A brand new kitchen without tearing out your cabinets. New doors, drawer fronts, and veneer installed in 3-5 days.
Cabinet refacing is the fastest, most cost-effective way to completely change the look of your kitchen without ripping everything out. We replace your doors and drawer fronts and apply matching veneer to the cabinet boxes. Same layout, brand new look.
Your existing cabinet boxes stay in place. If they're structurally solid (and in most Lehigh Valley homes, they are), there's no reason to tear them out. We build on what's already there and give you a kitchen that looks like it was just installed.
The result? A kitchen that feels brand new in about a week, not the 6-8 weeks a full gut job takes. You keep your layout, your plumbing stays where it is, and there's no dumpster in the driveway.
Refacing is the right move when your cabinet boxes are still in good shape but the doors look dated. Maybe the style is wrong, the finish is worn, or you're just tired of looking at oak from 1995. If the bones are good, we can give you a completely different kitchen without the cost and disruption of tearing everything out.
Most of our refacing clients save 40-50% compared to a full cabinet replacement. You get the same visual transformation for roughly half the price, and you're back to normal in days instead of months.
Refacing makes the most sense when you're happy with your kitchen layout but want a modern, updated look. If you need to move walls or completely reconfigure the space, that's a different conversation (and we do that too).
Every refacing project we do is comprehensive. This isn't a surface-level cosmetic job; we replace all the components that define how your kitchen looks and feels.
One thing worth highlighting: the wood dovetail construction drawer boxes. A lot of companies skip this or use cheaper particle board alternatives. We don't. Dovetail joints are the strongest drawer construction method there is, and they're standard on every refacing job we do. Open and close them 50 times a day for 20 years — they'll hold up.
A typical refacing project takes 3-5 days from start to finish. Here's how it works:
Day one, we set up dust protection and remove your old doors, drawer fronts, and hardware. We start applying veneer to the cabinet boxes. Over the next few days, we install your new doors, drawer fronts, hinges, slides, and hardware. On the final day, we do touch-ups, adjustments, and a walkthrough with you.
We clean up at the end of every day — no dust tracked through the house, no nails on the floor. You can walk through and check out the progress each evening.
Dave (the owner) is on every job, along with Josh. You're not dealing with a rotating crew of strangers. The same two people who start the project are the ones who finish it.
Let's talk real numbers. Cabinet refacing typically runs $8,000–$15,000 for an average Lehigh Valley kitchen, depending on door style, materials, and whether you're adding countertops.
For context, a full cabinet replacement for the same kitchen usually runs $20,000–$35,000 or more. Refacing gives you the same visual impact for significantly less, because we're not demolishing and rebuilding — we're transforming what's already there.
What drives the final number? Mostly door style and material. A simple shaker door in thermofoil costs less than a raised-panel solid wood door. The number of cabinets matters too — a galley kitchen with 15 doors is different from a U-shaped kitchen with 35. We'll give you an exact price during your free in-home estimate. No pressure, no gimmicks.
Nothing tells the story better than seeing an actual transformation. These are real kitchens we've refaced in the Lehigh Valley.
Every kitchen is different, and the best way to know exactly what refacing will look like (and cost) for yours is a free in-home estimate. We'll look at your cabinets, talk through your options, and give you a straightforward price. No sales pitch, no pressure.
