First, make sure that you don’t need to replace your cabinets, that the hardware like the hinges and drawer slides are still in good shape, that they are in good overall condition and that you’re still happy with the look.

You also want to ensure that the new countertops will match your existing cabinets and that the countertops are not too heavy for your cabinets.
