Expert guide
Is cabinet refacing right for your kitchen?
Refacing is the smartest dollar in a kitchen update — but only when the existing boxes are sound. Here's how we evaluate every Central Florida kitchen before quoting.
Best candidates for refacing
If your layout works and your cabinet boxes are structurally solid, refacing delivers a brand-new kitchen at roughly half the cost of replacement.
- Plywood or solid-wood boxes (not particleboard sagging at the shelves)
- Layout you already like — sink, range, and fridge stay put
- Doors and drawer fronts are the main eyesore
- You want minimal downtime and zero demolition dust
What drives the cost
Two kitchens the same size can quote thousands apart. The biggest cost drivers are door style, material, and how much hardware you're upgrading.
- Door material: thermofoil < painted MDF < solid wood
- Door count and drawer-front count (not square footage)
- Soft-close hinges and full-extension slides on every opening
- Crown molding, light rail, and decorative end panels
- Pull-out trays, lazy susans, and interior organizers
When refacing is not enough
We'll tell you straight. If any of these apply, replacement or a partial rebuild is the honest recommendation — not refacing.
- Water-damaged or delaminating cabinet boxes
- You want to move the sink, range, or a wall of cabinets
- Particleboard boxes that won't hold new hinge screws
- You're adding an island or significantly changing storage
Frequently asked
How long does cabinet refacing take?+
Most Orlando kitchens are completed in three to five working days from start to finish, with the active in-home work usually wrapping in 2 to 4 days.
How much does cabinet refacing cost in Orlando, FL?+
Most Central Florida cabinet refacing projects fall between $6,000 and $13,000 for an average 25-linear-foot kitchen, depending on door material (thermofoil, painted MDF, or solid wood), hardware upgrades, and soft-close additions. That is roughly half the cost of full cabinet replacement.
Is cabinet refacing cheaper than painting in the long run?+
Yes. Painted cabinets in Florida humidity typically need to be redone every 3 to 5 years. By year 8, the cumulative cost of repeated paint jobs exceeds a one-time refacing investment — and refacing still looks brand new at year 16+.
Is there cabinet refacing near me in Central Florida?+
Yes. We serve a 50-mile corridor from Kissimmee in the south, north up I-4 through Orlando, Sanford and Daytona, and east along I-95 to the Space Coast and Palm Bay. Free in-home estimates throughout that area.
What's actually included in a cabinet refacing project?+
Every refacing project includes new custom doors and drawer fronts, matching wood veneer over your existing cabinet boxes, soft-close German hinges, full-extension drawer slides, a hardware allowance, daily cleanup, haul-away of old doors, and a lifetime warranty — all on a written flat-fee quote.
How long do refaced cabinets last in Florida?+
Properly installed refacing with Greenguard-rated finishes, plywood door cores, and marine-grade adhesives typically lasts 20 to 25+ years even in Central Florida humidity. Painted cabinets, by comparison, usually need to be redone every 3 to 5 years.
Do I have to empty my cabinets?+
Only the items near the doors. We work around your daily life as much as possible and you'll have access to your sink, fridge, and stove every evening.
What materials can I choose for the doors?+
Solid wood, painted MDF, and thermofoil in dozens of door styles and finishes — including white shaker, raised panel, flat panel, glass-insert, and modern European profiles.
Will my kitchen be unusable during refacing?+
No. Refacing requires no demolition. You'll have access to your sink, refrigerator, and stove every evening during the 2 to 4 day project.
What is the difference between cabinet refacing and resurfacing?+
They are the same service. 'Cabinet resurfacing' is simply another term Orlando homeowners use for refacing — replacing the doors, drawer fronts, and veneering the existing cabinet boxes.
Do you offer financing for cabinet refacing?+
Yes. We offer flexible monthly payment plans on approved credit so you can start your kitchen refacing project right away. Ask about current promotions during your free estimate.

Timeline of savings — what you'll really spend over 16+ years
Cabinet paint chips, yellows and needs to be redone every 3–5 years in Florida's humidity. Refacing is a one-time investment that holds for two decades or more — so the longer you stay, the more refacing wins.
| Option | Year 1–3 | Year 4–6 | Year 6–10 | Year 11–15 | Year 16+ | Total |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Paint (re-do every ~4 yrs) | $2,500 | $5,000 | $7,500 | $10,000 | $12,500 | $12,500+ and counting |
| Refacing (one-time) | $9,000 | $9,000 | $9,000 | $9,000 | $9,000 | $9,000 — still looks new |
| Cabinet replacement (one-time) | $20,000 | $20,000 | $20,000 | $20,000 | $20,000 | $20,000 |
| Minor remodel (one-time) | $25,000 | $25,000 | $25,000 | $25,000 | $25,000 | $25,000 |
Break-even: by year 8, refacing has cost you less than repeated paint jobs. By year 16+ you've saved over $3,500 vs. the paint-and-redo cycle — and your kitchen still looks like the day it was installed.
