    Painting Kitchen Cabinets: A London Homeowner's Guide

    A Kitchen Transformation Without the Refit

    A full kitchen renovation in London can cost £15,000–£40,000. Professional cabinet repainting? A fraction of that — with results that genuinely transform the space.

    Why Professional Cabinet Painting Works

    Modern paint technology means professionally painted cabinets are incredibly durable. The key is in the preparation and application method.

    The Professional Process

    1. Remove all doors, drawers, and hardware 2. Degrease every surface thoroughly 3. Sand to create a key for the new paint 4. Apply specialist primer 5. Two coats of hardwearing cabinet paint 6. Rehang with adjusted hardware
