Cabinet refacing & refinishing

Same kitchen. New face. A fraction of the disruption.

If your cabinet boxes are solid and the layout works, you don't need to tear the kitchen out to make it look new. Refacing swaps the doors and drawer fronts for new ones and finishes the boxes to match; refinishing gives your existing doors a smooth, sprayed, factory-style finish in a new color. Days of work instead of weeks — and your kitchen stays usable through most of it.

This is finish carpentry, not a paint crew with a roller: proper prep, cabinet-grade sprayed coatings, doors that close straight, and crown and trim tied in cleanly.

Refinishing vs. refacing vs. remodel

1 · Cabinet Refinishing

Keep your doors and boxes — we prep, repair, and spray them in a new color or stain. The most budget-friendly update. Right when the door style is fine but the finish is dated, worn, or the wrong color.

2 · Cabinet Refacing

New doors and drawer fronts in the style and color you choose, boxes finished to match, new hinges and hardware. The kitchen reads as new — the layout, countertops, and appliances stay put.

3 · Full Kitchen Remodel

New layout, new cabinets, countertops, backsplash. The right call when boxes are failing or the floor plan doesn't work. That's a different project — see Kitchen Remodeling.

Bathroom Vanities

The same refacing and refinishing logic applies to bathroom vanities — new fronts and finish at a fraction of replacement cost.

Hardware & Soft-Close Upgrade

New pulls, knobs, and soft-close hinges and slides — small job, big daily difference. Often bundled with refinishing.

Crown, Trim & Lighting

Add crown molding to the uppers, light rail, and under-cabinet LED lighting while we're at it — the details that make cabinets look custom.

What's included

What's included in a refacing project

✓ Standard scope

  • On-site assessment of cabinet boxes and layout
  • Door style, color, and hardware selection
  • New doors and drawer fronts, made to measure
  • Boxes and face frames prepped and finished to match
  • New soft-close hinges, drawer slides, and hardware
  • Crown and trim tie-in where cabinets meet the ceiling
  • Masking, dust control, and full cleanup

Materials & finishes

  • Painted doors — MDF or paint-grade maple in shaker and flat-panel styles; the most popular, resale-neutral choice
  • Stained doors — solid hardwood (oak, maple, cherry) when you want wood character
  • Sprayed cabinet-grade coatings — smooth, durable, factory-style finish; not brush-and-roller wall paint
  • Soft-close hinges & slides — standard on our refacing projects
  • Under-cabinet LED lighting — optional add-on, wired cleanly
  • Color matching — test panels before final finish, matched to your trim and countertops
Straight talk

When refacing is the right call — and when it isn't

Refacing only makes sense on cabinets worth keeping. We check this at the estimate and tell you straight — we'd rather lose a refacing job than put new doors on failing boxes.

01

Boxes must be sound

Solid plywood or well-built boxes reface beautifully. Water-swollen particleboard or failing frames don't — that's remodel territory.

02

Layout stays

Refacing keeps cabinets where they are. If you want to move the island, open a wall, or rework storage — that's a remodel conversation.

03

Counters & appliances stay

That's what keeps the cost and timeline down. Want new countertops too? We can sequence both — ask at the estimate.

04

We'll tell you straight

If refacing won't give you a result we'd put our name on, we'll say so at the free estimate and lay out what will — with numbers for each option.

Refinishing keeps your existing doors and boxes and gives them a new sprayed finish — the most budget-friendly update. Refacing replaces the doors and drawer fronts with new ones and finishes the boxes to match, so the kitchen looks new while the layout stays. Both cost a fraction of a full remodel and take days, not weeks.
Most kitchens take about 3-5 working days once doors arrive: box prep and finishing, then door and hardware installation. Refinishing alone is typically 2-4 days depending on kitchen size. Your kitchen stays usable for most of the project.
Yes — that's the point of refacing. You pick a new door style (shaker is the most popular), a new color or stain, and new hardware. The boxes are finished to match, so the whole kitchen reads as one new design.
Refacing works when the cabinet boxes are structurally sound and you're happy with the layout. If boxes are water-damaged or failing, or you want to change the layout, a remodel is the honest recommendation — we assess this at the free estimate and tell you straight which option makes sense.
Cabinet-grade finishes are sprayed. Spraying gives the smooth, factory-style surface that brushing can't match on doors and face frames. We prep, mask, and ventilate properly so overspray never touches your countertops or floors.
Cost depends on the number of doors and drawer fronts, the door style and material, and whether you add soft-close hardware, crown, or lighting. It's typically a fraction of the cost of full cabinet replacement. We provide a free written estimate within 48 hours after a quick on-site visit.
