Why Choose Cabinet Painting Instead of Replacement?

If your cabinet boxes are solid and the layout works, painting transforms the kitchen for a fraction of replacement cost. There is no demolition, no countertop removal and no weeks without a kitchen. Most Austin homeowners are cooking again within three days.

Our Cabinet Painting Process in Austin, TX

1. Preparation. Doors and drawers are labeled and removed, then cleaned, degreased and sanded.

2. Priming. We apply industrial-grade bonding primer built for kitchen grease and moisture.

3. Spray application. We only spray our cabinets — it is the only way to get a smooth, factory-like finish with no brush marks.

4. Reassembly and hardware. New pulls, knobs and soft-close hinges installed on request.

How Long Does Cabinet Painting Take?


Most Austin kitchens are finished in 2–4 days, and the majority wrap in three days or less. We contain and mask the work area, protect countertops and floors, and clean up daily so your home stays livable throughout.

Cabinet Painting Cost in Austin, TX

Cabinet painting in Austin typically costs $3,000–$7,000, depending on door count, material and whether new hardware is added. Compare that to new cabinets and the savings are substantial. Read the full cabinet painting cost breakdown before you decide.

Cabinet Painting vs. Cabinet Refacing vs. New Cabinets

Painting refinishes the doors and boxes you already own — fastest and lowest cost. Refacing keeps the boxes and installs new doors and veneer — mid-range. New kitchen cabinets replace everything and allow layout changes — highest cost, biggest change. If your boxes are sound, painting wins on value every time.

When to Consider Cabinet Painting


  • Dated oak, honey maple or dark cherry finishes
  • Sound boxes with worn, yellowed or peeling doors
  • Preparing a home for sale or a rental turn
  • A layout that already works and does not need a full remodel

Tyler and team did a great job, we were very happy. We changed out our countertops, repainted the cabinets, and they customized one of the bottom cabinets so we could add an ice maker. Good price and did it in only 8 days!

As a homeowner for more than 40 years I've had more than my share of experiences with contractors and subcontractors, ranging from not very good to exceptional. I'm please to say my experience with Austin Painting and Cabinets was in the latter category--truly exceptional. Within 24 hours of my requesting a quote from APC, Tyler, the business owner contacted me to gather information and set up a time for an on-site visit and assessment. My wife and I were very impressed with Tyler's knowledge, professionalism, and friendliness, not to mention his very reasonable quote, that we decided to do business with him. The crew that he arranged to do the work excellent. They arrived early and went straight to work and worked extremely hard. The quality of the work was outstanding and we were impressed by how careful they were to clean everything up. If you're looking for cabinet painting or any other type of painting work, I recommend you contact Tyler Harden at Austin Painting and Cabinets.

This was the first project in my new home and I solicited multiple bids after going overboard trying to do the project myself. The other contractors would not add the hardware installation and tried to talk me out of the colors I wanted. Tyler and his team at Austin Painting and Cabinets not only explained the entire timeline of the work, but they gave me exactly what I wanted in terms of color, look and hardware, along with guaranteing their work.

When my critical eye spotted a minor issue with the leveling of a cabinet pull, the team stayed around and worked on the cabinet until it was corrected. With the paint taking a while to dry, there were some minor issues that were identified after the project was completed. Tyler and his team quickly rescheduled and came by my home again until the work was completed up to my satisfaction. He and his team were very professional throughout the entire project and took very good care of my personal belongings (ensuring nothing got paint splattered on it).

Not only would I recommend Austin Painting and Cabinets, but I plan for using them again on additional home projects in the near future.
