New doors, drawer fronts, and veneer over the boxes you already own — a transformed kitchen in days, not weeks.
Refacing keeps your existing cabinet boxes and replaces everything you see and touch: new doors and drawer fronts, matching veneer on the frames, new hinges and hardware. If the layout works and the boxes are structurally sound, refacing delivers the look of a new kitchen for roughly half the cost of replacement — with far less dust and downtime.
Every box checked for square, water damage, and anchor integrity before refacing is quoted.
Made-to-order fronts in your door style, wood, and finish — the face of the new room.
Matching veneer or laminate applied over face frames so old boxes disappear.
Soft-close hinges and new pulls throughout — the feel matters as much as the look.
Finished end panels, crown, and light rail to close out the built-in look.
Roll-out trays, drawer conversions, and a matching island can join the scope.
Refacing is quietly the perfect Wilmington remodel. The city’s rowhomes and post-war suburbs are full of kitchens with sound plywood or solid-wood boxes under dated doors — cabinets built better than most of what big-box stores sell today. From Highlands twins to Brookside splits, a pro who knows this stock can tell in one walkthrough whether your boxes earn a reface or a replacement — and the answer changes the budget by thousands.
Typically about half the cost of comparable new cabinets. The final number depends on door style, finish, and add-ons — call and describe the kitchen for a range.
Usually three to five days on site, and your kitchen stays mostly usable through the process. Doors and fronts are made to order ahead of the install.
If the boxes are solid — often yes. Older plywood and solid-wood boxes are frequently better than new budget lines. A pro’s inspection settles it in minutes.
Describe your kitchen and what you want changed. We’ll connect you with a local Wilmington pro who can scope it — the call takes two minutes.
