Repainting Kitchen Cabinets
Kitchen cabinets typically began to show their age in 8-10 years depending on how much the kitchen gets used. Kitchens then began to get outdated after 10 years. Most of us are not in the position to do a major kitchen remodel every 10 years, so another option is to either refinish or paint your kitchen cabinets. As long as your kitchen cabinets are in decent shape painting them can make them look brand new if done properly.
Painting Cabinets
Painting the cabinets a certain color and updating the hardware is the least expensive option in most cases. Typically what we recommend is updating the hinges and hardware at the same time. Sometimes updating the hinges requires a little bit of extra work from our carpenter, but it is still a fraction of the cost compared to getting all new cabinets. We also spray our cabinets with a very durable finish that will last for at least 10 years.
Refinishing or Staining Cabinets
If your current cabinets are already stained but you are tired of the stain color selected, you can have us strip and refinish the cabinets too. Once the old stain has been removed, and depending on the type of cabinets you have (Maple, Oak, Walnut etc) you can decide on a new and updated stain that will work well with your current design taste. Stripping cabinets involves more labor than just painting the cabinets. However, even stripping cabinets is still more cost effective than doing a full kitchen remodel.
George Apap Painting owns HPM, a full-service remodeling and carpentry company in Patterson, NY. We can fully remodel your kitchen. However, if you are looking for a more cost-effective approach, our painters would be more than happy to repaint or refinish your kitchen anytime.
