OUR PROCESS

1

Consultation & Color Selection

We assess your cabinets, discuss finish options and color choices, and provide a detailed estimate based on the number of doors, drawers, and linear feet of cabinet boxes.

2

Hardware Removal & Labeling

We carefully remove all cabinet doors, drawer fronts, and hardware, labeling everything systematically so each piece returns to its exact location.

3

Cleaning & Degreasing

Every surface is thoroughly cleaned with professional degreaser to remove cooking oils, grease, and residue that would prevent proper coating adhesion.

4

Sanding & Priming

We sand all surfaces to create a mechanical bond, fill imperfections, and apply a high-adhesion bonding primer formulated for cabinet substrates.

5

Spray Application

Using HVLP spray equipment, we apply multiple coats of premium cabinet paint, lightly sanding between coats for an ultra-smooth factory finish.

6

Reinstallation & Final Touch

Once fully cured, we reinstall all doors, drawers, and hardware, adjust hinges, and perform a final inspection to ensure everything is perfect.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Common questions about our cabinet refinishing services

A typical kitchen cabinet refinishing project takes five to seven working days from start to finish. This includes removal, cleaning, sanding, priming, multiple coats of paint, and reinstallation. Larger kitchens or projects with specialty finishes may take slightly longer.

Your kitchen will have limited functionality during the project since doors and drawers will be removed. You will still have access to your appliances, sink, and cabinet boxes for essentials. We recommend planning simple meals or using an alternative cooking space for the duration of the project.

We can refinish most cabinet materials including solid wood, MDF, thermofoil (with proper preparation), and laminate surfaces. During our consultation, we assess your specific cabinet construction and recommend the best approach for your material.

When done properly, a professional cabinet refinishing job is extremely durable. The cabinet-grade paints we use are harder and more chemical-resistant than standard wall paint, designed to withstand daily cleaning, moisture, and kitchen use for many years.

Absolutely. Converting stained wood cabinets to a painted finish is one of our most popular services. The key is proper preparation, including thorough degreasing, sanding, and using a high-adhesion bonding primer that prevents the wood grain and tannins from bleeding through the paint.

Refinishing involves painting or staining your existing cabinet doors and boxes. Refacing involves replacing the doors and drawer fronts with new ones while covering the existing boxes with veneer. Refinishing is generally less expensive and works well when your cabinet doors are in good structural condition.

We remove and reinstall your existing hardware as part of our standard service. If you want to upgrade to new hardware, we can coordinate with you on purchasing and install the new pulls and knobs during reinstallation. New hardware combined with a fresh finish makes a dramatic impact.

Cabinet refinishing typically costs 50 to 75 percent less than full cabinet replacement. While exact pricing depends on kitchen size and finish selection, most homeowners save thousands of dollars by refinishing rather than replacing. We provide a detailed estimate during your free consultation.
