Leah\u2019s Painting Service brings their knowledge and experience to help you make your choice.\u00a0 They have everything from swatchbooks and color binders to sample cabinet doors that you can borrow in your home to help you narrow down a hue.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_accordion_tab][vc_accordion_tab title=&#8221;How long will the painted cabinets last?&#8221;][vc_column_text]Many factors contribute to how long the paint will hold up such as cabinet condition and maintenance. Caring for and cleaning your cabinets properly will extend the life of the painted cabinets. While I can\u2019t give an exact time, many clients I have revisited who have taken proper care of their cabinets are still just as happy with them five or more years later.\u00a0Leah\u2019s Painting Service leaves the remaining paint with the client and has a video for DIY touch ups if your family is extra hard on the kitchen.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_accordion_tab][vc_accordion_tab title=&#8221;What does a typical week look like for a cabinet job?&#8221;][vc_column_text]Most of our cabinet jobs take four to five days to complete. On Monday we remove the doors and drawer fronts and transport them to an off-site paint studio for refinishing.\u00a0 We use a sander and shop vac to sand the cabinet frames so there is minimal dust but more of a noise.\u00a0 After wiping the sanded surfaces, we spend the rest of Monday and Tuesday priming and painting the cabinet frames.\u00a0 The following day or two is spent off-site sanding, priming, and painting the doors and drawer fronts.\u00a0 On the final day, the doors are carefully transported back to the client\u2019s home and rehung on the frames.\u00a0 Any new hardware is installed, and final touch ups are completed.\u00a0 We always wipe down counters, sweep the floors, and leave the room cleaner than we found it.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_accordion_tab][vc_accordion_tab title=&#8221;What if I have knobs on my drawers but I want to switch to pulls?&#8221;][vc_column_text]We can switch from pulls to knobs or pulls to knobs. Just let us know before we start, and we can fill in old holes, drill new holes, and install new hardware.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_accordion_tab][vc_accordion_tab title=&#8221;What type of paint do you use?&#8221;][vc_column_text]We use different products for different purposes. For cabinets we use Benjamin Moore Advance. For other projects we use various Benjamin Moore or Sherwin Williams products.\u00a0 Please reach out if you have a question about a paint product for a specific purpose.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_accordion_tab][vc_accordion_tab title=&#8221;How long does paint take to dry?&#8221;][vc_column_text]Paint usually dries to the touch within a few hours of finishing. However, paint can take a month to fully cure, so we advise our clients to be careful and gentle for at least 4-6 weeks after the job is complete![\/vc_column_text][\/vc_accordion_tab][vc_accordion_tab title=&#8221;What if I have dark rubber toe kicks below my bottom cabinets? Won\u2019t that look bad once it\u2019s painted?&#8221;][vc_column_text]Often, rubber toe kicks do look dated once the cabinets are refinished. I often do end up replacing them with wooden toe kicks painted to match the color of the cabinets. Looking at your color options before work begins can help you determine if you would like to change the toe kicks out as well.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_accordion_tab][vc_accordion_tab title=&#8221;How much does it cost to get an estimate done?
