Get matched with top kitchen cabinet refacing pros in Southside, AR

A kitchen remodel can be a major undertaking, depending on how much you change. If you’re changing the kitchen layout, you might be tempted to scrap everything and start fresh, but there are a few different ways to save money throughout the process. 

• Keep your existing cabinets and reface or repaint them 

• Consider choosing budget appliances and fixtures 

• DIY when possible, such as painting walls yourself

• Choose prefabricated cabinets instead of custom cabinetry

• Choose affordable flooring options where possible

Kitchen remodeling can be as minor as a new coat of paint or as significant as a kitchen expansion to add more space. Some common things to include in a kitchen remodel include:

• New appliances

• Fresh flooring

• New paint on walls or cabinets

• Luxury countertops

• New or custom cabinets

• Lighting fixtures

• New cabinet hardware

• Changes in electrical or plumbing locations

• New sink and faucet

Properly maintained, resurfacing typically lasts 5-10 years. Factors like surface usage and exposure to chemicals affect longevity.

No, in most cases, you do not have to remove your countertops to reface cabinets. Since refacing primarily involves updating the doors, drawer fronts, and exterior surfaces, your existing countertops can usually stay right where they are, making the process quicker and less disruptive. However, if your counters prevent the access needed to remove doors and drawers, they may need to be temporarily removed. It's best to consult with a professional cabinet contractor to assess your specific kitchen layout during an estimate.
