Cabinet Refacing — An Affordable Upgrade That Doesn’t Compromise Quality
No other component of your kitchen or bath has a bigger impact on style and functionality than the cabinetry. Indeed, if your cabinets are worn, damaged, or simply outdated, you may find it impossible to create the look that you want for your space. But can you really justify the cost and hassle of a full custom cabinets replacement project? When you turn to Reborn Cabinets, you won’t have to. Our Signature® Cabinet Refacing is a budget-friendly service designed to provide homeowners like you with beautiful, updated cabinetry or vanities in much less time and at a fraction of the cost of a full-scale cabinet remodel.
How Does Cabinet Refacing Work?
Reborn Cabinets is a pioneer in high-quality cabinet refacing, and after more than 35 years we continue to hone our rigorous kitchen remodeling process. Each project is 100% custom. But the process is fairly simple. Rather than completely removing the old cabinets and installing new ones, our installers focus on refinishing them with new cabinet doors and wood veneers. Think of it as a cabinet renovation. Refacing involves the following steps:
Choose a Style
First, you have to decide what kind of cabinet hardware and doors you want. Although kitchen cabinet refacing isn’t the same as a replacement, your kitchen still gets a cabinet makeover. There are countless cabinet door styles, colors, and hardware types to choose from. Think about what best suits your kitchen style and personal tastes.
Cabinet Refacing Explained
Once you know what kind of cabinet doors you want, our team of installers will do the rest. Refacing involves:
- Leaving your existing cabinet boxes in place and removing the doors and drawer fronts
- Installing a ¼-inch-thick veneer made from premium solid wood over your cabinet boxes
- Installing brand-new, custom manufactured doors, drawer fronts, and hardware
The end result of this process is cabinets that look and function like new. In fact, you’ll feel like you’re in a new kitchen altogether. But thanks to the reduced material and labor requirements, the project is surprisingly affordable and can be completed in as little as three days.
Reface or Replace: How to Decide if Refacing Is Right for You
Although cabinet refacing is a good home improvement option for many homeowners, there are some situations where replacement is the better option. Here are some considerations to keep in mind if you aren’t sure whether to reface or replace your cabinets:
Budget
While replacing your cabinets entirely gives you more options, it’s almost always more expensive. Cabinet refinishing allows you to update the look of your cabinets without spending as much money. Get a quote for replacement and refacing and see what best suits your budget.
Cabinet Condition
In refacing, your cabinets will get entirely new doors. However, the existing cabinet boxes don’t get replaced. As such, you should do a thorough DIY inspection on the interior of your cabinets before committing to refacing. If you notice signs of damage or deterioration, completely replacing your cabinets may be best. If you aren’t sure if your cabinets need replacing, ask for a consultation with our experts.
Design and Layout Preferences
Add: In addition to aesthetics, you may want to update the layout of your cabinets. With refacing, the layout of your cabinets will remain the same. If you want to change how many cabinets you have or their size, you may prefer a replacement. If you’re happy with the layout of your cabinets and just want a new look, refacing is the less expensive option.
Time
Add: Refacing is less expensive in part because it doesn’t require as many materials. However, it’s also less labor intensive than replacement. For that reason, refacing often takes much less time than replacement. Consider how long you’re willing to have installers working on your cabinets.
Material Waste
Because refacing uses the old cabinet boxes, it wastes less material than complete replacement. For the environmentally conscious, refacing is a good way to reduce waste if your cabinets are still in good working condition.
