Thousands of Kitchens Completed — With Personal Care in Every Job
Cabinet replacement is a large expense. Across Washington County, a full kitchen cabinet replacement typically runs between $8,000 and $25,000 or more depending on materials and kitchen size.
In most cases, the existing cabinets are structurally sound and the only issue is the finish or the color. Refinishing and painting address those issues at a fraction of the cost.
The work is completed in days rather than weeks, the kitchen stays functional during most of the process, and the results hold up for eight to twelve years with the right products and prep.
Washington County homeowners, particularly in communities like Canonsburg, Washington, and Peters Township, often have well-built cabinets from past decades that are worth preserving.
Solid wood construction from that era holds a fresh finish and does not need to be thrown out just because the color has aged.
Washington County homeowners work with us because we do the job the right way from the start. That means no shortcuts in prep, no cutting corners on primer, and no rushing dry times between coats.
We use cabinet-grade products from Benjamin Moore and Sherwin-Williams, spray doors and drawer fronts for a factory-style finish, and provide a written quote before any work begins.
We are not a general painting company that takes on the occasional cabinet job. Cabinets are what we do, and every step of our process is built around getting a finish that holds up for years.

Professional spray application
Thorough cleaning, etching, or stripping, followed by complete surface conditioning to ensure maximum adhesion of all coatings.
Multi-stage sanding using professional equipment to remove imperfections and create a smooth, uniform surface profile.
Multiple coats applied using professional turbine spray equipment to build a strong, high-bond foundation for the finish system.
Sealed surfaces are carefully hand-sanded with fine grit abrasives to create a consistent, refined base for final coatings.
Multiple coats of premium, pre-catalyzed coatings are professionally applied to produce a durable, chip-resistant finish built to withstand daily kitchen use.
Every step of our process is inspected — not just the final result — ensuring consistent workmanship and a finish you can rely on for years to come.
Cabinet painting done with proper prep and finish-grade products typically lasts eight to twelve years before needing attention again. The two biggest factors are the quality of the prep work and the products used. We use Benjamin Moore Advance and Sherwin-Williams Emerald Urethane Trim Enamel, both formulated for high-contact cabinet surfaces.
In many cases, yes. Laminate cabinets can be painted when the surface is stable, the laminate is still fully adhered, and an appropriate adhesion primer is used. We assess this during the walkthrough and let you know if the surface is a good candidate before taking on the project.
Proper prep includes removing all doors, drawer fronts, and hardware, cleaning and degreasing all surfaces, sanding to create a profile for primer adhesion, and applying a coat of cabinet-rated primer before any paint goes on. Skipping any of these steps is the primary reason cabinet paint fails early.
Yes, in most cases. Water damage, surface cracks, loose joints, and veneer that has started to lift can all be addressed as part of a cabinet restoration project. The repair work is completed first, then the surface is sanded, primed, and finished. If the damage is too extensive to repair, we will tell you that during the assessment.
Yes. The products we use are formulated for interior use and are applied in ventilated conditions. Once the paint has fully cured, the surface is food-safe and appropriate for a kitchen environment. We follow proper ventilation and protection procedures on every project.
Not when done with the right products and prep. Standard wall paint chips easily on cabinets because it is not formulated for that application. Cabinet-grade paints like Benjamin Moore Advance cure to a hard finish that handles daily contact, cleaning, and normal wear without chipping under regular use.
