Last Updated on October 11, 2016 By admin

Wanting a new kitchen but just don’t have the money? Did you know that you stand to save thousands of pounds by just giving your kitchen cupboards a facelift?

Instead of funding an entirely new kitchen, why not spend a fraction of the cost and replace kitchen cupboard doors and worktops instead. The results can be astonishing and you will give your kitchen an entirely different look.

For the majority of people, their kitchens have served them well for years and they now just need a different look. Over 70% of all kitchens replaced in the UK every year are still functional.

The main reason most homeowners replace their kitchen is simply a change of taste and seeking a change. You could achieve the same fresh looking kitchen with less hassle and less cost too. The advantages of replacing kitchen cupboard doors include:

  • Costs less compared to entire kitchen installation saving you money if you are on a budget.
  • Causes less upheaval and work can be completed in lesser time so you can get to enjoy your new kitchen sooner.
  • Good for the environment because by keeping your existing cupboards and worktops you prevent the waste from going to landfill.
  • Easier than a full kitchen replacement and may be possible to do DIY, especially the cupboard doors.
  • Quicker to install, new doors can be fitted in a matter of hours.

We assume a large kitchen to measure around 20 square metres in size with 12 double units. The job is to remove existing doors and replace with new. The cost for changing kitchen doors should be between £180 and £350 with the job expected to take a day or two.
