Prep decides the finish
Cabinets take more abuse than any wall. Doors and drawers are removed and labeled, every surface is degreased and sanded, dings are filled, and a bonding primer goes on before the finish coats. Skipping any of that is why cheap cabinet paint jobs chip.
A finish built for daily use
We use cabinet-grade enamel finishes that level out smooth and cure hard. Doors and drawer fronts are finished separately from the boxes so edges and panels get full coverage.
Refinish or replace?
If the boxes are sound and the layout works, painting is the fastest way to change a kitchen. If you want a new layout, new sizes or a full custom build, our sister company Stealth General Contracting builds and installs custom cabinets.

Questions about cabinet painting & refinishing
How long does cabinet painting take?
It depends on the number of doors and the finish system. We give you the schedule in the bid, including how long the kitchen will be out of use.
Can you change stained wood cabinets to painted?
Yes. Stained cabinets are cleaned, sanded and primed with a stain-blocking bonding primer before the finish coats.
Do you build new cabinets?
Yes, through Stealth General Contracting. We build and install custom kitchen cabinets, islands, vanities and closet built-ins.
