Pantries, laundry cabinets, mudroom lockers, bookcases and fireplace built-ins are primed and sprayed with the enamel we use on kitchen doors. Most of these are fastened to the wall, so we do the cabinet painting where they stand, with taped plastic sealing off the room.
Once a kitchen is painted, the pantry and laundry room often look out of place. In older Streetsville homes there are also built-in china cupboards, window seats and shelving with many layers of old paint. Doing them alongside the kitchen makes the whole house read as one plan.
A built-in cannot travel, so the cabinet painting happens where it stands. The room is masked, the air is extracted, and nearby rooms are covered.
Doors that can come off still go to the booth. The frame, shelves and sides are sprayed where they stand. This gives the same smooth finish as the kitchen. Built-ins with detailed moulding take longer to prep, and that time shows up on the cabinet painting quote.
Laundry rooms have heat, steam and bumps from baskets. Mudroom lockers take boots, bags and sports gear. That wear calls for a tougher coating than most kitchens get.
We often use a two-part urethane for these rooms. It resists scuffs and cleans easily. Edges and lower panels get extra attention, since that is where wear starts. This cabinet painting holds up well even in a busy family home.
Many built-ins in the village core were painted over and over in oil and latex. Old layers can crack or peel when a new coat goes on top.
We test the old paint, check for lead in homes built before 1960, and strip loose layers before priming. A bonding primer holds the new finish to the old oil. Glass doors, old latches and small drawers are removed and cleaned. Our heritage home cabinet painting page explains the full process for older houses.
A pantry with open doors shows its shelves every day. We paint the shelves when the quote includes them, so the inside matches the outside.
Shelves need extra dry time because cans and jars press into fresh paint. We ask you to wait about a week before loading heavy items. Pull-out racks and wire baskets come out during the cabinet painting and go back in after.
Setup and masking are already done for the kitchen, so each extra cabinet costs less when added to the same job. A laundry run of six to ten doors often adds $600 to $1,500.
Built-ins with shelving and moulding cost more per piece. Your written quote lists every room and every item.
Many Streetsville homes have a basement kitchen, a wet bar or a second kitchen for family. These cabinets can be painted in the same visit as the main kitchen.
Basement cabinets are often melamine or builder-grade MDF, so they need a bonding primer. Basements can also be cooler and more humid, which slows curing. We run a fan or a dehumidifier to help the finish harden. Painting both kitchens together costs less than booking two separate jobs months apart. It also keeps the whole house looking like one plan. The cabinet painting quote gives every area its own price, and you pick the rooms.
Tell us which rooms you want included, and we will price each one on the same quote, free of charge. Call +1 (289) 207-0024, send us a list of rooms, or visit our Streetsville services page.
Vanities, pantries, laundry rooms, built-ins and islands are primed and sprayed exactly as Streetsville kitchens are.
We take every door and drawer front down, clean off the kitchen grease, prime for the real material underneath and spray a hard enamel finish. Kitchen cabinet painting recolours every cupboard in the room, and the counters, sink and floor never move.

Older village houses often hold cupboards and built-ins covered in decades of oil paint, and those layers need cleaning, testing and a bonding primer before anything new goes on. Heritage home cabinet painting gives that old woodwork a fresh, hard finish while keeping the trim, panels and shape that make the house what it is.

Oak pushes brown tannin stains up through ordinary primer, and its deep grain shows under colour unless it is filled first. Oak cabinet painting handles both with a tannin-blocking primer plus a decision about the grain before any coat goes on.

Refinishing removes a worn clear coat, refreshes or changes the stain, and seals the wood under a new sprayed clear finish. The grain stays visible, so when the timber is the best feature of the room, refinishing wins over cabinet painting.

Fronts are finished in our clean-air booth, and the boxes on your walls are coated at home inside a sealed plastic enclosure. Spraying lays each coat of cabinet painting down thin and level, so the finish reads smooth with no brush or roller marks.

Shiny factory doors will hold colour after degreasing, a fine scuff and a coat of adhesion primer meant for vinyl and plastic faces. Cabinet painting works on thermofoil only while the vinyl skin is still tight, so we check every door before we quote.

New doors and drawer fronts go onto the cabinet boxes you already have, and the boxes and frames are sprayed to match. On price and on how much changes, it falls somewhere between cabinet painting and a whole new kitchen.

Putting a deeper shade on the island or the base cabinets, with pale uppers above, adds depth to a room without any renovation. Two-tone cabinet painting needs two colours, two spray setups and a clear plan for where each colour goes.

A vanity takes steam, splashes and hand cream every day, so it needs a harder finish and a proper cure before normal use. Vanity cabinet painting is normally a one- or two-day job and a fraction of what a replacement vanity costs.

Condo and townhouse kitchens are usually small, but building rules about elevators, parking, quiet hours and odour shape how the job runs. Condo kitchen cabinet painting sends the doors out of the unit to be sprayed, so the smell and the overspray never reach the shared halls.
See Condo Kitchens
Unused knob holes get plugged before primer, a jig guides every new pull hole, and tired hinges are replaced with the doors already down. Adding hardware to a cabinet painting job costs less than doing it later and gives the whole kitchen a finished look.

We spray one of your real cabinet doors in the shade on your shortlist and hang it back up for several days. Seeing a real sample under your own windows is the safest route to a cabinet painting colour you will still enjoy years later.
See Colour ConsultationWe visit, count every door, check the material and write the scope down for you. You pay nothing for either one.
Tell us about the cupboards, even roughly, and a visit gets arranged by phone. A name and a phone number are enough to send it. To speak with someone now, phone +1 (289) 207-0024.
