Cabinet Refinishing vs. Refacing

It’s important to consider all your options when your kitchen cabinets no longer make you happy. You have the option to have your cabinets refinished, refaced, or replaced. Cabinet refinishing involves changing the color or finish of your cabinets. Our professionals do this by hand sanding or stripping the finish from your cabinets before we apply new paint or stain. Cabinet refacing involves replacing your cabinet doors and drawer fronts with brand-new ones. We place new material or veneer on top of your drawers and cabinet frames to match your new doors. This process may also require replacing moldings, side panels, and face framings.

Options for Refinishing Your Kitchen Cabinets

Many homeowners find that refinishing the kitchen cabinets is the best choice. Our cabinet refinishers in Frisco are happy to provide you with a consultation and the cost to refinish your kitchen cabinets. Three options for refinishing your kitchen cabinetry are painting, glazing, and staining. Staining your cabinets with highly natural grain can add rich color tones to dark wood. Painting cabinets results in a smooth, solid surface and color. Glazing cabinets add contrast and dimension. Our team can help you decide the best option for your kitchen cabinets.
