Instead of removing the existing cabinets, we simply removed the old drawer fronts. We then cover/surface your existing cabinet boxes with 1/4 solid wood, veneer, or thermofoil. Next, we installed the new doors and drawer fronts that match the newly refinished cabinet boxes. We can also install other options, such as new pull-out drawers and shelves.
Some of the main benefits of refacing are:
You will save 50 – 60% of the cost of a complete disassembly of the kitchen. Superior quality of doors and drawer fronts compared to cabinet construction.
In 3-5 days your repair project will be complete. Compare that to weeks, or even months for a new kitchen remodel.
Less mess and aggravation. In most cases, you can still use your kitchen during the renovation process.
Electrical and plumbing works are minimized.
have the choice to maintain your existing countertop.
You can add some new cabinets if required.
Cabinet refinishing is considered an eco-friendly option to complete your kitchen remodel. It is estimated that 90% of homeowners maintain the same basic layout of their kitchens. Less waste is sent to landfills when you choose capping. If you have some changes, like new appliances, that require modifications to your current cabinets, we can usually accommodate them.
The options for refacing are very similar to those for new cabinets. The selection of door styles, wood species, stain colors, glazing, crown molding, and hardware is nearly endless. You can have the kitchen of your dreams.
If you’re in a hurry and want to get your cabinets done even faster, you can opt for “facing.” This means that only the doors and drawer fronts are replaced and the existing cabinet box will be left as is. If your cabinets are white, almond, or antique white, this is a great alternative. Also, if you have stained wood cabinets and don’t need an absolutely perfect match, this option works well. Usually the difference is barely noticeable.
Another term you may hear is “cabinet lining.” It basically refers to giving your cabinets a new look and includes painting, staining, or refacing. Although painting is cheaper and easier than facing, the results are often disappointing. If your cabinets are in excellent condition, painting may be a viable alternative, but if they’re old and worn and in need of a good facelift, the only way to go is to restore them.
