Cabinet Refacing in Valley Center, CA.

Why is cabinet refacing different in North County Inland San Diego?
Escondido, San Marcos, and Valley Center homes are good candidates for refacing when the boxes are in good shape but the doors read as dated. We typically specify paint-grade MDF shaker doors in a soft white or warm gray, with new hardware and a single soft-close upgrade. A reface in this region usually costs 40-50% of a full tear-out and finishes in 3-5 working days.
