Cabinet Refacing in Paterson
Cabinet refacing is a targeted renovation that gives your kitchen or bathroom a new look without tearing out and replacing the entire cabinet structure. In Paterson, where many homes and apartments were built decades ago, the original cabinets are often solid wood or plywood boxes with worn-out doors, faded finishes, or outdated hardware. Refacing keeps the sturdy cabinet frames in place and replaces only the visible surfaces: doors, drawer fronts, and veneer. This matters because older Paterson properties often have well-built cabinets that simply need a facelift, not a full demolition.
The process begins with a careful inspection of your existing cabinet boxes to ensure they are structurally sound. Then we remove all doors, drawers, and hardware. We apply a new wood veneer or laminate to the exposed frames, matching the grain and color you choose. New doors and drawer fronts—custom-made to your specifications—are installed with updated hinges and drawer slides. Finally, we add new handles or knobs. The entire job is done on-site, usually within a few days, meaning your kitchen is not out of commission for weeks. For Paterson homeowners, refacing is a practical alternative to a full remodel: it costs significantly less, creates far less dust and disruption, and preserves the original layout and footprint of your cabinets. It is especially suitable for older homes in neighborhoods like Riverside, where original architectural details are worth keeping.

What to Expect
When you choose cabinet refacing, here is what the job actually involves:
- We protect your countertops, floors, and appliances with drop cloths and tape.
- All doors, drawer fronts, and hardware are removed and set aside.
- The exposed cabinet frames are cleaned, sanded, and prepared for new veneer.
- A new veneer or laminate is applied to all visible frame surfaces.

- New hinges and drawer slides are installed for smooth operation.
- New handles, knobs, or pulls are attached to match the new look.
- We clean up thoroughly and remove all old materials.
You keep your existing cabinet boxes, so there is no need to remove countertops, plumbing, or electrical. The work is typically completed in two to four days, depending on the size of the kitchen. You will have a refreshed space that looks and feels like new cabinets, but at a fraction of the cost and with minimal mess.
