Kitchen Cabinet Painting Process

Posted on January 5, 2023 by Scott Bardash

It seems now more than ever, the family kitchen is the true heart of our home! We spend time together in the kitchen cooking, eating, entertaining – and in the process, we add the life to our homes. Over time, some of that life and love can wear on your cabinets and you may be looking at options to update your kitchen. Instead of a full kitchen renovation, many people look at the kitchen cabinet painting process as a more affordable option that can still make a huge impact in your home!

You may have looked at how to paint kitchen cabinets yourself and thought about tackling the project on your own. If you’re handy and have the proper tools, this may be an option for you. If you’re like many of us, though, this may be a job better left to the professionals! Our painters have years of experience doing this exact project – and our results speak for themselves! Here’s a quick behind-the-scenes look at our process for painting kitchen cabinets:

 

We come to you to put together a free quote

A top question is always “how much does it cost to have my kitchen cabinets painted?” and the best way for us to answer that is to come take a look and put together a free cabinet painting quote for you. Every kitchen is different, and we want to give you the price that you will pay. Some cabinets will take more prep work, have more panels and trim, or intricate details, while others are more simple and take less time. Our quotes are all-inclusive and we detail exactly what that price covers. No surprises or hidden fees, it’s all taken care of!

 

Choosing a kitchen cabinet color

Are you painting your kitchen cabinets a classic white? Maybe a modern black? Moody blue? We have done it all! Browse Instagram, Pinterest, Sherwin-Williams and everywhere else for inspiration. Then just show us your dream color and let’s talk about how we can make it happen!

Not sure what color to paint? We’ve got you covered there, too! Many of our kitchen cabinet painting projects qualify for a free color consultation with an interior designer specializing in color. If you’ve ever tried to pick a shade of white, you’ll know how overwhelming that can be. We’ve seen these colors in action and are happy to guide you to the best color for kitchen cabinets in your home!

 

Getting started

Before we begin, we will walk the project with you and verify all of the details and answer any questions.

As with all painting, the quality of the finish is based on the prep work. Our painters will start by protecting your kitchen from any paint splatters or overspray. Anything not getting painted will be covered. We also will set up a temporary spray booth, typically in your garage.

 

Painting

The process for painting and products used will depend on a lot of factors, as each kitchen is unique. When we make your quote, we will customize the process for your kitchen so that you don’t pay for anything you don’t need. A typical kitchen may have the following steps:

  • We remove cabinet doors and drawers, and all hardware. We then take these to the temporary spray booth in your garage to be painted.
  • Next we lightly sand as needed for paint adhesion.
  • Lines and seams are caulked where needed.
  • Often, we need to use a spray primer. This is typically an oil based primer. Oil based primer does a great job of sealing the surface of the wood, allowing the paint to cover better.
  • Most cabinets will now have two coats of paint sprayed. What paint is best for painting kitchen cabinets? Well, it depends! Over the years, we have selected certain paints that perform better in various situations. If you’re painting a dark color, we may suggest using a different product than if you’re painting the cabinets white.
  • Through the process, our painters and Quality Managers will perform numerous quality inspections to make sure everything looks great.
  • Now it’s time to put everything back together, and clean up your beautifully refreshed kitchen!

How long does it take to paint kitchen cabinets?

Our process typically takes 3-4 days, depending on the size of the kitchen and the work needed.

We will do our best to stay out of your way, keep your home and as much of your kitchen as usable as possible throughout the project.

A New Look for a Kitchen

Posted on June 28, 2022 by Scott Bardash

 

Kitchen Cabinet Updates with Paint!

Like so many Indianapolis area homeowners, this Westfield family was looking for an update to their dated wood kitchen cabinets. They were not new to Guy Painting, they had recently moved into a new house and had already had us out to paint most of the interior of their home and were getting ready for us to come back to paint a few more rooms! Since they loved working with Guy Painting, they decided to get a free quote to paint their kitchen cabinets, too. We’ve been painting a lot of kitchen cabinets recently!

They had a great kitchen layout and the cabinets were in good condition, so it did not make sense to replace the cabinets. Luckily, painting kitchen cabinets is a cost-effective way to get that updated look for less money than replacing the cabinets! They met with Sean, to go over options and pricing to paint kitchen cabinets. Sean got some measurements and gave them a quote on the spot so they could make a decision on what they wanted to do for the home. Since they were familiar with us, they signed up on the spot to get their kitchen cabinets painted!

 

The process for painting kitchen cabinets takes a few days, and as with all painting projects, prep work is so important! Our professional painters take care the protect everything in the kitchen. We put down coverings on the floor and we tape off everything that won’t be painted with plastic. We remove doors and drawers and set up a separate area to spray those items. For cabinetry, we spray everything including the cabinets themselves in order to leave a smooth finish free of brush or roll marks.

In this kitchen, the customer wanted a different color on the island. For this, we end up covering the rest of the cabinets and spraying the island first, and then covering the island and spraying the rest of the kitchen.

Origami White

Taupe Tone

We love the way the white cabinets pop against the slate blue walls. It’s a beautiful look and the homeowners love it! When asked how the process went, they said:

It went very well & only 3 days from start to finish.

All painters were efficient, friendly, and did a great job!

Updating with Shiplap? Need it painted?

Posted on April 30, 2022 by Scott Bardash

Isn’t it great when you know a Guy?? This Indianapolis homeowner has been thrilled with our professional painting team in the past, we have done exterior painting and wood replacement for them and for their neighborhood for many years. When it came time to paint some interior woodwork and walls, they knew just the painters to call!

Painting over wood paneling and shiplap takes some additional prep and work, and is a more specialized type of painting than just painting a wall. Our team of professional painters has the experience to do this and get the results that you are looking for. Our quality team will fully manage the process so all you have to do is enjoy your freshly painted home!

Painting the Kitchen Island

In the kitchen, they wanted their kitchen island painted. They had installed some wood panels of shiplap over the island, and decided they wanted it painted black to match the cabinets.

As always, our team of painters and supervisors set to work to match the color. Sometimes we do not know the name of the color that we are matching, but we have the knowledge and tools to properly match an existing color. These black cabinets required a custom matched color, but that is never a problem for our team!

Painting Newly Updated Shiplap Sunroom

The sunroom had new wood paneling to be painted. With help from one of our color consultants, the homeowner chose a popular warmer gray, SW 7029 Agreeable Gray. The new modern colors make the room extra bright!

We love the way these doors were built in to the wood paneling in the hallway. We love it even more now that it has been painted a beautiful bright white!

“We’ve used Guy Painting twice in the last 3 years and have been so pleased with every experience. We had our whole house painted two years ago and they did a fantastic job. They helped us choose a color combination we love. Their wood repair, prep, and painting was all well done. Guy Painting just completed a second project replacing some rotten trim boards at our home. They went above and beyond to check the whole exterior and replace all questionable wood. We will use them again and would highly recommend their painting services.” – Carrie Johnson
