This is a hands-on, mentorship-driven program — not a course you buy and forget. Click the picture below.
WHO THIS PROGRAM IS FOR
This program is for you if:
You want to work for yourself, not chase jobs forever
You like hands-on, skilled work that pays well
You want a real business, not a side hustle
You’re willing to learn a system that works
This program is NOT for you if:
You’re looking for a get-rich-quick scheme
You don’t want to work with clients
You’re unwilling to follow proven processes
This program is intentionally small so I can stay involved.
WHY CABINET REFACING
Cabinet refacing is one of the most overlooked opportunities in the remodeling world.
High demand
Short project timelines
Lower overhead than full remodels
Premium results for homeowners
Most people fail not because the work is hard — but because they never learn the business side correctly.
That’s what this academy fixes.
WHAT YOU’LL LEARN
YOUR BUSINESS TOOLKIT
You won’t be starting with a blank sheet of paper.
As part of Steen’s Kitchen Academy, you’ll receive the forms, checklists, measurement sheets, estimating tools, and reference materials designed to help you follow the system and stay organized as you build your business.
You don’t have to build the process from scratch. You’ll have a framework to follow from the beginning.
Inside Steen’s Kitchen Academy, you’ll learn:
How to measure and plan a cabinet refacing job
Tools and materials you actually need (and what you don’t)
Pricing your jobs for profit, not survival
Working with homeowners confidently
Step-by-step training videos
Real-world job workflows
Hands-on job shadowing or mentorship options
This is not theory. This is how the work is done in the real world.
YOUR STEP-BY-STEP TRAINING ROADMAP
You won’t be left trying to figure out what to learn next.
The Academy is organized around a clear progression—from understanding the basics and measuring your first kitchen to pricing jobs, completing the work, dealing with customers, and building the business.
You’ll know what to learn, what to do, and what comes next.

THE FOUNDING FIVE
Every academy has a beginning. Steen’s Kitchen Academy will begin with five founding students.
These first five aren’t just joining the program. They’ll help shape it.
As one of the Founding Five, you’ll receive more direct access to me than I expect to offer in future classes. I’ll work closely with you as you learn the business, review jobs and estimates, answer questions, and help you work through the real-world problems that come with getting started.
You’ll also have the opportunity to work alongside me on real kitchen projects in Florida during our available September–November training window, giving you the chance to see the process firsthand.
I can’t guarantee what you’ll earn or whether your business will succeed. Nobody honestly can.
But I can promise this: I’ll be fully invested in helping you succeed.
Your feedback and experience will also help me make Steen’s Kitchen Academy better for every student who follows.
And years from now, no matter how large the Academy becomes, you’ll always be one of the original Founding Five.
Founding Five Investment: $15,000 Future program investment: $30,000
Only five Founding Five positions will ever be available.
As a Founding Five student, you’ll have the opportunity to come to Florida, at your expense, and work alongside me on a real cabinet refacing project.
You’ll see the process firsthand—from preparation through completion—and have the opportunity for additional hands-on training if needed and scheduling allows.
This isn’t practice. It’s real-world training on real kitchens
ABOUT MIKE STEEN
I’ve spent over 25 years in the cabinet and remodeling industry helping homeowners transform kitchens into functional, beautiful spaces — without breaking the bank.
Before that, I spent 23 years as a firefighter, where discipline, systems, and doing things the right way mattered every day.
That same mindset is how I built this business — and how I teach it.
No fluff. No shortcuts. Just proven results.
