Professional Kitchen Cabinet Painting
Cabinet painting is a specialized refinishing service. Kitchens contain grease, cleaning residues and high-contact surfaces, so ordinary wall-painting methods are not sufficient. Labelling, cleaning, sanding, bonding primer and controlled finish application are essential.
Nexa Painting refinishes suitable painted, stained and clear-coated cabinetry. Scope can include doors, drawer fronts, face frames, end panels, crown and fillers. We assess the cabinet material and condition before confirming suitability.

Should You Paint or Replace Your Cabinets?
Cabinet painting can make sense when the layout works and the boxes, doors and drawers are suitable for refinishing. It updates the kitchen's appearance while keeping its existing arrangement. Replacement may be more appropriate when storage, layout or substantial damage is the main problem.
List what you want to change: colour, visible wear, hardware or how the kitchen functions. Nexa can assess the surfaces and explain what painting can achieve before you commit. For a useful comparison, include doors, drawer fronts, exposed panels and trim in the estimate, and confirm how repairs and proposed hardware changes will be handled.

Frequently Asked Questions
How durable are painted cabinets?
Durability depends on cabinet condition, preparation, product selection and normal use. A properly prepared cabinet coating is designed for regular handling but is not impact-proof.
What cabinet materials can be painted?
Many solid wood, MDF and previously finished surfaces can be painted. Thermofoil, laminate, failing veneers and damaged substrates require assessment.
Do you spray cabinet doors?
Removable doors and drawer fronts are typically sprayed for a controlled finish. Fixed frames and panels are completed using the method best suited to the site.
Can old hardware holes be filled?
Often, yes. If new pulls use different spacing, suitable holes can be filled, though some repairs may remain detectable under certain lighting.
How long is the kitchen out of service?
The schedule depends on component count, repairs and curing requirements. We explain access and reinstall timing before work begins.
Can any colour be used?
A wide range is available, but very dark or saturated colours can affect coverage, curing and visible dust. We help evaluate colour and sheen.
