Keep Sound Boxes and Replace Visible Surfaces
- Existing boxes. Kitchen cabinet refacing near Pompano Beach and Fort Lauderdale starts with boxes worth keeping in an arrangement that already serves your cooking and storage needs.
- New fronts. Your remodeler measures for replacement doors and drawer fronts, then fits them to the retained cabinets with the chosen style and spacing.
- Frame coverings. Veneer or laminate covers the visible frame surfaces, with matching exposed ends considered so old and new finishes do not compete.
- Updated operation. New hinges, pulls and knobs complete the visible change, with compatible hardware selected for the retained boxes and new fronts.
- Limits of refacing. Water-damaged boxes or a planned change in cabinet arrangement point toward new cabinet installation rather than covering surfaces that no longer support the kitchen you need.
When the Fronts Need More Attention Than the Boxes
- The cabinets feel solid. Firm shelves and intact boxes make refacing worth discussing when the visible doors have lost their appeal.
- The arrangement works already. Comfortable access to cookware, food and preparation space favors keeping a cabinet run that meets your daily needs.
- The finish looks uneven. Worn edges, mismatched doors or peeling coverings can make the kitchen feel tired even when its storage remains useful.
- A different door style would help. A simpler front and coordinated handles may deliver the visual change you want without changing where cabinets sit.
- The counters still suit you. A wish to retain surrounding finishes gives your remodeler a reason to discuss how the refacing scope meets those surfaces.
You can call while those preferences are still taking shape.
Set the Retained Boxes and New Door Details
| Decision | The choices | Settled before demolition |
|---|---|---|
| Boxes to retain | Keep sound boxes or discuss replacing damaged units | Which cabinets suit the refacing scope |
| Door profile | Recessed panels, flat fronts or another compatible style | The replacement front design and fit |
| Surface covering | Wood veneer or laminate with matching exposed ends | How the new fronts and frames coordinate |
| Hinges and handles | Compatible hinges, knobs or bar pulls | The opening action and handle placement |
Your remodeler checks the existing arrangement before discussing samples, because new fronts do not change how much a cabinet holds. Compare the frame covering with a door sample and the counters and backsplash you intend to keep. Handles and hinge choices follow the selected front.
On the call, describe the finish you dislike and anything that feels loose, swollen or difficult to open. You can discuss lighting and fixture preferences afterward, then how the new cabinet finish relates to the floor. You do not need to identify the veneer or measure every door yourself.
How Retained Cabinets Get New Fronts
- Start with the visible problem. Call about worn fronts, peeling frame coverings or a door style you want to change while keeping the existing arrangement.
- Inspect and match. Your remodeler examines the boxes, measures the cabinet openings and compares replacement fronts, surface coverings and compatible hardware with you.
- Set the written scope. The retained boxes, replacement parts, preparation and price are explained together before the refacing work starts.
- Reface and check. Old fronts and hardware are removed as agreed, frames are prepared and covered, and new fronts and hardware are fitted; the final walk-through checks edges, gaps and door movement.
What Changes Refacing Costs Around Pompano Beach
| Factor | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Doors and drawer fronts | Their number, dimensions and profile determine the replacement front order. |
| Covering material | Veneer and laminate choices change the materials and preparation involved. |
| Exposed cabinet ends | Additional visible sides require matching coverings and careful edge finishing. |
| Existing surface condition | Loose coverings and damaged areas change what must be addressed before new material is applied. |

Plan for Dust, Adhesives and Everyday Meals
Empty the cabinets, move breakables, and clear counters and the floor before work starts; the call comes first. Keep food covered outside the work zone and pets and children away from it.
OSHA's wood dust overview says airborne wood particles from processes such as sanding and cutting make wood dust a potential health problem. EPA recommends barriers and ventilation to contain dust and pollutants during a remodel. Ask your remodeler how the work area will be separated from occupied rooms.
According to EPA's RRP page, renovation, repair or painting in pre-1978 homes or buildings with lead-based paint can easily create dangerous lead dust, and the RRP Rule covers anyone paid to perform work disturbing painted surfaces in homes built before 1978. EPA advises treating doubtful material as containing asbestos and leaving it alone, and its asbestos guidance identifies planned home remodeling that can disturb building materials as a situation to be aware of.

Answers on Cabinet Refacing
What stays in place when cabinets are refaced?
Refacing keeps the sound cabinet boxes and replaces doors, drawer fronts and the visible surface coverings. New hinges and handles are selected to work with those retained cabinets. A cabinet refacing company should itemize which ends, edges and trim are included so the finished appearance is clear from the written scope.
Is refacing worthwhile when my kitchen cabinets still work?
Refacing is worth considering when the boxes remain sound, the arrangement is useful and the main problem is appearance. Look at how well the existing shelves and drawers serve your cooking habits alongside the door style. Tell your remodeler about soft areas or loose parts so surface changes do not hide a deeper cabinet problem.
How does cabinet refacing compare with painting?
Refacing changes the fronts and adds coverings to visible cabinet frames, while painting changes the coating on the existing surfaces. Painting may suit doors whose shape you already like. Refacing offers a different door profile, but both approaches depend on usable underlying cabinets and preparation suited to the material.
What makes cabinet refacing cost vary between kitchens?
Front count, door dimensions, covering material, hardware and existing surface condition all affect refacing cost. A kitchen with several exposed cabinet ends needs a different scope from one with few visible sides. Ask your remodeler to separate the new components from preparation so the price reflects the work your cabinets actually need.
Will refacing work when some cabinet boxes have water damage?
A damaged box needs assessment before it is included in refacing, because a new covering does not restore its strength. Your remodeler checks whether any individual unit needs replacement and whether retaining the rest still makes sense. Describe swollen edges or soft shelves during the call; you do not need to test or dismantle them.
