Kitchen cabinet painting is one of the highest-value decorating upgrades for North London homes when doors and carcasses are sound but tired. Done properly, it delivers a factory-smooth colour change without the cost and waste of full replacement.
What decides success
Degreasing, chip repair, correct primers, and durable cabinet coatings matter more than the final colour choice. Paint over grease fails — every time.
Where we deliver
We regularly spray or hand-finish kitchens in Hampstead, West Hampstead, Belsize Park, Swiss Cottage, St John’s Wood, Highgate, Maida Vale, and Golders Green. Apartment kitchens may use off-site door spraying to reduce downtime and dust.
Budget guide
Compact kitchens often start around £1,500–£3,200; standard family kitchens £2,800–£5,500; large high-spec spray programmes higher. Survey confirms unit count and system.
