cabinet refacing vs. getting new cabinets?
Has anyone done the refacing thing? the cabinets in the house we are in are fine but just outdated, anyone ever had theirs refaced? How much does something like this run?

I got a quote about a year ago from Kitchen Magic- about $9000 to reface my small kitchen, add a large base cabinet, and put in laminate countertops.
We ended up getting new cabinets and granite countertops instead.

new cabinets are usually close in price to refacing- I'd quote both out, you'd be surprised.

go to belowwholesalecabinets.com
Danielle and I went to the place on sunday in Huntington station and we are waiting for our price estimate. The guy, John told us that we will save close to 50% on the cabinets. We got a price from family kitchens for Shrock Cherry - cabinets. The cabinets we want are between 11k and 15k. I cant wait to see where John comes in at price wise. His cabinets are solid wood throughout, and all sides are finished.

I don't know about pricing, but our house has refacing that was done by the previous owners - I would never do it again. We have had a lot of problems with the doors not closing properly and hinges breaking. It may be that they just went with a cheap option but I don't know for sure.
My grandmother had her kitchen refaced a while ago and loves it, but she lives by herself and I don't know how much use the cabinets really get.
