Updating Custom Kitchens in Prestwick and Old Frankfort

Kitchens in Frankfort subdivisions like Prestwick or Frankfort Square often feature high-quality wood cabinetry that remains structurally sound. Replacing these cabinets is expensive and unnecessary when the existing layout functions well. We provide a kitchen cabinet makeover by focusing on the finish and hardware.

Frankfort

In Frankfort’s newer construction, professional cabinet refinishing removes the heavy, dark wood tones common in early 2000s builds. A clean, light finish allows the kitchen to match modern aesthetic preferences while keeping the original high-quality cabinet layout.

Project Investment

With median home values in Frankfort ranging from $400k to $700k, cabinet painting is a precise investment that avoids the high cabinet painting cost of a full remodel while yielding a significant return.

Local Insight

Many homes in the Frankfort area feature custom cabinetry with unique architectural details that require specific sanding and prep techniques to ensure the new finish adheres correctly.

Common Questions

Kitchen Cabinet Painting FAQ — Frankfort

How much does professional cabinet painting cost?
Our kitchen cabinet painting projects typically range from $6,000 to $60,000+, depending on the number of cabinet doors and drawers, the condition of the existing finish, and the level of prep work required. Every kitchen is different, so we recommend reaching out for a free in-home consultation where we can evaluate your cabinets and provide a detailed quote tailored to your project.
How long does cabinet painting take?
The timeline for cabinet painting varies depending on the size of your kitchen and the complexity of prep and finishes. Most projects are much quicker than a full kitchen remodel, but details like the number of doors, finishes, and layout can affect the schedule. Reach out for a personalized estimate on timing for your project.
How durable is the painted finish compared to new cabinets?
When done correctly with proper surface prep and a quality paint system, a professionally painted finish is very durable. The prep work is what most DIY jobs skip. We sand, degloss, prime, and apply two topcoats with light sanding between coats.
Do I need a building permit for cabinet painting in Frankfort?
Cabinet painting is considered a cosmetic interior finish and generally does not require a permit from the Village of Frankfort Building Department. If your project includes electrical or plumbing changes, those components will require separate permits.
Are the cabinets in my 1990s Frankfort home suitable for painting?
Most cabinets from that era were built with solid wood or high-quality plywood boxes, which makes them excellent candidates for refinishing. We inspect the integrity of the hinges and wood surface during our initial site visit to ensure a long-lasting result.
