Update and retain
According to Naked Kitchens, the average kitchen cabinetry usually lasts between 15 to 20 years (and some high-end pieces can even last up to 50 years) before needing to be replaced. However, many homeowners replace them while they are still fully functioning as they want to create a different look. If your kitchen cabinets are structurally sound, then there is no real need to replace them. Instead, just replace your cabinet doors, it is a great way to breathe new life into the space without the cost or inconvenience of replacing your whole kitchen.
