Benefits of Repainting Your Kitchen Cabinets
When your cabinets start to look old or outdated, they can bring down the value of your home. They can also make your kitchen feel unwelcoming or dirty. Kitchen cabinet repainting comes with many benefits, including:
- Avoiding the dust and noise that comes with cabinet installation
- No demolition
- Saving money
- Quicker results than replacement
- No need to relevel or redo your plumbing
- Keeping your kitchen in service
If you have old but still usable cabinets, you may want to save them. Often, older cabinets are of better quality than more recent ones. You can bring your current cabinets back to life with kitchen cabinet finishing.
Are you improving your home before you put it on the market? If so, you need to choose your home improvements wisely, so you don’t lose money.
Replace Your Cabinets or Refinish Them?
While replacing your cabinets is the more expensive choice, it may be necessary. When you wonder whether to replace or refinish, consider:
- Functionality. If the location of your cabinets doesn’t work for you, it may be time to replace them.
- Time. Installing a new kitchen can take months, while repainting may only take a week. Think about how long you are willing and able to live without your kitchen.
- Repair. If you have damaged cabinets, you can typically opt for repair. However, extensive damage may make replacement the cheaper option.
The kitchen cabinet painting cost is worth it if you like the current layout of your kitchen or bathroom. You can always reface your cabinetry and add other functional accessories. If you need advice on the best option for your space, call Idea Painting Company today.

Steps to Refinishing Cabinets
The steps to cabinet refinishing can vary, and so can the amount of time it takes to complete the job. When you look for “kitchen cabinet painting near me” expect us to:
- Clean all surfaces thoroughly
- Spread cloths on countertops and floors
- Find the correct solution to strip your cabinets
- Use a wood filler to repair holes and then sand the area
- Paint the wood your desired color and apply the stain and varnish
Sometimes you will want to disassemble your cabinets before you begin. When you do, label the parts to make sure you put them back in the right place. If you can, do your painting outside or somewhere with proper ventilation.
Stripping the cabinets may take trial and error if you do not know the current finish. Some common finishes include:
- Shellac
- Lacquer
- Polyurethane
- Water-based
- Latex- or oil-based paint
Our team completes the steps of kitchen cabinet painting efficiently and expertly. Call us today for a free estimate and ask us how we can upgrade your kitchen.
How to Refinish Cabinets with Paint
Once you choose a paint color, we come in and do your kitchen or bathroom cabinet refinishing onsite. We use high-quality materials, so our results are:
- Durable
- Long-lasting
- Washable
The kitchen is a busy area in the house. Therefore, cabinets need paint that wears well. Drips from your sink, steam from a dishwasher, and heat from the stovetop can all affect your paint’s finish.
Depending on the surface and your preference, we apply the paint using a spraying method or a traditional brush. Spraying provides a smooth, sleek appearance. If you aren’t sure which method you want, our skilled painters will show you samples of both.
You should always do refinishing work in dry conditions. If you do not have an air-conditioned area, consider scheduling your kitchen cabinet finishing in the winter. Call us for cabinet painting at any time of year.
Talk to an Expert
We understand that sometimes you just want to talk before scheduling a consultation. Our team will gladly answer any of your questions or help you with any of your concerns.

Easton is a town in Bristol County, Massachusetts, United States. The population was 25,058 at the 2020 census. It is part of the Greater Boston area.
Easton is governed by an elected Select Board. Open Town Meeting acts as the legislative branch of the town. The Select Board chooses a Town Administrator to run the day-to-day operations of the town.
History
Easton was first settled in 1694 and was officially incorporated in 1725.
In 1694, the first settler, Clement Briggs, established his home near the Easton Green. In 1711, the Taunton North Purchase area became Norton, and in 1713, the sixty-nine families settled in Easton and hired Elder William Pratt as their first minister. Prior to the settlers’ establishment, the area was occupied by Native Americans as a hunting area and a burial ground. During King Philip’s War, Metacom, also known as King Philip, used part of Easton as a headquarters for his troops. There was no legal parish in Easton until 1722, when the East Precinct of Norton was recognized. In 1725, the area was incorporated as the Town of Easton; it was so named because it was formerly called the “East End” of the Taunton North Purchase and was shortened by pronunciation to Easton. During the Revolutionary War, General George Washington stayed at the Benjamin Williams Tavern on Bay Road, which is now the second oldest existing house in Easton, while on his way to negotiate for cannonballs at the old Perry Foundry in Taunton.
In 1803, the Ames Shovel Works was established and became nationally known as having provided the shovels which laid the Union Pacific Railroad and opened the west. In 1875, the shovel production of the Ames plant was worth $1.5 million. The most notable of the Ames family were Oakes Ames, a key figure in the Crédit Mobilier of America scandal, and Oliver Ames(R), governor of Massachusetts from 1887–1890.
The Ames family shaped the town’s economy, and was responsible for the presence of a number of landmark buildings in the town designed by H. H. Richardson, originator of the Richardsonian Romanesque style and designer of Trinity Church in Boston.
Richardson buildings in Easton include:
- The Ames Free Library (town library)
- Oakes Ames Memorial Hall
- The Old Colony Railroad Station (houses the Easton Historical Society)
- The Ames Gate Lodge (privately owned by the Ames family)
- The F. L. Ames Gardener’s Cottage (privately owned by the Ames family)
Though this school complex was not made by Richardson himself, it was dedicated to him and made in his style:
- H.H.Richardson/F.L.Olmsted Intermediate School
In addition, there is a commercial building at 69 Main Street which was designed and built in the nineteenth century by Richardson’s office in a Richardsonian style. The Richardson buildings are all located within a compact area designated as the H. H. Richardson Historic District. The area also includes The Rockery, designed by Frederick Law Olmsted, who also landscaped grounds of Oakes Ames Memorial Hall and the Ames Free Library.
Within a few blocks of the H. H. Richardson Historic District is Unity Church, built by the Ames family in 1875, and designed in the Gothic Revival Style by architect and publisher John Ames Mitchell. It includes an ornate oak frieze including sculptures of twenty-two angels playing music, carved by Johannes Kirchmayer (1860–1930), and two notable stained-glass windows, “Angel of Help,” and “Figure of Wisdom,” both by John LaFarge (1835–1910). “Figure of Wisdom,” completed in 1901, is the largest stained-glass work created by LaFarge.
Geography
According to the United States Census Bureau, the town has a total area of 29.2 square miles (76 km), of which 28.4 square miles (74 km2) is land and 0.7 square miles (1.8 km) (2.54%) is water. The town, in addition to its own smaller town forest, includes part of Borderland State Park at the northwest corner of town, Hockomock Swamp Wildlife Management Area at the southeast corner of town, and all of Wheaton Farm Conservation Area in the southwest. All of the town’s waterways are considered part of the Taunton River Watershed area, which in turn is the eastern section of the Narragansett Bay Watershed area.
Easton forms the northeastern corner of Bristol County, where the county intersects with Plymouth County to the east and Norfolk County to the north.
The localities of Easton include Alger’s Corner, Daley Corner, Easton Center, Easton Green, Eastondale, Five Corners, Furnace Village, Goward’s Corner, Morris Corner, Morse Corner, Pratt’s Corner. Although there is no official designation dividing “North Easton” from “South Easton,” the terms are colloquially used by older residents of the town even though they have no governmental or legal standing.
Easton is located in eastern Massachusetts. The roughly trapezoidal-shaped town is bordered by Brockton and West Bridgewater to the east, Taunton and Raynham to the south, Norton to either side of its southwest corner, Mansfield to the west, and Sharon and Stoughton to the north.
