Frequently Asked Questions

How long does it take to paint kitchen cabinets?

Most projects take 3 to 5 days, depending on the size of your kitchen and the scope of work. We always strive to minimize disruption to your daily routine.

Is cabinet painting worth it?

Absolutely. Cabinet painting is a cost-effective way to update your kitchen without a full remodel. It can increase your home’s value, improve aesthetics, and save you thousands compared to replacing cabinets.

Do you spray or brush cabinets?

We use professional-grade spray equipment to deliver a smooth, factory-like finish. No brush strokes or roller marks—just clean, crisp results that look brand new.

What type of paint do you use?

We use high-quality, low-VOC, waterborne polyurethane or alkyd paints designed specifically for cabinetry. These products are safe for your home and built to last.

Can I stay in my home during the project?

Yes. We use dust barriers and ventilation tools to minimize disruption and odors. You can remain in your home during the project in most cases.

We proudly serve the Chicagoland area, including neighborhoods like Wicker Park, Logan Square, Oak Park, Evanston, Naperville, Cicero, and more.

Do you offer free estimates?

How do I care for painted cabinets?
