A sound foundation
Refacing is best suited to cabinetry that is structurally sound, accurately installed and worth retaining. Water damage, movement or poor construction may require a different approach.

Joinery refacing in Noosa
Refresh suitable existing kitchens and built-ins with new doors, drawer fronts, panels and hardware while retaining the sound cabinet structure.
Approach
Refacing can give well-made existing joinery a considered new life without removing every cabinet. Where the internal carcasses remain sound, new visible surfaces can transform the colour, texture and character of a kitchen, wardrobe or built-in while preserving much of the original structure.
The first step is an on-site assessment. Existing cabinets, hinges, drawer systems, panels and clearances are checked before the appropriate scope is recommended. New fronts and finishing panels are then measured to suit the actual joinery, with hardware and junctions resolved as part of the update.
More than new doors
End panels, kickboards, infills, handles and visible cabinet edges are considered together so the renewed joinery reads as one complete scheme.
Hardware compatibility
Existing hinges and drawer runners are assessed for condition and compatibility, with replacements or adjustments included where appropriate.

Common questions
Can every kitchen be refaced?
No. The existing cabinets need to be sound, reasonably square and suitable for new fronts and hardware. An on-site assessment confirms whether refacing is worthwhile.
Can the layout change during refacing?
Minor changes may be possible, but refacing is intended to retain the main cabinet structure. Larger layout or appliance changes may be better treated as new joinery or a combined scope.
Can handles and hinges be replaced at the same time?
Yes. Hardware can be reviewed as part of the project, including new handles, compatible hinges and adjustments to existing drawer systems.
