I am thinking of re-doing my cabinets. What is the cost of replacing cabinets versus putting a painted finish on them?
To replace your cabinets you are looking at, at least $10,000, but usually much higher. For refinishing the cabinets with paint, the cabinets usually have to be sanded and repainted first. This usually costs between $800 and $1,500. Then depending on the finish chosen, anywhere from $100 per door, or door space, plus $35 per drawer, (with up-charges for items like wine racks, and cabinet interiors). This usually translates to approximately $3,000 – $6,000. Q: Do I have to remove the wall paper before putting a textured finish on the wall? A: Not necessarily. Quite often we are able to add texture right over the wall paper, with either minimal or no prep — which skips the step of removing the wall paper and adds to your savings! Q: When I removed my wallpaper, the walls became disfigured. Is there anything I can do besides hiring someone to re-skim-coat the entire room? A: Yes, we can actually texture right over the problems and transform the “mess” into something beautiful, right befo
