How is NU-FACE different from traditional cabinet refacing?
Traditionally, cabinet re-facing has been sort of a “lower end” option where the homeowner simply could not afford new cabinets and, because of financial considerations or the desire to keep the countertop, simply had no other option. Most often cheap, particle board doors were used and often the finishes were not stains or paints, but plastic “thermofoil”. Veneers were paper thin and had poor adhesives that would eventually peel off or damage easily. Usually, the re-facing company would not even replace the old bent and damaged drawer slides or cabinet hinges.
