Cabinet Refacing in La Presa, CA.
Cabinet Refacing for La Presa homes, done by insured San Diego County remodelers we match to your project. If your cabinet boxes are still solid but the doors are dated, the laminate is peeling, or the color is stuck in the 90s, refacing gives you a brand new look at a fraction of the cost of a full tear-out. We replace doors, drawer fronts, and veneer skins, swap to soft-close hinges, and add new hardware so the kitchen reads as a remodel without the mess of a gut job..
Why is cabinet refacing different in East County San Diego?
El Cajon and Santee ranch homes often have long runs of upper and lower cabinets that benefit from a uniform reface. We wrap the long runs in a continuous veneer, replace the doors in shaker or slab, and convert at least one section to glass fronts to break up the wall. Cabinet refacing in this region is a strong value play since the boxes tend to be in good condition.
