Cabinet Painting Job Steps

FAQ

Our cabinet painting process involves several steps to ensure a high-quality finish. First, we remove all doors and hardware. Next, we clean and sand the surfaces to remove any grease and create a smooth base. Then, we apply a primer to help the paint adhere better. Finally, we apply multiple coats of high-quality paint and reassemble the cabinets once they are fully dry.

The duration of the cabinet painting project depends on the size of your kitchen and the complexity of the work. On average, it takes about 3 to 5 days to complete the process. This timeframe includes preparation, painting, and drying time. We ensure minimal disruption to your daily routine and keep you informed throughout the process.
