Cabinet Refinishing in Pompano Beach, FL
Kitchen and bathroom cabinets in Pompano Beach take a beating from cooking steam, daily humidity, and the kind of heat that warps cheaper materials over time — and replacing them entirely can run tens of thousands of dollars. KB Painting & Refinishing offers professional cabinet refinishing throughout Pompano Beach, restoring the look of your cabinets at a fraction of replacement cost.
Local insight
In Pompano Beach's older ranch homes in Old Pompano and Crystal Lake, original wood cabinets often have good bones but tired, peeling, or yellowed finishes; refinishing gives them a decade or more of new life without a gut renovation.
Cabinet refinishing in Pompano Beach
Cabinet refinishing is one of the highest-return projects a Pompano Beach homeowner can do before listing a property or simply to refresh a dated kitchen. Done right, it looks like new cabinetry — done wrong, it peels within a year. The difference is almost entirely in the preparation.
KB Painting removes all cabinet doors and drawer fronts, takes them off-site (or works in a controlled environment on larger jobs), degreses every surface thoroughly, sands to bare wood or scuffs existing coating for proper adhesion, and applies a dedicated cabinet primer before topcoating. We use Sherwin-Williams Emerald Urethane Trim Enamel — a water-based formula with exceptional hardness that resists grease, fingerprints, and the kind of daily contact that kitchen cabinets see. It dries to a factory-smooth finish that roller-applied paint can’t match.
What’s included
All hardware is removed and reinstalled. We fill dings and scratches before priming. Box interiors and frames can be included for an additional quote. The finished project includes KB’s six-month workmanship warranty on cabinet work, covering adhesion failures and peeling not caused by water damage from a plumbing issue.
Questions Pompano Beach homeowners ask
Q: Can my Pompano Beach condo’s kitchen cabinets be refinished if the unit is occupied?
A: Yes, with some planning. We schedule door and drawer work off-site to minimize disruption, and we time box and frame coats for evenings or weekends if needed. We use low-VOC Sherwin-Williams products, so fumes are manageable — though we do recommend ventilating the kitchen while coats dry. We’ll walk through the schedule with you at the estimate so there are no surprises.
Q: My cabinet doors have water damage at the bottom from the dishwasher. Can those be saved?
A: It depends on the extent of the damage. Superficial swelling or delamination at the edges can often be stabilized, filled, and primed to an acceptable result. If the MDF core is severely compromised, replacement doors paired with refinishing the remaining boxes is usually the better call — and we’ll tell you that honestly at the estimate rather than refinish something that won’t hold.

Common questions
What factors affect the cost of cabinet refinishing in South Florida?
The main variables are door and drawer count, the condition of the existing finish, and whether you're changing colors. Kitchens with heavy grease buildup — common in Florida's year-round cooking climate — require extra cleaning and deglossing, which adds prep time. We provide a free written estimate after a walk-through so there are no surprises before we start.
How long will a spray-applied cabinet finish hold up in a Florida home?
With proper prep and the right Sherwin-Williams products, a spray-applied finish typically lasts five or more years even with South Florida's humidity and daily kitchen use. Our six-month workmanship warranty covers adhesion or finish failures in that window. The key is thorough surface prep — skipping steps is where most finishes fail early.
How long does the project take and do we need to leave the house?
Most single-kitchen jobs run two to three days: one day for cleaning, deglossing, and priming; one for topcoats; and a short cure window before doors go back on hardware. We seal off the work area with plastic so the rest of the house stays livable. You'll just want to keep the kitchen light during cure time — no cooking or heavy steam until the finish has hardened.
