If you're looking for a fast way to update the look of your kitchen, cabinet refacing is a great option. This process is a replacement of the cabinet door and drawer fronts with a stylish wood veneer. In many cases, hinges, handles, and drawer pulls are also replaced. Aside from an easy style upgrade, one of the biggest reasons for a cabinet refacing is cost-savings.

How much can you save with cabinet refacing?

Cabinet refacing costs far less than cabinet replacement. In-fact, you save anywhere from 50 percent to 80 percent depending on the materials you choose.

Laminate veneers range from $1,000 to $3,000 and real wood veneers range between $3,000 and $9,000. On the other hand, replacing your cabinets entirely can cost anywhere from $4,000 for stock cabinets to over $20,000 or custom cabinetry.

That's quite the difference!

Is cabinet refacing right for you?

Although you can save a fortune when you choose cabinet refacing over cabinet replacement, there are some downsides to keep in mind:

  • Some cabinets aren't built for refacing: You don't want to reface cabinets that are in bad condition. Veneers only adhere to smooth and solid surfaces, and you want sturdy internal hardware to ensure proper operation and longevity.
  • You cannot redo cabinet layout: Cabinet refacing gives your current cabinets a fresh look, but they do nothing for your current layout. If you're satisfied with the current positioning of your cabinets, then there's nothing to worry about.
  • This can be a difficult DIY project: Veneering is a challenging task for newcomers, while installing new cabinets and drawers is much simpler.

So, is cabinet refinishing worth the cost? That depends on what you're going for. If your cabinets are in otherwise good condition and you're happy with the layout, then cabinet refacing might be the most practical remodeling solution for you.

All that's left is to find a reliable home remodeler.
