Written by Tina Bradford | Nov 4, 2022

 

An ideal kitchen remodel improves the aesthetics, functionality and, most importantly, your enjoyment of one of the most used spaces in your home. An updated kitchen design can also increase the real estate value of your property. So, how do you maximize budget and time when considering a kitchen remodel? The answer may be to choose refacing, or a cabinet remodel. Keep on reading if you’d like to learn more about all of the benefits you can get when refacing your cabinets.

 

Is it worth it to reface kitchen cabinets?

Sometimes kitchen remodels aim solely at changing the cabinets' appearance. In case your cabinetry just looks dated or dingy, think again before you decide to tear them out.. Consider affordable refacing instead of replacing them and give your existing cabinetry a new lease on life. Plus- you will keep them out of the landfill!

What, exactly, is cabinet refacing?

Cabinet refacing is a time-and-money-saving process that has transformed countless kitchens for decades. This highly efficient method can save an impressive amount -- potentially up to half the cost compared to all new cabinetry. Now that's excellent news!

 

Is cabinet refacing a good investment?

Are you pleased with your current kitchen layout? Are your existing cabinet boxes structurally sound? Are you adequately storing your belongings? If you answered yes to these questions, congratulations! You are a likely candidate for cabinet refacing. However, if you're looking for a total kitchen overhaul, or custom cabinetry, then new kitchen cabinets may be just what you’re looking for.

 

Do all cabinet refacing companies near me offer the same quality?

Homeowners beware! Not all cabinet refacing companies are equal. Some remodeling companies may simply glue a single sheet of laminate or veneer over your existing cabinet doors. But, when laminate or veneer wears out, tears, or comes loose, the homeowner is left without recourse — and little or no measure for repair.  

On the other hand, Kitchen Magic uses superior materials, expertly installed with an exclusive permanent double lamination process. For most cabinetry, all exterior cabinet frame surfaces are covered with a final layer of laminate or natural wood refacing material. The result is a more substantial, brand new look that transforms your kitchen into a truly unique space. 

 

Can cabinet refacing offer stunning style too?

Yes! You can select from hundreds of styles and colors. Want to reach to the ceiling with your new cabinetry? No problem. Need to add storage pullouts and other solutions? We can help! How about changing up your door style to the newest shaker look in the latest trending colors?

 

 

 

 

Does refacing cabinets last long?

The average downtime for most homeowners who choose kitchen cabinet refacing is about a week. Installation of additional materials including - but not limited to - countertops, backsplash tile, and flooring may increase the amount of time required.
