s convenient to sell.
Our CWS Service Process – Step by Step
- 1
Diagnosis and box assessment. We inspect every cabinet, open every door, pull every drawer, and check for water intrusion, box-side swelling, hinge plate integrity, and glide wear. We look specifically at the dishwasher-adjacent base cabinets and any box under a sink, because those fail first.
- 2
Repair or refacing plan with written line-item pricing. You get a written quote that separates box replacement, door and drawer front replacement, hardware upgrades, and any plumbing or electrical work. No bundled mystery number.
- 3
Installation and refacing. We pull and replace damaged boxes, mount new CWS doors and drawer fronts where OEM is available, set aftermarket soft-close hardware where it isn’t, and shim and level everything so doors close flush and drawers slide clean.
- 4
Test and verify. We cycle every door and drawer, check reveals and gaps, run the dishwasher through a dry cycle to confirm the steam path isn’t aimed at your new door faces, and walk the kitchen with you before we call the job done.
- 5
Workmanship warranty. Our installation and refacing work carries our workmanship warranty. OEM components carry their own manufacturer warranty if applicable, which we’ll help you understand before any work begins.

AfterCWS Products We Service & Install in Henderson
We service and install the CWS cabinet lines most common in Henderson’s 1990s and 2000s housing stock. Canterbury raised-panel oak and maple doors and drawer fronts are the big one in Green Valley and Anthem, and we match finishes and profiles on partial runs so the refaced section doesn’t look like a patch, a standard we also apply to CWS repair in Whitney. We work on Lancaster and Fairhaven shaker and flat-slab door lines, CWS modular pantry and base-cabinet runs with full-extension drawer glides, and CWS semi-custom bath vanity and linen cabinet units. We keep common aftermarket hardware and components in stock locally for fast turnaround, and we order OEM doors and drawer fronts as soon as we’ve confirmed color and profile availability with the supplier.
We Also Service These Brands
Cabinet work doesn’t live in a vacuum, and plenty of Henderson kitchens mix CWS boxes with countertops and fixtures from other manufacturers. Our crews also work regularly with KraftMaid cabinetry, Cambria, Silestone, and Caesarstone countertops, and Kohler plumbing fixtures. If your CWS refacing project also needs a new countertop or a sink swap, we handle it under the same contract so you’re not juggling three vendors and two different schedules.
FAQs – CWS Construction Service in Henderson
No, we are an independent contractor and are not authorized, sponsored, or warranty-endorsed by CWS. We install and service CWS cabinetry based on years of hands-on experience, but warranty claims on OEM components must be confirmed directly with the manufacturer. We’ll help you understand what’s covered before any work starts.
We source OEM CWS doors, drawer fronts, hinges, and glide hardware when the color and profile are still available, so adjacent cabinets match. When OEM has been discontinued, which is common on 1990s Canterbury runs, we use quality aftermarket soft-close glides and hinges that outperform the original hardware.
Most single-cabinet repairs or hardware upgrades in Henderson, and nearby areas like CWS in Paradise, finish in one visit. Full refacing of a 1990s CWS run typically takes two to four working days depending on cabinet count and whether any boxes need replacement. Island installations run longer because of countertop templating and plumbing or electrical work. Call (833) 734-5541 and we’ll give you a realistic timeline based on your specific kitchen.
We service Canterbury raised-panel oak and maple, Lancaster and Fairhaven shaker and flat-slab lines, modular pantry and base-cabinet runs, and semi-custom bath vanity and linen units. If you’re not sure which CWS line you have, send us a photo of the door profile and hinge, and we’ll identify it before we even schedule the walkthrough.
We can’t speak for CWS’s warranty terms, and we won’t pretend to. If your cabinets are still under warranty, we’ll help you contact CWS directly before we do any work. For out-of-warranty cabinetry, which is most of what we see in Henderson, refacing and hardware upgrades are straightforward and carry our own workmanship warranty.
Cabinet installation in Henderson typically runs $4,000 to $13,000, kitchen island installation $3,000 to $10,000, and countertop installation $2,000 to $6,500. Refacing a full CWS kitchen can land in a similar range to new cabinet installation depending on door count and whether boxes need replacement. Call (833) 734-5541 for an exact quote, our estimates are free and written line-by-line.
