Georgetown Kitchen Remodel with Cabinet Refacing & New Backsplash
This Georgetown, Texas kitchen remodel transformed the existing kitchen without replacing the cabinet boxes or countertops. Instead, Austin Painting and Cabinets completed a kitchen cabinet refacing project featuring new shaker-style cabinet doors and drawer fronts, upgraded soft-close hardware, professional cabinet painting, and a new tile backsplash.
The project included new soft-close cabinet hinges and drawer slides, new cabinet hardware, and Arizona Tile Arte White Glossy 4" x 16" backsplash tile. By keeping the existing cabinetry structure and countertops, the remodel focused on the features that would change the kitchen's appearance and everyday functionality without requiring a complete cabinet replacement.
Before: Georgetown Kitchen with Existing Cabinets & Countertops
The homeowners chose to retain their existing cabinet boxes and countertops while updating the cabinet doors, drawer fronts, hardware, and backsplash.
This approach allowed the project to focus on changing the visible cabinet style and improving the way the doors and drawers operate.
After: Shaker Cabinet Refacing, Painting & New Tile Backsplash
The completed kitchen features new shaker-style cabinet doors and drawer fronts, professionally painted cabinetry, updated cabinet hardware, and a new Arizona Tile Arte White Glossy backsplash.
The existing countertops remained in place, demonstrating how cabinet refacing and targeted finish upgrades can create a substantial transformation without replacing every component of the kitchen.

Cabinet Refacing Instead of Complete Cabinet Replacement
One of the most important decisions in this Georgetown kitchen remodel was keeping the existing cabinet boxes and countertops.
Rather than removing and replacing the entire cabinet system, we installed new shaker cabinet doors and drawer fronts and painted the cabinetry to create a coordinated new finish.
Cabinet refacing is worth considering when homeowners are satisfied with their existing kitchen layout and the cabinet boxes are suitable for reuse. It can update the cabinet style while avoiding the scope of a complete cabinet replacement.

New Shaker Cabinet Doors & Drawer Fronts
The original cabinet doors and drawer faces were replaced with new shaker-style fronts.
Shaker cabinetry features a recessed center panel surrounded by a simple frame, making it a versatile style for both traditional and contemporary kitchens.
Replacing the visible fronts allows homeowners to change the cabinet door style rather than simply repainting the original doors.
Soft-Close Cabinet Hinges & Drawer Slides
The refacing project also included new soft-close hinges and drawer slides.
These hardware upgrades improve how the existing cabinetry operates. Soft-close hinges help prevent cabinet doors from slamming, while soft-close drawer slides provide a more controlled closing action.
Combining these functional improvements with new cabinet doors and drawer fronts creates a more complete cabinet update than painting alone.
Professional Kitchen Cabinet Painting
After incorporating the new shaker fronts, the cabinets were professionally painted to create a consistent finish across the updated cabinetry.
The project combined cabinet refacing with professional cabinet painting, allowing the new doors and drawer fronts to work visually with the existing cabinet boxes.
Arizona Tile Arte White Glossy 4" x 16" Backsplash
The kitchen backsplash was updated with Arizona Tile Arte White Glossy 4" x 16" tile.
The white glossy tile provides a fresh finish around the existing countertops and complements the newly refaced cabinetry.
Because the countertops remained in place, the backsplash upgrade was completed as part of a targeted kitchen renovation rather than a full countertop replacement.
Can You Reface Kitchen Cabinets Without Replacing Countertops?
Yes. This Georgetown kitchen is a real example of cabinet refacing completed while keeping the existing countertops.
Unlike a full cabinet replacement, refacing can preserve the existing cabinet boxes and countertop installation when their condition and configuration allow.
Homeowners can choose to update their cabinet doors, drawer fronts, hinges, slides, hardware, and painted finishes while retaining countertops they still like.
A new backsplash can also be incorporated, as it was in this project, without automatically requiring countertop replacement.
