What steps are involved in your cabinet preparation?

Our preparation process involves degreasing, thorough sanding to remove existing sheens, repairing surface imperfections, and applying a specialized bonding primer to ensure the new finish adheres perfectly.

Do you paint the inside of the cabinets or just the doors and frames?

We typically focus on the exterior frames, doors, and drawer fronts to revitalize the visual space. We can discuss specific interior painting requirements during your initial consultation.

How do you protect the rest of my kitchen while painting?

We implement strict site protection protocols, carefully masking off countertops, appliances, floors, and surrounding walls to isolate the workspace and prevent any accidental overspray or drips.

Can you change stained wood cabinets to a solid painted color?

Yes. Transitioning from stained wood to a solid color is a frequent request. Our heavy sanding and priming process effectively blocks the old stain and wood tannins, creating a smooth base for the new color.

Are the paints you use safe for a kitchen environment?

We utilize premium Sherwin Williams and Benjamin Moore products specifically formulated for high-traffic, culinary environments, ensuring they cure to a hard, durable, and safe finish.

How long should I wait before using my newly painted cabinets?

While the paint will be dry to the touch relatively quickly, we will advise you on the specific curing time required for your chosen product before the cabinets can handle heavy, everyday use.

Cabinet Painting & Refinishing

Outdated or heavily worn cabinets can make an entire room feel tired, but a professional refinishing process can completely revitalize the space. Benny’s Painting specializes in custom cabinet work for kitchens, bathrooms, and built-in storage across the Austin area. Because these surfaces see constant daily use, we focus heavily on the technical preparation required to create a permanent bond. We exclusively apply premium products from Sherwin Williams and Benjamin Moore to ensure the final finish remains vibrant and resists chipping. By managing the process directly, our team ensures every door, drawer, and frame is treated with the exact same level of care. The result is a smooth, factory-like finish that easily handles daily wear and the fluctuations of Central Texas humidity.

Cabinet painting requires an entirely different approach than standard wall painting. Kitchens and bathrooms expose surfaces to heat, moisture, and frequent handling, meaning the finish must be engineered for durability. We focus our efforts on the foundational layers, knowing that the quality of the topcoat relies entirely on the quality of the prep work. Every project involves detailed sanding to strip away old gloss, followed by specialized bonding primers that seal the wood and prevent bleed-through. This meticulous approach creates the clean lines and even coverage necessary for high-end residential spaces. From Tarrytown to Steiner Ranch, we deliver cabinet transformations that look intentional and function flawlessly for years.

Achieving a smooth, durable cabinet finish requires strict adherence to a proven process. During the initial consultation, we assess the current condition of your woodwork and map out the necessary steps. The active work begins with comprehensive masking and site protection to keep your home clean while we work. We then systematically sand and repair every surface before applying a high-adhesion primer. Once the foundation is perfectly smooth, we apply the premium topcoats, allowing proper curing time between layers. Following a final inspection and thorough cleanup, your newly refinished cabinets are ready for immediate use. This structured approach ensures a resilient, beautiful finish tailored to the specific demands of your space.

In addition to residential upgrades, Benny’s Painting serves as a dedicated partner for custom home builders requiring high-end cabinet finishing. We understand that builder reputation hinges on the final details, and cabinet surfaces are often the most scrutinized element of a new build or major remodel. Our crews arrive prepared to integrate seamlessly into existing construction schedules, maintaining pristine workspaces and delivering consistent, reliable results. By utilizing premium materials and refusing to cut corners on preparation, we eliminate the risk of callbacks for peeling or uneven finishes. We provide the direct owner oversight necessary to keep large-scale projects moving efficiently across Austin and the surrounding Hill Country.
