Love the idea of updating your kitchen cabinets, but hate the idea of a long, messy, expensive remodel? Or maybe you have pretty nice cabinets already, and tearing them out and replacing them with something new would be a waste.
In other words, you just want a new look, not a new kitchen.
That’s where cabinet painting really shines. But before we dig into how it works, ask yourself the three questions below to see if you’re on the right track.
Does your kitchen’s overall size and layout meet your needs?
Are your cabinets good quality, and in decent condition?
Are your cabinets worth investing in?
A lot of painting companies paint kitchen cabinets, especially since they’re so trendy right now. What you need to be aware of, however, is the fact that not many painting contractors know how to paint cabinets the right way. Painting is cheaper than a remodel, but it’s still an investment, and you want to be sure your finish looks incredible and lasts.
In fact, we’ve encountered scenarios where clients have had their cabinets painted poorly, and then want us to fix it. We’ll share a sample door for them to look at, and they say, “THAT’S what we wanted!”
Doing it right the first time is the best, most cost-effective way to go
We start with an in-person estimate. There’s just no good way to ballpark it when every kitchen is so unique. We take measurements, listen to your ideas and goals, collect the data we need, review the condition of your cabinets, factor in existing finishes, etc.
You’ll get a clear, comprehensive proposal. Don’t worry: we’ll outline every step and stage without any fuzzy details or hidden surprises.
One we’re officially underway, we’ll meticulously prepare and contain your kitchen. Cover floors, cover counters, mask surfaces, etc.
Cabinet doors and drawer faces are carefully removed and organized. It’s a labor-intensive process, but we do the prep right: cleaning, degreasing, sanding, repairs, priming, and topcoats. Every detail matters.
Once the painting is complete, we carefully reinstall the doors and drawer faces. We’ll also make any needed touch-ups before a final walk-through with you.
Here are some of the top questions we hear. If yours isn’t on the list, contact us! We’re here to help, and are totally transparent about our approach, pricing, and process.
It depends on a LOT of factors, ranging from the size of your kitchen to the painting technique itself. The average cost for a higher-end cabinet painting project is going to be somewhere in the $3500 – 6000 range. Interested in more details? Take a look at this article.
Most projects can be done within a week. We know how important it is to get the heart of your home back in action as quickly as possible.
We stain as well! Whatever look you’re going for, we have the team and experience needed to make it happen.
It depends on the finish type and style you prefer. In most cases, however, we use a sprayer to achieve that smooth, factory-grade finish.
We provide light carpentry and surface repairs, but are not a cabinet repair shop. Painting is a substantial investment, best suited for cabinets that are already in good condition overall.
This is a very common concern. Honestly, it all comes down to how well your cabinets were painted. Do-it-yourself projects, or work completed by inexperienced painters, will never be as durable as professionally painted cabinets. The right approach and products are essential. But if it’s done the right way, durability shouldn’t be an issue!
