Pantry units, laundry uppers, mudroom lockers and fitted shelving receive kitchen-grade primer and sprayed enamel. Adding them to kitchen cabinet work lowers the cost per cabinet and makes the whole house match.
Erin Mills detached houses and bigger semis commonly include a tall fridge-side pantry, laundry cupboards upstairs or down, and family-room shelving. Once the kitchen is painted, these older cabinets stand out.
Pantries, built-in bookcases and wall units are usually fixed to the wall or built into the room. The doors come off and go to the booth like kitchen doors. The frames and shelves are sprayed in place behind plastic sheeting.
We cover floors, walls and nearby furniture and run a fan to move air outside. The same low-odour waterborne products used on kitchen boxes go on these cabinets too.
Laundry cabinets get damp air from the dryer, spills from detergent and bumps from baskets. Mudroom lockers get kicked by boots and loaded with hockey bags and backpacks. These cabinets need a harder finish than a bedroom shelf.
We suggest a two-part polyurethane or a hard enamel with an extra coat on the edges and bottom shelves. That extra protection helps the cabinet painting last in the busiest rooms of the house.
The inside of a pantry has many shelves and a lot of surface. Painting the interior can almost double the sprayed area. Some people paint only the doors and frames, while others want the shelves done too.
Your written quote lists interiors as a separate line, so you can decide. The kitchen cabinet painting page explains how interiors are handled in the kitchen as well.
Every job has setup costs: travel, protection, spray equipment and cleaning. Doing those rooms during the kitchen job spreads such costs across more cabinets. That makes each extra cabinet cost less than it would on its own.
A single colour across the kitchen, pantry and laundry also gives the house a finished look.
Detached homes in Erin Mills often have built-in bookcases around a fireplace or a wall unit in the basement. These were often stained oak or pine when the homes were built. Cabinet painting can bring them up to date to match a newly painted kitchen.
Built-ins are sprayed in place, like kitchen boxes. We cover the fireplace, floors and furniture, remove the doors for booth spraying and coat the frames and shelves in the room. Oak and pine built-ins need a stain-blocking primer, just like an oak kitchen.
A painted built-in can match the kitchen colour or use a softer shade of it. We can include a sample door for the built-in in the same colour visit.
List any extra rooms and we will count and price them during one visit, with the figure written up free. Phone +1 (289) 206-9908, add the rooms online, or return to our home page.
The bathroom vanity, the laundry uppers and the hall shelving in a South Common town get the kitchen's exact coating system.
Kitchen cabinet painting puts fresh colour and a tough sprayed coat on the cabinets you already own, with counters, sink and boxes left in place. Doors come off, get cleaned, sanded and primed for their material, then return with two or three smooth coats.

Townhouse kitchens are compact, usually galley or L-shaped, and the cabinet painting work has to fit around shared walls, visitor parking and condo complex rules. The boxes stay in place, the doors leave for spraying, and the family keeps cooking.

Oak cabinet painting begins with shellac primer, which locks brown tannin inside the wood so it never stains your new colour. After that, deep pores are either packed flat with filler or allowed to show as soft texture.

Cabinet refinishing keeps the wood grain in view by stripping or sanding the old clear coat, adjusting the stain and spraying a fresh protective finish. It is the right choice over paint when the wood itself is worth showing.

Cabinet spray painting lays down thin, level coats of hard enamel that dry without brush marks or roller texture. In our cabinet painting work, doors get sprayed in a filtered booth and the boxes get sprayed at home behind plastic sheeting.

Glossy factory fronts accept new colour after hand scuffing and an adhesion primer built for plastic faces. Peeling thermofoil is different, so we strip or swap those fronts before cabinet painting starts.

Cabinet refacing hangs brand-new fronts on the boxes you keep, and those boxes get coated or skinned to match. It suits kitchens where the boxes are solid but the doors are damaged, dated in shape or too worn for cabinet painting alone.

Two-tone cabinet painting uses a darker colour on the island or lower cabinets and a lighter colour above. An island-only job brings in colour while leaving everything else alone.

A bathroom vanity gets the same degreasing, primer and sprayed enamel as a kitchen, with extra care for moisture and steam. No cabinet painting job in your home is smaller, and one or two days usually covers it.

Condo kitchens are small, and the cabinet work schedule has to follow building rules for elevators, loading and working hours. The doors leave the unit for spraying, so odour stays low and the kitchen keeps working.
See Condo Kitchens
Fresh pulls, knobs and quiet hinges complete a painted kitchen, and fitting them goes quickest with every front already down. Before cabinet painting, unused pull holes are packed and sanded so no trace survives under the colour.

Choosing a colour is easier with a real sprayed door in your kitchen than with a small paint chip. We spray a sample in the colour you are considering and leave it in your room so you can see it in your own light before the cabinet painting starts.
