Finish choices

Keep the layout and change the finish

Worn edges, small chips and dated colors can make perfectly usable cabinets look tired. Sound cabinet boxes are a good place to start, but sticky or peeling finishes need to be checked first.

A new color

Paint changes the color and evens out the look across the cabinet surfaces.

Visible wood grain

A stained or clear finish keeps the grain visible, but it needs suitable wood and a check of the existing coating.

The process

What happens before the last coat

A good refinishing plan gives prep as much care as the final look.

  1. Assess and plan

    Check the material, coating adhesion and repairs, then confirm the surfaces, finish choices and kitchen access.

  2. Prepare the surfaces

    Label parts that come off, protect nearby surfaces and clean off grease, then repair and sand or degloss as needed.

  3. Finish and inspect

    Use compatible coatings with the stated drying time between coats, then check coverage and follow the curing guidance.

What's included

Know what the estimate covers

Price depends on door and drawer counts, exposed surface area, cabinet material, the state of the current finish, repairs and how much the color changes. Hardware handling and access affect the scope too.

Your itemized estimate should list doors, drawer fronts, frames, end panels, interiors and shelving separately. Confirm which surfaces and repairs you want in.

Planning in Alpharetta

Leave time for prep and curing

Atlanta-area humidity can affect drying and curing indoors. Plan around how your household uses the space, and talk through temperature, humidity and access before work starts.

If you take the doors off yourself, photograph each section and label the doors, drawer fronts and hardware bags so everything goes back in the right place. Keep labels off the surfaces being coated. Don't sand or strip old coatings you're unsure about until a qualified professional checks for lead hazards.

Questions about cabinet refinishing in Alpharetta

Can laminate or veneer cabinets be refinished?

They need an assessment and prep suited to the material. Peeling veneer, swollen panels or loose joints should be looked at before a coating is chosen.

How will kitchen access be affected?

Talk about access before work starts. Protecting surfaces, removing components and applying the coating can all limit how you use the room.

When can I clean the new finish?

Follow the curing and cleaning guidance for the coating you chose. Dry to the touch doesn't always mean ready for regular cleaning or heavy use.
