Has anyone had kitchen cabinets refaced by a contractor? What was the cost? Have you refaced a kitchen for someone else? What did you charge for labor?
I have done some refacing for family a few times, I am just not sure what to charge a non-family member. For the face frames I resaw the material and surface to 1/8" All new doors, flat panel. New drawers and drawer fronts. I have a pretty good idea of what to charge for the project without a finish and without installing. So those are the two items that I am most curious about.
My wife and I are weekend woodworkers, so it is difficult to estimate the number of hours the work will take.
I want to make it worth our while, make it a good deal for the client. We don't make a living doing this, but I don't want to sell us short.
Any help or suggestions will be appreciated.
Thanks
John
