Pantry, laundry and built-in work covers cabinetry that cannot travel to a booth, from walk-in pantries and laundry or mudroom runs to fireplace wall units, mantels and bookcases, every piece sprayed in place inside a sealed enclosure.
Homes built in Holly, Ardagh, Painswick South and Innisfil's newer streets since 2000 almost all have a mudroom or laundry run and a built-in beside the family room fireplace, installed in the kitchen's finish. Painting them with the kitchen pulls the whole main floor into one colour.
A wall unit is screwed to the wall and often the ceiling, so its cabinet painting happens where it stands. Floor, walls and openings get masked with plastic and tape, doors and loose shelves come down and travel to the booth, and the carcass gets cleaned, sanded, primed and sprayed where it stands. A window carries ventilation. The masking comes off the same day the final coat has flashed.
On-site spraying done well leaves no overspray on the floor or the walls and no smell after a day. The cabinet spray painting page explains the containment and the thin-coat method that make it possible in a lived-in house.
A walk-in pantry and a laundry run usually get painted on the same days as the kitchen boxes, since the sprayer and plastic are already in the house. Their doors ride to the booth alongside the kitchen's and return with them. Added to a kitchen, pantry and laundry cabinet painting is priced by door count toward the bottom of the $130 to $250 per-door band. Alone, a laundry or mudroom run is usually one day plus a return visit for the doors.
Laundry cabinets often carry detergent residue and dryer film that ordinary cleaning misses, so degreasing here is thorough. Melamine laundry cabinets, which are common, take the same bonding primer covered on the thermofoil and melamine page.
A fireplace built-in is the wall the family room faces, so it is often painted a shade darker or a different colour from the kitchen. Charcoal, deep green and black are common on wall units in Barrie's newer homes, with the mantel and shelves in the same colour. Built-in cabinet painting on these pieces is careful work around the firebox, the television cutout and any wiring, and the heat from a gas insert means the mantel gets a hard 2K polyurethane rather than an enamel that could soften.
Bookcases with adjustable shelves have the shelves sprayed in the booth and the case sprayed on site, so every surface gets the same finish.
One wall unit is usually a day of on-site work plus a return visit for doors and shelves. A pantry, laundry run and wall unit together take two days. The finish cures like any other cabinet painting, touch-dry within hours and ready for normal use after about a week, with books and laundry baskets going back after that. Each piece gets its own line on the written quote so a mantel can be added or dropped without disturbing the rest.

Pantries, laundry runs and fireplace built-ins are the cabinet painting jobs that complete a main floor, and spraying them in place inside an enclosure is how they end up matching the kitchen.
Prep, primer and a sprayed coating of the very same kind go onto whatever other cabinets a house holds.
Kitchen cabinet painting starts with the doors, the drawer fronts and the boxes already in the house, cuts the grease and old sheen off them, primes each for its material and sprays on a new colour that cures hard enough for everyday use.

Tannins in golden oak get sealed under shellac before anything else happens. Filler then closes the open pores until they disappear, and sprayed colour finishes doors that were solid all along. Oak cabinet painting suits them well.

Cabinet spray painting is sprayed cabinet painting: primer and topcoat go on as a fine mist in thin, even passes, so doors and boxes finish with a smooth, level film free of brush ridges, roller stipple and thick edges that chip.

Thermofoil, melamine and laminate doors take paint only over a bonding primer made to grip slick factory surfaces, followed by a sprayed topcoat, which lets doors that would otherwise shed ordinary paint within months hold a new finish instead.

Two-tone work puts one colour on the perimeter cabinets and another on the island or lower run, giving a plain kitchen depth and a focal point without buying a single new cabinet.

Cabinet refinishing leaves the wood on display: the worn finish gets stripped or sanded away, fresh stain goes on where the colour is shifting, and instead of paint the doors get sealed beneath a sprayed clear coat.

Refacing means fresh doors and drawer fronts hung on boxes worth keeping, while a single damaged door simply gets swapped for a new one; old and new then pass through one booth together so nothing looks different.

Cottage kitchen cabinet painting deals with knotty pine that bleeds through paint, small kitchens that need to stay usable, and buildings that are cold and closed for half the year, by using shellac primer and timing the work for the warm months.

Hardware and hinge work fills old handle holes, drills fresh ones on a template once the finish has cured, and swaps tired self-closing hinges for soft-close ones, so new pulls and quiet doors arrive with the new colour.

Bathroom vanity painting brings the kitchen routine of degreasing, priming and a sprayed topcoat to the small cabinet under the sink, over one or two days, paying extra attention to the doors that sit closest to the water.

Small galleys, building rules, elevator bookings and parking are what condo kitchen cabinet painting has to manage, so doors go out for spraying and the unit stays livable while the boxes take a day or two.

A cabinet colour consultation fixes the colour and sheen ahead of cabinet painting by spraying one of your own doors in the real product and leaving it in the kitchen, so the decision gets made under the room's own light.
See Colour ConsultationWe visit, count the doors, work out the material and write the quote up, at no charge and with no obligation.
Tell us about the kitchen in whatever detail you have and a call follows to arrange the visit. The form goes through as soon as it has your name and a phone number on it. When a call is simpler, dial +1 (705) 230-7220.
