Kitchen and bathroom cabinets painted properly. Doors removed, degreased, primed, sprayed, and rehung. Clean, smooth finish that doesn't look like a DIY brush job.
Cabinet painting in Wood Dale starts at $179 for a small kitchen, with most full kitchens running between $1,200 and $2,500. Vanguard Painting does cabinet refinishing right: doors removed, cleaned, primed, sprayed with a smooth finish, and rehung. We serve all DuPage County from our Melrose Park base.
Cabinet painting requires a different approach than walls. Here's what every Wood Dale cabinet job includes.
All hardware removed and labeled so everything goes back correctly.
Kitchen grease removed so paint actually bonds to the surface.
Surfaces sanded to create a surface that paint grips.
Special primer applied so topcoat doesn't chip or peel.
Doors sprayed for a smooth, factory-like finish.
Cabinet frames painted in your home with the same quality.
Original or new hardware reinstalled on your cabinets.
Everything cleaned and we review the work with you.
Cabinet costs depend on the number of doors, drawer fronts, and the condition of your existing cabinets. Here's what most Wood Dale kitchens run.

Wood Dale homes have a mix of cabinet styles, from standard oak to custom maple. Each requires a different approach.
Oak has open grain that shows through paint if not properly filled. We grain-fill oak so the final finish is smooth, not textured.
Smooth laminate needs special prep so paint sticks. We use bonding primer that grips laminate without peeling.
Wood Dale has older homes with custom cabinets that are worth saving. We restore them with a fresh, modern finish.
