What we do

We prepare, prime, and finish kitchen and bathroom cabinets to provide long-lasting results that stand up to daily use. Our work includes doors, drawer fronts, frames, and visible trims. Each project begins with an inspection and a clear written estimate that lists labor, materials, and schedule.

When cabinet painting makes sense

Choose painting when cabinets are structurally sound but cosmetically worn, when you want to change color or sheen, or when replacement cost and waste are a concern. Painting preserves existing cabinet boxes and reduces project time compared with full replacement.

Our process — clear steps, quality work

We follow a disciplined procedure to ensure even coverage, proper adhesion, and durable results:

  1. On-site evaluation: Measure, photograph, and note any repairs or glazing required.
  2. Removal and labeling: Doors and drawers are removed, labeled, and stored to prevent loss or mix-up.
  3. Repair and cleaning: Minor repairs, hinge adjustments, and a degreasing wash are completed before sanding.
  4. Sanding and profile work: Surfaces are sanded to promote adhesion while preserving profiles and edges.
  5. Priming: High-adhesion primer is applied to bare wood or repaired areas to block stains and ensure consistent finish color.
  6. Finishing coats: Two to three thin coats of finish material produce a factory-like result with minimal brush marks.
  7. Reassembly and inspection: Hardware is reinstalled, doors are adjusted, and a final inspection confirms alignment and finish quality.

Materials and finishes

We use industry-grade primers and paints suited for cabinets. Options include acrylic-latex and waterborne alkyd finishes that provide good durability and cleanability. Sheen levels are selected with the client — from low-sheen satin to semi-gloss — depending on the desired look and maintenance considerations.

Timeline and logistics

Typical cabinet painting projects vary by size. A small kitchen can take as little as three to five business days from pickup to final reassembly; larger kitchens and more extensive repairs may take one to two weeks. We provide a schedule with arrival and completion dates so you know when to expect each phase.

Pricing factors

Costs depend on the number of doors and drawers, the condition of the cabinets, and the finish selection. We provide itemized estimates so you can compare options. Common variables include:

Project examples and maintenance

After painting, minor touch-ups are straightforward. For best results, clean with a mild soap solution and avoid abrasive pads. Typical scuffs can be addressed with light sanding and a touch-up coat when needed. We document each project's finish and provide care instructions.

Frequently asked questions

Can you match an existing color?
Yes. We can produce a sample board or match a swatch. Color-matching is performed with a controlled sample to ensure the final result is what you expect.
Will painting hide dents or gouges?
Small dents can be filled and sanded; large structural damage may be more cost-effective to replace. We will itemize recommended repairs in the estimate.
Is this a DIY project?
DIY is possible but requires careful surface prep, proper ventilation, and time for each coat to cure. Hiring a professional reduces the risk of adhesion issues, runs, and uneven sheen.
