Cabinet Painting Marietta

What's the average cost to paint kitchen cabinets in Marietta?

A standard kitchen with up to 15 doors is $3,500-$5,500. For 15-30 doors, the range is $5,500-$8,000; for 30+ doors, $8,000-$12,000. Bathroom vanities are $800-$1,500. Door count, condition, surface type and any add-ons affect your price. We assess your cabinets and give you a fixed written quote before you commit.

How long does cabinet painting take?

Most kitchens take 3-5 days, including preparation, spraying and reinstallation. The doors cure off-site, and your kitchen stays usable. Painting the inside surfaces is an optional add-on that can add a few days.

Is it worth it to have cabinets professionally painted?

It can be, if the cabinet boxes are structurally sound and you like the layout. Painting gives your cabinets a new look while keeping the layout and countertops. We check the condition during your kitchen assessment so you can decide whether refinishing fits the change you want.

What kind of paint do professionals use on cabinets?

We use Benjamin Moore Advance or Sherwin-Williams ProClassic. These self-leveling enamels give the doors and frames a smooth finish without brush marks. Degreasing, sanding and bonding primer come first so the paint has a prepared surface to bond to.

How long does professional cabinet painting last?

Properly prepared painted cabinets last 8-10 years with normal use. Your project also includes a 5 to 10-year written warranty on workmanship and product, delivered at the final walkthrough.

Can you paint cabinets without removing them?

The boxes stay in place. We remove the doors and hardware, spray the doors off-site, then rehang and align them after curing. Frames are carefully masked and sprayed in your kitchen. Your layout and countertops stay as they are.

Do you paint the insides of cabinets?

Yes, as an add-on. The standard scope covers the exterior faces, doors and drawer fronts. Painting inside the cabinets increases the price and can add a few days. Tell us which surfaces you want included during the assessment so they appear in your written proposal.

Do I need to empty my cabinets before painting?

Yes. Empty the cabinets to protect your belongings from dust and paint particles. Your crew explains the schedule before arriving so you can plan around it.

What if I am not happy with the result?

Walk the cabinets with your crew lead and point out anything that needs attention. Touch-ups are handled before the crew leaves, and you sign off only when you are satisfied. Your written warranty covers workmanship and product after the job is complete.

Can you paint laminate cabinets?

Yes. Laminate needs a bonding primer made for non-porous surfaces. We confirm the material during the assessment and adjust the preparation before spraying.

What happens to the cabinet hardware?

We remove the hardware before preparation and reinstall it after the coating cures, then align and adjust the doors. If you want replacement hardware, discuss it at the assessment so it is included in the scope and price.

My East Cobb kitchen has over 40 oak cabinet doors. How long will the project take?

A 40-to-50 door kitchen in East Cobb typically takes five to six working days. Day one is door removal, labeling, and face frame prep. Days two through four are spray application of primer and finish coats on the doors while the face frames are painted in place. Day five is reinstallation and hardware. Larger projects with a butler's pantry or laundry may extend to seven days.

Are the cathedral-top cabinet doors in my Marietta home harder to paint than flat doors?

They require more skill but produce beautiful results. The curved upper rail on cathedral doors tends to collect paint if sprayed too heavily, causing drips along the arch. Our technicians use adjusted spray settings for profiled doors, with lighter fluid output, tighter fan pattern, and additional passes to build a smooth, uniform coat that follows the curve without pooling.

Should I paint my Marietta kitchen cabinets or replace them?

If your oak or maple cabinets are structurally sound, and in most East Cobb homes they are, painting is the clear winner. Cabinet replacement in a large Marietta kitchen runs $15,000 to $30,000 or more when you factor in demolition, new boxes, countertop refitting, and plumbing. Professional cabinet painting delivers a factory-fresh look at roughly one-third that cost, and the solid wood construction you already have is often better quality than what comes in new stock cabinet lines.
