Can you paint my existing kitchen cabinets for Cabinet Painting?
Cabinet doors can be painted when their surfaces and structure support the planned finish, and Thomas J. Painting assesses them first. We also review drawer fronts, face frames, wood cabinets, and laminate cabinets when they belong to the project. Repairs, preparation, protection, and the requested finish become part of the agreement after the in-home consultation.
How should I prepare my kitchen before cabinet painting starts?
Kitchen access should be clear before cabinet painting begins. Remove personal items from cabinets and counters, and discuss appliances or areas that need continued access during the consultation. We protect nearby floors and surfaces, but the agreed scope should also identify any furniture, fixtures, or stored items that need attention before work starts.
Which cabinet parts change the project scope?
Doors, drawer fronts, face frames, end panels, and related millwork change the project scope. Each part adds surface area and may have different wear, hardware, or repair needs. We review those parts during the in-home meeting, then separate included painting from related carpentry or refacing work in the agreement.
What makes cabinet painting cost more on one project?
Surface repairs, cabinet condition, the number of parts, protection needs, and finish requirements affect the project cost. A free consultation gives us the setting needed to discuss those details. We review the cabinets in person and develop an agreement instead of giving an unsupported amount before seeing the work.
When is refacing a better fit than painting for Cabinet Painting?
Refacing is a better fit when selected cabinet surfaces or parts need a different treatment than paint alone. We compare the cabinet condition, desired appearance, and requested scope during the consultation. Painting keeps the existing cabinet structure as the base, while refacing addresses selected visible surfaces or parts.
Why does cabinet paint fail at edges and handles?
Cabinet paint can fail at edges and handle areas when wear, damage, or surface preparation needs were not addressed. We inspect those contact points before painting and include suitable repairs in the agreed scope. Daily use also matters, so we discuss the cabinet layout and areas that receive the most handling.
