Remodeling a kitchen can be the most expensive home improvement job in your house, especially if you're planning on replacing your old cabinets with new ones. So maybe it isn't a total replacement that you really need. If your existing cabinets are still solid and well-made but look tacky and out-of-date, you may want to consider refacing them, which will make them look like new at a fraction of the cost. So exactly how much can you expect to pay it you install new cabinetry, and what will it cost you to reface your old cabinets?
You may have spent time admiring the beautiful cabinets you see in a home improvement store or kitchen showroom. Have you ever taken the time to price them? In this price you're talking the removal of the old cabinets, the new cabinets, and installation fees. Too many people look at the price of the cabinets and don't stop to think about the extras. For example, you can find pre-built stock cabinets to fit a 10' x 12' kitchen for as little as $4,000, but that does not include either the installation of the cabinets or the new countertops you will need.
If you decide to go with semi-custom cabinets which allow you to choose from various options prior to having your cabinets built, you're going to end up paying about double the amount you would pay for stock cabinets with $8,000 being about the minimum. If you add any extras to the basic styles, such as fancy trim, glass fronts, or exotic woods, the cost will escalate. And, oh yes, you don't want to forget the installation and countertops for these cabinets, either.
Custom cabinets are the top of the line, because they are built specifically for your home. They will be unique and beautiful, but they're also going to end up costing you at least $16,000 for a 10' x 12' kitchen. The fancy hardwood construction, the more intricate the moldings, the extra features, such as plate racks, pantries, lift outs, installation, and countertops, whether you choose laminate, granite, or some other finish, are going to end up costing you even more.
The simplest and most cost-effective method of refacing cabinets is by painting them. This is a job you can do yourself in your spare time to save on labor charges. There are other options available, however, that may require professional installation unless you have the skills to do the job yourself. You'll find that you will save you as much as 50% off of what you'd have to pay a professional by doing your own work. In addition, refacing cabinets yourself can save you more than 75% off of what new cabinets would cost.
There are definitely many options to consider when you get ready to remodel your kitchen. If your cabinets are falling apart, you will have to buy new ones. However, if they are solid and only in need of an update, you can get the look you want for a lot less money with refacing.
