Prices are for a typical Halifax kitchen and include prep, primer and topcoat. Taxes are extra.

What Changes the Price

Number of doors and drawers: this is the biggest factor. A kitchen with 30 doors costs more than one with 18.

Condition of the cabinets: grease, water damage, peeling thermofoil or loose joints need extra work.

Wood type: open-grain oak needs more prep if you want a smooth, grain-free look.

Extras: islands, crown moulding, glass doors, bathroom vanities and new soft-close hinges.

Refinishing vs. Refacing vs. New Cabinets

Refinishing: keeps your doors and boxes and gives them a new sprayed finish. Lowest cost, done in 1 to 3 days.

Refacing: keeps your boxes and adds new doors and drawer fronts, such as HDF Shaker. A new look for less than new cabinets. Learn about refacing.

New cabinets: a full tear-out and installation usually costs many times more and leaves you without a kitchen for weeks.
