Burloak Painting & Renovation

N° 04 · Cabinet Refinishing

A factory-grade finish — sprayed in your own kitchen.

Doors, drawer fronts and frames removed, sanded, primed, and finished in a controlled spray booth. The result reads like cabinetry, not a coat of paint.

Cabinet Refinishing

What You Get

A new kitchen, a fraction of the cost.

For 20-40% of replacement cost, your cabinets look custom-built. Same boxes, same layout — completely different kitchen.

N° 01

Doors & Drawers

Removed, labelled, taken to our spray booth. Sanded, two coats of bonding primer, two coats of cabinet enamel.

N° 02

Frames & Boxes

Hand-sanded and brushed/sprayed in-place. Edges and rails finished to match the doors exactly.

N° 03

Hardware

Removed and protected. New handles installed if you'd like — we can source matching styles.

N° 04

Colour Matching

Benjamin Moore Advance or Sherwin-Williams Emerald Urethane. Any colour, custom-matched if needed.

N° 05

Glazing & Antiquing

Optional aged or distressed finish on raised-panel and shaker doors. Hand-applied.

N° 06

New Doors

Replace just the doors with a new style (shaker, slab, etc.) — we'll source, sand, finish & install.

The Procedure

How we work. Every project, every time.

Refined over 25 years across Halton. No shortcuts.

Full Methodology
  1. 01

    Assessment & Quote

    On-site, we count doors and drawers, inspect material (MDF, oak, maple, etc.), and write a per-piece quote with colour samples.

  2. 02

    Removal & Prep

    Doors removed and tagged. Boxes masked. Surfaces de-greased, sanded, vacuumed and tack-clothed.

  3. 03

    Spray-Booth Finish

    Bonding primer + 2 coats of cabinet enamel, sanded between coats. Cured 24-48 hours before re-install.

  4. 04

    Re-Install & Hardware

    Doors and drawers re-hung, hardware reinstalled or upgraded, soft-close hinges checked. Walk-through together.

20-40%

Of replacement cost

Compared to a full cabinet replacement — same kitchen, dramatically different feel.

10+ yrs

Finish lifespan

Cured cabinet enamel + bonding primer. Stands up to daily kitchen use.

Cabinet FAQ

Common questions.

Yes — oak, maple, MDF, melamine. Each requires a slightly different prep and primer. We spec accordingly.
When properly prepped and sprayed with cabinet-grade enamel, it lasts 10+ years and stands up to scrubbing, water, and daily use.
Mostly yes. Doors are off for 3-5 days while in the booth. Boxes and counters remain accessible.
Not when properly prepped and applied. Bonding primer + 2 coats of true cabinet enamel is the difference between a $200 weekend project and a finish that lasts.
