For Cabinet Painting, how do you prepare cabinets before painting?
Scuff sanding prepares cleaned cabinet surfaces for paint by dulling smooth areas and improving coating adhesion. We remove hardware, degrease doors and frames, address surface repairs, protect nearby areas, and apply bonding primer when the selected system calls for it. The exact preparation follows the condition of the cabinet parts and the agreed work scope.
What cabinet parts do you inspect before the work starts?
Cabinet doors, drawer fronts, frames, edges, hardware, and visible damage receive an initial review. We look for grease, loose coating, dents, cracks, worn edges, and areas that need related carpentry work. That review helps us set a clear scope before painting begins, especially when existing cabinets have different surface conditions.
Which cabinet conditions change the project quote?
Cabinet condition, part count, hardware, repairs, preparation, protection, and access change the project quote. A free in-home consultation lets us review those details with you. The agreement can then address cabinet doors, drawer fronts, frames, refacing needs, and related carpentry work without assigning an unsupported amount.
When scheduling Cabinet Painting, when is refacing a better fit than painting?
Refacing is a better fit when the visible cabinet parts need replacement or a new surface, while painting keeps the existing parts. We review the condition of the doors, drawer fronts, and frames before recommending the work scope. Major structural damage can also point to a different cabinet project instead of a paint-only service.
Why does cabinet hardware come off before painting?
Hardware comes off so we can reach cabinet edges and keep paint away from pulls, knobs, hinges, and screws. We discuss how the hardware will be handled during the consultation. Removal also helps us inspect the areas around each fitting, where grease, worn coating, or small surface damage may need attention.
What should I do before the in-home cabinet consultation for Cabinet Painting?
Your main task is to share your cabinet goals, color ideas, hardware concerns, and known damage. Clear access to the cabinet doors and frames helps us review the surfaces. You can also note which areas need related carpentry work, refacing, or a finish change so the consultation covers the decisions that matter.
