Our house is 30+ years old and the kitchen cabinets are showing a good deal of wear so we've been contemplating reworking the kitchen a bit. Our cabinets were built on-site as opposed to drop in modules and looking at the construction, it looks like they are made of plywood with about 1/4" (maybe a little less) veneer glued on all of the faces. What I'm wondering is if there is some say of getting the veneer off to be replaced? If I could replace the veneer and make new doors, I could freshen things up a good deal without having to do a complete tearout and re-build (which I'm not even sure is within my capabilities and I hate to mess with the the contertop which had fresh formica put on 7 years ago).
