How much does cabinet refacing cost per linear foot cost?

Asked May 22, 2026 by a contractor in Kitchen Remodeling (Handyman Mod)

Cabinet refacing costs per linear foot can vary based on a variety of factors, including the material you choose, the size and layout of your kitchen, and your location. On average, homeowners can expect to pay around $100–$250 per linear foot for cabinet refacing. This price typically includes new cabinet doors, drawer fronts, and hardware, as well as the labor for installation.

Keep in mind that additional costs may apply for upgrades such as soft-close hinges, pull-out shelves, or custom finishes. It's also important to consider hiring a licensed professional for cabinet refacing, especially if the project involves electrical work, plumbing, or structural modifications. A professional can provide expert guidance on materials, design options, and ensure that the work is done safely and up to code.

To get a more accurate estimate for your cabinet refacing project, I recommend reaching out to local contractors or kitchen remodeling specialists for quotes. They can assess your specific needs, measure your cabinets, and provide a detailed cost breakdown for the project. This will give you a better idea of the total investment required and help you make an informed decision about moving forward with cabinet refacing.
