Transform your kitchen cabinets without the cost of replacement. Professional cabinet painting and refinishing serving all of Toronto, Brampton, Mississauga & Vaughan.
New kitchen cabinets in the GTA can run $15,000–$40,000 or more. Cabinet painting delivers 80% of that visual transformation for 15–20% of the cost — and when done properly, the finish lasts just as long.
The key word is "properly." Cabinet painting is not wall painting. It requires the doors to be removed, thoroughly deglossed, sanded, and primed with a bonding primer before any topcoat goes on. We use alkyd-hybrid or catalyzed lacquer topcoats that cure rock-hard — the kind of finish you can wipe down daily without worrying about chipping or peeling.
We serve all of Toronto, Brampton, Mississauga, Vaughan, Markham, and the surrounding GTA for cabinet painting and refinishing.
Cabinet painting delivers a dramatic kitchen transformation at a fraction of what new cabinets cost.
With proper prep and the right topcoat product, a professionally painted cabinet finish lasts a decade or more.
All doors removed, sprayed in a controlled environment, and reinstalled. Frames painted in place with careful masking of surrounding surfaces.
Two-tone kitchens are enormously popular — island in a contrasting colour (navy, forest green, charcoal) while perimeter cabinets stay white or cream.
Builder-grade bathroom vanities painted to look custom. A one-day job that completely changes how a bathroom feels.
Built-in bookshelves, media units, and storage cabinets throughout the home — all refinished to match or complement.
Often forgotten, always noticed. We extend the fresh kitchen look into the laundry room as well.
Keeping the same cabinets but changing from oak or maple stain to a painted white, grey, or sage — we do full colour conversions.
Cabinet painting done right is a multi-step process. Here's exactly how we approach every cabinet job in the GTA.
We come to your home, count the doors, assess the cabinet material and current finish, and give you a written flat-rate quote. No hourly billing surprises.
All doors and drawer fronts are carefully removed and labelled so they go back exactly where they came from. Hardware is removed and bagged.
The single most important step. Every surface is chemically deglossed, hand-sanded, and wiped clean. Proper adhesion starts here — skip this and the paint peels.
A high-adhesion primer coat goes on all surfaces before any colour — this is what locks the topcoat to the cabinet material for years to come.
We use alkyd-hybrid or catalyzed lacquer finishes that cure to a hard, durable surface — not soft wall paint that shows every fingerprint and chips on contact.
Doors go back on, hardware reinstalled (or new hardware installed if you're upgrading), and the kitchen is cleaned up and ready to use.
How much does cabinet painting cost in Toronto?
A full kitchen cabinet painting job in Toronto typically runs $1,800–$4,500 depending on the number of doors, condition of the cabinets, and finish type. This includes all labour, primer, topcoat, and reinstallation. Compare that to $15,000–$40,000 for new cabinets.
Can you paint laminate or melamine cabinets?
Yes — with the right bonding primer and proper surface prep, laminate and melamine cabinets can be painted successfully. We assess the condition of the material during the quote visit and let you know if there are any limitations.
How long does cabinet painting take?
A standard kitchen in the GTA takes 3–5 days — 1 day for removal and prep, 2–3 days for priming and topcoats to dry between coats, and 1 day for reinstallation. Your kitchen is usable again within a week.
Will painted cabinets chip or peel?
Not with the products and process we use. Properly prepped and primed cabinets painted with an alkyd-hybrid or catalyzed lacquer finish are extremely durable. The finishes we use are designed specifically for cabinetry — not standard wall paint.
Can I use my kitchen during the painting process?
Partially. You won't have cabinet doors for 3–4 days while the paint cures. The sink and appliances remain accessible throughout. Most clients do simple meals or order in during the process — it's worth it for the result.
Do you do two-tone cabinet painting (island vs perimeter)?
Yes — two-tone kitchens are one of our most popular requests across the GTA. Typically a navy, forest green, black, or charcoal island with white or off-white perimeter cabinets. We'll help you pick a combination that works with your countertops and flooring.
We reply within 2 hours. In-home visit anywhere in Toronto, Brampton, Mississauga & Vaughan.
