Cabinet Refacing vs Replacing: Which is Better?
Refacing is a great option if your cabinet boxes are still in good shape and you're happy with the layout. It involves swapping out the doors and drawer fronts, covering the cabinet boxes with matching veneer, and updating hardware. At Ideal Home Improvement, we use real wood veneers, so the finished product looks and feels brand new without the cost or mess of a full gut job.
Replacing your cabinets is the bigger project. It gives you total freedom to redesign your layout, add storage, and choose new materials from the ground up. But it also comes with a bigger price tag, more disruption, and a longer timeline.
Bottom line: Refacing is quicker, more affordable, and less invasive, while replacement gives you a full blank slate.
