Kitchen Cabinet Refacing in Lake San Marcos, CA.
Kitchen Cabinet Refacing for Lake San Marcos 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. The crews we send 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..
What makes kitchen 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.

How much does kitchen cabinet refacing cost in San Diego?
Most San Diego cabinet refacing jobs run $8,000-$22,000 depending on the number of doors, the door style, and any layout changes. A 30-door kitchen with shaker doors in a paint-grade finish lands around $12,000-$16,000. Custom door styles, glass inserts, and full-overlay push it higher.
Is cabinet refinishing the same as cabinet refacing?
No. Refinishing sands and re-stains or repaints the doors you already have, so the style and layout stay the same. Refacing replaces the doors and drawer fronts and applies fresh veneer to the boxes, so the style, color, and hardware all change together. The crews we match you with handle refacing and full cabinet replacement, not stain-only refinishing. If the boxes are solid and you want a different look rather than the same look restored, refacing is the better value.
