Hey there, homeowners! If your kitchen is starting to show its age and you’re dreaming of a fresh, new look, you’re in the right place. As a designer at ADK Designs and Kitchens, I’ve seen firsthand how a simple kitchen update can transform a home. But let’s be honest—full kitchen remodels can be pricey and disruptive. That’s where kitchen refacing comes in. In this post, I’ll share how refacing can help you save money and some other fantastic benefits that come with it.
Cost Savings
First things first, let’s talk money. Full kitchen remodels are amazing, but they come with a hefty price tag. We’re talking new cabinets, countertops, appliances, plumbing, and electrical work—all of which can add up quickly. Kitchen refacing, on the other hand, focuses on refreshing your existing cabinets. We replace the cabinet doors, drawer fronts, and hardware, and apply a new veneer to the cabinet boxes. This way, you get a brand-new look without the brand-new cost.
On average, kitchen refacing can save you up to 50% or more compared to a full remodel. That’s a lot of cash you can keep in your pocket or put towards other home improvements. Plus, a well-done refacing can extend the life of your kitchen, delaying the need for a more extensive renovation down the line. It’s a win-win for your wallet and your kitchen.
And here’s some great news—at ADK Designs and Kitchens, we’re currently offering a special promotion on kitchen refacings starting from just $1800! It’s the perfect opportunity to give your kitchen a facelift without breaking the bank.
Advantages of Kitchen Refacing
Aside from saving you a ton of money, kitchen refacing has several other perks that make it a great choice for many homeowners.
1. Time Efficiency
- A full kitchen remodel can take weeks or even months. That’s a long time to be without your kitchen. Refacing, however, is a much quicker process. Typically, we can get it done in just a few days, so you can start enjoying your new space almost immediately.
2. Environmental Benefits
- Refacing is also an eco-friendly option. We’re reusing your existing cabinet structures, which means less waste ends up in the landfill. Many refacing materials are available in sustainable options, so you can feel good about making an environmentally conscious choice for your home.
3. Minimal Disruption
- Since we’re not tearing out your entire kitchen, refacing involves much less mess and disruption. You won’t have to deal with the dust, noise, and inconvenience of a full remodel. This means you can continue to use your kitchen throughout the process—perfect for busy households.
4. Customization Options
- One of the best things about refacing is the variety of customization options available. You can choose from countless styles, colors, and finishes for your new cabinet doors and drawer fronts. Update your hardware to match, and you’ve got a kitchen that reflects your personal taste and style.
5. Increase in Home Value
- A beautifully refaced kitchen can significantly boost the appeal of your home. If you’re thinking of selling, a modern, updated kitchen can be a major selling point. It’s a smart investment that can increase your property’s value.
Process of Kitchen Refacing
So, how does kitchen refacing work? Let me walk you through the process:
1. Initial Consultation and Planning
- It all starts with a chat. We’ll discuss your vision for the space, your budget, and your timeline. I’ll take some measurements and give you recommendations based on what you’re looking for.
2. Selection of Materials and Styles
- Next, you’ll choose the materials and styles for your new cabinet doors, drawer fronts, and hardware. There are so many options, from classic wood finishes to sleek, modern designs. This step is all about making sure your refaced kitchen matches your aesthetic goals.
3. Removal of Old Cabinet Doors and Fronts
- The old cabinet doors, drawer fronts, and hardware come off. Don’t worry; we’ll be careful to preserve the integrity of the cabinet boxes.
4. Installation of New Materials
- Here’s where the magic happens. We’ll install the new cabinet doors, drawer fronts, and veneer, paying close attention to detail to ensure everything fits perfectly.
5. Final Touches and Inspection
- Once everything is installed, we’ll add the final touches—adjusting hardware and making sure everything is secure. We’ll do a thorough inspection to ensure the refacing meets your expectations.
Real-life Examples
To give you a better idea of what’s possible with a simple kitchen refacing, let’s look at a real-life example. The Maturana family wanted to update their 20-year-old kitchen but were concerned about the cost of a full remodel. They decided to go with kitchen refacing and the result was a modern kitchen that felt brand new—all for a fraction of the cost of a complete renovation. The Maturana were thrilled with the outcome and appreciated the quick turnaround time. It was done in 2 days!
