Cabinet Painting
Ottawa
Transform your kitchen without replacing your cabinets. Professional refinishing at a fraction of the cost — with a finish that lasts.
New Cabinets vs. Painting — The Numbers
New kitchen cabinets in Ottawa typically cost $15,000–$35,000 or more installed. Cabinet painting typically costs $2,500–$6,000 for a full kitchen — and when done properly, you genuinely cannot tell the difference.
The key phrase is “done properly.” Cabinet painting done wrong — brush marks, drips, thin coats — looks worse than the old cabinets. Done right, with doors removed, properly sanded, primed with the correct adhesion primer, and finished with a cabinet-specific enamel, the result is smooth, hard, and durable.
The before-and-after transformation on kitchens is consistently one of the most dramatic we do.
