Kitchen Cabinet Painting Services
Spray-Painted Doors
Spray painting produces a factory-smooth finish without brush marks. It is the preferred method for cabinet doors.
Your decorator removes all doors and drawer fronts, sprays in a controlled environment, and rehangs when cured. On-site spraying creates overspray risk on worktops and appliances.
Solid Wood vs MDF Cabinets
Solid wood doors have open grain needing filling for a smooth finish. Your decorator applies grain filler and sands between coats.
MDF doors need a different primer system. MDF edges are absorbent and chip easily without correct primer, and skipping this step produces chipping within months.
Colour Selection
Cabinet colour changes the entire feel of a kitchen. Lighter colours open smaller spaces. Deeper tones suit larger kitchens.
Mixing island and perimeter colours creates a two-tone effect. Your decorator advises on colour choices and supplies sample boards before painting.
Cabinet Painting vs Replacement
New kitchen units cost £8,000 to £20,000 or more. Cabinet painting achieves a comparable result at a fraction of the cost.
Carcass condition before quoting is assessed. See our interior painting page for full room transformation projects.
Worktops and Carcasses
Cabinet faces and visible carcass ends are included as standard. Your decorator paints exposed carcass ends to match the door colour.
A consistent finish across all surfaces produces the professional result.

Here’s How It Works
1. Kitchen Assessment
Your decorator inspects cabinet doors, drawer fronts, carcasses, and hinges. Your decorator advises on any repairs needed before work begins.
2. Door and Drawer Removal
All doors and drawer fronts are removed and labelled. Hinge positions are photographed for accurate rehanging.
3. Surface Preparation
Doors are cleaned, degreased, and prepared. MDF edges receive MDF-specific primer. All surfaces are sanded between stages.
4. Spray Application
Doors are sprayed in a controlled environment. Two finish coats are standard. Doors are hung only after full cure.
5. Rehanging and Adjustment
Doors are rehung in their original positions and adjusted for alignment, leaving the kitchen fully functional.

Kitchen Cabinet Painting Costs in Hereford
Prices below are estimates only. Every kitchen is different. Call 01432 805377 for a precise quote.


Door and Drawer Count
A larger Holmer kitchen with 15 doors costs more than a smaller semi. Each unit needs individual preparation and spraying.
Cabinet Material
MDF needs an additional primer stage. Solid wood needs grain filling. Both add preparation time and cost.
Finish Type
A standard satin finish is the most economical option. A high-gloss lacquer requires more preparation and additional coats.
Trade insight: MDF-fronted kitchens from the 1990s and 2000s in Holmer have exposed edges that chip easily. Correct primer separates a finish that lasts from one that fails.
Typical Price Ranges
- Smaller kitchen (8–10 doors, Tupsley semi): £1,100 to £1,700
- Medium kitchen (12–15 doors, Holmer detached): £1,400 to £2,200
- Larger kitchen or two-tone finish (15–20 doors): £1,800 to £2,800
