Picture walking into your kitchen next week and seeing cabinets that look brand new. No dust, no demolition, no months of eating takeout. Just fresh, beautiful cabinets that make your entire kitchen feel modern and inviting.
That’s what professional cabinet painting delivers. While your neighbors are spending $15,000-$25,000 on cabinet replacement and dealing with weeks of construction chaos, you get the same stunning transformation in 3-5 days for a fraction of the cost.
Your cabinets don’t just look better—they’re protected with professional-grade finishes that resist daily wear, kitchen grease, and moisture for years to come. It’s the smart way to get your dream kitchen without the nightmare renovation process.
Legends Construction LLC brings over 10 years of painting expertise to Farmington, MI homeowners who want quality work done right the first time. We’re a family-owned business run by two brothers who’ve built our reputation on superior craftsmanship and competitive pricing.
We’ve seen too many cabinet painting disasters—peeling paint, uneven finishes, corners cut on prep work. That’s why we focus on doing every project like it’s our own kitchen. Proper surface preparation, premium materials, and attention to detail that ensures your cabinets look professionally finished and stay that way for years.
Farmington homeowners choose us because we understand what matters: getting beautiful results without breaking your budget or disrupting your life for weeks on end.
First, we protect your kitchen and carefully remove cabinet doors and drawers for proper preparation. This isn’t a shortcut—it’s how you get smooth, factory-quality results that last.
Next comes the detailed prep work that separates professional jobs from DIY disasters. We clean, sand, and repair any damage, then apply high-quality primer designed specifically for kitchen cabinets. This step alone determines whether your paint job lasts 2 years or 10 years.
Finally, we apply two coats of premium cabinet paint using professional spray equipment for that smooth, even finish you can’t achieve with brushes or rollers. While the final coat cures, we reinstall everything with precision. Your kitchen is back to normal in days, not weeks.

Your cabinet painting project includes complete surface preparation, minor repairs, premium primer application, and two coats of durable finish paint. We handle all the details—protecting your countertops and appliances, proper ventilation setup, and thorough cleanup.
Farmington’s climate demands paint that can handle humidity changes and temperature swings. We use cabinet-specific finishes that resist moisture, grease, and daily wear while maintaining their fresh appearance year after year.
You also get our experience working in Oakland County homes for over a decade. We understand local preferences, from the classic styles in historic Farmington neighborhoods to modern updates that increase home value. Every color choice and finish recommendation is tailored to complement your home’s character and your family’s lifestyle.
Most kitchen cabinet painting projects in Farmington take 3-5 days from start to finish. Day one involves careful removal and prep work. Days two and three focus on sanding, priming, and applying the first coat of paint. The final days are for second coat application and reinstallation.
The timeline depends on your kitchen size and cabinet condition. Cabinets needing extensive repairs or multiple primer coats may add a day. Weather and humidity can also affect drying times, especially during Farmington’s humid summer months.
We’ll give you an exact timeline during your free estimate, so you can plan accordingly. Unlike full renovations that drag on for weeks, you’ll have your beautiful new kitchen back quickly.
Cabinet painting typically costs $2,000-$6,500 for most Farmington kitchens, while cabinet replacement runs $15,000-$30,000 or more. You’re looking at roughly 70% savings with professional painting.
The math gets even better when you factor in time and disruption. Cabinet replacement involves demolition, potential plumbing and electrical work, and weeks of construction. Painting gives you the same visual transformation in a fraction of the time and cost.
For structurally sound cabinets, painting delivers identical aesthetic results to replacement. The only difference is the price tag and how long your kitchen is out of commission.
Professionally painted cabinets with proper preparation and high-quality materials last 8-10 years or more with normal use. The key is using cabinet-specific primers and paints designed for high-moisture, high-traffic environments.
We use premium finishes that resist grease, moisture, and daily wear. The satin finish we typically recommend hides minor imperfections while being easy to clean with standard household cleaners.
DIY cabinet painting often fails within 2-3 years because homeowners skip critical prep steps or use wall paint instead of cabinet-grade materials. Professional application with proper surface preparation makes all the difference in longevity.

Very little preparation is needed from you. We handle protecting countertops, appliances, and surrounding areas. You’ll want to remove items from inside cabinets and clear countertop decorations and small appliances.
We recommend clearing cabinet contents completely so we can access all interior surfaces if needed. Some homeowners use this as an opportunity to declutter and reorganize their kitchen items.
If you have any loose or damaged cabinet hardware, mention it during our estimate. We can often make these repairs as part of the project, saving you time and ensuring everything is properly secured when we reinstall doors and drawers.
