Kitchen cabinet refinishing

11 years ago

I have dark cabinets and am thinking about having them refinished in white. I know they can take off the doors, paint them and paint the boxes as well, but I have no idea in cost. I know it would be dependent on number of cabinets, but does anyone have any ideas in cost ranges? Thanks so much!!!

Cost for this will vary, with the main ingredient being the level of service performed. Having sprayed over 100 kitchens, for somewhere between $5k to $8k (1 finish or 2, faux or just white...), we would:

- Remove all hardware

- Tape up everything not getting paint on it

- TSP to degrease all surfaces - and rinse

- SAND by hand - no deglossers or Peso....very important step not to be skipped if you want the job to last

- Vacuum all dust

- Spray primer (for painting cabinets)

- Sand again - vac again

- Spray two coats of product - additional layers for faux or second colors

- Peal, touch up, clean up, reassemble kitchen

Hope that helps? Robert with BATHOLOGi of Oklahoma.
