Cabinet Refacing Done in Days in New Orleans, LA
If your kitchen layout works but the cabinets look outdated, cabinet refacing in New Orleans, Louisiana, gives you a modern kitchen without tearing up the room. You get new doors, fronts, hardware, and fresh veneer on the cabinet boxes, completed in days, not months.
K&P Remodeling has been refacing cabinets since 2012. With a team that brings over 75 years of combined hands-on experience and a presence in over 100 retail locations, including The Home Depot and Lowe's, you can count on us to transform your kitchen from top to bottom.
More Than Just a New Look
Cabinet refacing is a full surface transformation of your kitchen's most visible elements. We’ll strip the cabinet boxes down, re-veneer them to your chosen finish, and replace components that move or slide. Here's what that includes:
New Doors and Drawer Fronts
Soft-Close Hinges
Drawer Glides
Re-Veneered Cabinet Boxes
Cabinet Additions and Height Adjustments
Optional Countertop Replacement
As part of your cabinet refacing project, you can also replace your countertops. This way, you won’t have new-looking cabinetry with old, worn counters.
K&P Remodeling will work with you to make sure your new cabinet makeover matches your countertops. It might make more sense for us to replace the counters while we’re already there, and it won’t add much more time to the project.
A Kitchen Makeover Without the Disruption
A traditional kitchen renovation takes 3 to 5 months, putting your kitchen out of commission. Cabinet refacing typically wraps up in 3 to 5 days.
That timeline matters if you can't afford weeks without a functioning kitchen. Your kitchen stays usable throughout the process, so you're not eating out for months or disrupting your routine. The disruption is short, and the result is a kitchen that looks fully rebuilt.
The Refacing Process: Stripped Down and Rebuilt Right
Some cabinet refacing companies swap out doors and call it done. At K&P Remodeling, we’ll strip the cabinet boxes down to the skeleton and re-veneers the exteriors to your selected finish, while reinforcing the structure if needed. All moving components get upgraded, not just the visible surfaces. New soft-close hinges and drawer glides replace existing hardware with higher-quality materials than most full remodels install.
Here’s a closer look at what gets replaced versus what gets kept:
Replaced: Doors, drawer fronts, soft-close hinges, drawer glides, and veneer on box exteriors
Reinforced: Cabinet box frames remain structurally sound and receive a new surface treatment
Where Smart Design Meets Smart Spending
The kitchen remodeling market pushes the narrative that a real upgrade requires a full renovation. It doesn't. Homeowners who like their kitchen layout and just want it to look modern don't need to spend money on a remodel.
Cabinet refacing delivers the visual result of a midrange kitchen renovation at a fraction of the cost. You're not paying for demolition, new cabinet boxes, or extended labor. You're investing in the parts that determine how your kitchen looks: doors, fronts, hardware, and finishes.
The goal is to provide the most efficient solution for homeowners with functional kitchens who need a modern appearance. So, why wait? Check out the financing options that K&P Remodeling offers, so you can get the ball rolling today.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does cabinet refacing take in New Orleans?
Most cabinet refacing projects are completed in 3 to 5 days. Compare that to a traditional kitchen remodel running 3 to 5 months, and the difference is significant. Your kitchen stays accessible throughout, so daily life doesn't stop.
Does cabinet refacing work if I want to change my kitchen layout?
Refacing works best for kitchens where the layout already functions and you want a new look. We can add cabinets or raise existing ones. But if you want to move the sink, reconfigure the footprint, or relocate major elements, that's outside the scope of refacing.
What parts of the cabinets are actually replaced?
We replace doors, drawer fronts, soft-close hinges, and drawer glides, and re-veneer the cabinet box exteriors. The boxes themselves stay in place. Rather than replacing them with lower-grade particleboard, we keep the existing boxes and give them a fresh surface.
Is cabinet refacing a good option for older homes in New Orleans?
Often yes. Many homes in the area have kitchens with solid, functional layouts that are decades old, but cabinet exteriors show their age. Refacing works well when cabinet boxes are structurally sound and you're happy with the layout.
