Kitchen Cabinet Refacing
Denver, Colorado

A new look for cabinets you want to keep

If your kitchen layout works but the cabinet style feels dated, refacing may be worth considering. Denver Handyman Pros offers kitchen cabinet refacing in Denver and surrounding metro communities. Owner James Peak brings 35 years of construction experience to assessing your cabinets and planning the work.

What is cabinet refacing?

Refacing retains existing cabinet boxes that are suitable for reuse. The visible update typically involves new doors and drawer fronts, with matching material applied to exposed cabinet frames and sides. Hardware and finishing details are included according to the agreed scope.

The aim is to change the appearance of the cabinets while working with the existing cabinet arrangement. Refacing does not by itself create a different kitchen layout or correct damaged cabinet structure.

Discuss the details of your cabinet update

• Doors and drawer fronts: discuss the style, dimensions, and finish you want.
• Visible cabinet surfaces: review the face frames, exposed sides, fillers, and trim that need a coordinated finish.
• Hardware: ask about handles, knobs, hinges, and compatible operating hardware.
• Existing condition: identify loose components, damaged material, and doors or drawers that do not operate properly.
• Related work: discuss backsplash tile or other kitchen improvements separately so inclusions and exclusions are clear.

Material selection and hardware compatibility should be reviewed before ordering. Product availability, existing dimensions, and site conditions affect the final scope.

Refacing, painting, or replacing?

Refacing changes doors and drawer fronts and updates visible cabinet-box surfaces while keeping suitable boxes. Painting or refinishing changes the finish on existing components. Replacement involves removing cabinets and installing different units.

If the boxes are damaged, the storage arrangement does not meet your needs, or you want to move cabinets, a replacement or broader remodeling plan may be more appropriate. We can discuss your priorities before you commit to products.

Planning your refacing project

1. Review the existing kitchen. Share your location, cabinet concerns, approximate door and drawer counts, and the changes you want.
2. Agree on the scope. Review the selected fronts, visible surfaces, hardware, related repairs, and items staying in place.
3. Coordinate products and timing. Confirm measurements, product lead times, access, and the expected work sequence.
4. Complete the agreed update. Preparation, surface work, front installation, and hardware adjustments follow the approved project scope.
5. Review the finish details. Discuss alignment, operation, cleanup, and any questions about the completed work.

Cabinet refacing questions

Can every kitchen be refaced?

No. The condition of the boxes and the layout need to be assessed. Refacing is primarily an appearance update, so structural damage or a desired layout change may call for different work.

What does cabinet refacing cost?

Door and drawer counts, sizes, material choices, hardware, exposed surfaces, and repair needs affect the estimate. Contact us for pricing based on your kitchen rather than a generic package price.

How long will the work take?

Timing depends on measurements, material selection, product delivery, preparation, and installation scope. Confirm the schedule and how kitchen access will be affected before work begins.

Can I keep my countertops and backsplash?

Tell us which parts of the kitchen you want to retain. Their condition and the planned cabinet work need to be reviewed before confirming what can stay in place.

Is refacing the same as replacing cabinet doors?

Replacing doors and drawer fronts alone leaves the box finish unchanged. Refacing also addresses exposed cabinet-box surfaces as needed to coordinate the finished appearance.

Can refacing be part of a larger kitchen project?

Yes. Discuss related kitchen remodeling or backsplash tile installation so the sequence and responsibilities are clear.
