3 Signs Its Time To Replace Your Old Kitchen Cabinets

If you’re a homeowner whose kitchen has been the center of the house for years, then you know the value of that well-loved space in your home. We spend a great deal of our time in the kitchen cooking with the kids and grandkids, talking with our spouses and kids, cleaning, and talking about world problems.

There are always going to be memories attached to this space. But like all parts of your home, it also needs tender loving and care to remain in top shape. Kitchen cabinets can get old, the kitchen island can fade, and wiring and plumbing need to be updated. The list goes on. If you’re looking to remodel your entire kitchen, here are some signs that you will also need to replace your old cabinets with new ones.

Water Damage

Check if your cabinets are swollen. If they aren’t closing properly and have dark splotches, you might be dealing with water damage. Because most kitchen cabinets are made from wood, water damage is a common occurrence. Water damage can occur due to various internal plumbing issues, leaky roofs, or chimneys.

Water-damaged cabinets can be fixed if there’s minor damage. But if cabinets show signs of mold, dark spots on the wood, delaminated surface, bubbling on the surface, and warped appearance, then cabinet replacement should be your priority after dealing with leakages.

Soft Cabinets

Soft is not the word we usually associate with cabinets because wood structures are typically strong and robust. But if you find the surface of your cabinet soft, then your cabinets might need to be replaced. Wooden cabinets can feel soft to the touch due to water damage, mold build-up, or termite infestation in the worst-case scenario.

Frustrating Functioning

After years of opening and closing cabinet doors that slam into each other every time and putting up a stool to reach inside the depths of the unknown of the top right shelf, you have finally decided to rearrange the cabinets. It can be frustrating to work in a kitchen that you cannot mold to your preferences and usage. And this is a blaring sign that you need to replace your old cabinets.

Often, the kitchen comes fully modeled and equipped when you mortgage the house, but repairs are a requirement every few years. You can hire a professional for kitchen remodeling services and cabinet replacements according to your needs.
