Cabinet Refinishing in Elmhurst

Your Elmhurst kitchen gets a sprayed cabinet finish while the rest of the house stays sealed off from overspray and dust. We refinish kitchen and bath cabinets without replacing them.

Elmhurst cabinet refinishing, sprayed and contained

Spraying gives cabinets a finish a brush and roller cannot, and it takes careful setup inside a lived-in house. Before any sprayer comes in, we remove the doors and drawer fronts, label them and bag the hardware. The cabinets are cleaned, degreased, scuff-sanded and filled, then primed with a bonding primer. A cabinet-grade enamel goes on last, sprayed on the doors and fronts and on the boxes in place.

We work in Elmhurst every week, getting there on I-290, I-294 and York Road, with North Avenue and St. Charles Road crossing town and downtown by the Metra station. Masking is most of the work on a sprayed job: counters, floors, appliances, windows, outlets and the doorways to the rest of the house all get covered. If your kitchen is open to the family room, we build a plastic wall to close it off while we spray. Sanding dust is vacuumed as we go, and the room is left cleaner than we found it.

How we spray and protect an Elmhurst kitchen

Room sealed off

Doorways and open sides are closed with plastic so overspray stays in the kitchen.

Everything else covered

Counters, floors, appliances, windows and outlets are masked before any primer goes on.

Doors and fronts removed

Doors and drawer fronts come off, get labeled and are sprayed lying flat for a level coat.

Hardware bagged

Hinges and pulls are kept in marked bags, or new pulls are set at rehang.

Prep before primer

Cleaning, degreasing, scuff-sanding and filling happen on every surface that will be painted.

Bonding primer and enamel

Primer that grips the old finish, followed by a sprayed cabinet-grade enamel.

How an Elmhurst cabinet job runs

A free estimate at your house lets us see the cabinets, the layout and how the kitchen opens to the rest of the home. The written scope covers each cabinet, the door and front count, the color, the sheen and how we will close the room off. Anything we find later is priced in writing, and nothing extra happens until you approve it. You get the cure days before we start, and when the plastic comes down we walk the kitchen with you.

FAQ

Cabinet Refinishing in Elmhurst: questions

Will spraying get paint all over my house?
It will not. We close the kitchen off with plastic and mask everything that is not getting paint before the sprayer comes in.
Does Elmhurst require a permit for cabinet refinishing?
Painting cabinets in place usually does not need a permit. If the job adds plumbing or electrical work, we check with the city and pull what is required.
How long will the kitchen be partly out of use?
It is partly out of use for several days while the doors cure. We give you the count before we start, and we book around the days we said.
Do you also work in towns near Elmhurst?
Yes. We refinish cabinets in Villa Park, Oak Brook, Addison and Lombard as well.
Are you insured?
Yes. We carry liability insurance and can send the certificate before we start. Call or text (815) 585-1750 to ask for it.
