Charlotte kitchens we see most

South Charlotte has a huge stock of 1995–2010 homes with builder-grade maple and oak cabinets in honey or cherry stains. They are usually solidly built and perfect candidates for painting. In older Charlotte neighbourhoods (Myers Park, Dilworth, Plaza Midwood) we see original painted wood cabinets that need proper prep, repair and a fresh sprayed finish rather than replacement. Newer Ballantyne and Providence homes often want a two-tone update: a navy, green or charcoal island with a white or greige perimeter.

Our Charlotte cabinet painting process

1. Free estimate, written price, colour help with sprayed sample doors.
2. Doors and drawer fronts removed, numbered and taken to our Monroe shop for spraying.
3. Degrease, sand, repair, grain-fill (oak), bonding primer.
4. Two coats of professional cabinet enamel, sprayed. Frames sprayed on site with full masking.
5. Reinstall, align, new hardware if chosen, walk-through.

Typical Charlotte kitchen: 4–6 working days, $3,500–$8,500. See the cost guide.

Why Charlotte homeowners pick a small studio over a franchise

• You talk to the person who does the work. Alicia estimates, preps and sprays.
• Furniture painter’s eye: 30+ years of finishing furniture and decorative work, not just walls.
• Smaller overhead than the national painting franchises, so a better finish at a fair price.
• Design help included, from colour to hardware to crown moulding and island panels.

Frequently asked questions

Do you serve all of Charlotte?

We focus on south and east Charlotte (Ballantyne, Blakeney, Piper Glen, Providence, SouthPark, Myers Park, Matthews, Mint Hill) because we are based in Monroe. For full kitchens we travel to north Charlotte, Huntersville and Concord too.

Is painting cabinets worth it in Charlotte's housing market?

Yes. Painted cabinets are one of the highest-return updates before a sale, and Charlotte buyers expect white or light kitchens. A $5,000 paint job frequently replaces a $25,000 cabinet replacement in a listing.

Can you match a colour from a builder or designer?

Yes. Bring the name (e.g. SW 7008 Alabaster) or a sample and we spray a test door.

Do you paint bathroom vanities too?

Yes, often in the same visit as the kitchen at a reduced rate.
