Kitchen Remodeling, Cabinets
Refacing and installing new kitchen cabinets are two options. You can opt to update the look of your kitchen or use another cabinetry type with either one. Here are some points to consider for each:
Refacing Kitchen Cabinets:
1. Cost: Refacing cabinets is generally less expensive than installing new cabinets because you keep the existing cabinet boxes and replace the doors, drawer fronts, and hardware.
2. Time: Refacing cabinets is usually quicker than installing new cabinets since you are not removing the existing cabinets.
3. Less Disruption: Refacing cabinets can be less disruptive to your home since you can still use your kitchen.
4. Limited Options: Refacing cabinets may limit your design options since you are working with the existing cabinet layout and structure.
Installing New Cabinets:
1. Customization: Installing new cabinets allows for more customization in design, layout, and storage options.
2. Quality: New cabinets can improve your kitchen’s overall quality and functionality since you can choose high-quality materials and features.
3. Value: New cabinets can add more value to your home than refacing, especially if existing cabinets are outdated or in poor condition.
4. Cost and Time: Installing new cabinets can be more expensive and time-consuming than refacing them, especially if significant remodeling is needed.
New or Refaced Kitchen Cabinets:
The decision to reface your cabinets or install new ones will ultimately depend on various factors. Such as your budget, the present condition of your cabinets, your design preferences, and the amount of time you are willing to spend on the project. If your current cabinets are in good condition and you are satisfied with their layout, refacing them may be a cost-effective option. However, if you wish to have a completely new look and have the budget for it, then installing new cabinets can provide you with more flexibility and customization options.
