Cabinet refacing
Change the door style without rebuilding a kitchen that still works.
Refacing keeps usable cabinet boxes and replaces the doors and drawer fronts. The exposed cabinet surfaces are updated so the old boxes and new pieces read as one finished project.
When refacing makes sense
The layout works, but the doors or style do not.
Refacing is worth considering when the cabinet boxes are sound and you want a different door profile, finish, or hardware without changing the whole footprint.
Your cabinet boxes are usable
The boxes need to be stable enough to support new doors, hinges, drawer fronts, and surface work.
You like the current layout
Keeping the existing footprint avoids rebuilding sections that already fit the room and your daily routine.
You want a different door style
New doors and drawer fronts can change the profile more completely than paint alone.
Before I quote the work
I need to see how the current cabinets are built.
Photos help me start the review. Measurements and an on-site look may be needed before the scope is final.
- Condition of the cabinet boxes, face frames, and exposed ends
- Door and drawer-front count, sizes, and overlay
- Hinge type and whether soft-close hardware will work
- Areas that need repair before new pieces are installed
- Door profile, color, sheen, and hardware placement
What the scope can include
The visible pieces are considered together.
Doors and drawer fronts
New pieces are sized for the existing cabinetry and selected in the agreed door style.
Exposed cabinet surfaces
Face frames, end panels, trim, and other visible areas are reviewed so the finishes work together.
Hinges and adjustments
Compatible hinges can be installed and adjusted so door gaps and movement are consistent.
Knobs and pulls
New hardware placement can be included when the selected pieces and cabinet construction allow it.
Look closely at the details
Door profile, finish, and hardware need to work as a set.
