Cabinet Refinishing

Get the look of brand-new cabinets at a fraction of the cost

Transformations Without the Full Renovation Cost

A full kitchen remodel can cost anywhere from $15,000 to $50,000 or more. Cabinet refinishing offers a stunning alternative, providing a fresh, modern look for a fraction of that price. Preserve your existing cabinet structure while updating their aesthetic.

Cabinet Refinishing: Brush & Roll OR Spray — Your Choice

Kitchen and bathroom cabinets deserve expert attention. Native Son Painting offers two professional approaches to cabinet refinishing, each with distinct advantages depending on your project, timeline, and priorities. We'll discuss which method works best for your home during the consultation.

Option 1: Brush & Roll Application

Professional-grade enamel paint applied with precision for beautiful results and minimal disruption.

We use high-quality enamel paint specifically formulated to self-level and cure to a smooth, flawless finish—cabinet-grade durability without spray equipment, extensive masking, or cabinet removal.

Why brush & roll works best for most homeowners:
  • Cabinets stay in place. Your kitchen or bathroom remains functional during the project. No doors removed, no hardware scattered, no risk of damage during reinstallation.
  • Minimal disruption. No extensive masking, no spray overspray, no air handling requirements. We work efficiently with your space as it is.
  • Faster turnaround. Because we're not masking the entire kitchen or removing doors, the project moves quicker and you're back to normal faster.
  • Smooth, durable finish. Enamel paint self-levels as it cures, eliminating brush marks and creating the flawless finish your cabinets deserve.
  • Flexible color and style options. Clean, modern single colors or antiqued finishes that add character.
  • Respects your home. This approach acknowledges that your kitchen is where your family lives—not a construction zone.
Best for: Most residential kitchen and bathroom cabinet projects, homeowners who value minimal disruption, faster completion timelines, and cost efficiency.

Option 2: Professional Spray Application

High-volume spray equipment for the fastest application on large, complex projects.

Professional spray systems apply finish at high speed, making them ideal for extensive cabinet work or when time is the primary consideration. This method delivers consistent coverage across large surface areas.

Why spray works best for specific situations:
  • Speed on large projects. If you have extensive cabinetry or a very large kitchen, spray application covers more square footage faster than brush & roll.
  • Uniform finish consistency. Spray delivers even coverage across numerous cabinet faces without variation, which can be advantageous for high-volume work.
  • Complex cabinet details. Intricate cabinet designs with detailed faces or decorative elements may benefit from spray application for seamless coverage.
What spray requires:
  • Cabinet doors must be removed and relocated
  • Extensive masking and protection of adjacent surfaces
  • Greater disruption to your kitchen or bathroom during the project
  • Longer preparation and setup time
  • Proper ventilation and air handling requirements
  • Higher overall project cost in most cases
Best for: Large-scale cabinet projects, commercial applications, situations where maximum speed is the priority and kitchen disruption is acceptable.

What's Included in Our Cabinet Refinishing Service

Full Cleaning & Degreasing

Years of cooking grease, fingerprints, and grime build up on cabinet surfaces and prevent paint from bonding properly. We start every project with a thorough cleaning and degreasing of all surfaces, giving us a perfectly clean canvas to work with.

Sanding & Surface Preparation

We carefully sand every surface by hand and with detail sanders to remove the existing finish's sheen and create a texture that primer and paint can grip. Any dings, dents, or imperfections are filled and smoothed so the final result looks flawless.

Beautiful enamel paint

Professional-grade enamel paint self-levels to a smooth, factory-quality finish—without spray equipment, extensive masking, or cabinet removal. Your cabinets stay in place, your kitchen stays functional, and you get the flawless result that makes refinished cabinets look brand new.

New Hardware Installation (optional)

New handles and pulls can completely change the look and feel of your kitchen or bathroom. If you'd like to upgrade your hardware as part of your refinishing project, we can install everything so your kitchen or bathroom looks cohesive and polished.
