Cabinet Painting Process

1. Free On-Site Estimate
We visit your home, count the cabinet doors and drawer fronts, assess the condition of the existing finish, and provide a firm written quote on the spot.

2. Colour Selection
Not sure what colour to choose? We help you select from thousands of Benjamin Moore colours — considering your countertops, flooring, and lighting to find the perfect match.

3. Prep & Strip
Cabinet doors are removed and hardware is set aside. Surfaces are cleaned, sanded, and any dents or dings are filled to create a smooth base for painting.

4. Prime
We apply a high-adhesion primer to ensure the paint bonds properly to the surface — critical for a durable, long-lasting finish on kitchen cabinets.

5. Paint
Two to three coats of cabinet-grade paint applied for full, even coverage. We use Benjamin Moore Advance alkyd paint — known for its exceptional hardness and smooth levelling on cabinet surfaces.

6. Reinstall & Clean Up
Doors are reinstalled, hardware is replaced, and we clean up completely. Your kitchen is ready to use.
