Cabinets

Painting your old and worn out cabinets is one of the easiest and most cost-effective ways to upgrade your kitchen.

Many customers have asked us about the cost of finishing their kitchen cabinets. Although the price of painting can vary depending on the condition and type of finish. Generally, it is about 1/4 – 1/3 of the cost of replacing them with new cabinets (Don’t confuse cost of cabinets with complete kitchen remodeling).

Since its founding, Paint Track Painting Services has completed many wood cabinet painting project in Westchester County and the surrounding New York and Connecticut areas.

Our Process

  • Cover up and seal the working area and all surrounding surfaces.
  • Remove door knobs and hardware and re-install.
  • De-gloss all surfaces to be painted to remove the sheen of the old painted/stained surface.
  • Clean the surface with TSP solution to remove oil and grease.
  • Fill up holes, dents, etc. and make new ones as needed if the hardware will be replaced.
  • Sand cabinets to remove bumps and dull the old finish followed by a complete wipe down of the dust.
  • Apply a high quality/high adhesion primer. Sand after drying and then wipe the dust off again.
  • Apply two-three coats of cabinet finish paint sanding between coats. The finish paint can be brushed, rolled, or sprayed – spraying with HVLP sprayer can provide the highest quality finish.
  • After the paint is completely dry, the hardware can be installed.
