Cabinet Painting in South Bay, CA — Factory Finish for Your Kitchen

A full kitchen cabinet replacement in the South Bay typically runs $15,000–$40,000. Our professional cabinet painting process delivers a result that looks and functions identically to new cabinetry for roughly 20–30% of that cost. The key is our factory-controlled spray process: doors and drawer fronts are removed, taken off-site, and finished with a hardened urethane coating that cures to a glass-smooth, chip-resistant surface.

Our Cabinet Painting Process

All cabinet doors and drawer fronts are removed and labeled for exact re-installation. They go to our controlled spray environment where they are degreased, sanded to 150 grit, primed with a tannin-blocking adhesion primer, sprayed with two coats of professional cabinet enamel, and allowed to fully cure before re-installation.

This off-site process eliminates the overspray, dust contamination, and brush marks that occur when cabinets are painted in place. Cabinet boxes — the frames left in your kitchen — are hand-sanded, primed, and brush-painted with the same enamel.

We use professional-grade cabinet enamels: Benjamin Moore Advance, Sherwin-Williams Emerald Urethane Trim, or Dunn-Edwards Spartashield. These products cure to a ceramic-hard surface, are designed for frequent washing, resist fingerprints and grease, and do not yellow over time.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will the paint chip or scratch?

Not with our system. The professional enamels we use cure to a hardness that standard interior paints never achieve. Normal kitchen use — including washing, scrubbing, and repeated opening — will not damage the finish.

Do you spray or brush?

Both. Doors and drawer fronts are sprayed off-site for a glass-smooth result. Cabinet boxes are hand-painted in place with a very fine-nap roller and brush.

How long does cabinet painting take?

A typical full kitchen takes 3–5 days: one day for removal and box painting, 2–3 days for off-site door finishing and cure time, and a half-day for reinstallation.

Can you paint any color?

Yes. We can match any Benjamin Moore, Sherwin-Williams, or Dunn-Edwards color — or custom-match from a sample. White, off-white, navy, sage, and charcoal are our most-requested South Bay finishes.

Do I need to empty my cabinets?

We ask that you remove items from the lower cabinets only. Upper cabinet contents can stay as long as they are moved to the back of the shelf during painting days.

How much does cabinet painting cost vs. replacement?

Cabinet painting typically runs $1,500–$5,000 for a standard South Bay kitchen. A full replacement for the same kitchen runs $15,000–$40,000+. The finish quality is indistinguishable.
