How Much Does Professional Cabinet Painting Cost?
The cost to professionally paint cabinets is much lower than expected, and definitely lower than how much it costs to replace or reface them. On average, homeowners throughout the nation spend between $400 - $1,300 for a cabinet painting project -- the cost is based on a variety of factors.
Factors that affect the cost of painting cabinets:
- Paint quality and finish (matte, glossy, satin, oil-based, latex paints, etc.)
- Overall surface area to be painted
- Layout of the cabinets
- Size of the cabinets
- Painting method (brush, roller, sprayer, etc.)
