Replacing kitchen cabinets usually means weeks without a kitchen, new countertops, and a bill that dwarfs the rest of the project. If your layout works and the cabinets are solid, painting or refacing gets you most of the visual change for a small share of the cost.
The difference between a finish that looks great for years and one that chips in months is the prep: degreasing, sanding, a bonding primer and a sprayed, cabinet-grade topcoat. That's the part we never skip.

The complete guide
Cabinets are the biggest visual element in a kitchen, and replacing them is the most expensive part of a remodel. That's why painting, refinishing and refacing have become so popular. Here's the plain-English version of what each one involves, what it costs, and how to tell a real cabinet finish from a weekend paint job.
Painting changes the color and keeps your door style; it's the best choice when the cabinets are structurally sound and you just want a new look. Refinishing keeps real wood visible: we strip the worn finish, repair, re-stain and seal. Refacing replaces the doors and drawer fronts and covers the visible frames, so you get a different style without demolition. Each solves a different problem, and we'll tell you honestly which fits your cabinets.
Kitchen cabinets collect a film of cooking grease and hand oils that you can't see but paint can't stick to. A durable result needs degreasing, scuff-sanding, repair of dings and gouges, and a bonding primer before any color goes on. Skipping those steps is why so many painted cabinets chip at the edges within a year or two, and why DIY and low-bid jobs fail.
A sprayed finish lays down thin, even coats that level out smooth, with no brush strokes, roller texture or drips. Doors and drawer fronts are removed and sprayed flat, and the boxes are sprayed in place with the room masked off. The finish is also harder and more consistent than most brushed coats.
Most kitchen cabinet painting jobs run roughly $3,500–$8,500. Refinishing is typically $3,500–$9,000 and refacing $7,000–$16,000. What moves the number is the count of doors and drawers, the condition of the current finish, how big a color change you're making, and whether you're adding hardware or soft-close upgrades. Every quote is free, in writing and firm before work starts.
A well-prepped, sprayed cabinet-grade finish holds up to everyday kitchen life for many years. Paint keeps hardening for a few weeks after it feels dry, so we ask you to go easy on the cabinets at first. Cabinets that fail early almost always share one story: skipped prep, the wrong primer, or regular wall paint.
Ask how they prep, what product they spray, whether doors come off, how long cure time is, and whether the quote is in writing. If a bid can't answer those clearly, the low price is usually buying you a thin, short-lived finish.

If you like your layout and the cabinet boxes are solid, usually yes. Painting or refacing costs a fraction of new cabinets, keeps your countertops and floors in place, and takes days instead of weeks.
Painting changes the color and keeps your door style. Refinishing keeps real wood and refreshes the stain. Refacing replaces the doors and drawer fronts for a different style. We'll tell you which fits at the free estimate.
Most kitchens take about a week. Refacing takes longer because the new doors are made to order.
A properly prepped, sprayed cabinet-grade finish holds up well to daily use. Chipping and peeling almost always come from skipped prep, the wrong primer or regular wall paint. We degrease, sand, prime with a bonding primer and spray a hard-wearing topcoat.
No. We remove the doors and drawer fronts and spray them flat so the finish is smooth with no runs, then reinstall them. The boxes and frames are sprayed in place.
Yes. Oak has a heavy open grain that shows through paint unless it's filled. We grain-fill for a smooth modern look, or leave some grain if you prefer.
Yes. Doors and drawer fronts are sprayed in a finishing area and the boxes are sprayed in place with the area masked off. You can usually keep using the sink and appliances, with some days of limited access to the cabinets.
Any color. Warm white, greige, sage green, navy and charcoal are popular, and two-tone kitchens with a contrasting island are common. We bring samples to the free estimate.
