You walk into your kitchen every morning and see the same tired, worn cabinets staring back at you. Maybe they’re scratched from years of daily use, or that wood stain just screams “1990s.” You know something needs to change, but the thought of a months-long renovation makes your head spin.
Here’s what most Pleasant Ridge homeowners don’t realize: you don’t need to gut your entire kitchen to get the transformation you’re craving. Professional cabinet painting delivers that fresh, updated look you want—without the chaos, without the massive expense, and definitely without living in construction dust for weeks on end.
When we finish your cabinet painting project, you’ll have a kitchen that feels brand new. The kind of space where you actually want to cook dinner, where morning coffee feels special again, and where you’re proud to have friends over for the first time in years.
We bring over 10 years of painting expertise to every Pleasant Ridge kitchen we transform. We’re not some fly-by-night operation—we’re a family business built on the simple idea that quality work speaks for itself.
Our approach is straightforward: do the job right the first time, treat your home with respect, and make sure you’re so happy with the results that you’d call us again in a heartbeat. That’s how we’ve built our reputation in Pleasant Ridge, and it’s how we plan to keep it.
We understand the unique character of Pleasant Ridge homes. From the historic properties west of Woodward to the charming residences throughout the community, we know how to enhance your kitchen while respecting your home’s original style and craftsmanship.
We start with a thorough assessment of your cabinets and a detailed discussion about your vision. No high-pressure sales tactics—just honest advice about what’s possible and what makes sense for your specific situation.
Next comes the prep work, which honestly makes or breaks the entire project. We carefully clean, sand, and prime every surface because shortcuts here mean problems later. Your cabinet doors and drawer fronts get the attention they deserve, ensuring our paint adheres properly and lasts for years.
The painting itself happens with professional-grade equipment and techniques. We use high-quality paints specifically designed for kitchen cabinets—materials that can handle daily use, moisture, and the occasional coffee spill. Most Pleasant Ridge projects are completed within 3-5 days, meaning you’re back to normal life faster than you’d expect.

Our cabinet painting service covers everything you need for a complete kitchen transformation. We handle the removal and reinstallation of cabinet doors and hardware, thorough surface preparation, professional priming, and two coats of premium cabinet paint.
Pleasant Ridge homeowners particularly appreciate our attention to detail with hardware. We can work with your existing hinges and handles, or help you select new ones that complement your fresh paint color. Many of our clients choose this opportunity to upgrade to soft-close hinges or modern pulls that enhance both function and style.
The reality is that cabinet painting offers incredible value for Pleasant Ridge residents. While new cabinets can easily cost $20,000-$40,000 for an average kitchen, professional painting typically runs $3,000-$8,000—delivering 80% of the visual impact at a fraction of the cost. Plus, you keep the layout that already works for your family while getting that updated look you’ve been wanting.
Most cabinet painting projects in Pleasant Ridge take 3-5 business days from start to finish. This includes removal of doors and drawer fronts, thorough prep work, priming, and two coats of finish paint.
The timeline can vary slightly depending on the size of your kitchen and the condition of your existing cabinets. Kitchens with 15-20 cabinet doors typically fall on the shorter end, while larger kitchens with 30+ doors might take the full 5 days. We’ll give you an accurate timeline during our initial consultation.
Your kitchen remains functional during most of the process. We work efficiently to minimize disruption to your daily routine, and you’ll be amazed how quickly your space transforms.
Professional cabinet painting typically costs 60-70% less than full cabinet replacement. For an average Pleasant Ridge kitchen, you’re looking at $3,000-$8,000 for painting versus $15,000-$35,000 for new cabinets.
The exact savings depend on your kitchen size and the quality of cabinets you’d choose for replacement. But even with mid-range new cabinets, you’re still saving thousands by choosing professional painting instead.
Here’s the thing most homeowners don’t consider: if your cabinet boxes are structurally sound (which they usually are), you’re essentially paying for the same functionality twice when you replace them. Cabinet painting gives you that fresh, updated look while keeping what already works perfectly fine.
Professional cabinet painting should last 8-10 years with normal use and proper care. This assumes we use high-quality cabinet-specific paint and proper surface preparation—both of which are standard in our process.
The longevity depends partly on how you treat your cabinets. Regular cleaning with mild soap and avoiding harsh chemicals will help maintain the finish. Pleasant Ridge’s climate is actually favorable for painted cabinets since we don’t deal with extreme humidity or temperature swings that can cause paint problems.
Most of our clients find that even after 8-10 years, their cabinets still look great—they just might want a color change to keep up with evolving design trends. At that point, repainting is much easier since the prep work is minimal.
Yes, we can paint over existing stain, paint, or even laminate surfaces. The key is proper surface preparation, which is where our experience really matters.
For stained wood cabinets, we typically sand to create better adhesion and apply a high-quality primer that blocks any tannins from bleeding through. Previously painted cabinets need careful cleaning and light sanding to ensure the new paint bonds properly.
Laminate cabinets require special primers designed for non-porous surfaces. While some contractors shy away from laminate, we’ve successfully painted hundreds of laminate kitchens throughout Pleasant Ridge and surrounding areas. The results are just as durable and beautiful as painting wood cabinets.
Pleasant Ridge homeowners tend to gravitate toward classic, timeless colors that complement the area’s historic charm. Whites, creams, and soft grays remain popular because they brighten kitchens and work with various design styles.
We’re also seeing more interest in two-tone kitchens—perhaps navy blue on the lower cabinets with white uppers, or a sage green island with cream perimeter cabinets. These approaches add character while maintaining sophistication.
The best color ultimately depends on your home’s style, existing finishes, and personal preferences. During our consultation, we can show you samples and discuss options that will work beautifully with your specific space and Pleasant Ridge home’s character.
Absolutely. We stand behind every cabinet painting project with a comprehensive warranty that covers both materials and workmanship. If you experience any issues related to our work—like paint adhesion problems or premature wear—we’ll make it right at no cost to you.
