Cabinet Assessment
We inspect your cabinets for damage, adhesion issues, and material type. We discuss color options and recommend the right finish for your kitchen's use.
Door Removal & Labeling
Every door, drawer, and piece of hardware is carefully removed and labeled for precise reinstallation. Hinges and pulls are catalogued.
Degreasing & Sanding
All surfaces are thoroughly degreased, scuff-sanded for adhesion, and wiped clean. This step is critical for a finish that lasts.
Priming & Painting
Adhesion primer followed by two coats of Benjamin Moore Advance for a factory-smooth, furniture-quality finish that resists chips and yellowing.
Reinstallation & Detail Work
Doors and drawers are carefully rehung with adjusted hinges. New hardware installed if requested. Final quality check on every piece.

Cabinet Refinishing FAQ for King West Homeowners
Answers to the questions we hear most often
How long does cabinet refinishing take?
Most kitchen cabinet projects in King West take 5 to 8 days from door removal to final reinstallation. This includes proper drying time between coats. We work efficiently while ensuring each coat cures fully for a durable finish.
Is cabinet refinishing cheaper than replacing?
Yes, significantly. Cabinet refinishing typically costs 70 to 80 percent less than full replacement while delivering a completely transformed look. For warehouse-to-residential conversions in King West, it is one of the highest-value kitchen upgrades you can make.
What paint do you use on cabinets?
Benjamin Moore Advance is our go-to for cabinet work. It levels to a factory-smooth finish, resists yellowing and chipping, and provides the durability kitchen cabinets demand. For high-use areas, we may recommend Scuff-X.
Can you change the color of my cabinets?
Absolutely. We can go from dark oak to bright white, natural wood to navy blue, or any color you choose. With proper prep and the right primer, we can refinish virtually any cabinet material to any color.
Will the paint chip or peel off?
Not with our process. Proper degreasing, sanding, and adhesion primer are the keys to a finish that lasts. We use cabinet-specific products and techniques that create a bond stronger than the original factory finish.
Do you refinish bathroom vanities too?
Yes. Bathroom vanities, laundry room cabinets, and built-in shelving all get the same professional treatment as kitchen cabinets. We use moisture-resistant finishes for bathroom and laundry applications.
Can I use my kitchen during the project?
Partially. Your countertops and appliances remain usable throughout most of the process. Only the final day of reinstallation requires the kitchen to be clear. We coordinate timing to minimize disruption.
What warranty covers cabinet refinishing?
Our 2-year warranty covers cabinet work against peeling, chipping, and adhesion failure under normal use. This includes kitchens, bathrooms, and all refinished surfaces. If something goes wrong, we fix it.
