FAQs About Transforming Your Kitchen with Wood Cabinets Painted White

Question 1

1) How do I choose the right shade of white?

Accepted Answer

The primary goal when painting wooden cabinets in a bright hue like white is finding the perfect balance between too warm or cool toned shades. It's always best to try on different whites in person rather than relying solely on internet snapshots since hues appear differently depending on interior lighting and surrounding colors.

Question 2

2) Is painting my existing wood cabinets possible?

Accepted Answer

While replacing old cabinetry entirely might seem like an excellent idea, it would cost much more than just giving them a fresh coat of paint - especially since older solid wood drawer fronts tend to last longer.

Question 3

3) Will paint peel off over time from constant cooking/washing/natural wear-and-tear?

Accepted Answer

You should worry less about such concerns as long as qualified painters/contractors handle everything properly! As part of proper prepwork for re-doing any cabinet fronts (birch plywood used), we always sand all surfaces beforehand!

Question 4

4) Are custom made-to-order cabinets necessary?

Accepted Answer

Not necessarily! Most homeowners save money by purchasing affordable pieces online from big companies specializing in ready-made quality real-wood doors sold separately without costly consulting/design fees involved.

Question 5

5) Can DIY installation work usually accompany these projects with satisfying results?

Accepted Answer

Although inexperienced homeowners might think they're expert enough at handling their own contractor-like duties regarding their home renovation ambitions, seasoned contractors can actually speed up the process (depending on how busy they are) and offer services which you'll be pleased with in favor of a higher-quality topcoat finish.
