A Fresh Kitchen in Days: Cabinet Refacing for Gatlinburg, TN, Homes

If your kitchen functions the way you want it but looks outdated, you should consider cabinet refacing. Unlike remodeling, cabinet refacing delivers a modernized kitchen in days, not months.

K&P Remodeling has been helping the Gatlinburg, Tennessee, area get a kitchen that looks and functions like new since 2012 without tearing out what's already working. We replace what you see and upgrade everything that moves.
What Cabinet Refacing Includes for Your Gatlinburg Kitchen

Kitchen cabinet refacing replaces the visible components of your cabinetry and includes hardware upgrades. We’ll replace your cabinet door and drawer fronts with new doors in the style and finish you choose, then re-veneers the exterior of your existing cabinet boxes to match.​

A refacing project includes:​

• New Cabinet Doors and Drawer Fronts: Replaced in your chosen style and finish.

• Cabinet Box Re-Veneering: New veneer applied to existing boxes in your selected finish.

• Soft-Close Hinges and Drawer Glides: Upgraded hardware so doors and drawers close quietly and smoothly.

• Cabinet Additions or Height Changes: Extend cabinetry to the ceiling or add cabinets where needed.

• Countertop Replacement: Available as an add-on to complete the kitchen update.

Refacing Process: No Demolition, No Weeks of Waiting

Most people are surprised by how straightforward refacing is. A typical kitchen project is completed in 3 to 5 days, and your kitchen stays accessible throughout. There's no gutting the space and no extended downtime.

We don’t remove your cabinet boxes. The existing box structure is retained and re-veneered rather than demolished. We keep what works in your kitchen instead of tearing out and replacing perfectly good materials.

Why Gatlinburg Residents Choose Refacing Over a Full Remodel

A full kitchen remodel carries a full price tag and a timeline that can stretch over months of demolition and reinstallation. If you like your kitchen's footprint and just want it to look current, that's harder to justify.​

Cabinet refacing delivers a modernized kitchen at a fraction of the cost of new cabinetry. The layout stays exactly the same. What changes is everything you see and touch: the doors, drawer fronts, veneer on box faces, and hardware. That's where the visual age of a kitchen lives, and that's exactly what refacing addresses.​

The quick timeline reflects the efficiency of a process that doesn't require demolition. You're not waiting on contractors to rough in walls or source replacement cabinetry. We come in, do the work, and you have a kitchen that looks fresh.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does cabinet refacing take for a typical Gatlinburg kitchen?

Most projects are completed in three to five days. Your kitchen stays usable during that time with no demolition phase taking the space offline. Timeline varies with scope, but three to five days is standard for a typical kitchen.

Does cabinet refacing work if I want to add cabinets or change the height of existing ones?

Yes. We can add cabinets or raise existing ones as part of a refacing project. If you want cabinets that go all the way to the ceiling or need to add a cabinet in an open spot, that work fits within the refacing scope.

Is cabinet refacing the same as cabinet painting or refinishing?

No. Refacing replaces your cabinet doors and drawer fronts with entirely new components and re-veneers box exteriors with new material. Painting and refinishing apply a surface coating without replacing components.

Do I need to leave the kitchen during a refacing project?

You don't need to vacate. We keep your kitchen accessible, which matters whether this is your primary residence or a seasonal home. The free consultation is the right place to work through scheduling considerations.
