What's included

Cabinet painting is detail work: doors and drawers are removed, labeled, cleaned, and lightly sanded or de-glossed, then sprayed off-site or in a controlled area rather than brushed in place. That's what gets the smooth, factory-like finish instead of visible brush strokes.

  • Doors, drawer fronts, and boxes cleaned and de-glossed
  • Sprayed application for a smooth, even finish
  • New hardware installation available
  • Any standard or custom color
  • Kitchen, bathroom, and built-in cabinetry

Typical timeline

Most kitchens take three to five days from start to finish, including dry time between coats. Your kitchen is out of full use for part of that window, which we'll walk through with you before the job starts.

Chicago & North Shore homes

Cabinet painting is one of the highest-return updates for older Chicago-area kitchens with solid wood cabinets that don't need replacing, just a different finish. It's also a common companion project to a kitchen remodel.

Common questions

Is cabinet painting cheaper than replacing cabinets?

Yes, in most cases it's a fraction of the cost of full replacement, since the existing boxes and doors stay in place.

Will it look brushed or streaky?

No — we spray doors and drawers for a smooth, factory-style finish rather than brushing them in place.

Can you change the cabinet color completely?

Yes, including going from a stained wood finish to a painted color.
