Painting Kitchen Cabinets

Instead of replacing your cabinets, respray them for a quick and easy makeover. Our company not only paints kitchens but also repairs and refurbishes old, damaged kitchen cabinets and worktops. Therefore, we can meet your needs whether your kitchen is new or old and in need of a complete renovation. The key to our success is preparing the surfaces beforehand by restoring them to a smooth factory finish. As a leading company in Scotland, our motto is: failing to prepare is preparing to fail.

Kitchen Paint spraying process:

First Day (full working day)

We take all the doors and other elements that can be dismantled to our workshop. It is where we prepare them thoroughly to be painted in a special spray booth to obtain the best possible quality comparable to the factory finish.

Installation Day (after 3-4 working days)

You don’t have to remove anything from the cabinets, only from the drawers and worktops. After our first day of work, you can use your kitchen as before without any problems.

Best paint for kitchen cabinets

J&D Kitchen Makeovers is committed to delivering the highest possible artistic standards. Choosing the right paint is key. That’s why we always use the best quality paint. But what is the best paint for cabinets? The answer is simple – a high-quality, two-part polyurethane paint. When applied to your kitchen cabinets, it provides a durable finish that will withstand everyday usage while maintaining a clean appearance and flawless factory finish.

Best way to paint kitchen cabinets

“Failure to prepare is preparation to fail” is Jack’s favourite saying. At J&D Kitchen Makeovers, we professionally prepare your kitchen units before spraying, degreasing, and repairing any damage, so that after spraying, the surface is smooth. This is the best way to achieve what we call a factory finish.

What can you expect when spray painting your kitchen?

Once all the parts of the kitchen have been covered and refitted you won’t believe the difference it will make to your space. Without having to invest in a new kitchen including replacing floors, worktops or re-plumbing, we will save you time and the need to call in different tradesmen or hire kitchen fitters. Maximum impact with minimum disruption is what we always strive for.
