Member Success Story · Atlanta, GA Transforming Kitchens Through Barter: Pro Finish Craftsman Delivers a Stunning Cabinet Refacing Project in Atlanta, GA Another great success story from The Barter Company—where skilled professionals and smart businesses come together to create real value. Before & After: A Beautiful Kitchen Makeover Before: Original cabinet layout and finish. After: Fresh, modern cabinet refacing by Pro Finish Craftsman. This cabinet refacing project was completed by Jerald Evans of Pro Finish Craftsman, a longtime Barter Company member known for exceptional craftsmanship. The work was done for fellow member Todd Helton of Atlanta Internet Marketing, LLC, who was looking to transform an existing kitchen space while getting the most value for the budget. "Barter provided me the opportunity to transform our kitchen in an affordable way. This gave me the ability to undertake this project now instead of much later, by not having to outlay cash for the cabinet refinishing. Jerald and his team did a great job and I would gladly recommend him to any of my friends, family or people in my community." Modern Craftsmanship, Professional Results Pro Finish Craftsman took this dated kitchen and turned it into a bright, modern, highly functional space—without the cost of a full remodel. New Craftsman-Style Cabinet Doors Brand-new, professionally painted craftsman-style doors Durable, smooth finish Soft-close hinges Modern, trendy pulls for an instant upgrade Refinished Cabinet Boxes for a Seamless Look Jerald improved and refinished the original cabinet structures: Sanded all cabinet boxes Re-primed and repainted for a fresh, like-new look Perfectly matched finish to the new doors This method delivered a premium appearance while keeping the original footprint—ideal for cost-conscious upgrades using barter. Upgraded Functionality: Drawers & Pantry Pull-Outs Beyond aesthetics, Pro Finish Craftsman improved the kitchen's usability with strategic functional upgrades.
