Is GDB Express Right for Your Project?
GDB Express is built for fast, focused updates that make your home feel new without turning life upside down. If you’re nodding “yes” to most of these, you’re in the right place.
- Your project stays within existing walls (no major layout or structural changes).
- Your cabinets/fixtures are functional, but the look is dated.
- You’d love soft-close hardware, better storage, and a fresh finish.
