Kitchen Cabinet Painting Services
Spray-Painted Doors
Cabinet doors are sprayed for a smooth, factory-finish appearance. Spray painting gives a more consistent, durable finish than brush application on cabinet doors.
We remove doors from hinges, spray them in a dedicated spray booth or with mobile spray equipment, and reinstall them once dry. Spray painting creates a flat or satin finish with no visible brushstrokes.
Solid Wood Cabinet Preparation
Solid wood cabinets require careful degreasing and sanding before priming. We remove grease buildup, sand surfaces to accept primer, and apply the correct primer for wood.
Solid wood cabinets benefit from a stain or coloured topcoat that emphasises the wood grain and character.
MDF Cabinet Preparation
MDF carcasses and doors are common in modern kitchens. MDF needs a different primer than solid wood because it absorbs paint differently.
We apply a specialist MDF primer before topcoats. MDF cabinets accept any colour finish and provide a smooth, even surface for paint.
Colour Selection
Cabinet colour choice affects the entire kitchen feel. Light colours make small kitchens feel larger.
Dark colours create drama and formality. We advise on colour selection during the site visit.
Many clients choose to keep cabinet carcasses neutral and add colour through accessories or a feature wall.
Cabinet Painting versus Replacement
Cabinet painting costs significantly less than replacing cabinets but can transform the kitchen. We discuss pros and cons of painting versus replacement during the consultation.
Painting is best when carcasses and hardware are sound. Replacement is needed if carcasses are damaged or hardware is broken.

Here’s How It Works
1. Site assessment.
We visit and assess cabinet condition, material type (solid wood or MDF), and existing finish. We note any damage or hardware issues.
2. Door removal and preparation.
Doors are removed and numbered for reinstallation. All doors and carcasses are degreased. Solid wood is sanded. MDF is cleaned and assessed for damage.
3. Priming.
Specialist primer is applied to all surfaces. Solid wood gets wood primer. MDF gets MDF-specific primer. Hinges and hardware are masked and protected.
4. Topcoat application.
Cabinet doors are spray-painted for a smooth, factory finish. Carcasses are brush-painted with the same colour. Multiple coats are applied as needed.
5. Reassembly and finishing.
Once dry, doors are rehung and hardware is checked. Any touch-ups are completed before the kitchen is handed back.
Kitchen Cabinet Painting Costs in Worthing
Cost Factors
Prices below are estimates only. Every kitchen is different. Call 01903 497335 for a precise quote.
Full kitchen cabinet painting typically costs between £1,300 and £1,900, depending on the number of cabinet doors and surface condition.
Three things drive the price:
Number of doors. More cabinet doors and drawers mean more preparation and painting. A 12-15 door kitchen costs less than a 20-25 door kitchen.
Surface condition. Grease buildup and poor previous finishes require extra degreasing time. Clean cabinets are quicker to prepare.
Finish complexity. Solid colour finishes are standard. Two-tone finishes (different colours on upper and lower cabinets) cost more.
Trade insight. East Worthing buy-to-let kitchens often have significant grease buildup from years of tenant cooking. Proper degreasing is essential and adds to preparation time.
Typical ranges:
Standard kitchen cabinet repaint (12-15 doors, solid colour): £1,300 to £1,700.
Larger kitchen cabinet repaint (18-25 doors, two-tone finish): £1,800 to £2,400.
Full kitchen including carcasses and worktop area (all surfaces, complete kitchen refresh): £2,000 to £3,200.
For a full interior repaint that includes the kitchen walls and all other rooms, see our interior painting page. Kitchen cabinet painting often forms part of a larger home renovation project. We can coordinate the full schedule.
