You truly love your granite kitchen counter tops. Even though they have been installed for a few years now they still look as good as they did the day they were installed. Too bad you cannot say the same thing about your kitchen cabinets. They are, quite frankly, ruining the look of the whole kitchen because they are so old and outdated. You wish you could replace them but the thought of giving up your beautiful granite counter tops to do so is not one you want to entertain at all.
You can have your cake and eat it too though as it were as long as you find a good kitchen remodeler, one who knows his kitchen cabinets and kitchen counter tops. Such a skilled person will be able to install the great new cabinets you want without harming the granite counter tops you love so much.
In order for such a project to be a success though their are certain steps that must be followed. The first is that the new kitchen cabinets you choose will have to follow the same "footprint" as the old ones when installed. This may limit your new kitchen cabinet choices a little but to keep their granite counter tops this is a trade off most home owners are happy yo make.
Possibly the most important key to the success of a project like this is working with the right kitchen installer. Some kitchen remodelers will not even consider doing a job like this because it is simply too much of a hassle. You need to find someone who is willing to put in the extra care and effort to get the job done right.
The greatest challenge when new cabinets are being installed while the granite counter top is to be reused is the safe removal of the granite counter top from the old kitchen cabinets. Granite is very strong stuff but it will still crack and chip if a slab of it is dropped. The installation can be tricky as well, but for a good kitchen remodel it is not too much of a challenge
