What cabinet refacing actually is
Refacing keeps your existing cabinet boxes in place and replaces everything you see: new doors and drawer fronts, a matching veneer or laminate over the box faces and end panels, and new hinges and hardware. The result looks like new cabinetry without tearing out the layout or disturbing your countertops and plumbing.
Refacing vs. replacing: when each makes sense
Refacing is the smart spend when your boxes are solid, the layout works, and you mainly want a fresh look. Choose full replacement when you're changing the layout, your boxes are water-damaged or falling apart, or you need more or differently sized cabinets.
- Choose refacing: solid boxes, good layout, cosmetic update, faster timeline, lower cost.
- Choose replacement: layout change, damaged boxes, more storage, or full-custom look.

Cost and timeline
Refacing typically costs a fraction of new cabinetry because you're not paying for new boxes or the labor to remove and rebuild them. It's also faster. Most refacing jobs finish in about a week, and because it's finish work, it generally doesn't require a permit.
Frequently asked questions
- How much does refacing save versus new cabinets?
- It varies with the doors and veneer you choose, but refacing commonly runs a fraction of full replacement because the boxes stay put. You're paying for the visible surfaces and labor, not new casework.
- Will refaced cabinets look as good as new ones?
- From the outside, yes: you're getting brand-new doors, fronts, veneer, and hardware. The difference is the boxes are your existing ones, so refacing is about looks and cost, not changing the layout.
- Can I add new cabinets while refacing the rest?
- Yes. We can add matching units (an island or a pantry), and reface the existing runs so everything reads as one cohesive kitchen.
