Cabinets and built-ins
We repaint kitchen and bathroom cabinets, shelving and built-in units. Cabinets get handled and cleaned more than any wall, so the prep matters even more here.
- Hardware comes off and is kept together for refitting
- Surfaces are degreased, then sanded to give the paint something to grip
- Bare or patched spots are primed before the finish coats
- The room being worked on is affected while the work is under way; other rooms stay usable where possible
Color sampling
Painted sample patches or boards so you can judge colors in your own light before committing. A color that looks right on a small chip can read darker, warmer or flatter across a whole wall.
Ask for sampling when you are choosing between a few close colors, or when a room gets very different light through the day. Choose "Sampling would help" in the enquiry form and we will plan it with you at the estimate visit.
