Kitchen cabinets can show wear quickly from daily use, leaving surfaces scratched, faded and dated. With kitchen cabinet refinishing and painting, you can update the colour and finish without replacing your cabinetry or changing the kitchen layout. At Evenflow Painting, we bring expert preparation and painting techniques to every cabinet refinishing project.
Cabinet refinishing requires more preparation than a standard wall or room. Kitchen cabinets are touched, opened, and cleaned regularly, so the existing surface needs to be properly prepared before a new finish is applied. Our process focuses on preparing the existing surfaces properly and applying the new finish evenly.
Once the work is finished, the completed areas are reviewed to check the overall result. The work area is also cleaned up so the project is left in good order.
Painting your kitchen cabinets changes the colour and overall appearance of your existing cabinets. It can give the kitchen a noticeably different look while allowing you to keep the cabinet layout and cabinetry you already have. Our cabinet painting services include:
Cabinet refinishing is generally less expensive than replacing a complete kitchen cabinet system because you're working with the cabinets you already have. Replacement adds the cost of new cabinets, installation, hardware, and potentially other changes in the kitchen.
Refinishing usually involves less work than a full cabinet replacement because the existing cabinet boxes and layout stay in place. The actual timeline depends on the size of the kitchen, cabinet condition, preparation and finish. Cabinet refinishing is generally a shorter process than replacing the cabinets. Since the existing cabinetry and layout remain in place, the work is focused on preparing and updating the cabinet surfaces.
New cabinets may be worth considering when the existing cabinets are badly damaged, the layout needs to change, or additional storage is needed. Refinishing is intended for cabinets that are suitable to keep but need an updated appearance.
The kitchen cabinet refinishing cost depends on the number of doors and drawers, cabinet material, existing finish, condition, preparation and overall scope of the project.
For homeowners planning to refresh their kitchen cabinets, professional refinishing and painting typically falls within the following range:
| Project Size | Low | Average | High |
| Small Kitchen | $2,000 | $3,000 | $4,000 |
| Average Kitchen | $3,000 | $4,500 | $6,000 |
| Large Kitchen | $4,000 | $6,500 | $8,000+ |
These are general pricing ranges for planning purposes, not fixed Evenflow prices. Your final cost will depend on the cabinets, finish, and scope of work involved in your kitchen.
More doors and drawers, detailed cabinet profiles, worn surfaces, difficult existing finishes, and additional preparation can affect the overall price.
Finding good kitchen cabinet painting contractors is about more than just finding someone who can apply a new colour. You want a team that understands how the finish will look in your kitchen, works carefully with existing cabinetry, and treats the project as a part of your home rather than just another paint job.
