Is Cabinet Refinishing Worth It?
Whether you’re planning a full kitchen remodel or just wanting to freshen up the look of your kitchen, deciding what to do with your cabinets is quite possibly the most important aspect of the project. Cabinets are undoubtedly the centerpiece of any kitchen, so it’s key to make sure that they create a cohesive look that complements the rest of your home and provides the finished look you want.
However, you may not want to go through the trouble of demolishing and removing your existing cabinets and replacing them with new ones. Cabinet refinishing can give your cabinets a new look without all of the time and costs that come along with replacing them. Let us help you decide if cabinet refinishing is the right option for you.
Benefits of Refinishing Kitchen Cabinets
Savings
The costs of a full kitchen remodel can easily climb to ten thousand dollars or more depending on your budget. Cabinet refinishing can reduce the costs of cabinet replacement by as much as 50%.
Style
Even though you’re not starting from scratch, you are starting with a blank slate. Cabinet refinishing gives you an almost unlimited choice of custom colors and unique design options to suit your kitchen’s look, like glazing, antiquing, or distressing.
Accessories
Cabinets aren’t the only thing that can add to your new kitchen. The knobs, pulls, and hinges you select can enhance the style and function of your cabinets and drawers. From replacing outdated pulls to using hidden hinges, the options are endless.
Convenience
Replacing your cabinets is no small job and could take a couple weeks and typically requires appliance removal, and sometimes new construction, making your kitchen an unusable construction zone during the renovation process. Refinishing takes much less time and your kitchen remains fully functional throughout the process.
Things to Consider Before Refinishing Your Kitchen Cabinets
Cabinet refinishing is an easy, affordable option for homeowners who want to update their kitchen’s look, but there are some things to consider before doing so. It’s important that your current cabinets are made of high quality materials and in good condition, especially if you plan to sell your home in the future. If your new cabinets will see a high level of use and abuse, you may want an upgraded, more durable finish to increase the longevity of your kitchen.
