Utah County Cabinet Painting

Refinishing your kitchen cabinets is the quick upgrade without the pocketbook downgrade

Remodeling your house can give it a fresh, new look while significantly increasing its market value. By itself, a successful kitchen remodel can give you the best return on your home's value. The cost of remodeling your kitchen can be discouraging. But, what can be the greater cost in remodeling your kitchen can also be your greatest money saving opportunity.

Think about the cost

Consider refinishing your cabinets if you're looking for a cost-effective option. According to Houselogic, the cost of refacing your kitchen cabinets is significantly less than replacing them. They report the average cost of refinishing your cabinets as we described to be between $2,500 to $6,000. Houselogic’s Kitchen Remodel Worksheet, however, reports the cost of having new cabinets installed starts at around $6,000 and goes up to more than $16,000. This figure grows to around $25,000 if you include the costs of new counters, sinks, plumbing, and electrical work. 

Yes, you can refinish and customize your kitchen cabinets for less than the cost of replacing them. 

Refinishing your existing cabinet allows you to maintain much of your existing kitchen layout while giving you the option to upgrade their appearance and function. We then refinish them with paints, veneer, or the composite materials of your choosing. 

With a virtually unlimited range of choices for new cabinet styles, colors and finishes in both laminate and natural wood designs. Our design team will work with you to match your preferences with your newly refinished cabinetry and the rest of your existing kitchen layout and design.

Why stop at paint? 

To make the change complete, we can replace the handles, pulls, and hinges. Cabinet doors and drawer fronts can be updated. Accessories like glass panels and crown molding can be designed and installed as well. Your kitchen will not look the same afterwards. 

Cabinet refinishing requires a much smaller time commitment as well. Full kitchen remodels normally take weeks to complete while refinishing cabinets can be done in in two or three days. Once we have your decision on the doors and finish you want, our team can get to work. 

Refinishing reduces waste

In 2018, the US Environmental Protection Agency estimated the nation's landfills contained 24.2% construction and demolition waste. They also estimated 90% was sourced in demolition and 75% of that was wood products. By itself, we might shrug at this number. But if that estimate holds true in Utah—which is first in the nation for population growth and second in the nation for new home construction—you might notice a problem. new home inventories are not keeping up with market demand and older homes are being bought up almost as soon as they hit the market. Most of these homes are fine, but a lot of them will experience some remodeling, adding waste to our local landfills.

Having your cabinets refinished is an environmentally friendly way to achieve a new look for your kitchen. Recovering the existing cabinet frame and interior structure minimizes the demolition and construction resources involved in your project. Less wood is used, less waste is created, and the amount stains and adhesives is reduced.
