Kitchen Cabinets
Kitchen cabinet painting is one of the highest-impact upgrades you can make without changing your layout or doing a full renovation. We repaint cabinet doors, drawer fronts, and frames using a cabinet-specific prep and coating system designed to resist moisture, grease, and frequent cleaning. With professional spraying and careful detail work, you get a smooth, consistent finish that can make an older kitchen look brighter, cleaner, and more modern. We’ll also help you choose the right sheen and colour for a finish that looks great in real-life lighting and holds up to daily use.
Cabinet Frames
Cabinet frames are the parts you see and touch every day—the face frames around doors and drawers, end panels, toe kicks, and any visible stiles/rails—so they need the same level of prep and durability as the doors. We carefully mask and protect surrounding surfaces, then clean, sand/degloss, spot-repair, and prime as needed to ensure strong adhesion on these high-wear areas. Once coated with cabinet-grade products, painted frames create a seamless, uniform look that ties the whole kitchen together and prevents the “new doors/old boxes” contrast.
Our Cabinet Painting Process
-
We look at cabinet material, existing coatings, wear areas, and layout, then confirm the best approach for long-term adhesion. You’ll get clear expectations for timeline, cure time, and how to prepare your space.
-
Prep is where great cabinet work starts. We protect surrounding surfaces, clean thoroughly, and prep each component so the coating system bonds properly instead of peeling or chipping later.
-
We use controlled spraying methods to create an even finish with minimal texture. This is how we achieve the clean, consistent look homeowners want—especially on doors and drawer fronts.
-
After proper dry/cure time, we reinstall components, remove masking, clean up, and review everything with you. If touch-ups are needed, we handle them before closing out the job.

I've had Elevation work on a few projects over the last year or so (my home office remodel, laundry room remodel, fence staining and general painting of the common areas of my house).

Cabinet painting FAQ
-
Timelines depend on cabinet size, condition, and the coating system used. After a quick assessment, we’ll provide a clear schedule including dry time and when your cabinets can be used normally.
-
Yes—when cabinets are properly cleaned, prepped, primed, and coated with cabinet-grade products, the finish is designed for high-touch areas. We’ll also share the best cleaning methods to avoid premature wear during cure time.
-
Doors and drawer fronts are typically sprayed to achieve a smooth, consistent finish. We’ll explain exactly what will be removed, what will be painted on-site, and how we protect your home during application.
-
We generally recommend emptying cabinets and drawers so we can work safely and efficiently. We’ll tell you exactly what to remove before we arrive.
-
In many cases, yes—but the right prep steps and primer choice are critical. We’ll assess what you have and recommend the best system for proper adhesion and a clean final look.
-
Yes—many laminate cabinets can be painted, but success depends on the cabinet’s condition, the type of laminate/finish, and using the correct adhesion-focused prep. We start with a careful assessment, then clean and degloss thoroughly and use specialty primers designed to bond to slick surfaces before applying durable cabinet-grade topcoats.
Not every laminate cabinet is a perfect candidate (for example, peeling laminate, water-swollen edges, or failing thermofoil can limit results). If we see any red flags, we’ll tell you upfront and recommend the best path—whether that’s targeted repairs, a different coating approach, or refinishing/replacement alternatives.
