What's the difference between cabinet refacing and cabinet painting?+
Refacing replaces the cabinet doors and drawer fronts with new ones while keeping the existing boxes, and typically includes new hardware. Painting keeps the existing doors and refinishes them in place. Refacing gives a more dramatic transformation; painting is less expensive and faster.
How much does cabinet painting cost?+
A standard kitchen (15–20 cabinet doors and drawers) typically runs $3,500–$6,000 for a professional spray-finish paint job, depending on cabinet count and condition. The prep work — degreasing, sanding, priming — is what determines whether the finish holds up, and it's most of the labor cost.
Will painted cabinets hold up in a kitchen environment?+
With the right primer and topcoat system, yes — properly painted cabinets can perform well for 10+ years even with regular kitchen use. Cheap paint jobs that skip proper prep and use interior wall paint instead of cabinet-grade finishes fail much faster, which is why we don't shortcut the process.
Can you match new cabinet doors to my existing kitchen layout?+
Yes, for refacing projects we template your existing cabinet boxes precisely so the new doors and drawer fronts fit exactly, without needing to replace the underlying cabinet structure.
