        "text": "You should choose refacing if your cabinet boxes are structurally solid and you are happy with your current kitchen layout. Replacing cabinets is the better option if your layout functions poorly, you need more usable storage, or the existing frames suffer from moisture or structural damage. Complete replacement also makes sense when you plan to update plumbing, run new electrical circuits, or replace drywall behind the cabinets during a larger remodel. While refacing changes door fronts and veneers, new installation allows full reconfiguration, such as adding deep drawers, pantry towers, or integrated appliance panels.",
