How to Choose the Right Cabinet Refacing Installer for Your Home

When it comes to giving your kitchen a bold new look without a full renovation, cabinet refacing is one of the smartest, most cost-effective upgrades you can make. But the beauty and longevity of that transformation hinge on one crucial decision: choosing the right installer.

At nuDoors, we specialize in premium cabinet door and drawer front systems, and we've built a nationwide network of Certified Installers who bring our designs to life with precision and care.

Here’s what to look for in a qualified installer, and why choosing a nuDoors Certified Installer gives you an edge.

Why Certification Matters

Cabinet refacing isn’t just about swapping doors, it’s about precision measurements, clean prep, flawless reveals, and long-term durability. That’s why we certify professionals who are:

• Trained in our products and install techniques

• Up to date on edge-banding, overlay standards, and hinge adjustments

• Committed to clean installs and customer satisfaction

When you hire a nuDoors Certified Installer, you’re not rolling the dice, you’re working with someone who knows the system inside and out.

5 Things to Look for in a Cabinet Refacing Installer

1. Experience with Refacing, Not Just Remodeling

General contractors may know construction, but refacing demands millimeter-level detail and finesse. Ask how many refacing projects they’ve done specifically, not just how long they've been “in the business.”

2. Product Knowledge

Do they understand overlay types, edge options, and how to create a consistent finish across different cabinet bases? A true pro will help guide you through nuDoors’ finish options and understand what works best for your space.

3. Attention to Detail

The magic of a successful refacing job is often in the small details, even spacing between doors, no crooked handles, tight corner fits. Our certified installers are trained to check every corner before calling a job complete.

4. Clean Work Habits

Cabinet work happens in the heart of your home, and it shouldn’t feel like a construction zone. Look for pros who prioritize cleanliness, dust control, and minimal disruption.

5. Backed by a Trusted Brand

When you hire a nuDoors Certified Installer, your doors are backed by a 5-year factory warranty, and your installer is backed by a real company that trains and supports them.
