Commitment to Quality Results
Door Removal
We remove all cabinet doors and drawers to allow for full coverage, cleaner spray lines, and a smoother finish. Each piece is carefully labeled along with its hardware to ensure accurate and efficient reinstallation once painting is complete.
Cleaning + Prep
We deep clean all cabinet surfaces and sand where necessary to promote strong paint adhesion and ensure a smooth, long-lasting finish. This preparation step prevents peeling, bubbling, and uneven texture in the final result.

We use the right tools for every stage of the cabinet painting process to achieve a flawless finish. Our painters are trained to select the best method—sprayer, roller, or brush—based on the surface, paint type, and desired texture.

Our Cabinet Painting Process
We follow a step-by-step system to ensure smooth, professional results that last.
1. Cleaning + Surface Prep
We deep clean all cabinet surfaces to remove grease, residue, and oils. Then we sand where needed to ensure strong paint adhesion and a smooth, durable finish. This prep prevents peeling, bubbling, and uneven coverage.
2. Door & Drawer Removal
Cabinet doors and drawers are carefully removed for better access and cleaner application. Every piece is labeled and hardware is stored to ensure accurate reassembly after painting.
3. Protection & Masking
We cover all countertops, appliances, floors, and nearby surfaces using drop cloths, tape, and plastic sheeting. Work zones are sealed off to control dust and overspray.
4. Priming
We apply a high-bond, stain-blocking primer formulated specifically for cabinets. This seals the surface, blocks tannins and bleed-through, and creates a stable base for color coats.
5. Paint Application
Depending on the surface and design, we use a professional-grade sprayer, roller, or fine brush to apply multiple coats of cabinet-grade enamel or urethane-based paint. The result is a smooth, even finish with no visible brush marks.
6. Reassembly & Final Inspection
Once dry and cured, we reinstall all doors, drawers, and hardware. We conduct a final walkthrough with you to ensure the results meet your expectations.
