Kitchen Cabinet Painting That Looks Brand-New

Most kitchens are done in about 3 to 5 working days from the day we start prepping to the day the doors go back on, depending on the size of the kitchen and the number of coats. We’ll give you a specific timeline at your in-home estimate.

We spray doors and drawer fronts in a controlled area for a smooth, factory-like finish, and hand-finish the frames and boxes in place so we’re not spraying overspray around your kitchen. That combination is what gets you a durable, brush-mark-free result without tearing your kitchen apart for weeks.

We use professional-grade cabinet paints built to handle daily kitchen use — grease, water, and the door-slamming that comes with a busy household. A properly prepped and painted cabinet holds up for years, not months. The prep work — cleaning, sanding, priming — matters more to durability than the paint itself, which is why we don’t skip it.

Mostly, yes. We work in phases and keep your kitchen usable as much as possible, though you’ll want an alternate plan for a few days while doors and drawers are off and drying. We’ll walk you through what to expect for your specific kitchen at the estimate.

The main factors are the number of doors and drawers, the condition of your current cabinets (oak grain and old finishes take more prep), the paint and hardware you choose, and whether you’re painting just the kitchen or adding a bathroom or island too. We give you an itemized written estimate after seeing the space in person — no guessing over the phone.

In almost every case, yes — cabinet painting runs a fraction of the cost of a full cabinet replacement, since you’re keeping the boxes and doors and changing the finish and hardware. If your cabinets are structurally sound, painting is usually the better value. We’ll tell you honestly if we think your cabinets are a better candidate for replacement instead.
