Cabinet refinishing
Cabinet Refinishing & Cabinet Painting in the Hudson Valley
Replacing kitchen cabinets is expensive, disruptive, and usually unnecessary. If your cabinets are structurally sound, professional cabinet refinishing gives you a new kitchen at a fraction of the cost — with a finish that looks like it came from a factory.
Sprayed, not brushed
A smooth, consistent, durable finish
We specialize in cabinet painting and refinishing for kitchens, bathrooms, built-ins, and vanities throughout Ulster, Dutchess, Greene, and Columbia Counties.
We use professional spray-applied coatings, not brushes and rollers. A brushed door carries brush marks and an uneven film; a sprayed door has an even film, no texture, and a cured surface hard enough to take daily use for years.
Getting there is mostly preparation — and kitchen preparation is its own discipline. Every stage below is itemised rather than summarised because every one of them is where a cheaper job goes wrong.

Premium cabinet enamel in a controlled environment.
06Reinstall and adjust

Modernize or restore
Northern Dutchess and Ulster have had few local options
Homeowners in Rhinebeck, Red Hook, Millbrook, Hyde Park, Stone Ridge, New Paltz, Woodstock, and Kingston can now get professional cabinet refinishing from a local craftsman — no franchise, no long drives from the southern end of the county.
Whether you want to move from dated oak to a clean white or deep green, or restore the original character of your cabinetry, we color-match and finish to your vision.
We work with Benjamin Moore Advance, Sherwin-Williams Emerald Urethane, and other professional cabinet coatings built for daily use. We're based in Saugerties and serve these towns directly.
What it costs
How much does it cost to paint kitchen cabinets?
Cabinet refinishing cost depends on the number of doors and drawers, the cabinet material, the current finish, and whether you're changing color. Typical Hudson Valley kitchens fall in a predictable range.
