Your kitchen cabinets take up a major part of the room’s visual space. When the cabinet finish is worn, dated, chipped, or the wrong color, the entire kitchen can feel tired even when the layout still works.
Genesis Pro Painting helps Westchester homeowners refresh their kitchens with a careful cabinet painting process built around cleaning, sanding, priming, sprayed application, and clear communication from start to finish.
The goal is not just a new color. The goal is a smooth, durable, cabinet-grade finish that makes the kitchen feel updated, intentional, and properly handled.
We clean, degrease, sand, and prepare cabinet surfaces so the coating has the right foundation. Cabinet painting fails when preparation is rushed.
Doors, drawers, and cabinet surfaces are finished with a system designed for a smoother, more refined result than standard wall painting.
From color direction to project expectations, we guide the process so you understand what is happening before, during, and after the work.
Cabinet painting is different from painting walls. Kitchen cabinets are touched every day, exposed to grease, moisture, cleaning products, and constant use. A lasting finish depends on the preparation, the products, the application method, and the discipline of the process.
We remove cabinet doors, drawers, and hardware so each piece can be prepared and finished properly. This helps create cleaner edges, smoother surfaces, and a more professional result than painting everything in place.
Kitchen cabinets collect cooking oils, hand residue, dust, and cleaners over time. We clean and degrease the surfaces before sanding so the primer and finish have the right foundation.
Sanding helps smooth the existing finish and prepare the surface for proper adhesion. Any visible imperfections are addressed before coating so the final result looks cleaner and more refined.
A cabinet project needs the right primer system. We use bonding primer to help create a strong connection between the existing cabinet surface and the finish coats.
Cabinet doors and drawer fronts are finished with a sprayed application for a smoother, more even look than a typical brush-and-roll finish. The goal is a clean cabinet-grade result that feels intentional in the kitchen.
After the finish has been applied and the pieces are ready, we reinstall the doors, drawers, and hardware. Then we review the details so the finished kitchen looks clean, complete, and properly handled.
The cost of painting kitchen cabinets depends on the size of the kitchen, the condition of the cabinets, the number of doors and drawers, the preparation required, and the finish system selected. The right price should reflect the amount of preparation and detail needed to produce a clean, durable cabinet finish.
A larger kitchen with more cabinet doors, drawer fronts, panels, and detailed edges requires more preparation, handling, spraying, drying time, and reinstallation.
Grease buildup, peeling finish, heavy grain, damage, or previous coating issues can change the amount of cleaning, sanding, repair, and primer work required.
Going from dark to light, changing sheen, or aiming for a smoother cabinet-grade look can affect the preparation, primer, number of coats, and application process.
New handles, knobs, hinge adjustments, exposed side panels, islands, crown details, and decorative trim can all affect the final scope of the cabinet project.
During the consultation, we review the cabinets, explain what the project needs, and give you a clear written scope so you understand what is included before making a decision.
Yes, when the cabinet boxes are solid and the process is handled correctly. Cabinet painting can give your kitchen a cleaner, more updated look without replacing the entire layout. The key is preparation, primer, application, and using the right finish system for cabinets.
Not always. If the cabinet structure is in good condition, painting can be a strong option. During the consultation, we look at the cabinet condition, existing finish, doors, drawers, panels, and details to help you understand whether painting makes sense.
Most kitchen cabinet painting projects take several business days, depending on the size of the kitchen, the number of doors and drawers, the condition of the cabinets, drying time, and the amount of preparation needed.
Many laminate, MDF, and engineered cabinet surfaces can be painted when they are properly cleaned, sanded, and primed with the right bonding system. We review the cabinet material before recommending the best approach.
Painted cabinets can hold up well when the work is done with proper preparation and cabinet-grade products. No painted finish is indestructible, but cleaning, sanding, priming, controlled application, and proper cure time make a major difference.
For a smoother cabinet finish, doors and drawer fronts are typically sprayed. Some fixed cabinet areas may require a different application method depending on the layout, access, masking, and project conditions.
