Our Cabinet Painting Process

We start by removing any hardware from your cabinets, like the doors, knobs, and handles. We then clean the surfaces with a strong cleaner to remove any grease and other debris. We’ll then sand your cabinets thoroughly to ensure that the primer and paint we put on top bond to the surface. Sanding also helps get rid of any existing scratches, uneven spots, and other noticeable eyesores you don’t want people to see.

After we have thoroughly sanded the cabinets, we apply primer. Primer will help ensure that the two coats of paint we apply adhere better to the cabinet surface. Primer acts as a base, so it helps provide a more even surface for the paint finish. Primer can also help your paint last longer by offering protection against peeling and scratches due to the improved adhesion.

After the primer dries, we apply the first coat of paint. At GRH Painting LLC, we use paint specifically designed for cabinets from trusted brands like Benjamin Moore and Sherwin-Williams. We apply the first coat very carefully to create a uniform color. We let it dry for a couple of hours or even a full day before applying the final coat. We then let the second coat fully dry before reattaching the cabinet hardware.

We follow a very similar process when it comes to staining your cabinets, with some noticeable differences. For example, staining doesn’t require primer, and you also need to sand a lot more, all the way to the wood. Plus, a few more details.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Staining gives color to the cabinet's wood grain while paint conceals these wooden patterns. When you stain, you can enhance the wood marks with color. Since paint is thicker, you won’t see the wooden lines as you would with staining when you paint them, but this also gives it a more uniform look. We can help you decide whether staining or painting your cabinets will provide you with the results you’re looking for in a kitchen remodel.

  • A kitchen cabinet painting project typically takes us around 3 to 4 days to complete. The size of your cabinets and the number of cabinets you need painted will make a difference. Prep work is an important part, and the state of your cabinets also makes a difference, as it may take us longer to sand cabinets that are very outdated. We have to let the primer and paint dry in between coats for the best results, so we don’t rush the process.

  • The cost to paint kitchen cabinets varies based on the number of cabinets you need painted. The more cabinets, the more labor we need to do. Cabinets in decent condition will also be easier to paint than older ones, which also affects the amount of labor required. Our prices are competitive, and we’re happy to give you a free estimate.

  • It’s more expensive to replace kitchen cabinets than to stain or paint them. If you’re cabinets are still in semi-good condition and you want to give your kitchen an update, staining or painting cabinets is a cost-effective solution to make your kitchen stand out. However, if you’re cabinets are in bad condition, then it may be better to get them replaced. We’re honest painters and we'll always do what’s best for our customers.
