Cabinet Installation & Refacing FAQ for Detroit Homeowners

How often should Detroit homeowners get cabinet installation & refacing?
Given Detroit's lake-effect snow from lake st. clair and lake erie (avg 43 inches), most homeowners benefit from cabinet installation & refacing at least once a year. Ice dam prevention on low-slope roofs (Nov–March) often makes spring or fall the optimal time to schedule service.
What home types in Detroit most need cabinet installation & refacing?
Brick bungalows and colonials throughout Wayne County and Tudor and Colonial Revival in Grosse Pointe and Birmingham are the most common home types in Detroit 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.
