Cabinet Refacing in Surrey
Serving Surrey with professional kitchen, bathroom, and whole-house renovations — from Fleetwood to South Surrey.
About Cabinet Refacing in Surrey
Cabinet refacing — also called cabinet resurfacing — gives your kitchen a completely new look without the cost or disruption of a full renovation. By replacing only the doors, drawer fronts, and hardware while keeping the existing cabinet boxes, you get a dramatic transformation in just 5–7 days at 40–60% less than full cabinet replacement.
This is one of our most popular services for homeowners who have solid, well-built cabinet boxes but dated styles — dark oak from the 1990s, honey maple from the 2000s, or thermofoil doors that are peeling. If your cabinet boxes are structurally sound (no water damage, no sagging shelves), refacing is an excellent value.
**What cabinet refacing includes:** - Removal of existing doors, drawer fronts, and hardware - Veneer application to visible cabinet box surfaces (matching your new door style) - New doors in your chosen style: shaker, slab, raised panel, or transitional - New drawer fronts to match - New hardware: handles, knobs, hinges (soft-close upgrade included) - New crown moulding and light rail (optional) - Touch-up painting or finishing on cabinet interiors - Under-cabinet LED lighting installation (optional add-on)
**Door material options:** - Spray-painted MDF: most popular, smooth finish, any colour, from $150/door - Thermofoil: budget-friendly, wipe-clean surface, limited styles - Solid wood: premium option, natural grain, traditional feel - Acrylic/high-gloss: ultra-modern, reflective surface
**Real project pricing from our portfolio:** - Standard refacing (10–15 doors, new hardware): $8,000–$12,000 - Mid-range (doors + drawer fronts + crown moulding + LED): $12,000–$18,000 - Premium (solid wood doors + quartz countertop add-on): $18,000–$25,000
We serve all of Metro Vancouver for cabinet refacing — from Vancouver condos to Langley homes to Port Moody townhouses. The typical project takes just 5–7 working days, and you can use your kitchen throughout most of the process (only 1–2 days of limited access during veneer application).
Cabinet refacing pairs perfectly with countertop replacement. Many clients combine a door/drawer refacing with new quartz countertops for a complete kitchen transformation under $20,000. We can coordinate both services for a seamless result.
Every cabinet refacing project includes a 3-year workmanship warranty on doors, hardware, and installation.
Cabinet Refacing Services in Surrey
Reno Stars serves all of Surrey — from the established neighbourhoods of Whalley, Guildford, and Newton to the fast-growing communities of Cloverdale, South Surrey, and Fleetwood. As Metro Vancouver's largest municipality by population, Surrey has an enormous variety of housing stock: 1970s split-levels, 1990s two-storey colonials, 2000s townhouse complexes, and brand-new detached homes in developments like Sullivan and Grandview Heights.
Kitchen renovations are our top service in Surrey. Many Surrey homes built between 1990 and 2010 are now reaching the point where their original kitchens need updating — dated oak cabinets, tile countertops, and fluorescent lighting get replaced with modern shaker cabinetry, quartz countertops, and recessed LED lighting. Our real Surrey kitchen projects range from $25,000 (standard refresh with new cabinets and countertops) to $38,000 (full custom with island, premium appliances, and custom tile backsplash). We bring material samples to your home for comparison.
Basement suite conversions are hugely popular in Surrey, and for good reason — the city has some of the most permissive secondary suite bylaws in Metro Vancouver. A legal basement suite in Surrey can generate $1,500–$2,200/month in rental income, and the City of Surrey has streamlined the permit process to encourage this housing form. We handle everything: layout design that maximizes livable space, framing, plumbing and electrical rough-in, HVAC separation, insulation, drywall, flooring, and finishing. Typical costs range from $40,000 to $70,000 depending on size and existing conditions.
Bathroom renovations in Surrey range from basic tub-to-shower conversions ($12,000–$18,000) to full multi-bathroom renovations ($28,000–$35,000). We've completed projects across Surrey's diverse housing types, including the older homes in Bear Creek and Green Timbers, the townhouses of Morgan Creek and Rosemary Heights, and the newer builds in Campbell Heights.
For South Surrey and White Rock homeowners, we provide the same quality workmanship with an understanding of the area's specific character — from the ranchers and craftsman homes near Crescent Beach to the luxury estate properties of Elgin and Sunnyside. We also serve commercial clients in Surrey's growing business districts, including renovations for retail, restaurant, and office spaces.
All Surrey projects include a 3-year workmanship warranty, transparent written quotes, and free on-site estimates. We're fully licensed and insured to work throughout the City of Surrey.
