Kitchen Cabinet Refacing: Why It's a Good Buyby Joe CooperKitchens and Cabinets Columnist E-Mail to a Friend Printer Friendly Version A typical kitchen remodel can cost tens of thousands of dollars. Kitchen cabinet refacing, on the other hand, costs an average of $1,000 to $5,000, providing a viable alternative to an expensive remodeling project. So why is cabinet refacing so affordable?
The Kitchen Remodel's Big Price TagThe most expensive part of a kitchen remodel is usually new kitchen cabinets. The next biggest cost is labor and installation. Buying and installing new kitchen cabinets can cost between $5,000 and $30,000 on average, driving the price of a remodel very high.Choosing new kitchen cabinets involves the complete removal of existing cabinets. Removing such a large piece of the kitchen can often reveal other problems, such as floor and wall damage that is otherwise unnoticed. This damage might have been easy to live with before, but now that it has been exposed, it will need repair before new kitchen cabinets can be installed. These repair costs also drive up the total kitchen remodeling cost. Why is Kitchen Cabinet Refacing Affordable?Here's why kitchen cabinet refacing costs are lower than the cost of new kitchen cabinets:
And don't forget the contractor's hourly rate. Cabinet refacing takes about half the time of new cabinet installation, increasing your savings even more. If your kitchen needs a facelift, consider refacing and save yourself time, money and effort. Source About the Author Joe Cooper writes home services and design articles and edits medical literature.
