One of the options open to you when you have chosen to refurbish or renovate your kitchen is to simply reface the kitchen cabinets and replace the counter tops.
Ripping out and replacing all of your cabinets is going to be an expensive exercise and it's often the case that going to such an extent is not necessary.
If your cabinets are still in good condition, a refacing job can result in a more than satisfactory result.
This process is sometimes also referred to as cabinet front replacement or cabinet restyling and involves removing old doors and drawer fronts, resurfacing the cabinet face frames and sides before refitting new doors and drawer fronts.
When performing cabinet refacing the job is done on site with the cabinetry performed in the kitchen.
The kitchen doors would naturally be removed and for the most part, they would be replaced with custom made ones.
The bonus with getting your kitchen doors custom made is that you have the freedom of choosing any new design or style that you want and this will go a long way towards deciding on the new tone of the kitchen.
When you have your kitchen cabinets refaced by professionals, their option is often to have the doors made by a custom door maker.
It's worthwhile taking advantage of this opportunity.
When you get your kitchen refaced you will have the option of doing the new version in any style that you want.
You can turn the dark cabinetry that was popular in the 1970s into a light, clean and stylish modern kitchen with the use of some oak or maple doors.
