Here’s Everything You Need to Know About Cabinet Refacing
A kitchen upgrade is one of the easiest ways to improve the value of your home. There are so many things you can do, from buying newer appliances to having a complete kitchen makeover. Cabinet refacing is one popular option, and for good reason. Your cabinets end up looking brand new, but the project won’t cost as much.
Here are some facts about cabinet refacing to help you decide:
It Costs Almost Half as Much as a Cabinet Replacement
Cabinet refacing installation is a cost-effective way to upgrade the kitchen because it costs less than tearing up the cabinets and replacing them with new ones. However, this is an upgrade that will only work for cabinets in good condition. Installers do not recommend refacing to fix a bad kitchen design or to hide damages in old and structurally compromised cabinets.
It Takes Less Time to Complete
Because the kitchen improvement merely involves covering the frames with a thin layer of plastic laminate or veneer, there’s no need to remove the entire cabinet and install new ones. Finishing the refacing, complete with replacing the doors and handles to match the new look, will not take long. You can have the project completed in two weeks.
The On-going Project Will Not Affect Your Kitchen’s Functionality
Again, because there’s no tearing out of cabinets to worry about, you can still use the kitchen as you normally would. Just organize the contents of the cabinets to get them out of the way while contractors are working on them.
It’s a Green Kitchen Remodeling Option
You’re not throwing away any cabinets. You’re merely upgrading their look. This means nothing is thrown into landfills. You’re remodeling the kitchen without generating a lot of waste. It’s certainly a recommended kitchen remodeling upgrade if you’re conscious of your carbon footprint.
