Guide to Cabinet Refacing with WHFinishing
The kitchen is often considered the heart of the home, a space where culinary creativity flows, family gatherings occur, and cherished memories are made. Within this essential space, cabinets play a vital role, shaping the room’s functionality and adding to its aesthetic charm. However, kitchen renovations, especially replacing cabinets, can be both time-consuming and costly. At WHFinishing, we offer a solution that combines style, efficiency, and affordable cabinet refacing.

- Quick Transformation: With cabinet refacing, you can enjoy a beautiful, refreshed kitchen in days rather than weeks.
- Sustainable Choice: Refacing reduces waste by preserving existing cabinet structures, making it an eco-friendly choice.

Understanding Cabinet Refacing vs. Cabinet Refinishing
Homeowners often wonder whether cabinet refinishing or cabinet refacing is the best choice for their kitchen upgrade. Here’s a quick breakdown of each:
- Cabinet Refinishing involves sanding and re-staining or painting existing cabinet doors. This is ideal if you want to refresh the current look without major design changes.

Both options are available at WH Finishing, and we’ll work with you to determine which best meets your needs and aesthetic preferences.
