Favored for their additional storage and their ability to add visual appeal to a room, cabinets offer homeowners a number of different benefits. But when is it time to say ‘goodbye’ to your older cabinets and welcome something new?

Here are five signs you need new cabinets:

  1. You’ve Found Water Damage: Dark spots and musty smells coming from your cabinetry can be signs of water damage. Whether it’s due to uncleaned spills or leaking pipes below your kitchen sink, water damage can threaten the durability of your cabinets, and should be replaced as soon as possible.
  2. They Are Falling Apart: Do you cringe each time you walk in the room and notice the peeling or chipped paint on your cabinets? Do you struggle with cabinets falling off the hinges or missing handles? Cabinets are made to make your life easier, not more difficult. Invest in new cabinetry and notice the difference it can make in your daily life.
  3. They Are Outdated: Cabinet designs have come a long way in the last several years, which might make them look outdated compared to your friends’ cabinets or even your other newer appliances. If you’re interested in an update, but are not sure what your options are, talk with a cabinetry specialist to learn more about today’s most popular cabinet designs.
  4. There’s Not Enough Storage: If you’re noticing a great deal of cans, paper towels and other things crowding your countertops, it’s time to upgrade your cabinet space. Research the best cabinet designs for your storage needs and do not be afraid to contact an expert to learn more.
  5. You’re Remodeling: A remodel is the perfect time to consider updating your cabinets, especially if you are planning to change the layout of your room. Use this time to take advantage of the different colors, styles and textures available and find the perfect fit to complement your new space.
