New doors, drawer fronts, panels, and hardware on your existing cabinet boxes — a fraction of the cost of new cabinetry, done in days, not weeks.
If your cabinet boxes are square and solid but the doors look tired, refacing is the honest answer — and most contractors will not tell you that, because a full renovation bills more. We replace the doors, drawer fronts, side panels, and hardware, and re-edge the face frames, while your existing boxes, layout, and countertop stay exactly where they are.
The economics are simple: kitchen cabinet refacing in Toronto typically runs $6,000–$15,000 depending on the number of doors and the finish you choose — painted MDF, wood veneer, or textured laminate. A comparable set of brand-new custom cabinetry starts around double that, plus demolition, plus weeks without a kitchen. Refacing takes three to five working days, and you can cook every evening.
We are candid about when refacing is the wrong call: water-damaged boxes, failing particleboard, or a layout that fundamentally does not work are better served by a proper renovation. We inspect first, then quote whichever route actually serves you — with soft-close hinges, new handles, and an optional counter or backsplash refresh rolled into the same visit.
