WHAT HAPPENS TO YOUR CABINETS

Our 5-Day Cabinet Process

Our process
  • Day 1
    DEGREASE, LABEL & PREP

    Every door and drawer is labeled, degreased, and carefully removed. We mask and protect your kitchen countertops, floors, appliances, everything. Your space stays clean from day one.

  • Day 2
    SURFACE PREPARATION

    Doors and casings are thoroughly prepped with adhesion testing and sanding to ensure a flawless foundation. No shortcuts! Proper prep is why our finishes last.

  • Day 3
    DOUBLE PRIME

    Two coats of premium bonding primer are applied to all casings and cabinet doors. Sanding between coats for perfect adhesion. This is what separates a professional finish from a DIY job.

  • Day 4
    DOUBLE TOPCOAT

    Two coats of your chosen premium finish are applied using HVLP spray equipment. Sanding between coats for a smooth, factory-quality result. Our guaranteed 4-coat system (2 primer + 2 topcoat) is standard across all three finish options we offer.

  • Day 5
    INSTALL & FINAL WALKTHROUGH

    Doors and drawers are reinstalled with care. We do a detailed walkthrough with you to make sure every detail is perfect. Most projects completed in 5 days. Backed by our 2-year warranty.

Quick Answers to Your Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

During our initial consultation, we'll assess your space, discuss your preferences and requirements, and answer any questions you may have about the project or our processes.
Yes, painting cabinets is generally much more cost-effective than replacing them. Painting can give your cabinets a fresh, new look at a fraction of the cost of new cabinetry. Painting your existing cabinets can save you significant time and money, making it an excellent choice for budget-conscious homeowners looking to update their kitchen or bathroom without a full remodel.
The duration of the project depends on the size of the area and the complexity of the work. We will provide a timeline estimate during our initial consultation. Most projects can be completed in 5 days especially if higher quality paint is used due to fast dry times.
We use only in-house trained crews — no subcontractors, ever. Every project follows our proven system with a guaranteed 4-coat application and a 2-year warranty on labour and materials. We're A+ BBB rated with 90+ five-star Google reviews.
You can, but professional cabinet painting requires specialized equipment (HVLP sprayers), premium primers, controlled environments, and proper technique. Our 4-coat system and 2-year warranty exist because the process matters as much as the paint.
Minimal prep on your end — just clear your countertops. Your cupboards can stay full. If drawer faces are stapled or fastened, we may ask you to remove those drawers contents beforehand. Everything else — masking, protection, cleanup — is on us.
We strive to accommodate your schedule to minimize disruption. Let us know your availability, and we'll plan the project phases accordingly.
Yes, we will need a 25% payment for covering of the materials to be used before we start.
Yes, we offer a satisfaction guarantee and a warranty covering the quality of our workmanship and materials used. Specific warranty details will be provided in your service agreement.
Yes, we are fully insured and licensed. We ensure that our team adheres to the highest standards of safety and professional conduct and customer satisfaction.
We exclusively use premium brands: Renner, Sherwin-Williams, Benjamin Moore specific cabinet coatings. We never use cheap paint. Renner Italian Coatings is our top-tier option, offering 10–15 year durability, superior scratch and moisture resistance, and a flawless furniture-grade finish. Most homeowners choose Renner for kitchens and high-traffic areas. We'll recommend the best paint option for your project and budget in your personalized quote.
