Major Kitchen Cabinet Refresh in Brentwood, TN

Planning and Preparation

Before starting the project, our team met with the homeowner to discuss their vision and inspect the existing cabinets. This step is crucial as it helps ensure that the new paint adheres properly and lasts longer. We assessed the condition of the cabinets and decided that a thorough cleaning and sanding were necessary to prepare the surfaces for painting.

Choosing the Right Paint

Selecting the right type of paint is critical for kitchen cabinets due to their frequent use and exposure to moisture and temperature changes. We opted for a high-quality, durable paint that is designed to withstand the rigors of kitchen activity. The homeowner chose a satin finish, which is easier to clean and provides a slight sheen that enhances the room’s aesthetics.

The Painting Process

The actual painting process began with the careful removal of all cabinet doors and hardware. Each piece was labeled to ensure it would be returned to its original position. Our team applied a primer to help the topcoat adhere better and prevent peeling. After priming, several coats of white paint were applied, allowing sufficient drying time between coats to ensure a smooth, even finish.

Quality Checks and Final Touches

Throughout the painting process, our team performed multiple quality checks to ensure that the coverage was even and that no spots were missed. After the final coat of paint had dried, we reattached the doors and hardware, adjusting alignments for a perfect fit and finish. The project concluded with a thorough cleanup, leaving the kitchen spotless and ready for use. The transformation was dramatic. The vibrant white cabinets instantly made the kitchen feel larger, brighter, and more inviting. The homeowner was thrilled with the result, noting how the new color brought a fresh energy to the space and made it feel more contemporary.
