What Affects the Cost of Cabinet Painting?

Several key factors can affect the final price:

🏡 Kitchen Size

More cabinet doors and drawers = more material, labour, and prep time.

🔧 Cabinet Condition

Cabinets in good condition require less prep. Damaged or heavily worn cabinets may need sanding, degreasing, or repairs before painting.

🎨 Colour and Finish

Going from dark to light? That may require more coats. Want a high-end lacquer finish? We’ve got that covered — but premium finishes take more time.

✨ Optional Upgrades

Customize your project with extras like:

  • Two-tone finishes

  • Painting cabinet interiors

  • Soft-close hinge installation

  • Furniture or vanity painting

  • Glass panel upgrades
