Our cabinet refinishing process

Brush marks are the giveaway of a cheap cabinet job. Ours are sprayed. Every cabinet refinishing project follows the same proven system. We pick up your doors and drawer fronts and transport them to our shop, where they are degreased, sanded, given two coats of stain-blocking primer and finished with pre-catalyzed lacquer — sprayed inside a dedicated spray booth and cured on drying racks for a flawless, factory-style finish. On site, we degrease the cabinet frames, mask the open boxes (no need to empty your cabinets), mask the entire kitchen and protect floors, countertops and appliances, then spray the frames inside a sealed spray enclosure with the same pre-catalyzed lacquer system. The result is a smooth, hard-wearing finish built for heat, steam, grease and daily kitchen use — with no brush marks.

A factory finish at a fraction of replacement cost

Cabinet refinishing delivers a factory finish at a fraction of the cost of full kitchen replacement. Replacement means demolition, new cabinet boxes, disturbed countertops, and weeks without a working kitchen. If your cabinet boxes are solid, refinishing transforms them for far less — same kitchen footprint, whole new look. Request a free estimate and we will assess your cabinets honestly and tell you if refinishing is the right call.

Cabinet refinishing questions

How much does cabinet refinishing cost compared to replacing cabinets in Calgary?

Cabinet refinishing typically costs a fraction of full kitchen replacement. New cabinets mean demolition, manufacturing and installing new boxes, and often new countertops, plumbing and electrical work. Refinishing keeps your solid cabinet boxes and transforms them with professional cleaning, sanding, stain-blocking primers and fine-finish sprayed lacquer. Every kitchen is different, so request a free estimate for an exact price on yours.

What products do you use when refinishing kitchen cabinets?

We spray with professional fine-finish airless equipment, apply two coats of stain-blocking primer that seals wood tannins and stops bleed-through, and topcoat with pre-catalyzed lacquer formulated for the wear a kitchen takes — heat, steam, grease and daily handling. The finish is smooth and factory-style, with no brush marks, and it is covered by our 2-year warranty on workmanship.

How long does cabinet refinishing take?

Most kitchen cabinet projects are completed in days rather than the weeks a full renovation demands, and there is no demolition. Exact timing depends on the size of your kitchen and the condition of the existing finish — we will give you a clear schedule with your free estimate.

How much does it cost to paint kitchen cabinets?

Refinishing your cabinets typically costs a fraction of replacing them. The final price depends on the number of doors and drawers, their current condition, and the finish you choose. Send us photos or book a free estimate for an exact quote.

Is painting kitchen cabinets worth it?

In most cases, yes. Cabinet refinishing gives your kitchen a brand-new look at a fraction of the cost of replacement — and quality cabinet paint, properly applied, is durable and easy to clean. If your cabinet boxes are in good shape, refinishing is one of the best-value upgrades you can do.
