Airdrie kitchen cabinet painting

Kitchen cabinet painting is a cost effective way to make a big impact on your kitchen without breaking the bank.

Throughout the years it’s only normal for cabinets to show their age, or simply fall victim to modern design.

The good news is that a fresh looking new kitchen is only a paint job away!

With many colors and gloss levels to choose from and an array of specialty wood coatings, it's amazing what a quick paint job can do.

Choosing a company to paint your kitchen cabinets?

Choosing the right painting company to refinish your cabinets can be a daunting task. There are literally hundreds of painting companies to choose from, each having their own way of managing projects and methods of painting.

Not everyone knows exactly what to look for when shopping around for a company to paint their cabinets. The best advice I could give anyone is to talk to a few different companies to get a good understanding of what they are about and what to expect.

Some common questions you might ask while shopping around are:

• What brand of paint do you use?
• Is your cabinet paint KCMA certified?
• Do you use water based lacquer, traditional lacquer, or latex paint?
• How long will the project take?
• What type of prep is involved?
• How much experience do you have?
• Do you spray cabinets off-site or on-site?
• What colors am I able to pick?
• Do you use sub contractors, employees, or are you an owner operator?
• How much do you charge?
• Will there be a harsh smell?
• Do you offer a free color consultation?
• What type of spray equipment do you have?

Any legitimate painting company that knows how to properly paint kitchen cabinets should have no trouble answering any of these questions. Communication is extremely important for any home improvement project, so the first step is to get out there and ask questions!

Our cabinet painting process.

Our cabinet painting process has been systematically developed to provide our customers with the best cabinet painting available. Our process has been standardized so you know exactly what to expect. The first step is to reach out to us for a free estimate and color consultation, next we will;

1. Schedule a project start date that best meets your schedule.


2. Remove all the cabinets, doors and panels for off-site spraying at our shop.


3. Prepare your house for on-site spraying by carefully tarping off and covering everything not being sprayed with masking paper.


4. We will sand, clean and fill damaged pieces as part of the repairing process.


5. Once repairing is complete, we spray a bonding primer, which is built-up to further fill in and smooth out the surface prior to painting.


6. Next we spray multiple thin coats of waterborne lacquer while sanding between coats for a smooth finish.


7. Once finished we clean up and put everything back to the way it was before we started.


8. The final and last step is to re-install the kitchen cabinet doors and boxes. Then it's time for you to enjoy your new cabinets.

What type of paint do we use:

Painted wood has to look smooth and have exceptional durability. Cabinets get used a lot and are subject to wear and tear. Because of this it’s important to choose a coating that not only looks good but durable.

Painting kitchen cabinets requires two types of coatings; primer, and topcoat.

Primer is used to bond paint to a surface and applied prior to painting. When priming cabinets you want the best adhesion possible for a long lasting paint job. We use Sherwin Williams extreme bonding primer for its outstanding adhesion qualities, which can be sanded down to a smooth base coat for painting.

Our paint of choice is Kem Aqua lacquer for its smooth look and durability. Kem Aqua lacquer is made from acrylic polymers and propylene solvents, which make it harder and more durable than latex, and finer than urethane. Kem Aqua lacquer is KCMA certified for kitchen cabinet painting and meets or exceeds certification.

Previous cabinet painting projects in Airdrie:

We were called out to assess and go over a house that required cabinet painting on Coopers Close. This particular project required cabinet painting both on-site and off-site, as well as bathroom vanity painting and some railings and a fireplace mantel painted.

Everything in this house was in good condition; however, the oak was dated and needed some modernizing prior to selling.

All of the cabinet doors and panels were sprayed off-site at our spray shop with pre catalyzed lacquer which is a solvent based coating designed for extra durability. We were able to meet with the homeowner after hours to label and transport all the doors and panels back to the shop for spraying. Once complete we let them sit in the shop on the drying racks to further cure while we got started on the interiors.

The on-site spraying of the cabinet boxes, vanity, and mantel required a little refinishing but overall they were still in really good condition. We sprayed the cabinet boxes with a high build primer to fill in all the oak grains, then finished everything off with Kem Aqua lacquer for a durable finish.

The homeowner decided to go with a different color for the railings because he wanted some contrast between the cabinets and railings. After sanding down and repairing all the damaged areas, we sprayed the railings with the same high build primer that the cabinets were sprayed with, then finished them off with gray pigmented Kem Aqua lacquer.

Once the on-site painting was complete we re-installed all the cabinet doors and boxes, then did a thorough cleaning to ensure the house was spotless.

The homeowner also had the kitchen tiles and countertops replaced; however, that was done by another service provider.
