Frequently Asked Questions
How durable are professionally painted kitchen cabinets?
With proper cleaning, sanding, bonding primer, and a hard-curing cabinet coating, painted cabinets can perform beautifully for many years. Avoiding harsh degreasers and Magic Erasers, and wiping surfaces gently, helps the finish resist chipping, scuffs, and daily kitchen wear.
Why does cabinet painting cost more than regular interior painting?
Most of the work is preparation. Doors are removed, labeled, degreased, sanded, repaired, primed, and sanded between coats, often in a controlled spray area. Specialty coatings and required cure times also add to the investment behind a smooth, durable finish.
Is painting cabinets cheaper than replacing them?
Yes, significantly. If your cabinet boxes and doors are solid and you like the existing layout, professional painting delivers a dramatic transformation for a fraction of the typical replacement cost, without demolition, countertop removal, or weeks without a working kitchen.
Do you spray or brush cabinets?
Both methods produce excellent results when done correctly. Spraying typically delivers the smoothest, most uniform finish, while brush and roller application suits certain projects and occupied spaces. We recommend the approach that best fits your cabinets, coating, and desired appearance.
How long does a cabinet painting project take?
Most kitchen cabinet projects take one to two weeks, depending on the number of doors and drawers, required repairs, and chosen coating system. Respecting drying and cure times between steps is essential, since rushing can compromise an otherwise excellent finish.
Can I change my cabinet hardware when you paint?
Yes, and it is truly the perfect time. We fill old hardware holes, sand them flush, and drill for new knobs, handles, or pulls before coating, so your updated hardware sits perfectly on a seamless finish with no visible patches.
What cabinet colors are popular in Wilmington, North Carolina homes?
Crisp whites, soft greiges, and coastal blues remain local favorites, while deep navy, sage green, and two-tone kitchens add bold personality. Our color consultation considers your countertops, backsplash, flooring, and natural lighting so the finished cabinets feel cohesive and timeless.
How should I clean my painted cabinets?
Wipe surfaces with a soft cloth, warm water, and mild dish soap, then dry them thoroughly. Avoid abrasive pads, Magic Erasers, and strong degreasers, which dull or wear coatings. Gentle care around knobs and pulls keeps your finish looking fresh.
