What is Cabinet Refacing and Why Should I Consider it for My Home?

Oftentimes, homeowners get tired of their kitchen cabinet’s appearance and think they need to demolish cabinetry that is still in good structural shape in order to achieve a new look. With cabinet resurfacing, also called refacing, one can still drastically change the style and feel of their kitchen but with a fraction of the time and money new cabinetry entails. Cabinet refacing is different from cabinet refinishing where the only thing changing is the finish or color of the existing materials.
Our Latest Kitchen Transformations
Traditional Kitchen Remodel Done in Walnut in a Natural Finish
For this kitchen, the homeowners had a granite countertop that they wanted to maintain, so cabinet refacing was the perfect solution for them. The original cabinets were an oak with medium stain and the homeowners wanted to go with a different look. We refaced the cabinets with a raised panel door and drawer fronts in a budget grade walnut in a natural finish. We then did some additional work to the cabinets. We added to the height of the pantry, above the fridge, and the cabinets on the opposite wall. We also added a new cabinet above the microwave and moved it higher to provide more distance between the microwave and range top. Next we removed all the decorative panels and wooden bar supports and installed new wainscot panels around the outside of the peninsula and added black metal countertop supports. The hardware was done in a matte black finish which ties into the counter supports.

New Cabinetry
Transitional Kitchen Remodel Done in Snow White

Kitchen Solvers of Emerald Coast

Check out this beautiful kitchen remodeling project. The homeowners were looking to give their kitchen a more transitional beach glam look by installing new cabinets. First we removed all the soffit in the kitchen and bar area and installed the new cabinets to ceiling height. We also took out the cabinets above the peninsula which really let the natural light flow into the room and opened the area up more. The new cabinets were done in the Arlington door style from the Kitchen Solvers Classic Collection line done in maple and a snow white color.

Transitional Kitchen Remodel Done in a Downy White Finish

Kitchen Solvers of Fort Wayne

This kitchen went through a stunning transformation to give it a fresh new look. The cabinets were still in good condition, so the homeowners decided to reface the existing cabinets. They went with the Lincoln door from the Kitchen Solvers Classic Collection done in a downy white finish and pewter glaze. We also added cabinet boxes to the tops of the existing wall cabinets and upper and lower cabinets to the left of the sink. We then removed the microwave and installed a stainless steel hood in its place. Next we installed new under cabinet lights and also ran lighting inside the glass doored cabinets. To finish the new look we installed a ceramic tile backsplash in a light gray.

Jay and Jill McAdams
Kitchen Solvers of Emerald Coast
Jay and Jill’s adventure started when they met 20 years ago at Clemson University, South Carolina. When Jay’s past career kept moving their young family further up the northeastern coast, they decided it was best to relocate back south to be closer to their families and create a more balanced lifestyle. Both ingrained with entrepreneurial spirit, choosing the Kitchen Solvers franchise was a no brainer.
 
“Owning a Kitchen Solvers territory allows us to build a customer service driven business. We are privileged to get to work with our amazing homeowners and transform their kitchens into a stunning, functional space for their families,“ says Jay McAdams.
 
In 2020, the McAdams celebrated their 5th year anniversary with the franchise. Their hard work and business focus has earned them several design and customer service awards over the years, including “Kitchen Solvers Franchise Lombardi Award”. The most valued compliment though is the 5 star google reviews and consistent referrals by past customers.
 
Jay and Jill enjoy spending time with their children, Ava and Henry.

Larry and his team were fantastic. We are first-time home buyers, and we did our first major renovation project with Kitchen Solvers, and it went as smoothly as we could have hoped for. Larry was thoughtful and thorough. He spotted a couple of things which could have been minor quibbles or big headaches down the road and gave us cost-effective solutions for dealing with them. We had a couple unique requests, but Larry worked closely with manufactures and his team to deliver everything we asked for. This relieved a ton of the anxiety we were feeling about this project. The kitchen looks exactly how we wanted it, and the price was more than reasonable. Larry is also just a nice guy who was pleasant to have around for a few days while he worked. If we have any more home projects coming up, we know exactly who we're calling first. Thanks again, Larry!Larry and his team were fantastic.
