Cabinet Painting in Salt Lake City

Cabinet refinishing is the single highest-impact interior project across Millcreek, Holladay, Cottonwood Heights, Sandy, and Draper. Kitchens that reach out are usually one of two houses: a 1990s or 2000s Sandy or Cottonwood Heights build with honey oak that reads dated, or a newer Draper kitchen with builder-grade maple that never suited the client. Both refinish beautifully, but oak needs its heavy grain filled for a smooth face, and maple needs a stain-blocking primer. Our writeup on the best paint for cabinets walks through the coatings we actually use.

Two-tone kitchens dominate the requests we see: warm off-white perimeters paired with a saturated island in deep navy, forest green, or warm charcoal. Historic Avenues and Sugar House remodels lean into layered heritage tones with brushed brass or matte black hardware. The finish schedule is built for a sprayed, hand-leveled result on doors and drawer fronts.

Wasatch Front kitchens run dry through long winters and hot summers, and heavy-cooking households push soot and grease onto cabinet fronts long before the finish itself fails. Crews degrease, sand for adhesion, and use a cabinet-grade waterborne alkyd that cures hard enough that soap and a rag do not lift color months later. Cabinet work sequences cleanly with any interior painting already on the scope, and exposed soffit drywall can fold in drywall repair.
