A Face-Lift

Did you know that kitchen cabinets are the first thing people notice when they enter a kitchen? So if they are dull, outdated, worn, or darker than you'd prefer.. you may want to consider reviving your kitchen cabinets with a professional paint job. For cabinets that are in fairly good condition, there really is no need to replace them. Instead have the experts bring your kitchen cabinets back to life through paint.

Economical

Having a professional remove, clean, sand, and paint your cabinets is more cost effective than a complete replacement of the cabinets. The average cost of refinishing cabinets by painting them using our process is about a third of the cost of replacing them.

Timely and Convenient

Not only is the cost a factor when deciding whether to replace or refinish your cabinets, time and convenience should be considered as well. For most contractors, gutting and replacing cabinets will take several months, and that will mean losing your kitchen during that time. But in a fraction of that time, usually in 2-3 weeks, your kitchen can look brand new with a color that you have chosen.

Kitchens Sell Homes, But...
Outdated Kitchens Don't

Painting your kitchen cabinets can improve your home's value and consequently end up a great return on your investment, not to mention it will help your home sell faster if it's been on the market for a while. Conversely, old, dingy, dirty and dark cabinets will cause your home to sit on the market for longer.

Potential buyers will factor in that they need to remodel the kitchen, and most buyers these days know that can cost a fortune. They don't have the budget for that, so they will try to find it by knocking down your selling price.

When you paint your kitchen cabinets, you make the space look nice, maintained, and inviting to the prospect.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between a sprayed finish and a brushed & rolled finish?

There are three main differences between them. They are:
1. A sprayed finish will have a factory smooth appearance because it was atomized, where as a brushed & rolled finish will have a finish resembling an orange peel texture.
2. You can use higher performance 2-component catalyzed paints that require atomization if spraying, this results in a far more durable coating.
3. The amount of surface preparation and masking is considerably laess when brushing & rolling, hence the big difference in investment.

What paint products do you use to paint kitchen cabinets?

Depending on the method of application we either use Renner Italia 2K Polyurethane or Benjamin Moore Advance.

Why am I getting wildly different quotes for spraying kitchen cabinets?

Spraying kitchen cabinets is the most technically difficult task a residential painter can complete. For this reason it should be done by a master craftsman with many years of experience in this discipline alone. Master craftsmen are not cheap and don't skip steps to finish the project quicker. They take their time to make sure every inch of your kitchen cabinets is finished properly. They use only the best products available on your project as an insurance policy, since there are so many things that can go wrong in painting, even when everything is done correctly. So if you're wondering why your quotes differ so much, it's because of the quality of workmanship you're getting. As the saying goes, you get what you pay for.

How should you prepare you kitchen for painting?

Please remove all items from inside and outside the kitchen cabinets and place them in a room outside of the workplace.

What colors can I pick from?

You can pick any color you want from any manufacturer. We will match your color in the product we use and mail you a sample to approve prior to starting your project.
