Do you like the layout of your kitchen, but don't like the way your cabinets look? Then cabinet refacing might be a good option for you. This mini-makeover changes the style and color of your cabinets in less time than a full kitchen remodel. Add new countertops and a backsplash or enhance your kitchen's functionality by adding an island or in-cabinet organization features. Plus you can still use your kitchen and appliances during the quick 3 to 5 day install.

Cabinet Refacing and Refinishing questions, answered by experts

Technically, you can paint over stained cabinets without sanding. There are specialty paints that are made precisely for not sanding cabinets. However, many interior cabinet paints work just as well. 

To make sure you have a smooth surface without sanding, you’ll need to degrease the cabinets thoroughly, add a bonding coat for strength, add primer, and then finally paint your cabinets. It’s still a process regardless of whether you sand your cabinets.

Yes, remove the old stain on a cabinet before applying a new coat. To do so, clean the cabinet’s exterior with soap, water, and a damp cloth. Then, use sandpaper or an electric sander to remove the old finish. This allows the new coat of stain to soak into the wood fully, lasting longer and creating a richer color.

The cost to paint kitchen cabinets is $900 on average but can range anywhere from $175 to $3,000 for a large kitchen. You can expect to pay between $3 and $10 per square foot for this project. 

The type of paint can impact your total cost. Latex and acrylic paint typically range from $20 to $50 a gallon, but oil-based paints can cost as much as $80 per gallon. Smaller kitchens that are 100 square feet cost between $300 and $1,000 to paint the cabinets, whereas large kitchens of 400 square feet can cost up to $4,000.  

When it comes to painting kitchen cabinets, most professionals tend to use latex paint. However, acrylic paint is also a great option, especially if you're working with wood. Along with the paint type, you'll also want to think about the finish. For kitchen cabinets, the best paint finishes are usually semi-gloss or high-gloss. These finishes are incredibly durable, which is important in high-traffic areas like kitchens. Matte finishes, on the other hand, are less durable.

If you don’t want to sand your bathroom cabinets before painting, it’s possible to make it work. However, sanding the cabinets for a long-lasting paint job is always best. Make sure your cabinets are in good shape, choose high-quality paint, and use a deglosser. The deglosser strips the paint, varnish, or stain from the cabinets to give you a clean slate to work from.
