Bantu Painting
Kitchen Cabinet Painting & Refinishing in Davis, CA
A brand-new kitchen look for a fraction of the cost of replacing cabinets.
Refinishing your existing cabinets is the highest-impact, best-value upgrade in most Davis kitchens. Instead of tearing out solid boxes, we transform them with a durable, factory-smooth finish that stands up to daily use.
The secret is in the prep: proper degreasing, sanding, and priming are what separate a finish that lasts from one that chips in a year. We take the time to do it right.
How cabinet refinishing works
Every cabinet project follows a disciplined process for a smooth, durable finish:
- Label and remove doors, drawers, and hardware
- Degrease every surface to strip cooking residue that ruins adhesion
- Sand and prime with a bonding primer built for cabinets
- Fill grain and imperfections for a smooth base where desired
- Spray or fine-finish two coats of a hard, washable enamel
- Reinstall doors and hardware and adjust for clean alignment
Colors and finishes
Classic whites and off-whites, warm neutrals, or a bold island color — we'll help you choose a finish and sheen that fits your kitchen and holds up to scrubbing.
Typical investment
Cabinet projects in Davis typically run $2,500–$5,000, depending on door and drawer count and finish.
