Should You Paint or Replace Your Kitchen Cabinets?

Ready to give your kitchen a new look? Now you just need to decide the best way to do it…
On the one hand, you could remodel, but you know what that involves: mess, expense, and knocking your kitchen out of commission for a long, long time. We’re not saying it’s the wrong option, but there’s a lot to consider.
On the other hand, you could paint those kitchen cabinets. You’ve seen the pics on Instagram and Pinterest, and know that the right coat of paint can make a tremendous difference. Especially when it’s applied by the right painter with real cabinet painting expertise and experience.
So, how do you know which way to go? Here’s a little insight.
You Should Remodel Your Kitchen If…
- You need to make major design changes
- You’re reworking the layout or configuration
- More needs to be updated than cabinets, like the floor, backsplash, or countertops
- You need more from your kitchen; maybe a larger layout or open concept?
- Your cabinets aren’t worth painting, either because they’re the wrong material type or maybe aren’t in good condition
In other words, a full kitchen remodel is in order if you need to make larger-scale, structural changes. Starting from scratch? Remodeling is the way to go.
You Should Repaint Your Kitchen Cabinets If…
- Your kitchen works for you, but just needs an update
- Your cabinets are good quality
- Your cabinets are in good condition overall
- You love the idea of an update within a week, rather than months

As we mentioned above, just be sure you find a painting company that has a proven track record and reputable services. Cabinet painting needs to be done correctly for the best results, with a finish quality that looks awesome and can stand up to a busy, demanding kitchen space.
