Local knowledge

Forest Park Kitchens Have Their Own Charm

Forest Park has a mix of vintage kitchens with original wood cabinets and newer builds with modern materials. Each one needs a slightly different approach.

Wood cabinets with thick buildup

Old varnish and paint layers need extra sanding. We strip them back so the new primer has something to grab onto.

Grease on kitchen cabinets

Years of cooking leave a film that stops paint from sticking. We degrease every surface twice before we sand.

Laminate and thermofoil

Some cabinets are laminate or thermofoil. We use special primers that bond to these surfaces so the paint stays put.

Our cabinet painting process is the same whether you're in a two-flat on Marengo or a bungalow on Elgin. Smooth, sprayed, and ready to use in a few days.

What People Complain About, and What You Get Instead

Almost every cabinet call opens with one of these. Here's the problem on the left, and here's what the cabinets look like when we pack up.

The problem

Brush marks and drips

Hand-painted cabinets with visible brush strokes and runs in the finish.

Paint that chips easily

Wrong paint or no primer. The finish looks good for a month, then flakes at the edges.

Doors that don't close right

Paint buildup on the hinges or door edges that throws the alignment off.

What you get

Smooth sprayed finish

Every door and drawer is sprayed in a dust-free setup. No brush marks anywhere.

Durable enamel that lasts

Cabinet-grade paint with primer beneath it. It resists chipping and wipes clean.

Perfect alignment

Doors are rehung properly with new hardware. Everything closes the way it should.
