Q & A

Questions and Answers

Q: Do you do newer cabinets?

A: Yes we do, we can either reface your cabinets or just change the doors.

Q: Why refacing?

A: Cost is the most attractive reason to reface. You can save 30–70% by refacing instead of replacing your cabinets, depending on your plans.

Q: What about quality?

A: Chances are that your existing cabinets are of better quality construction than the cabinets you can buy to replace them. Unless you spend big bucks for a quality cabinet, most of the lower- to mid-range cabinets are basic pressed wood covered in a fancy contact paper, and may be hardwood frames to make them look good.

Q: What about durability?

A: After your cabinets are covered in plastic laminate (the same material your countertops are made of), they are easy to clean, waterproof, require no upkeep, and best of all, can be repaired if any damage should occur.

Q: Do refaced cabinets look good?

A: Yes! In most cases, it’s hard to tell a refaced kitchen from a new one. Also, when using solid colors, full sheet lamination can be used to have very few or no visible seams between cabinets.

Q: What about choices?

A: Refacing offers a nearly unlimited selection of styles and colors from which to choose. We can cater to even those people who have something special or different in mind.

Q: What do I receive when my kitchen is refaced?

A: All new drawer fronts and cabinet doors, custom fitted with self-closing hinges and your choice of hardware. All other exposed surfaces are entirely covered with matching, quality plastic laminate. There’s no need to remove your cabinets from the walls.

Q: Can a dishwasher be installed into my existing cabinets, or can additional cabinets be added?

A: Yes, all of the above and more is possible!

Q: Can you install only a countertop in my kitchen?

A: Yes! You may choose only a new countertop for a quick, inexpensive change.

Q: Are the doors and drawer fronts durable and easy to clean?

A: Indeed they are. All surfaces wipe clean with a damp cloth, offering years of carefree beauty.

Q: Is refacing a good, sound investment?

A: You bet! Over the years, updated kitchens have always rated high in adding value to a home. A recent survey of real estate professionals by Remodeling Magazine shows that a minor kitchen remodeling project may return 120% of its cost when the home is sold. And in the meantime, you’ll be enjoying the new warmth and beauty of your kitchen.

Q: Is there much mess and inconvenience with refacing?

A: Very little, because the average refacing installation is usually completed in 3 or 4 days by expert installers! You will need to empty the contents of your cabinets.
