Cabinet Painting · Redwood City, CA
Kitchen cabinet painting in Redwood City
Cabinets take more abuse than any wall. Hands, steam, grease and banging doors mean the finish has to bond hard and stay smooth.
That comes down to prep. Every surface is degreased and sanded, then primed with a primer made to grip slick finishes, before the color coats.

Questions people ask
Is painting cabinets cheaper than replacing them?
Yes, by a wide margin in most kitchens. If the cabinet boxes are solid, painting gives you a new look for a fraction of the cost of new cabinets.
Will painted cabinets chip?
Good prep and a cabinet-grade finish make a hard, durable surface. Most chipping comes from skipping the sanding or the bonding primer.
Can I use my kitchen while you work?
Mostly, yes. Doors and drawers are worked on in stages, and Abel will tell you which days the kitchen will be busiest.
