Kitchen Cabinet Refacing

 Kitchen cabinet refacing is a cost-effective and sustainable way to give your kitchen a fresh and updated look without completely replacing your existing cabinets. Unlike cabinet replacement, which involves tearing out and replacing the entire cabinet structure, refacing focuses on updating the cabinet’s external appearance and installing brand new doors. During the refacing process, the cabinet’s existing framework remains intact. The cabinet doors & drawer fronts are removed and replaced with new ones. Additionally, the hardware, such as handles and knobs, can be updated to complement the new look.

Furthermore, cabinet refacing provides the flexibility to update the kitchen’s aesthetic with a wide range of style and color options while preserving the layout and functionality of the existing cabinets. This makes it an attractive choice for those who are satisfied with their kitchen’s current layout but wish to refresh its appearance.
