Cabinet Installation & Refacing in Delaware County & the Main Line
Cabinets are furniture you use a hundred times a day — and whether they're brand new boxes or a refacing of what you have, the difference between average and excellent comes down to the installation. LM Legacy Remodeling installs and refaces cabinetry throughout Delaware County, the Main Line, and South Jersey: kitchens, bathrooms, laundry rooms, built-in bases, and islands. Owner-operated, with the same person handling your estimate, your layout decisions, and the work itself.
Cabinet refacing with new doors, crown molding & light rail — LM Legacy Remodeling
Cabinet Services We Offer
- New Cabinet Installation — Full kitchen and bath cabinet installs, set level and plumb, scribed to your actual walls and floors.
- Cabinet Refacing — New doors, drawer fronts, and matching veneer on the existing boxes. A new-looking kitchen without the demolition.
- Crown Molding & Light Rail on Cabinets — Crown at the cabinet tops and light rail below the uppers — the trim details that make stock cabinets look custom.
- Hardware & Soft-Close Upgrades — Knobs, pulls, and hinge upgrades, drilled on consistent layout lines.
- Filler Panels, End Panels & Toe Kicks — The finish pieces that close gaps and make an installation look built-in rather than dropped in.
- Islands & Built-In Bases — Kitchen islands, window-seat bases, and cabinet bases for custom built-ins.
Refacing vs. Replacing: Which Makes Sense?
If your cabinet boxes are square, solid, and laid out the way you want the kitchen to work, refacing gets you a new-looking kitchen for a fraction of the disruption: new doors and drawer fronts, fresh veneer on the frames, new hardware, and trim details like crown and light rail. If the boxes are failing, or the layout itself is the problem, replacement is the honest answer — and we'll tell you which one your kitchen actually needs when we look at it, not what's easiest to sell.
What Quality Cabinet Installation Looks Like
- Level and plumb boxes — Every run starts from a level line, shimmed correctly, so doors and counters land right.
- Even reveals and aligned doors — Door and drawer gaps consistent across the whole run, adjusted at the hinges, not eyeballed.
- Scribed fillers and panels — Walls aren't straight; good fillers are scribed to follow them so nothing shows a gap.
- Clean trim integration — Crown, light rail, and toe kicks fitted with the same standards as our room trim work.
- Solid anchoring — Uppers fastened into framing, not drywall. Always.
What Drives the Cost of Cabinet Work?
- Scope — A hardware-and-doors refresh, a full reface, and a complete installation are very different projects.
- Cabinet count and run length — More boxes and longer runs mean more setting, scribing, and aligning.
- Material and door style — Door construction and finish options drive material cost.
- Trim details — Crown, light rail, and end panels add finish carpentry time.
- Condition of walls and floors — Out-of-level floors and wavy walls take additional fitting to get right.
