The Process of Removing and Installing Kitchen Cabinets in New Braunfels TX

by | Aug 27, 2019 | Kitchen Renovation

New Kitchen Cabinets in New Braunfels TX often are part of a remodeling project to change the aesthetics of the room and, perhaps, improve functionality. Remodeling contractors can either reface the existing cabinets to give them a new look, or they can remove the old cabinets and replace them with new ones.

Cabinet Removal

Removing old cupboards can be a labor-intensive project, but when homeowners are dissatisfied with the quality or storage capabilities, this must be done. The original models in this home may be noticeably cheap products, which is often the case with older manufactured and modular homes. In other situations, the remodeling customers are particularly dissatisfied with the upper cabinetry. Some homeowners want a space between the top and the ceiling where they can place decorative items. Others don’t like that space because to them, it’s just an area that requires dusting.

The cabinetry may be screwed in or it may be glued. Removing glued cupboards requires significantly more work. Either way, this project is normally completed by at least two workers. One must hold the cabinets so they don’t fall after they have come completely loose from the wall.

The Replacement Process

After removing the old cabinetry, remodeling contractors start replacement with corner cupboards and then continue along the walls. Cabinets under the sink and above the space for the refrigerator and dishwasher come next. If the home has a built-in oven and range, Kitchen Cabinets in New Braunfels TX are installed under and over those features too. Otherwise, cupboards are placed above a freestanding oven and range combination appliance.

The last step usually is to install the cupboards below the snack bar, and any above this countertop area if the homeowner wants some there. Drawers can be replaced or refaced, depending on what the customer prefers.

This work is extremely detail-oriented and requires a great deal of labor. That’s why most homeowners hire a contractor like Shaw Company Remodeling to complete the job instead of tackling it as a do-it-yourself project. They want to be sure everything is done correctly and they won’t spend years feeling annoyed about errors.
