Replacing Old Kitchen Doors at a Fraction of the Cost of Refits

The cost of replacing kitchen cupboard doors via a refit can easily run into thousands of pounds.

At a time where so many are looking at ways to save money, there may still be a real need to repair and refurbish your kitchen for any number of practical reasons.

The downsides of kitchen refits

If you're considering a full kitchen refit, there’s a lot of time and inconvenience to factor in. Your existing units will have to be ripped out, the room re-measured and the new units built in.

While all that’s going on, your kitchen will be reduced to its most basic functions – if you’re allowed in there at all!

In addition to labour costs of and paying for materials, it might be tricky to store all your fine cutlery, plates and utensils, plan and cook meals and do the laundry.

Kitchen refurbishments

However, there is a cheaper alternative and a solution that will cut both time and money, and get you back into your kitchen in days, not weeks - and that's a kitchen refurbishment!

A kitchen refurbishment is the ideal cost effective solution for anyone who needs a kitchen makeover but can't justify the expense of splashing out on an entirely new kitchen.

By working with existing kitchen units and really making the most of what you've got already, you'd be surprised at the difference it makes.

Cutting the cost in time and money

The chances are that the culprits responsible for making your kitchen look less than its best are the cupboard doors. These take up the greatest surface area in your kitchen and are the items that bear the brunt of daily life in your culinary headquarters.

Old cabinets tend to stain, dent and build up scratches However, rather than opting for a refit, why not simply replace the old ones with new ones?

Replacement kitchen unit doors can give a whole new lease of life to your kitchen. As kitchen cupboards make up the majority of space in the kitchen, well-chosen cupboard doors can transform the most tired and tatty of kitchens into something all-together more upbeat and stylish 'brand new kitchen' look.

By making the decision to restore rather than refit, you've significantly cut the financial cost and time.

Why use a kitchen refurbishment company?

Some people make the mistake of going to DIY stores and looking for new kitchen cabinet doors. The problem with this is that even if you're buying doors designed for your kitchen units, you may find that they don't fit.

The reason is that over time, the shape of the units can often change. Changes of temperature, water absorption and even the odd knock can all alter the dimensions of a unit to the point where they won't truly accommodate a new door.

A far better option is to go to a kitchen refurbishment company such as The Kitchen Restoration Company, who will make new made to measure doors that will fit even the most awkward cupboard space.

In addition, rather than simply upgrading to a cleaner version of your old doors, you can take the opportunity to completely change the colour scheme and even the style of your kitchen!

Where manufacturers deal in a limited range of styles, refurbishment companies have a much wider selection available.

Whether you enjoy the contemporary feel of stainless steel, the rustic charm of natural wood, or bold, make-a-statement colours: a refurbishment company is sure to have something to suit both your home and your personal taste.
