3 Essentials to Consider Before Painting Kitchen Cabinets

Aside from offering a way to keep the space neat and organized, the cabinets serve as an important visual component in kitchen design. There are a couple of ways you can improve upon their look, from using new finishes or switching to a different door style. But what’s probably the simplest way is giving them a fresh coat of paint. Before moving forward with the task, there are a couple of things you need to consider. You should, for instance:

1. Deep-clean your cabinets. It’s not the best idea to paint your cabinets while there’s still stuff inside them, even more so when it’s food. Since you’ll be clearing them of their contents in the meantime, take the opportunity to clean your cabinets thoroughly – inside and out – prior to the paint job. Make sure to wipe down any residues or spills that have occurred over time, using a grease-cutting cleanser for the task. Once the paint is applied and has become completely dry, return the items into the cabinets.

2. Choose a cabinet paint color that pairs well with your kitchen design. You’re painting the cabinets not only to hide any wear and tear, but so they can become a focal point in the space as well. White is the classic (and safest) choice because it looks good with both traditional and contemporary kitchen designs. Other neutral colors, such as beige, gray, tan and brown, are also excellent options as they complement the wood, stone and metallic tones inside your kitchen. If your kitchen cabinets are glass-fronted, make sure to also paint the interior cabinet boxes.

3. Work with a professional. Not every homeowner has time to paint their kitchen cabinets or has the DIY skills to perform the task well. For this reason, you should consider hiring a professional instead. Handyman Connection® of Mason is exactly what you need.
