Cabinet Refacing in Reno, NV

Cabinet Refacing planned around your kitchen, with a written price before work starts.

How we handle cabinet refacing

Cabinet refacing gives the boxes you already have a new face: fresh veneer on the frames, new doors and drawer fronts, and new hardware.

Because nothing is torn out, the kitchen stays usable for most of the job and the cost is far below new cabinets.

About 49% of Reno homes are owner-occupied, and the median home value is around $498,600, so a well-planned kitchen protects a real investment.

What our cabinet refacing covers

Box inspection

We check the cabinet boxes first; refacing only makes sense if they are sound and dry.

New doors and fronts

Shaker, slab or raised-panel doors in the finish you pick.

Hardware and hinges

Soft-close hinges and new pulls fitted to every door and drawer.

Why cabinet refacing is worth doing right

A kitchen gets used every day, so shortcuts show up fast: doors that sag, seams that open, outlets in the wrong place.

Get it right once and you will not be paying to fix it in five years.

Good to know

Refacing does not change the layout. If you want more storage or a different shape, new cabinets are the better spend.

Water damage under the sink usually means that box should be replaced, even if the rest are refaced.

Kitchen work that changes plumbing, electrical or gas lines, or moves walls, needs a permit; cabinets, countertops and paint on their own usually do not. Reno reviews new work against the 2024 building codes adopted on July 1, 2025. Questions go to the City of Reno Building Division at (775) 334-2063.
