Cabinet Installation & Refacing FAQ for Boston Homeowners

How often should Boston homeowners get cabinet installation & refacing?
Given Boston's severe winters with average 48 inches of snow, most homeowners benefit from cabinet installation & refacing at least once a year. Ice dam prevention and removal (Dec–Mar) often makes spring or fall the optimal time to schedule service.
What home types in Boston most need cabinet installation & refacing?
Victorian triple-deckers and Colonial and Cape Cod-style homes are the most common home types in Boston and typically see the most wear. Our local pros are familiar with the exterior materials found across the metro.
What's the difference between stock, semi-custom, and custom cabinets?
Stock: pre-built in standard sizes, lowest cost, available immediately. Semi-custom: more sizes and options, 4–8 week lead time. Custom: built to exact specifications for unusual spaces or high-end projects, 8–16 week lead time and highest cost.
What is cabinet refacing?
Refacing replaces cabinet doors, drawer fronts, and applies new veneer to cabinet box exteriors — keeping the existing boxes in place. It costs 40–60% less than full replacement and takes 3–5 days vs. 2–3 weeks.
How long does cabinet installation take?
A full kitchen cabinet replacement takes 2–3 days for a typical kitchen. Countertop installation follows after cabinets are set, adding another 1–2 days once countertops are fabricated.
Can I install cabinets myself?
Skilled DIYers can handle stock cabinet installation. However, ensuring cabinets are level, plumb, and square — especially around irregular floors and walls — is challenging. Mistakes are expensive to fix once countertops are in.
