Cabinet refinishing is one of the best ways to update your kitchen without the cost or disruption of a full remodel. By repainting or refinishing your existing cabinets, you can completely transform the look of your space while keeping your current layout.



What Is Cabinet Refinishing?



Cabinet refinishing involves cleaning, sanding, priming, and applying a durable cabinet-grade finish to existing cabinet doors and boxes. It’s ideal for homeowners whose cabinets are structurally sound but outdated in appearance.



Benefits of Cabinet Refinishing



  • Costs less than cabinet replacement

  • Faster turnaround (typically a few days)

  • Minimal disruption to your home

  • Modern, custom color options

  • High return on investment




Popular Cabinet Colors & Trends



  • Soft whites and warm neutrals

  • Greige and charcoal tones

  • Navy blue or muted green islands

  • Satin and matte finishes

  • Two-tone cabinet designs




DIY vs Professional Refinishing



Cabinet refinishing requires detailed prep and specialized materials. Improper cleaning, sanding, or priming can lead to peeling and premature wear. Professional refinishing ensures long-lasting adhesion and a smooth, durable finish.



Is Cabinet Refinishing Worth It?



Yes—when done correctly, refinished cabinets can last 10+ years and dramatically improve the look and value of your kitchen.
