Kitchen cabinet lining: the best solution

In any kitchen renovation, replacing cabinets can be an expensive undertaking, consuming an average of 50 percent of your total renovation budget. Relining kitchen cabinets may be the most affordable and stylish solution you’re looking for to give your kitchen a fresh new look, without the expense and demand of a complete kitchen overhaul. If your current kitchen design is functional and efficient, and your built-in cabinets are in reasonable condition, why not consider remodeling, rather than replacing, your kitchen cabinets?

In traditional kitchen renovations, cabinets are completely removed, leaving you with a kitchen build zone for weeks, disrupting your everyday life and work space. The magnitude of a renovation like this might even require you to set up a temporary kitchen area elsewhere in your home, further adding to the cost and time commitment of your kitchen renovation. In addition to being costly and disruptive, installing completely new cabinets doesn’t always guarantee the best product quality. Many homes have built solid wood cabinets that are higher quality and more durable than many of the cabinet options available in Big Box stores today. Unless you hire the work of a custom cabinet designer, which will blow up your renovation budget, it’s often a better option to refinish these older cabinets by reattaching them, rather than tearing them out and replacing them with standard cabinets. Refacing kitchen cabinets is also more environmentally responsible than replacing entire cabinet units, especially when the condition of your current built-in cabinet is of the highest quality. Why replace something that isn’t broken, when you can just fix it?

Refacing kitchen cabinets is an easy process that takes two to four days to install and can be completed professionally for a fraction of the cost of a full replacement. After the style and condition of your current cabinets are evaluated and an estimate has been established by a qualified installation expert during a free in-home consultation, you can decide on the style of door, trim, finishes and accessories to be tailored to your wishes and specifications. Existing doors and drawer fronts are removed and replaced with the new designs of your choice. Exterior cabinets are completely refinished and look like new! Not only are you saving the cost, time commitment and mess of a complete cabinet replacement, you also receive a guaranteed warranty on the work completed.

When considering your options during a kitchen renovation, it’s important to be aware of the possibilities available to you when choosing cabinets. In most cases, it’s much less expensive, demanding, and time consuming to choose to refinish your kitchen cabinets rather than replace them entirely. If your current built-in cabinet units are in good condition and you’re happy with your kitchen’s established footprint, the best decision you can make is to choose the economical and environmentally friendly path of refinishing kitchen cabinets.
