Kitchen Cabinet Painting & Refinishing in Bloomington, MN
Villa's Pro Painting LLC paints and refinishes kitchen cabinets in Bloomington and across the Twin Cities with a sprayed enamel finish, usually in 3 to 5 days and for 30 to 50% less than new cabinets. Oak, builder white, islands, vanities and built-ins all get the same prep and spray process.
Cabinet Painting vs. Refacing vs. New Cabinets
If your cabinet boxes are solid and you like the layout, painting is the cheapest way to change how the kitchen looks. Refacing and replacement make sense when the boxes are damaged or the layout has to change.
Cabinet painting
Your doors, drawers and boxes stay. We strip the old sheen, prime, and spray new enamel in your color. Typically 30 to 50% less than replacement and done in 3 to 5 days.
Refacing
New door and drawer fronts plus veneer over the boxes. It costs more than paint and is a cabinet shop job, but it changes the door style.
Replacement
New boxes, new counters in most cases, and weeks without a kitchen. Worth it for a new layout or water-damaged boxes, rarely for a color change.
How We Paint Kitchen Cabinets
We spray cabinet enamel. We never brush wall paint onto cabinet doors. Here's what happens in your kitchen, in order.
1. Label and remove
Every door and drawer is numbered and the hardware comes off. Counters, appliances and floors get covered with paper and plastic.
2. Degrease and sand
Cooking grease and hand oils keep paint from sticking. We degrease, degloss, sand, and caulk open seams so the primer bonds.
3. Bonding primer
A high-build bonding primer made for cabinets seals the wood tannins, so oak grain and knots don't bleed through a white topcoat.
4. Sprayed enamel
Thin coats of cabinet enamel go on with a light sand between coats. That's how you get a smooth face with no brush marks.
5. Reinstall and walk through
Once the finish cures, doors and drawers go back on, hinges get adjusted, and we walk the kitchen with you before we leave.
New hardware, if you want it
We can fill the old screw holes, drill for new pull spacing, or swap in soft-close hinges while the doors are off.
Winter Is Cabinet Season
Cabinets are indoor work, so cold weather doesn't hold them up. Book this winter and your kitchen is finished before spring exterior work fills the calendar.
Kitchen cabinets
Uppers, lowers, island and pantry doors, in one color or two-tone.
Bathroom vanities and built-ins
Vanities, bookcases, mudroom lockers and fireplace built-ins get the same prep and spray process.
Trim and doors in the same visit
Pair the kitchen with enamel trim and door painting so the woodwork matches the new cabinets.
