In most kitchens, the cabinets take a bulk of the wall space.  Painting your kitchen cabinets in Miami can quickly change the look of the room without busting the bank.  If you also include new hardware and a backsplash, now we are talking about a significant transformation!  And while most kitchen remodels come with a $40,000 price tag, we can make these impactful changes for around $5,000!

If you choose to do the work yourself, you will save even more, but painting kitchen cabinets is kind of like hitting a golf ball.  It’s not as easy as it looks. 

Common Mistakes When Painting Kitchen Cabinets in Miami

First, getting the paint not to scratch off in a few short months requires more than cleaning and priming.

Secondly, most paints just don’t self-level, so the brush strokes are not visible.  If you want to have a factory finish, you will either need to use cabinet-grade paint and spray or add a latex conditioner when brushing.  

It’s not rocket science to get the kitchen cabinets to have a showroom finish, but it isn’t easy if you have never done it.

Having the paint scratching off or having a rough textured look on your kitchen cabinets makes hanging out in the kitchen a little less enjoyable.

In the picture on the far right,  the paint started to scratch after ten short months.  At Klappenberger & Son, we follow best practices that eliminate these issues – guaranteed.

Why Is Painting Kitchen Cabinets Difficult?

It can be boiled down to two main reasons: 

First, most cabinets come out of the factory with a lacquer finish.  While many primers stick to lacquer for a while, once the oil from our hands penetrate the paint and reach the lacquer finish, the paint scratches off easily. 

Secondly, to get the kitchen cabinets to a factory finish, it is best to spray.  The second best way is to brush with cabinet-grade paint and add a latex conditioner. 

FYI – buying a DIY sprayer will not give you the same results.  The cheap sprayers don’t have the necessary pressure to put the paint out, and the result will be an orange peel effect. 

Painting Kitchen Cabinets & Vanities

Painting kitchen cabinets in Miami is a great way to transcend your kitchen for a fraction of the cost of replacing them.  

I believe adding a backsplash plus painting your kitchen cabinets can have a dramatic effect.  I’ve seen it so many times, and usually the cost is under $5,000.00.  

In addition, with over 30 years of experience painting kitchen cabinets, we offer two things that most companies cannot say.

First, your newly painted kitchen cabinets’ quality has a smoothness similar to a factory finish.

Secondly, we offer a 5-year warranty when you have your kitchen cabinets or vanities painted.  No other painting contractor offers such a generous warranty.  Why do we?

The short answer is experience and product knowledge.  For example, we use the proper primers and topcoats.
