Cabinet Painting That Refreshes and Preserves What You Already Have

Repainting your cabinets is one of the most innovative ways to update the look of your space without the cost or complexity of a remodel. Whether it's a kitchen, bathroom, hallway, or built-in, Grey Wolf Painting delivers clean, durable results that make your cabinetry look brand new. We use high-quality products, professional tools, and a preparation-first process that ensures long-term performance. Our crew is small, experienced, and focused on doing the job right, not rushing through it.

A Local Painting Contractor Built on Care and Craft

Grey Wolf Painting is a family-run company that’s been serving homeowners since 2016. We’ve built our reputation on clear communication, consistent work, and finishes that stand the test of time.

Our painters aren’t subcontractors or strangers rotating through a roster. We’re the same people from the estimate to the final walkthrough. You’ll work directly with us, and we’ll walk you through every step. There’s no confusion, no last-minute surprises, and no disappearing act after the job begins.

Why Clients Hire Us for Cabinet Painting

Cabinet painting is a specialty, not an add-on. Here’s what sets our approach apart:

  • We use cabinet-specific primers and coatings for smooth, long-lasting results

  • Surfaces are properly sanded, cleaned, and prepared before any paint is applied

  • Your home stays clean and protected throughout the process

  • We help you to find  colors and sheens that fit your space and style

  • Every project ends with a walk-through to make sure you’re fully satisfied

We don’t just paint cabinets; we restore them with the level of detail they deserve.

What We Do Differently from Other Painters

We’ve seen the shortcuts others take: spraying over dirty wood, skipping sanding, using interior wall paint that chips within months. We take a different path:

  • No wall paint on cabinets; only high-adhesion, moisture-resistant coatings.

  • No guessing with dry times or coverage; we follow a clear system.

  • No generic crews; just a small team that takes pride in every finish.

If we’re in your home, we treat it like it’s our own. You get a clean, organized worksite and a final result that feels built-in, not brushed on.

Our Finish Options and Materials

Not all cabinet paints are created equal. We use products designed for the job and guide you through options that fit your space.

  • Cabinet-Grade Paints: These are designed to bond, cure properly, and resist water, oil, and heat

  • Color Options: Choose from timeless whites, deep tones, soft neutrals, or something bold

  • Finish Choices: Satin and semi-gloss are popular for their durability and easy cleaning

  • Low-VOC Options: Available for homeowners who prefer a safer, low-odor solution

Every surface is treated with care, utilizing high-adhesion primers and multiple coats to achieve a clean, consistent look that withstands everyday use.

How to Know If Painting Is Right for Your Cabinets

Are you unsure if your cabinets are a good fit for repainting? Here’s a quick guide:

  • They’re structurally solid with no water damage or warping

  • You like the current layout and don’t need to rebuild

  • You want a visual upgrade without replacing everything

  • You need a durable finish that holds up to daily use

If your cabinets meet these conditions, painting is often the smartest move. We’ll confirm this during your estimate and discuss your goals in detail.

What You Can Expect After the Paint Dries

Your cabinets won’t just look better; they’ll feel better. Once everything is dry and cured, you’ll have:

  • Smooth doors and drawer faces that close cleanly

  • A fresh, even color that complements your lighting and design

  • Surfaces that wipe clean without smearing or sticking

  • A finish that holds up to use and resists chipping
