If you tired of the same old kitchen and you want a new look but don’t want to spend thousands of dollars on brand new cabinets and countertops then you should consider the advantages of kitchen refacing. A cabinet refacing system completely renews and beautifies old, ugly cabinets and restores your kitchen to a stunning, brand new look. You will have a full range of products and available options to pick from for you determine what best suits your needs and desires, as well as your budget.
There are many combinations of solid woods, beautiful finishes, and attractive door styles to choose from to complement your home, lifestyle, and taste. You have the ability to reconfigure or add kitchen cabinets, as well as incorporate modern accessories and features. Your new “dream kitchen” will only take a few days, and at a fraction of the cost of a custom kitchen remodel. You will have a beautiful kitchen in less than a week.
Things you will want to do before your cabinet refacing.
1. When the much anticipated day arrives for your kitchen makeover to begin, you will want to have all old cabinet doors and drawer fronts, existing moldings, and countertops, removed. You will want to check with the company doing the work and see if they include this in their service.
2. Make sure the company you select cleans up, as things can get a little messy.
3. Make all your choices on the endless possibilities of trim moldings, valances, decorative shelves, and other visible areas of the kitchen that can be replaced with solid wood. Other upgrades available include new countertops, sinks, faucets, backsplashes, wall tile, or appliances. There are also cove or crown moldings, door or window casings, new sills, wainscoting or baseboard options as well at your choosing.
There are options for hand-selected, solid hardwood doors in your choice of wood, style, and finish. These doors are usually hung with premium adjustable concealed hinges. If desired, you can select to upgrade drawers with new dovetail wood drawer boxes. New solid hardwood matching drawer fronts are installed, then doors and drawers are fitted with fashionable new knobs or pulls of your choice.
Cabinets can be altered to make them more functional, such as…
- Reconfiguring cabinets to make room for a larger refrigerator.
- Add a microwave above the range.
- Add new pantries, wall, or base cabinets.
- Install your preferred upgrades, such as roll-out trays, lazy susans, trash bins, wine racks, or many other available options.
- Adjust the countertop height, which may be needed in kitchens where new floors have been installed.
COVER ALL EXPOSED FACE FRAMES – All exposed face frames will be covered with a solid hardwood in your choice of wood and finish. The sides and bottoms are usually also covered to give you the look of high-end furniture. You will want to make sure all the wood that is used is prefinished so there is no worry of peeling of veneers or delaminating, as in other cabinet refacing systems.
