Do I paint cabinets before or after installing countertops?

Homeowners have a range of options when it comes to painting their cabinets before or after installing new countertops. We recommend that you hire an experienced professional like New Haven Painters.

Can you paint your walls and cabinets the same color?

You can paint all the same color as your wall to give cabinets and shelves an appearance of space. You just need a little creativity, painting skills, furniture in any desired hue that will match nicely with what you're working on!

How long does it take for cabinet paint to dry?

The paint will be "dry to the touch" after about 1 - 2 weeks, but it needs an additional month or thirty days for curing.

Can cabinet hinges be painted?

Painting your cabinet hinges is possible and will be easy if they're already prepped for paint; just make sure that any hinges being replaced have an attractive nickel finish instead of shining like stainless steel because it's much less likely to rust!

Can you use milk paint on bathroom cabinets?

Milk paint is perfect for giving your kitchen cabinets or vanity that elegant finish you've been looking to achieve. With a variety of colors available, there's no limit on what design ideas can be implemented!

Can you paint over hickory cabinets?

Yes, you can paint hickory cabinets in a variety of colors, but you need to be careful about sanding them. If their surface has any scratches or scuffs—especially if they're deep enough for the bristles on your brush--then it will take more than just one coat before this piece is ready for display!

How much does it cost to paint kitchen cabinets?

The cost to paint kitchen cabinets varies based on several factors, including the size and number of cabinets, the amount of preparation work needed, and the quality of paint used. Larger kitchens with more cabinets, extensive prep work like sanding and priming, and high-quality, durable paints can all increase the price. Labor costs also play a role, with detailed work such as removing and reinstalling doors and hardware adding to the overall expense. Custom finishes or additional detailing can further affect the cost. Contact us at New Haven Painters, LLC for a free personalized estimate.

Professional cabinet painting in milford, ct

Lifetime Warranty

We use a speciality cabinet product from Italy called Milesi. This is a two part epoxy that is water resistant, chemical resistant and looks as good as a factory finish.

Our two cabinet painters Cody and Robert do nothing, but cabinet painting every week (sometimes they also paint furniture).

They came from a custom cabinet building family and fell in love with our system and process years ago.

Trust the best. We would never have an average house painter touch your cabinets!

Benefits of Painting Your Cabinets

Your kitchen is the room you spend the most time in and because of that, it’s likely the room you want to change the most. Unfortunately, kitchen renovations can become very pricey, very quickly. Luckily, there are ways to completely change the look of your kitchen at a very affordable price. Read more about the benefits you will reap when you choose to paint your cabinets.

Increase the value of your home. Kitchens sell homes. A prospective buyer is not going to be interested in buying a home with a dark, old, and dingy-looking kitchen, so the best way to brighten and clean up the space, and ensure a sale, is repainting the cabinets.

Save money. Painting the cabinets in your kitchen is a much more affordable way to elevate, modernize, and update your home as opposed to a full renovation.

Save time. A full kitchen renovation can take up to 12 weeks depending on what you want done, and most people aren't able to give up the use of their kitchen for 12 weeks . However, with a simple kitchen cabinet painting, it can be done in just a week.

Preserve the condition of your cabinets. If you love the look of your current cabinets, why change them? All you have to do to make the space feel like new is simply choose a new coat of paint.

Be green. Did you know? Repainting your cabinets as opposed to a full renovation is great for the environment!

Why I Shouldn’t Hire an Average House Painter

Painting your cabinets is a big project that requires quite a bit of work. From properly preparing your cabinets to ensuring that you apply the paint evenly, there are a lot of steps involved in painting cabinets. One simple mistake, such as forgetting to sand/clean prior to painting or using the wrong materials on already stained cabinets, can cause your paint job to turn out poorly. Additionally, unless you have a lot of experience with painting, it's likely that your paint job will not turn out as professional looking as you might hope. If your goal is to have cabinets that look like they were done by a professional, it's best to hire a professional painting company such as New Haven Painters. With over 5 years of experience, our company can provide you with the high quality, professional paint job that you're looking for.
