Cabinet Refinishing in Wellington, FL
Wellington kitchens in communities like Greenview Shores and Binks Estates often feature large, well-built cabinet layouts that are structurally sound but dated in color or finish — and refinishing them costs a fraction of replacement while delivering a result that looks brand new. KB Painting & Refinishing refinishes kitchen and bathroom cabinets with a multi-step spray process using Sherwin-Williams cabinet-specific coatings.
Local insight
Wellington's high humidity means cabinet coatings need to be moisture-resistant and properly cured before daily use — we use a catalyzed finish and observe full cure times before reassembly so your doors don't stick or cloud in South Florida's climate.
Cabinet refinishing in Wellington
Replacing kitchen cabinets in a Wellington home is a major project — weeks of disruption, contractor coordination, and a bill that often runs five figures before appliances or countertops come into the picture. Refinishing the cabinets you already have achieves a comparable visual transformation in a few days at roughly 20 percent of the cost.
This approach is especially popular in established Wellington neighborhoods like Greenview Shores and Palm Beach Polo Club, where homes were built with solid wood or MDF cabinet boxes that are still in excellent structural condition but carry a finish from a decade or two ago.
Our cabinet refinishing process
We remove all doors, drawer fronts, and hardware before any work begins. Surfaces are cleaned, deglossed, and sanded — this is where most DIY attempts fail, because skipping or rushing prep leads to finish adhesion problems within months. We apply primer, sand again, then spray the finish coats in a controlled environment to avoid the dust nibs and brush marks you get with roller application.
We use Sherwin-Williams Emerald Urethane Trim Enamel for most cabinet work — a catalyzed finish that cures hard, resists moisture, and holds up to the daily wear a kitchen cabinet takes.
All cabinet refinishing by KB Painting & Refinishing is covered by a six-month workmanship warranty.
Questions Wellington homeowners ask
Will refinished cabinets hold up in Wellington’s humidity? Yes, provided the right product is used and it’s given adequate cure time. We use a moisture-resistant catalyzed enamel rather than a standard latex, and we allow full cure before reinstalling hardware and doors. A properly refinished cabinet in Wellington will typically last eight to twelve years before it needs attention again.
Can you change the color completely, or only do minor refreshes? We can take your cabinets from any color to any other — including dramatic changes like going from honey oak to a modern white or sage. The prep process is the same regardless of the color change magnitude, so don’t feel limited to staying close to your existing finish. We bring Sherwin-Williams fan decks and can show you how specific colors will read in your kitchen’s light.

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.
