Professional vs DIY: What’s Better for Painting Cabinets?

PaintingCompanyAlbuquerque • February 24, 2020

Lately, DIY home improvement projects have been on the rise, and painting your kitchen cabinets can be a miracle money saver for those looking for a quick, impactful update to their home! While we understand that when it comes to customizing or personalizing your home, many think it’s possible to complete a job on your own, but what might seem like a quick fix can become a huge nightmare if not left to the professionals.

A new coat of paint on your kitchen cabinets can make a world of a difference when wanting to update or freshen up the space – unfortunately it’s not as simple as it may seem! Don’t skimp on quality or on the time it will take to get your kitchen cabinets done right! Here is why you should hire professionals such as Mike’s Quality Painting in Albuquerque, Santa Fe, or Rio Rancho to paint your cabinets.

 

Time

To ensure that any job is done properly, you have to commit the right amount of time to it. Painting cabinets takes patience and careful planning to make certain you get a clean outcome! Our experienced crew dedicates the time to make sure it’s right the first time.

 

Tools

It would be a big mistake to choose a lovely paint color for your cabinets only to find out you didn’t choose the right type! Ideally, kitchen cabinets require a sturdier paint such as a semi-gloss or satin, that will hold up against frequent cleanings, abrasions, and grease. At Mike’s Quality Painting, we have the right paint to keep your cabinets looking fresh for years to come, and many other specialty tools to make sure you are 100% satisfied!

 

Expertise

With our years of experience, we know how to pay attention to detail. Professionals can provide the expertise and advice that you may not have on a certain project! We have the right techniques to help your kitchen come together the first time, and when we leave we will clean up to make it look like we were never there! We can also provide you with color palette choices if you are unsure on what may look best.

 

Call Albuquerque’s painting experts at Mike’s Quality Painting to learn more about our process and to schedule an appointment for updating your kitchen cabinets! We’ll ensure the job is done quickly, professionally, and beautifully!
