Cabinet Refacing for Kitchens in Arlington Heights, IL

Are your kitchen cabinets looking faded? Do the drawers stick or wobble instead of gliding the way they used to? If so, cabinet refacing may be exactly what you need. This service gives your kitchen a completely updated look by replacing the doors, drawer fronts, and hardware while keeping your existing cabinet structure in place. 

Refined Spaces works with Arlington Heights, Illinois, homeowners who want their kitchens to feel current again without tearing everything out and starting over. We handle the whole process from design consultation to installation, so it stays straightforward the entire way through. 

​A Kitchen Cabinet Makeover That Fits Your Schedule

One of the most common concerns we hear is how long a kitchen will be out of commission. A traditional teardown can stretch across weeks or longer, and that kind of disruption doesn't fit most people's lives. Cabinet refacing takes three to five days from start to finish, so your kitchen is back in full use well before the week is out.

That short timeline isn't a corner cut. Because the cabinet boxes stay put and only the visible surfaces and hardware change, there's no demolition phase and no long wait between stages. You end up with a kitchen that looks new, minus the upheaval of a larger project.

What Cabinet Refacing Includes

Cabinet refacing keeps your existing cabinet boxes and covers them with fresh veneer in the color you choose, while replacing every component you see and touch with custom-made, USA-sourced materials. The result is a cohesive, finished look that carries through the whole space.

Here's what gets replaced or updated:

  • Doors and drawer fronts

  • Drawer boxes

  • Hinges and soft-close glides

  • Cabinet hardware

  • Veneer on the cabinet boxes

Why Arlington Heights Homeowners Choose Cabinet Refacing

A full kitchen teardown is a major investment, and for most people, it exceeds the budget they had in mind. Cabinet refacing delivers a meaningful update to the look and feel of your kitchen at a fraction of that cost, all while keeping your existing layout completely intact. You don't lose counter space, and there’s no need to reroute plumbing, take out walls, or spend months in a construction zone.

Refined Spaces is a family-owned and operated business. We're Better Business Bureau-accredited, and all materials we use are made in the USA. Our installers are factory-trained and certified, so the work is done right, and the finished result holds up the way it should. But don't just take our word for it: See what our customers have to say about working with us.

Common Questions About Cabinet Refacing in Arlington Heights

Most cabinet refacing projects finish in three to five days. That's a big difference from a traditional kitchen project, which can run weeks depending on the scope. Because we work with your existing cabinet structure rather than removing it, the timeline remains tight and predictable.

Cabinet refacing doesn't require demolition, so the disruption is far more limited than with a larger project. We'll give you a clear picture of what to expect during your in-home consultation, so nothing catches you off guard once work begins. Most people find the process much easier to live with than they expected.

It's a great one. Updating your kitchen's appearance without pulling it apart keeps costs well below a full teardown, and the result is a space that looks completely refreshed. You get the feel of a new kitchen without the expense of rebuilding from scratch, and your design consultant can walk you through exactly how the return stacks up during your in-home appointment. For homeowners who want real impact without an outsized budget, refacing is one of the more practical choices available.
