3 Crucial Facts to know BEFORE you get your Cabinets Refaced!

Jul 9, 2019

What is Cabinet Refacing?

It is a simple way to transform your kitchen or bath into the room of your dreams. If you’re looking to remodel, have a budget, and already love your existing kitchen or bathroom layout, cabinet refacing is probably for you.

When cabinets are refaced, the existing doors, drawers, and cabinet faces are removed. We face them with a new surface of your choice and replace. Your cabinets are precisely measured to ensure a high-quality end result. This is one of the hottest trends in the home remodeling industry for many reasons.

If you looking to do a kitchen renovation, replace your kitchen or bathroom cabinets, refacing may be right for you.

The Facts:

#1 Cabinet refacing takes much less time than traditional kitchen remodels.

You have been meaning to renovate that kitchen or bathroom for years. Then a natural deadline comes up like a graduation party or friends and family visiting.

How can you do a kitchen remodel on a time crunch? The answer is cabinet refacing!

A typical kitchen refacing project will take 1 – 2 days as opposed to gutting your kitchen and installing expensive custom cabinets which can take weeks on end leaving you not only without the use of your kitchen but past your deadline for the remodel to be complete.

This is why refacing is the most time-friendly option for your kitchen remodel.

#2 Cabinet refacing can make your cabinets more durable

Your existing kitchen will not only get a fresh new look, but your doors and drawer fronts will also get reinforced with an extra layer of material.

First, we will apply a layer of plywood and then also apply a layer of laminate material onto your doors and drawer fronts with a high-pressure heat method that will provide extra support and durability to your existing cabinets. This is why refacing will make your doors and drawer fronts more durable and longer lasting.

#3 Refacing can save you money

If you’re looking to do a kitchen remodel on a budget then refacing could be for you. Having the existing structures or vanities refaced is a budget-friendly way to complete home improvement projects like bathroom remodeling or kitchen remodeling. It provides great options for those looking for a custom look with a smaller budget.

But just because you’re not spending as much does it mean you’re not getting the same look and feel of a complete kitchen remodel.

By refacing your cabinets you are allowing more room in your kitchen or bath budget for upgrades like upgraded sinks countertops drawer pulls and more.
