Common Questions

Cabinet painting
FAQ.

How long does cabinet painting take? +

Most kitchen cabinet projects are completed in 3–5 days. Day 1: doors removed, labeled, and transported to our spray booth; box frames prepped and primed on-site. Days 2–3: spray booth application of primer and two topcoats on all doors and drawer fronts. Day 4–5: re-installation, hardware mounting, and final adjustments. Your kitchen is fully functional again within the week.

How durable is the painted cabinet finish? +

We use a hard catalyzed topcoat (similar to automotive finishes) that is scrubbable, moisture-resistant, and highly chip-resistant. With proper care, our cabinet finishes last 10–15 years. The finish will not yellow, and we back it with a 2-year warranty against peeling, chipping, and yellowing due to application failure.

What's the difference between cabinet painting and cabinet refacing? +

Cabinet painting refinishes the existing doors and boxes with a new color and fresh finish. Cabinet refacing replaces the door fronts and applies veneer to the box exteriors — it costs significantly more ($8,000–$20,000) and takes longer. Painting is the better choice when your cabinet boxes and doors are structurally sound; refacing is typically only necessary when the door style itself needs to change.

Can laminate or MDF cabinets be painted? +

Yes. With proper bonding primer and surface preparation, laminate and MDF cabinets paint beautifully and hold a finish well. These surfaces actually benefit from spray application since they have no wood grain to show through. We've refinished thousands of laminate and MDF cabinets across Greater Cape Cod with excellent long-term results.

Will I need to redo my countertops after cabinet painting? +

Not at all — that's one of the biggest advantages of painting vs. replacing. We work carefully around your existing countertops, protecting them throughout the process. Many clients pair a new cabinet color with their existing countertops and the result looks like a complete kitchen remodel for a fraction of the cost.
