Carolina Cabinet Refacing Discusses Why Cabinet Refacing Is Better Than Refinishing

    CHARLOTTE, NC, February 12, 2014 /24-7PressRelease/ -- When it's time to upgrade your kitchen cabinetry, there are several different options available, each with a different price point and end result.

For people who like the overall layout of their cabinets but dislike the exterior appearance, the primary options are between refacing and refinishing their cabinets. But what is the difference between refacing and refinishing? The experts at Carolina Cabinet Refacing want to help you understand.

Cabinet Refacing

Refacing your cabinets is a process that involves removing and replacing all of the cabinet doors and drawer fronts with new ones. You will keep your original cabinet boxes and drawers, which provide the basic structure of your cabinets, but you will be able to achieve a completely new look through your new drawer fronts and cabinet doors.

Most of cabinet refacing customers want their new custom cabinets in Charlotte, N.C., to accurately represent their personal taste and style. They feel limited by the options their current cabinets provide, or they do not like the overall shape or design of the existing drawer fronts or cabinet doors.

Cabinet Refinishing

Refinishing your Charlotte cabinets allows you to keep all of the original doors and drawer fronts that came with your cabinets, while also allowing you to change superficial aspects of their appearance. Your existing cabinetry will have its finish stripped off through either chemicals or a sanding process, then a new paint or stain will be applied.

The problems with refinishing are twofold. For one, the refinishing process can only be performed with all-wood cabinets. If your cabinets are laminate or another composite material, all you can do with refinishing is to paint them. The other issue is that refinishing will wear down your cabinet wood over time. After several refinishing sessions, you will be forced to completely reface your cabinets.
