Cabinet Refacing Houston: Save 50-60% vs Replacement

Cabinet Refacing vs Replacement in Houston

Cabinet refacing saves Houston homeowners $8,000-$15,000 compared to full replacement. Tell Projects evaluates cabinet structure to determine if refacing is viable.

What is Cabinet Refacing?

Refacing replaces cabinet doors, drawer fronts, and hardware while keeping existing cabinet boxes. Boxes receive new veneer or paint to match new doors. Hinges upgraded to soft-close. Countertops, sink, and layout remain unchanged.

Cost Comparison (10x12 Kitchen)

• Cabinet Refacing: $4,000-$9,000 (50-60% savings) - New doors, drawer fronts, hardware, box veneer
• Cabinet Replacement: $8,000-$25,000 - New cabinet boxes, doors, installation, disposal of old cabinets

When Refacing Works

Cabinet boxes structurally sound (no water damage, sagging, broken joints), current layout functional, boxes standard sizes, cabinets less than 30 years old. Refacing takes 3-5 days vs 1-2 weeks for replacement.

When Replacement Necessary

Water-damaged boxes, layout change desired, non-standard sizes, particle board boxes deteriorating, need more storage. Tell Projects provides honest assessment of best option for your Houston kitchen.
