Cabinet Repainting Process
Our step-by-step approach to delivering a smooth, durable painted finish on your cabinets.
How it works
Repainting cabinets is more involved than painting walls. Without the right preparation and materials, paint can peel, chip, or look uneven within months. Our repainting process is designed to deliver a smooth, factory-like finish that holds up to years of daily use.
The Cabinet Repainting Process
Consultation and Color Selection
We start with a free in-home consultation where we assess your cabinets and help you choose the right paint color and finish for your space. We bring color samples and discuss the look you are going for so there are no surprises on the final day.
Cleaning and Degreasing
Kitchen cabinets accumulate grease, oil, and grime over years of use. We thoroughly clean and degrease every surface before doing anything else. Skipping this step is the number one reason painted cabinets fail prematurely, so we never cut corners here.
Sanding and Priming
We lightly sand all surfaces to give the primer something to bond to, then apply a commercial-grade primer formulated specifically for cabinetry. This step is critical for adhesion and ensures the topcoat goes on smoothly and evenly.
Topcoat Application and Reinstallation
We apply multiple coats of professional-grade cabinet paint, allowing each coat to cure fully before applying the next. Once the final coat is dry, all doors, drawer fronts, and hardware are reinstalled and the project is inspected from top to bottom.
Why our process delivers better results
Professional Materials
We use commercial-grade primers and topcoats engineered specifically for cabinetry, not standard wall paint or hardware store products.
Attention to Detail
Every surface is prepped, primed, and finished with care. We never rush a step because proper preparation is what makes a finish last.
