Kitchen Cabinet Painting: Is It a Good Idea?
Posted on July 23, 2019
The kitchen is one of the most important rooms of a house. It’s where food that nourishes our body, mind and soul is prepared, and it’s where loved ones gather. The way a kitchen looks influences how people feel inside of it, and that’s why many people ask if kitchen cabinet painting is a good idea.
About Kitchen Cabinet Painting
Kitchen cabinet painting is the act of painting kitchen cabinets. The kitchen cabinet painter takes the desired color and paints the cabinets with it.
If the color on the cabinets is too dark compared to the color that is being paint, the painter may have to prime the wood first. This will give the painter a blank slate, which will ensure the color turns out to be the one that the customer wants.
Painting isn’t the only thing that can be done to kitchen cabinets, though. They can also be stained. Those who have stained kitchen cabinets may prefer to re-stain the same color or a different one. The choice depends on what you would like the kitchen to look like afterwards.
Is It a Good Idea?
Yes. Absolutely. It is a good idea to paint kitchen cabinets or stain them instead of buying brand new ones. It saves A LOT of money.
Even if some of the cabinets are broken, it’s easier and cheaper for us to fix the wood than for you to buy brand new ones. And yes, we did say we can fix them. We do offer light carpentry services, so we will repair the wood. We actually prefer this because the paint job will look so much better if the wood isn’t cracked, rotted, or otherwise damaged.
DIY Kitchen Cabinet Painting
You could paint your kitchen cabinets yourself, but we don’t recommend it. We can’t tell
you how many times people have come to us saying that they started to paint their cabinets, but they just don’t look good. Some people will say that it’s just taking too long, and they really don’t want to continue.
The problem is that they already started, and that means they already bought the paint (sometimes the wrong kind for kitchen cabinet painting) and tools. This is wasted money and of course all that wasted time.
It’s really best to leave it to the professional – the kitchen cabinet painters of CertaPro Painters® of Charlotte-Matthews. Our team of professional kitchen cabinet painters have the:
